Syndrome “basses richesses” (SBR) increasingly affects sugar beet.
Our PRO-WILD partners from IfZ look for resistant genotypes and use planthoppers to inoculate wild relatives of beet with disease-associated bacteria. 🌱🔎
They currently prepare for new glasshouse trials. Stay tuned for insights!
🌱 Celebrate Fascination of Plants Day on 18 May 2026! Host a workshop, planting session, or community event and explore the wonder of plants — maybe even some crop wild relatives! 🌿 Get started with planning your own event: plantday18may.org/category/eur...

The 2025 session of the ITPGRFA in Lima ended without a decision.
As we work on biodiversity and crop wild relatives, global seed-governance debates like this shape the context for future action.

🌱 A PRO-WILD field trial is underway in Clermont-Ferrand!
In November, around 300 wheat introgression lines from crop wild relatives were sown at INRAE to study grain quality and nutritional traits. Uniform emergence so far — a promising start! 🌾

A few months ago our partner CREA ricerca sent out the first PRO-WILD seed packets.
It's great to see photos and enthusiasm from participants exploring wild & modern wheat 🌾
Stay tuned for the next round of seed packets!
