New insight on the physical interactions that take place between swarming bacteria when exposed to antibiotics could lead to novel approaches for treating infections in patients.

As Temperatures rise due to global warming the need to protect plants from stressful conditions has increased, as stress can cause a loss in yield and cause further impact economically. A consortium led by the University of ÌÇÐÄTV have successfully identified two proteins that protect crops from stress, which is key in safeguarding food production.

The University of ÌÇÐÄTV’s research commercialisation wing, ÌÇÐÄTV Innovations, has signed a contract with agronomy specialist Agrii to promote the commercial production of UK haricot beans developed by scientists at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV.

An international team of scientists working at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV, UK, and Monash University, Australia, have determined the molecular basis of a biological mechanism that could enable more efficient and cost-effective production of existing antibiotics, and also allow scientists to uncover new antibiotics in soil bacteria.

ÌÇÐÄTV joins forces with leading UK universities to focus agricultural research where it can make most difference on the ground

Researchers at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV have uncovered the mechanism that allows plants to pass on their ‘memories’ to offspring, which results in growth and developmental defects.
