Samenvatting

The Green Biotechnology research group focusses on the application of molecular breeding/biotechnological tools and also on the development/analysis of new tools, for the breeding of enhanced vegetable crops and ornamental plants. The research group is positioned within Inholland University of Applied Sciences, Life Sciences & Chemistry and serves as a link between the breeding companies and our education of the skilled technicians of tomorrow.
We are working on the development of a method for targeted mutagenesis of plant genomes using the bacterial CRISPR-Cas system. This method greatly enhances the effectiveness and speed by which new crops and plants can be developed
