Description |
The university department of virology has a strong team and the reach experience in designing of viral drugs for control of bacterial diseases of cultural plants. Bacterial diseases cause significant losses in plant agriculture and floriculture. The major mean for control of bacterial infections of plants lies in the use of anti-bactericidal compounds (antibiotics). Recent European legislation bans the use of the antibiotics in agriculture in most European countries. Viruses of bacteria (bacteriophages) are the alternative perspective way of biological protection of plants. The Department of Virology of the University has 20 years of experience of dealing with viruses of plant pathogenic bacteria – potential agents for biocontrol of bacterial diseases of major crops cultivated in Ukraine. The university proposes to adapt the virus-based drugs against bacterial infections of sugar beet, cabbage, carrot, fruit cultures, etc. The university is interested in establishing long term cooperation with potential partners (manufacturers of agricultural products and ornamental crops, service of quarantine and plant protection, hothouse farms) in a form of subcontracting services and of long-term technical cooperation. |
