International Congress on Biosolutions
From 23 to 26 September 2025, COST MiCropBiomes members attended the International Congress on Biosolutions, organized by BioV (Le Réseau Francophone d’Étude des Biosolutions Agricoles pour la Production Végétale) with COST MiCropBiomes (CA22158) and MTR (Réseau Mixte Technologique) Bestim.
Held at the Palais des Congrès in Perpignan, France, the congress presented the latest biosolutions, focusing on mechanisms of action, effectiveness, study methodologies, and practical applications.
The congress included the six following sessions: Biosolutions in the field; Biosolutions modes of action; Combining levers to optimize crop stimulation and protection; Systems and molecular biology, digital tools and AI; Plant-microbiome interactions and (a)biotic stresses, and Management of plant microbiota and integrated strategies. COST members contributed with seven oral presentations and 16 posters (see the abstracts in the attached document) which showcases advancements in designing and optimizing new tools based on plant microbiomes as biosolutions to improve crops.
The COST Action MiCropBiomes was presented through a poster and an oral presentation.
