Evogene to Collaborate with Vilmorin for Tomato Yield Improvement
Evogene Ltd. announced at the end of May a collaboration with Vilmorin, a French seed breeder and the mother company of 'Hazera Genetics,' to improve yield and yield stability in tomatoes. Under the agreement, Evogene has licensed to Vilmorin the rights to certain genes discovered by Evogene, which have demonstrated improved yield and yield stability in tomatoes. The financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed. Vegetables are the world's most important source of micronutrients and an essential component of the world's food supply. The significant and continuous growth of world population and improvements in quality of life, combined with an on-going loss of land available for farming, has created an immediate and rapidly increasing need for greater output of vegetables. The development and introduction of vegetables with improved yield and yield stability can contribute to both a more sustainable food supply, and greater stability of growers' income. [via]
