Biotalys/Novozymes partner for Evoca’s development

摘要

Belgian biologicals company Biotalys (Ghent) and Danish biotechnology company Novozymes (Copenhagen) have agreed a partnership to expand opportunities for the former’s first protein-based biofungicide, Evoca. Evoca is targeted for use by fruit and vegetable growers to combat major diseases and extend shelf life. The biofungicide was developed as BioFun-1, and trialled for the control of grey mould (Botrytis cinerea), and powdery mildew in multiple crops and regions.
