The Danish Council for Strategic Research is partner in the ERA-Net EUPHRESCO II from which Danish scientists can seek funding for projects phytosanitary research.
This call will find high quality collaborative transnational research in phytosanitary research. The add is very narrow in scope and has identified three topics for which projects can be funded:
• EPITRIX: Epitrix (flea beetle) species, life cycles and detection method (Danish partners)
• MONOCHAMUS: Monochamus spp., insect vectors of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus (Transnational consortia involving both Danish and Slovenian research partners).
• WOOD CHIP: Diagnostics and risk management for plant health threats in wood chips and bark for bio-energy imported from other continents (Transnational consortia involving both Danish and UK research partners).
The Danish total budget is €500,000. The projects are expected to last for two-three years.
This second call opened May 14, 2013 and the closing date is July 8 2013 at 17:00 CET.
