Grapevine Genetics and Genomics

The research group started with the beginning of the research activities at the ICVV in January 2009. At present, three staff scientist are members of the group, in addition to one staff technicians. The rest of the group members is maintained thanks to the public calls for personnel formation, or hired using funds from national and international research project or contracts. Our group uses genetic and genomic tools and resources to study the reproductive development in grapevine, aiming to generate useful information to increase quality in grape production and grapevine breeding.
