Italian emergency strategy for fighting illegal poisoning and minimize its impact on bear, wolf and other species (LIFE PLUTO)
Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2019,
Background
The illegal use of poison is one of the main threats to two priority large carnivore species of the Habitats Directive â the brown bear (Ursus arctos) and the wolf (Canis lupus) â as well as to several scavenger raptor species.
Each year in Italy several cases of poisoning are reported, although it is thought these represent only the tip o ...

High-Speed Experimental Fly Vehicles - International (HEXAFLY-INT)
Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2019,
The HEXAFLY-INT project aims to flight test an experimental vehicle above Mach 7 to verify its potential for a high aerodynamic efficiency during a free-flight while guaranteeing a large internal volume. The feasibility for a 3m long vehicle was demonstrated during the European L0 precursor project HEXAFLY. Its realization will now be enabled on an international scale underlining the need for glob ...

Development of improved perennial non-food biomass and bioproduct crops for water stressed environments (WATBIO)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2017,
"The goal of WATBIO is to use the power of next generation sequencing to develop an accelerated route for producing new germplasm with enhanced drought tolerance whilst maintaining biomass productivity and quality in water scarce, marginal environments unsuitable for food crops.This will be achieved for three non-food crops (Populus, Miscanthus and Arundo), suitable for growth on water scarce, mar ...
