Bioheuris develops Herbicide-resistant Crops

Founding Year: 2016
Location: Rosario, Argentina
Partner for: Crop Gene Editing

Bioheuris is an Argentine startup that combines synthetic biology and genetic editing to develop herbicide-resistant crops. Herbicides are a solution for weed control but are toxic to plants. So, the startup works on solutions that mix herbicides to avoid repeated use of a single herbicide in fields. Its technology platforms identify mutations and deploy tissue culture and gene editing for reinforcing plant herbicide resistance. The startup also creates herbicide combinations to delay the evolution of weeds resistant to these herbicides. This improves crop life and provides a sustainable management solution for weeds.

Microendo makes Personalized Biofertilizers

Founding Year: 2019
Location: Zapopan, Mexico
Partner for: Sustainable Agrochemicals

Mexican startup Microendo synthesizes personalized biofertilizers. It identifies the microorganisms living around or inside the plants to create custom organic fertilizers tailored to their needs. This improves plant health as well as restores the original microbiota of the crops. Further, deploying original microbes in the process increases the immunity of crops and reduces the need for other agrochemicals. The startup also offers AgaveProtect, a biofertilizer for Agave plants based on their own microbial population. Farmers use this to protect their crops against bud rot and excess ethylene production that causes plant stress.

ART Lab Solutions improves Cattle Breeding

Founding Year: 2018
Location: Adelaide, Australia
Partner for: In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF)

Australian startup ART Lab Solutions deploys reproductive technologies to improve the quality of cattle. It utilizes research on bull and cow genetics to improve IVF technology for cattle breeding. Its solution includes media formulations that fulfill the metabolic requirements of the cattle oocyte and embryo. Further, it deploys the Ovum Pick Up-IVF (OPU-IVF) technology instead of other technologies like MOET or embryo flushing. This enables the production of more offspring per year, thereby increasing the output and profitability for farmers.

Microbe Plus makes Bio-based Pesticides

Founding Year: 2020
Location: Lublin, Poland
Partner for: DNA Testing

Polish startup Microbe Plus works on a bio-based activator that protects plants from pathogens. It deploys molecular biology techniques like DNA testing to detect the presence of pathogens at an early stage. It also uses DNA testing to determine the potential resistance of pathogens to pesticides. This allows farmers to take a proactive approach to crop protection. Additionally, the startup carefully selects an optimum soil fertilization dosage to provide support to plants in their growing stage. This ensures better crop quality and disease resistance in plants.

BioPrime AgriSolutions advances Plant Tissue Culture

Founding Year: 2016
Location: Pune, India
Partner for: Agri Biologicals, Plant Breeding

Indian startup BioPrime AgriSolutions specializes in the areas of plant tissue culture and agri biologicals. It deploys cell techniques like doubled haploidy, somatic embryogenesis, micropropagation, in-vitro mutagenesis, and more to support plant breeding. Further, it uses plant compounds and plant-associated microbes to create sustainable biologicals. These technologies are based on the plant’s innate ability to respond to unfavorable conditions and the symbiotic relationship between plants and surrounding microbes. The startup, thus, develops a bio-organic and sustainable solution for better crop health, nutrition, and yield.
