GoodBerry

The GoodBerry research project focuses on the improvement of strategically important berry fruit crops, namely strawberry, raspberry, and blackcurrant. The project is based on a multi-tiered strategy interlinking research areas from molecular studies to cultivation techniques.

GoodBerry aims at:

• identifying berry germplasm exhibiting an advantageous balance of production vs nutritional quality throughout the EU
• developing innovative production systems/ modern breeding strategies to maintain high yield in a range of European-wide environments and standardized and reliable analytical tools to evaluate berry production and fruit quality
• ensuring the uptake of the high quality production systems by EU growers to boost the competiveness of the European berry production
