Monitoring to Anticipate

Living with pests in agroecological systems, with very limited curative treatment options, requires enhanced epidemiological surveillance to adapt control methods and anticipate risks, including a range of approaches to be combined (mathematical, biological, economic, organizational, etc.).

What kind of epidemiological surveillance is needed to better monitor and anticipate current and future changes in pest populations, in relation to major changes (agroecological transition, climate, etc.)? Small Data: how to proceed when data is sparse or very limited? What analysis methods should be developed and how should they be made available? How can we anticipate health crises? Can systematic approaches to crisis anticipation be developed, considering all aspects (biological, economic, organizational, etc.)? Is it possible to create proof-of-concept in one or a few specific situations?

MEMORUST - Construction, forgetting, and re-mobilization of knowledge in plant health: a historical analysis of wheat stem rust in the context of agroecological transition

Know more

The MEMORUST project explores an often-overlooked aspect of agriculture: the historical trajectory of knowledge. Using black rust in wheat as a case study, this interdisciplinary project analyzes how knowledge is constructed, fades away, and is then mobilized once again in the face of emerging health crises.

C3PO - Identification of adaptation and/or resistance strategies based on agronomic, (epi)genetic, and microbial levers to two major pathogens in oilseed rape in the face of climate change

Know more

The C3PO project is an interdisciplinary research initiative launched in 2026. Its goal is to unravel the complex interactions between climate change and winter rapeseed’s susceptibility to its two main biological enemies: Phoma and clubroot.

APHIDS - Phylodynamic analysis of the effect of agricultural landscape diversity and seasonality on the spread of a vector-borne plant virus

Know more

The APHIDS project addresses one of the major challenges in plant health: understanding how plant viruses circulate and persist within constantly changing agricultural landscapes.

Analysis and management of a re-emerging epidemic risk in plant health: survival, dispersion, and recurrence of wheat black rust, at the interface between cultivated and natural compartments

Know more

Reports of Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), the causal agent of stem rust, have recently multiplied in France, raising concerns about the resurgence of this disease, long considered one of the most serious for wheat.

EPICO - Collaborative epidemiological monitoring of stripe rust

Know more

Stripe rust, caused by the biorpic fungus Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici, is one of the most widespread and destructive wheat diseases.
