Despite rapid recent progress, this toolbox is still in its infancy and substantial investments are needed to optimise the methods. Also, the innovation potential is fully exploited only if economic, social, and regulatory drivers coalesce and are accompanied by transparent communication and inclusive stakeholder engagement. A problem facing NGT innovation in Europe is that regulatory uncertainty restricts investment at all levels – research, innovation and scaling up – and the impacts of NGTs, both positive and negative, are not fully assessed. It also remains to be seen if public and stakeholder acceptance of NGT products will enable their application. The consequence is that NGTs do not yet reach their full potential. The research in GeneBEcon has two facets. First, the technical potential is explored by applying gene editing to develop 1) a virus-resistant potato with an industrial tuber starch quality, and 2) microalgae-based production of industrially relevant mycosporin-like amino acids. Second, the risk-regulatory aspects, economic incentives, and social perceptions are investigated. In the latter, comparative analyses are enabled by our approach with two different production systems: open-field agricultural crop and contained-system microalgae. The results will enable technical innovations as well as allow stakeholders (incl researchers, breeders, primary producers, value chain actors, risk assessors and decision makers) to take informed decisions on the safe and responsible use of NGT-derived products. GeneBEcon has a multi-sectoral consortium and the project links to relevant stakeholders through a Stakeholder Advisory Board. This will, through communication and inclusive engagement, enable an improved understanding and awareness of the risks and benefits of NGT-derived products through societal dialogue.

Its vegetative mode of propagation and high economic value foster continuous exchange of living material, long production cycles, and severe losses to microbial diseases during vegetation or storage. This vulnerability is enhanced by the diversity of the production systems into which the crop is grown, and by changes in the geographical distribution of emerging or re-emerging parasites resulting from climate change and seed trade. Developing sustainable potato protection strategies, with low or no pesticide applications, is therefore a major challenge to improve the economic, environmental and human performance of potato production worldwide. The PoH-MED project aims at enhancing the sustainability of potato protection in the Mediterranean area, through three complementary working directions: 1) to infer local adaptations and/or population movements of major potato fungal and bacterial pathogens by unravelling their distribution, polymorphisms and population structures, 2) to develop, and assess non-pesticide control methods (resistant cultivars, plant defense stimulators, agronomic strategies) identified during the project or in earlier collaborative work, and to combine them through a systemic analysis into innovative crop protection strategies, and 3) to disseminate key findings through participatory actions. To reach these goals, PoH-MED federates a multi-faceted consortium involving public research institutions, universities and agricultural high schools, official extension services and growers’ organizations. It will fill major knowledge gaps by providing multidisciplinary data much needed to an adequate understanding of the changes occurring on both sides of the Mediterranean sea in populations of severe potato pathogens, and will disseminate innovative plant protection technologies towards extension services and advanced growers though collaborative demonstration platforms designed and run by end-users themselves, as well as through academic and practical training of undergraduate students by participating institutions.
