Genective, a joint venture between Limagrain and KWS, dedicated to the development of transgenic traits, and AgBiome, a leader in the discovery and development of new technology from microbes, announced today a strategic partnership to accelerate commercialization of coleopteran and lepidopteran resistant transgenic traits with unique modes of action.
