• Research Skills: 

As an INRAE technician, I am responsible for the assessment and evaluation of new apple and pear varieties and their rootstocks. The DUS tests (Distinctness, Homogeneity and Stability) are necessary in order to obtain the Plant Variety Right (PVR) and/or registration in the French and European catalogues.

To carry out these tests, I am also involved in the managing and maintaining of the apple, pear and rootstock reference collection.
These activities are done in collaboration with GEVES.
