The iGEM scientific meeting about Biotechnology/Synthetic Biology Approaches to Forestry Management aims to bring together the NOVA_LxPortugal team and researchers from all over the country to share and discuss the work being done regarding Pine Wilt Disease, Nematology, Biotechnology, Forestry and Plant Health, among other issues.

NOVA_LxPortugal, supported by ITQB NOVA, is the first, and only, Portuguese team participating in the international SynBio competition iGEM, with project PineNematoFight. Its goal is to control and prevent the spreading of Pine Wilt Disease in Pinus pinaster (maritime pines) using a biocontrol organism, an engineered Pseudomonas putida capable of producing a nematicidal compound.
