About
Root-focused Plant Breeding
Rootility develops and implements root-focused plant-breeding methods designed to increase crop yields and overall agronomic performance while preserving crop quality. Rootility's selection system improves plants' root traits, improving their access to water and nutrients and resulting in crop tolerance to abiotic stresses such as cold, heat, drought, and soil salinity. The system functions without genetic modification and is applicable to a broad range of crops including tomatoes, sunflowers, peppers, melons, and corn. Rootility was the winner of the 2013 Agrivest competition.
