Mid-term meeting in Guadeloupe

The VaBiome mi-term meeting was held in Guadeloupe from the 22-26th may 2014, hosted by the Guadeloupe National Park.

This meeting allowed to exchange about the results so far obtained in the different work-packages and to plan the rest of the work to be achieved. A visit of the vanilla plantation Vanibel was organised, as well as forest prospecting for the collecting of root tips of Vanilla mexicana for the cytogenetic work (a collaboration with  D. Roques, Cirad Guadeloupe ; M-F. et N. Barré, AGO ; lead by Vabiome partner PNG, D. Silvestre)
