Platform GenoSol is part of the Agroecology research unit at INRA Dijon and is a unique structure in Europe. Its missions are organized around three main types of activity: Conservation of Microbial Genetic Resources, a Technical Platform for molecular characterization of the microbial meta genome and an Information System on soil and environmental microbial diversity.
