As **Austria's largest research and technology organisation** for applied research, we are dedicated to make substantial contributions to solving the major challenges of our time, climate change and digitalisation. To achieve our goals, we rely on our specific research, development and technology competencies, which are the basis of our commitment to excellence in all areas. With our open culture of innovation and our motivated, international teams, we are working to position AIT as Austria's leading research institution at the highest international level and to make a positive contribution to the economy and society.

In the coming years, the use of chemical pesticides is to be reduced in order to be able to feed the growing world population while maintaining the same yield. For this reason, biological agents that have fewer side effects on the environment are being sought above all. Biological crop protection methods are based on natural antagonists of pests and pathogens. These can be fungi, bacteria or viruses. Throughout this internship, as part of our **Bioresources** team, you will closely work with our experts and will be mainly looking for bacteria that protect the plant against diseases. Damping off diseases are increasingly a major problem in agriculture, as chemical agents are no longer available due to their environmental problems.
