OPTIMIX: design your mixtures!

Wheatamix has identified assembly rules for composing variety mixtures. Some of these rules are now integrated in the OPTIMIX tool!

Mixing varieties remains a thorny problem, due in particular to the lack of available references, and of clear rules based on key variety characteristics.
Through literature reviews, experiments and co-design workshops, Wheatamix has identified assembly rules, particularly for disease resistances. These rules have recently been integrated into an online tool, thanks to the coding made by Timothée Flutre and Emma Forst, with the help of Adrien Falce for internet access.
This tool is in the development phase, still unstable, but we aim to gradually integrate other rules (weed control, quality, lodging...).
