The Institute for Sustainable Horticulture (ISH) at Kwantlen Polytechnic University will partner with Inocucor Technologies Inc. to explore the mode of action and interaction with native soil microbes of their novel microbial product Synergro, in propagation of high bush blueberries. ISH brings its experience with microbial bioproducts and horticultural crops and its long association with the blueberry industry, the major berry crop in British Columbia. Inocucor's microbial product has demonstrated growth promotion activity on a number of crops, but little is known about effects on an existing microbial population or the effects of an existing population on the efficacy of the product. This study will compare the growth promotion value of Inocucor's original Synergro product and a new cell free formulation, with and without one common soil fungus (Trichoderma) and a native mix of microbes commonly found in healthy soil or used in biopesticide products. Increasing numbers of new microbial products are reaching the market with little study of these interactions. This project will give Inocucor valuable information on their products interaction with native soil microbes while determining its value to high bush blueberry propagation. This project will benefit Inocucor and the BC blueberry growers with local information about a potentially valuable bioproduct. Kwantlen will benefit from expanding its ability to support companies developing environmentally protective bioproducts while carrying out relevant research for a major industry in its region, and training students and new grads in a dynamic area of new horticultural technology. **

昆特伦理工大学可持续园艺研究所（ISH）将与Inocucor Technologies Inc.合作。探索其新型微生物产品Synergro在高灌木蓝莓繁殖中的作用模式及其与原生土壤微生物的相互作用。ISH带来了它在微生物产品和园艺作物方面的经验，以及它与不列颠哥伦比亚省主要浆果作物蓝莓产业的长期联系。Inocucor的微生物产品已证明对许多作物具有生长促进活性，但对现有微生物种群的影响或现有种群对产品功效的影响知之甚少。这项研究将比较Inocucor的原始Synergro产品和新的无细胞配方的生长促进价值，有和没有一种常见的土壤真菌（木霉）和健康土壤中常见的或用于生物农药产品的微生物的天然混合物。越来越多的新微生物产品进入市场，但对这些相互作用的研究很少。该项目将为Inocucor提供有关其产品与原生土壤微生物相互作用的宝贵信息，同时确定其对高灌木蓝莓繁殖的价值。该项目将使Inocucor和BC蓝莓种植者受益，并提供有关潜在有价值生物产品的当地信息。Kwantlen将受益于扩大其支持公司开发环保生物产品的能力，同时为该地区的主要行业开展相关研究，并在新园艺技术的动态领域培训学生和新毕业生。**
