A natural breakthrough in protecting cereals and field crops

Syngenta and Amoeba SA to develop and commercialize biocontrol solutions for EU and UK

Chassieu, France Basel, Switzerland , Nov. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Amoebas. These single-celled microorganisms are now at the heart of one of agriculture’s latest biological innovation – a bio-fungicide capable of protecting wheat and other cereal crops from crippling fungal diseases that cost global agriculture billions of dollars in annual crop losses and quality.

This new development, made from the lysate of the amoeba Willaertia magna C2c Maky, holds strong potential to advance biological crop protection. In trials, the candidate demonstrated its effectiveness in combating the fungi responsible for these fungal diseases and helped activate the plants’ defence responses. As a next‑generation biological, it is built on a biological active substance and designed to fit modern integrated crop management.  

Syngenta Crop Protection, a global leader in biologicals and other innovative crop protection technologies, and French greentech innovator Amoéba SA, have now signed a Memorandum of Understanding to develop and commercialize groundbreaking biocontrol solutions for the EU and UK markets, focusing on cereals and field crops. The parties plan to negotiate a definitive distribution agreement with a target timeline of spring 2026.This strategic collaboration aims to offer farmers advanced biological solutions that enhance the sustainability of their farming practices, address the challenge of increasing pest resistance to existing products, and offer relief to farmers facing a shrinking toolbox of crop protection technologies.

The initial focus of the partnership will be on combating the main wheat diseases, namely septoria tritici blotch (STB) and yellow rust. These two diseases are among the most economically damaging wheat diseases across Europe and the UK, impacting an estimated 9-12 million hectares of wheat annually. In Germany alone, STB causes yield losses of 5-50% and costs of €1.5 billion annually, while yellow rust can reduce yields by 10-70% and even lead to total crop failure in susceptible varieties, according to recognized industry and academic sources.

Matthew Pickard, Syngenta’s Head of Seedcare and Biologicals for Europe, said: “At Syngenta, we are committed to deliver advanced, effective biological solutions at the cutting edge of science. We’re proud to work with Amoéba to offer nature-inspired solutions that empower farmers in these important markets.”

“We are very pleased with the collaboration with Syngenta, a global leader in agricultural innovation,” affirms Benoit Villers, Chaiman of the Board of Amoéba and Jean-François Doucet, CEO of Amoéba. “This agreement, which should lead to distribution and development partnerships between our two companies, is a major step forward for Amoéba. It gives us the opportunity to combine our scientific expertise with Syngenta’s widely recognised leadership in cereal protection and the marketing of biocontrol solutions. Finally, it perfectly illustrates how collaboration between innovators in the sector can make a difference for farmers while paving the way for broader applications in field crops.”

Founded in 2010, Amoéba has developed a patented biocontrol application based on lysate from the amoeba Willaertia magna, which received the prestigious Bernard Blum Gold Medal in October 2025 as the most promising biocontrol solution worldwide. In June 2025, the active substance received EU approval following EFSA’s scientific assessment and a European Commission decision. Product-specific authorizations are in progress.

Uma inovação natural na proteção de cereais e culturas agrícolas

Syngenta e Amoéba SA vão desenvolver e comercializar soluções de biocontrolo na UE e no Reino Unido

Basileia, Suíça Chassieu, França, Nov. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Uma inovação natural na proteção de cereais e culturas agrícolas

Syngenta e Amoéba SA vão desenvolver e comercializar soluções de biocontrolo na UE e no Reino Unido

As amebas, microrganismos unicelulares, estão hoje no centro de uma das mais recentes inovações biológicas aplicadas à agricultura : um biofungicida capaz de proteger o trigo e outros cereais contra doenças fúngicas devastadoras, responsáveis de perdas anuais de milhares de milhões de dólares em quebras de produção e redução da qualidade das colheitas.

Este novo produto, fabricado a partir do lisado da ameba Willaertia magna C2c Maky, apresenta um forte potencial para fazer evoluir a proteção biológica das culturas. Durante os ensaois realizados, a solução demonstrou eficácia contra os fungos causadores dessas doenças e mostrou capacidade para ativar os mecanismos naturais de defesa das plantas. Trata-se de uma solução biológica de nova geração, desenvolvida a partir de uma substância ativa natural e concebida para se integrar plenamente na gestão agrícola moderna.

Syngenta Crop Protection, líder mundial em biocontrolo e tecnologias inovadoras de proteção das culturas, e Amoéba SA, uma greentech francesa de referência, assinaram um Memorando de Entendimento para desenvolver e comercializar soluções inovadoras de biocontrolo destinadas aos mercados da União Europeia e do Reino Unido, com prioridade para os cereais e as grandes culturas. As duas empresas tencionam concluir um acordo de distribuição definitivo até à primavera de 2026.
Este acordo estratégico pretende oferecer aos agricultores uma nova geração de soluções biológicas que reforcem a sustentabilidade das práticas agrícolas, respondam ao desafio crescente da resistência aos produtos convencionais, e contribuem para facilitar o trabalho dos agricultores, que dispõem de cada vez menos opções para proteger as suas culturas.

Numa primeira fase, o foco incidirá no combate às principais doenças do trigo: a septoriose (STB) e a ferrugem amarela. Ambas estão entre as doenças mais prejudiciais económica­mente para o trigo na Europa e no Reino Unido, afetando anualmente cerca de 9 a 12 milhões de hectares. Só na Alemanha, a STB provoca perdas de rendimento que variam entre 5% e 50% e representa um custo anual de 1,5 mil milhões de euros, enquanto a ferrugem amarela pode reduzir a produção em 10% a 70%, podendo mesmo destruir totalmente as colheitas das variedades suscetíveis, segundo fontes industriais e académicas de referência.

Matthew Pickard, responsável Proteção de sementes e Produtos biológicos da Syngenta na Europa, afirma: « Na Syngenta, estamos empenhados em disponibilizar soluções biológicas de nova geração, eficazes e alinhadas com os mais recentes avanços científicos. É um orgulho colaborar com a Amoéba para desenvolver soluções inspiradas na natureza que tragam verdadeiro valor aos agricultores destes mercados-chave. »

« Estamos muito satisfeitos desta colaboração com a Syngenta, líder mundial em inovação agrícola», acrescentam Benoit Villers, Président do Conselho de administração da Amoéba, e Jean-François Doucet, Diretor-geral da Amoéba. «Este acordo, que deverá conduzir a parcerias de desenvolvimento e distribuição entre as duas empresas, representa uma etapa determinante para a Amoéba. Permite-nos combinar a nossa experiência científica com a reconhecida liderança da Syngenta na proteção dos cereais e no mercado do biocontrolo, abrindo caminho a aplicações mais amplas nas grandes culturas.»

Fundada em 2010, a Amoéba desenvolveu uma solução de biocontrolo patenteada baseada no lisado da amiba Willaertia magna, distinguida com a prestigiada Medalha de ouro Bernard Blum em outubro de 2025 como a solução de biocontrolo mais promissora a nível mundial. Em junho de 2025, a substância ativa recebeu aprovação da UE, após avaliação científica da EFSA e decisão da Comissão Europeia. As autorizações específicas de produto estão atualmente em curso.

HelixAI launches a new agentic operating system to bring the power of autonomous AI to life sciences

HelixAI launches a new agentic operating system to bring the power of autonomous AI to life sciences

PRESS RELEASE

  • New operating system enables scientists to move from copilot to autopilot, unifying diverse in silico, wet lab research and scientists to accelerate innovation
  • Partnerships with NVIDIA, AWS and Sapio Sciences and over 100 in silico tool providers allow access to leading agentic tools with enterprise-grade security, data traceability and compliance
  • HelixAI is led by an AI native team with experience from Astellas, McKinsey &Co, and Causaly, supported by the leading international healthcare investment advisor, GHO Capital

Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA, November 18, 2025 – HelixAI, a life science AI company creating an agentic operating system to transform R&D, launches its first-in-class agentic OS today at the AI Driven Drug Discovery Summit (AIDDD) in Boston, Massachusetts.

The platform is designed to enable life sciences companies to achieve the innovation promise of AI by focusing on insight, not process. AI uptake is at a tipping point in life science R&D organizations, with spending predicted to accelerate from $4 billion in 2025 to $20 billion by 20301. This is already reducing preclinical drug development timelines by up to 40%2 in some instances, and investment in autonomous lab platforms is accelerating sharply.

But scientists are feeling overwhelmed by 300+ R&D AI products and hundreds of open source tools now available in life science R&D3. The volume and speed of innovation creates challenges for biopharma teams to test, scale and implement these tools, often leading to low adoption and inertia among scientists.

HelixAI has created the first agentic operating system which facilitates the straightforward construction of intricate pipelines incorporating open-source tools, commercial products, customer developed agents, scientists input, and laboratories. This system operates as a fully automated pipeline, maintaining complete data traceability for all executed work, including the inputs and outputs of every step.

The HelixAI platform takes the pain out of using multiple tools and agents, autonomously executing advanced in silico workflows and seamlessly integrating these with feedback from in vitro wet laboratory testing, including lab-in-the-loop and closed loop research infrastructure. This turns what’s now a convoluted, multi-step process into a single, efficient and iterative activity to enable scientists to focus on accelerated discovery, ultimately enabling them to get better medicines to market faster.

The HelixAI operating system features enterprise-quality security with full data traceability and compliance, while providing access to world class compute and over 100 embedded tools. This comprehensive capability is enabled through strategic partnerships with NVIDIA, AWS, and Sapio Sciences and an extensive network of partners including Simulations Plus, CCDC, Cadence Molecular Sciences (OpenEye), Optibrium, and DISGENET – all designed to integrate seamlessly with a company’s own R&D agents.

Kevin Cramer, Founder and CEO of HelixAI, commented: “The biopharma industry is investing heavily in powerful in-silico R&D tools that are under-utilized because they’re often too difficult to operate or operate at scale. Biopharma research leaders need a way to connect discovery pipelines and integrate the various agents their teams are building. HelixAI democratizes access to these pipelines and tools for scientists with an agentic operating system that works with unprecedented autonomy, moving life science R&D from copilot to autopilot and allowing teams to focus on innovation.”

“A critical oversight in current practices is the provision of tools to scientists without comprehensive traceability of tool calls, inputs, and outputs. This lack of oversight poses a significant risk of intellectual property issues in the future if left unaddressed. The HelixAI team recognizes these challenges faced by R&D organizations and has engineered an enterprise-ready platform that delivers complete security, data traceability, compliance, and robust compute power. HelixAI is purpose-built for the life sciences sector, designed to simplify AI implementation, thereby enabling teams to substantially scale in silico science for the accelerated delivery of improved therapeutic agents.”

“Democratizing access to AI is a fundamental part of our philosophy at AWS,” added Jason Decker, Data and AI Sales Leader at AWS. “By working with HelixAI, we’re giving life sciences organizations of all sizes access to proven compute infrastructure and advanced AI and analytics capabilities that underpin innovation in research.”
