Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory | |
Purpose: | The laboratory is used for plant tissue culture studies to aid in the PNRI's mutation induction projects. Tissue culture activities, coupled with radiosensitivity studies, are being done for micropropagation, rapid mass propagation, vegetative multiplication as well as embryo culture of fruit and ornamental crops. |

Plant Mutation Breeding laboratory | |
Purpose: |
Overall processing of seeds, from harvest time up to the next planting season, is undertaken in this laboratory. The seeds that are processed include the PNRI-developed mutant varieties of rice, soybean, mungbean and seeds of fruit crops being studied for mutation breeding such as cashew. Gathering of data and pre-germination test of the seeds are also undertaken in this laboratory. |
