Tissue Culture Research & Development Lab
The Research & Development laboratory, which is part of the Virology & Biotechnology division, can provide a number of specialised services for Breeders.
Located within a security guarded Government Institute, the safe keeping of plant material is achieved through restricted access, vetted personnel and coded "need to know only" information.

Projects include:
- Disease Indexing of varieties to ensure they are free from Viruses before production takes place
- Mutation breeding using irradiation and other chemical mutagenic agents
- Gene Manipulation technology for introduction of specific, targeted characteristics such as disease resistance, frost and drought tolerance
Tissue Culture Production Lab
The newly built head laboratory is also located within a security guarded Government Institute, the safe keeping of plant material is achieved through restricted access, vetted personnel and coded "need to know only" information.
With a production capacity of 10 million in vitro plants at the head laboratory and another 20 million within satellite Government operations, we currently have a maximum capacity of 30 million TC plants and the ability to spread the genetics amongst the facilities.
