Quality control laboratories

The goal of the quality control laboratories is to ensure that our customers receive the quality of seeds that they require.

Three main criteria for seed quality are measured and controlled by the laboratories :

- Germination
- Control of seed borne pathogens
- Trueness to type.
Laboratory for germination
The aim is to evaluate the germination potential of any seed lot according to ISTA rules (International Seed Testing Association).
Pathology laboratory
- Detection of the possible presence of pathogens on seeds.
- Evaluation of hybrid purity by means of sanitary resistance tests.
Molecular analysis laboratory
- Verification of trueness to type of a given lot.
- Evaluation of the hybrid purity by means of molecular markers or biochemical markers.
