We operate comprehensive platforms for stable integrative transformation, CRISPR-based genome editing, and regeneration of engineered events across diverse plant species. Capabilities include method and technology development for customized collaborative projects; i.e. exploratory projects, new species or cultivar, new protocols, , vector preparation, delivery optimization, and molecular validation. Greenhouse and growth chambers support full lifecycle evaluation.
