Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory Our lab has all the necessary equipment and technology to produce over 500 000 plans per year.
Among the most used techniques you can find:
• Meristem propagation
• Embryo isolation
• Development of new protocols to produce new PLANT varieties. Our MAIN FIELDS (CROPS ???) for the moment being are: Orchids, Bananas, and aroids such as Caladium, Spathyphillum, Anthurium, Bromeliads.
PLANT MICROPROPAGATION
Spathiphyllum Multicultures
ORCHID IN VITRO PROPAGATION
We are continously working to produce new hybrids. We produce and collect inmature embryos from the capsule ( fruit) of the orchids, then isolate and grow THEM in PROPER orchid micropropagation media. Our range of orchids are: Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium, Phalaenopsis, and other Costa Rican varieties.
ORNAMENTAL PLANTS & LANDSCAPING
We can help you SHARING information about the right grow procedure s for your plants. We can help you CHOOSING PLANTS for gardening.
BIOPESTICIDES
This is a new Project to develop biopesticides applying benefitial fungus such as:
Trichoderma sp.
Beauveria sp.
Metharizium sp.
At the state of the art, this Project is in its research stage. We hope to have products for gardening application during 2008.
