Breeding

IVS can assist plant breeders in the creation of the exciting new plant varieties. Keeping a good record of the genomic selection, crop physiology, resilience and phenotyping are important to reliably predict the promise of a new plant genotype.

An inventory of barcoded mother material allows for the source material to be linked to the newly produced breeding crosses. Accurate records are kept in the software of parental crosses made, with family tree traceability that can assist in the necessary evaluations performed to determine the success of newly designed breeds.
