Ploidy & Genomics®
Focuses its efforts on the development of plant varieties with specific biochemical profiles and enhanced levels of secondary metabolites.
“Since the beginning of the agriculture, humans have developed a process of domestication of the different plant species by selecting and reproducing the specimens that best adapted to their needs, giving shape to what we know today as plant genetic improvement.”
