Adjustment of tests for tomato and pepper seeds for the Australian market

Publicationdate: 16 januari 2024

Naktuinbouw Laboratories recently received a notification from the Australian government that Naktuinbouw's protocols for direct seed testing by real-time RT-PCR for ToBRFV, ToMMV and Pospiviroids have been approved for tomato and pepper.

What does this mean for you?

By recognizing our test protocols, as of January 1th, 2024, a switch will be made from a 50 sub-samples with 400 seeds test to 20 sub-samples with 1,000 seeds. As a result, the efficiency in testing can be increased and the lead time for the customer can be shortened.
