About
We have expertise in plant tissue culture, cryopreservation, and plant genetic resources, with a focus on long-term conservation and sustainable use of plant diversity.
Our work includes micropropagation, anther culture, doubled haploid production, mutation breeding–based variety development, and cryopreservation techniques used in genebank activities. We are a public R&D institute hosting one of Türkiye’s national genebanks, with laboratory facilities and experienced research staff.
Within MSCA Staff Exchanges, we are open to hosting and sending researchers (including early-career and postdoctoral researchers). We are interested in joint research activities, protocol development, and knowledge exchange with international partners working on plant biotechnology and genetic resources conservation.
