Ensure the continuity of your business, no matter what, by guaranteeing your valuable cultivars are protected and available whenever you need them.
Regeneration: This is the process of pathogen remediation. We eliminate harmful pathogens from your plants, restoring them to their original vigor.
Preservation: We store your clean, regenerated cultivars in our secure laboratory, ensuring they remain healthy and accessible whenever you need them.
Once the process is complete, the regenerated plantlets are exclusively yours for future production, research, or breeding projects. Successful initiation into tissue culture takes between 4 and 7 months, depending on the cultivar, after which they can be preserved and maintained indefinitely.
In traditional vegetative propagation, clonal plants naturally experience diminished performance over time due to the accumulation of pathogens like intracellular bacteria, fungi, viruses, and viroids. This degradation isn't new to agriculture and horticulture; industries ranging from strawberries to bamboo have adopted plant tissue culture technologies to combat this issue.
Key Benefits
Restore Original Vigor: Eliminate years of accumulated pathogens and restore your cultivars to their prime state.
Protect Valuable Genetics: Safeguard your high-value cultivars for ongoing production and breeding purposes.
Peace of Mind: With off-site storage, you can rest easy knowing your clean-stock material is secure and ready whenever you need it.
Our best-in-class quality assurance practices ensure that no pathogens are detected before plantlets are shipped back to you. Utilizing both in-house and third-party tests, Segra screens for a broad panel of known cannabis plant pathogens, including but not limited to:
• Hop Latent Viroid (HLVd)
• Hop Stunt Viroid
• Tomato Bushy Stunt Virus
• Beet Curly Top Virus
• Tobacco Streak Virus
• Lettuce Chlorosis Virus
• Botrytis cinerea
• Phytophthora infestans
• Sclerotinia sclerotiorum
• Fusarium oxysporum
Our DNA fingerprinting technology allows for extensive internal auditing of plant batches, minimizing any risk of cultivar mix-ups. Every cultivar submitted is fingerprinted upon arrival and assigned a unique Variety Identification Code. Additionally, every order shipped from our facilities is fingerprinted to ensure the correct cultivar is provided to you every time.
We extract true apical meristems from your mother plants—a process that offers the highest probability of pathogen remediation. The true apical meristem is essentially “floating” and not attached to the plant’s vascular system, insulating it from pathogen contamination, including viruses and viroids. This regeneration process takes between 4–7 months, depending on the cultivar.
Segra’s preservation services allow for the indefinite storage of your cultivars in our secure laboratory environment. Off-site storage provides you with the ultimate peace of mind that clean-stock material can be called into production at any time. We maintain a minimum of 50 aseptic shootlets for any cultivar in this program. You’ll also have access to Segra’s online dashboard for real-time updates on your preserved cultivars.depending on the cultivar.
Keep your next grow cycle clean and healthy by ordering mother plants from your preserved stock. This ensures that your production starts with the highest quality plants, free from pathogens and true to their genetic identity.
