🌱 At our Centre for Pacific Crops and Trees #CePaCT we’re strengthening #germplasm conservation through barcoding, improving how accessions are identified, tracked and managed. Rolling out now and expected to be fully operational next year https://t.co/IN2hbUC2iP
This week, SPC’s Centre for Pacific Crops and Trees #CePaCT welcomes Dr Rainer Vollmer from the International Potato Center, Peru, for a 2-day expert mission, strengthening cryopreservation to safeguard Pacific crop diversity, food security & climate resilience. 🌱
🌱 #DidYouKnow? SPC’s Centre for Pacific Crops and Trees (#CePaCT) smashed its 2025 target, 150+ priority crop varieties added (target: 100)! 🥥 52 coconuts from #Samoa, 🌿 17 yams from #Tonga, and 🌱 90 taro from #NewCaledonia, boosting food security & climate resilience.
SPC welcomed @FNUFiji students & staff to CePaCT & the Plant Health Lab in Suva 🇫🇯. They explored crop conservation, clean planting materials & seeds vital for Pacific food security. Vinaka FNU for visiting!

“This biennial meeting is a great opportunity for the Marshall Islands to rejoin and learn about PAPGREN,” says Randon Jack, Chief of Forestry, RMI🇲🇭.
Randon joins 15 Pacific reps in Fiji to strengthen regional action on #PlantGeneticResources.

#PacificAgriculture 🌱 | #DYK? At SPC’s Centre for Pacific Crops and Trees, teams taste crops for science! 🍽️.
Crops conserved in #CePaCT genebank are characterised (recording of their features), which for some includes taste assessment. #FunFactFriday

#PacificAgriculture |💧🌱 You've heard of the term "waterproof", but have you heard of "water-smart"? In crops? #CePaCT examined #taro varieties to identify those with the ability to resist #drought.
It's not magic, it's genetics.

#PacificAgriculture | 🔬 @UniversitySA is in the house!
🧑🔬 Undergrads of the Clinical & Health Sciences unit visited #CePaCT (Centre for Pacific Trees and Crops) facilities. Our researchers introduced them to the #PlantMolecular & the #seed laboratories.
#PacificAgriculture | 🥼 The Pacific Community welcomed delegations of MPs from #Australia, #FrenchPolynesia, #NewCaledonia & #Tonga to tour #CePaCT, our Centre for Pacific Crops & Trees 🧫
🌱 #DYK our genebank has the biggest collection in the world of #taro aroids?
Delighted to have contributed as Program Lead of Genetic Resources at @spc_cps #CePaCT, alongside @JulieSardos and her exceptional team to the banana germplasm collection in the Cook Islands 🍌 #GeneticResources #CookIsland
Hi @promusa_banana @AgroBioDiverse @musalac
@MusaDiversity ITC collection updated with germplasm collected in 2019 from 🇵🇬 🇨🇰 🇼🇸 by @Juliesardos, Gabe Sachter Schmidt, Arshni Shandil @Ghanem_DeG #SPC #SEPAC #NARI #MACookIslands #MAFSamoa
🚨Be careful new menu on MGIS website 🚨
🌴 The future of the Pacific's "Tree of Life", the coconut, is brighter thanks to SPC #CePaCT project Research Technician Ulamila Lutu, who focuses on the tree's genetic diversity. Read Ulamila's science journey in the latest "Research in Focus" feature. https://t.co/cshPAJWiL5
