Based on the Oregon Seed Potato Standards for Micropropagation,our laboratory & greenhouse facilities, records, disease testing results for in vitro mother plants, and greenhouse minituber & plantlets stocks are inspected & certified by the Oregon Seed Certification Service each year.
Oregon's seed potato program is one of the best in the nation and provides rigid lab and field inspection procedures. Limited-Generation growers receive meristem-derived pre-nuclear transplants and minitubers from the Oregon State University Foundation Potato Seed Program. Pre-nuclear lots are increased through the various generations under rigid field sanitation and certification regimes. Generation 5 lots are not eligible for re-certification.
