Advanced resistance testing monitoring service

SynTech is now offering expanded laboratory, glasshouse and field testing capabilities for detecting and monitoring resistance and cross-resistance to agrochemicals. The service now includes characterization of molecular and physiological resistance mechanisms in weeds, pests and diseases.

Herbicide Resistance Screening

The company's unique expertise and large weed seed collection, including groups 1, 2, 9, 10, 22 populations or biotypes, now allows testing of pre- and post-emergence herbicides in greenhouse and field trials.

These include micro-plots for testing small amounts of new candidates on resistant grass and broadleaf weeds.

Insecticide and Fungicide Resistance Screening

The company's programs cover method development and validation services to assess efficacy of compounds against a wide range of targets. These allow selection of new molecules for dose-response studies through to advanced greenhouse trials.
