Students from Dublin Coffman High School’s Environmental Science class visited the OPGC on February 25 for a behind-the-scenes look at how plant genetic resources are conserved for the future. During the tour, students explored several aspects of germplasm conservation, including using bumblebees for seed production, seed cleaning and x-ray technology, and plant propagation through tissue culture. The visit also included hands-on activities—students potted pelargonium cuttings and received a pot of Begonia grandis to take home.
