José Manuel Lucas, CEO of Genoma Laboratorio, accompanied by Alfonso Lucas, founding partner, attended the second edition of the Citrus Forum congress, organized by Agromarketing, which took place at the Valencia Conference Center on May 28, 29, and 30, 2024.
This year's Citrus Forum, with more than 1,500 registered participants and three days of presentations, was undoubtedly a resounding success. More than 50 speakers actively contributed to the event's tremendous success. Knowledge, information, and data were provided that are key to helping citrus growers successfully tackle the tasks their crops require.
Genoma Laboratorio had the opportunity to actively participate in the event with a presentation on citrus thrips, in addition to moderating several sessions and a panel discussion. Furthermore, for Genoma Laboratorio, it was a highly valuable event that allowed us to establish contacts with numerous companies in the sector. Some of them have expressed their willingness and commitment to working with this laboratory immediately.
In a constant commitment to the quality and reliability of its results, Genoma Laboratorio is on the verge of obtaining ISO 17025 accreditation for molecular analysis of phytopathogens, specifically accrediting the detection of Citrus Tristeza Virus using real-time RT-PCR. This makes us one of the first laboratories in the country to have this accreditation for Plant Health analysis.
