The ISHI seed health tests are used for many purposes, such as preventing pathogens moving from one country to another, to clear lots that are healthy for commercialization and for seed producers to make management decisions. The methods developed follow ISHI best practices, and are reviewed at regular intervals and revised, if found necessary. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the user to check that the most recent version of the method is being applied.

The table below presents all the methods.

Contact the ISF Secretariat if you would like to know more about these methods.
