Questions and Answers on Performance Data Evaluation for the Presence of Seed with Specified Trait(s) in Seed Lots

摘要

Following the decisions taken in Bangkok to introduce testing for the presence of seeds with specified trait(s) in seed lots (Chapter 8 of the Rules), ISTA has established a performance data evaluation document for use if the performance based approach is to be used. This document describes the requirements which will be needed for a laboratory to demonstrate its performance for the method for which ISTA accreditation is being sought. The information will be used by the ISTA auditors as a component of the accreditation process. The document has been available on the ISTA Website since July 2005.
