Sysmex

00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:10,840
A sustainable food production for our growing world population

3
00:00:11,120 --> 00:00:14,000
requires modern breeding strategies and

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,200
effective quality control procedures for agriculture

5
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,000
and aquaculture.

6
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:26,400
This can be achieved through the production of high quality seeds

7
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,560
and improved yield in plant and seafood farming.

8
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:36,960
An important tool for breeding is the determination of ploidy levels

9
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,800
The ploidy level of an organism is

10
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,280
characterized by the number of chromosomes pairs.

11
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,400
This is specific to each species.

12
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,920
Deviations from regular ploidy levels can have

13
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,880
positive or negative effects on the individual.

14
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,840
An increased number of chromosome sets called polyploidy

15
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,160
can produce faster growing and bigger plants or seafood

16
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,440
or create plants with an increased

17
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:10,240
production of secondary metabolites like essential oils

18
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,520
to get plants with seedless fruits.

19
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,920
Plant breeders produce triploid sterile individuals.

20
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,880
Checking the ploidy levels of such plants

21
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,880
guarantees that only seedless fruits are formed.

22
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,000
Negative effects can be induced by Aneuploidy

23
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,360
characterized by an abnormal number of chromosomes.

24
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,800
Aneuploid plants are often stunted.

25
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,800
This makes checking for Aneuploidy

26
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,760
important in quality control of seed production.

27
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,680
In all these instances

28
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,800
checking ploidy levels helps to improve yield

29
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,840
quality and productivity.

30
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:58,480
So farmers gain more benefits 
with the same amount of investment.
