GeneticsResearchPropagationField trials
Introducing, evaluating and developing horticultural genetics adapted to Pakistan’s growing environments through scientific research, field trials and responsible propagation.
About IGI
Indus Genetics & Innovation is a private-sector horticultural research, genetics, propagation and innovation organisation.
We introduce, scientifically evaluate and support the responsible commercialisation of improved varieties and rootstocks suited to Pakistan’s diverse climates.
About IGIFeatured programme
Cultivars, rootstocks and their combinations are tested across Pakistan’s environments in replicated trials with controls, repeat observations and multi-year monitoring.
Data-driven evaluation
Each observation links through its trial, site and plot to a single plant with its own ID.
Records keep their date, units, method and evidence. IGI reviews them, and approved records are never overwritten.
Research portalResearch locations
LHRProposedPunjab plains, an established horticultural area.
ISBProposedPothohar plateau, in the federal capital area.
HRPProposedHazara foothills, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
+ProposedNorthern valleys and other scientifically suitable sites.
Participation depends on institutional agreements and site readiness. Exact coordinates of sensitive sites are not published.
Genetics, rootstocks and propagation
Mother plants with documented origin, import and quarantine records, and graft compatibility tested in the field.
Grafted plants with a unique ID and a traceable rootstock–scion record.
Layouts, variety and rootstock selection backed by IGI trial evidence.
Researchers record field data, IGI reviews it, and partners see the approved results for their own material.
Findings and updates
Early results are labelled as preliminary, so they are never mistaken for validated conclusions.
Rollout begins with the avocado programme.
UpdateSites are being assessed for readiness and institutional agreement.
Partnership opportunities
Host a trial site, contribute genetic material or co-author research. Partners see the approved results for their own material.
