Using "neutron rays" with a high mutation rate! The time required to obtain the desired traits is significantly shortened.
"Speedy Breeding" is a service that allows for variety improvement in a "short period and at low cost" compared to conventional radiation. Additionally, to further accelerate and enhance the efficiency of variety improvement, it is also possible to combine genome editing and EMS (chemical mutagen) treatments. Please consider this service for the development of varieties that are resistant to high-temperature damage due to climate change and global warming, as well as for the development of commercial varieties and high-yield varieties. 【Features】 ■ Allows for variety improvement in a "short period and at low cost" compared to conventional radiation ■ Combination with genome editing and EMS (chemical mutagen) treatments is also possible *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Company information
Starting as a private company initiated by local volunteers under the proposal of the Ibaraki University Graduate School of Science and Engineering, we aim to develop a new technological domain that is globally competitive through collaboration between radiation-related facilities concentrated in Ibaraki Prefecture and the vibrant agriculture in the region. Our goal is to commercialize the use of neutrons for crop improvement, which, while considered effective among experts, had not been socially implemented, thereby contributing to the realization of a sustainable society. We have conducted repeated demonstration experiments, enabling the generation of dynamic and large quantities of mutants that were previously unattainable. In 2020, we patented the technology for generating mutagens using neutrons, and we are currently providing solutions not only for crop improvement in agriculture but also as a useful technology for the development of industrial microorganisms, catering to companies and research institutions engaged in biological breeding and variety development.
