What is Fig Seed Collection and Processing at SFGC about?
This document summarizes the process of collecting and processing seeds from fig trees at the Sabah Fig Germplasm Center to establish a seed bank and grow seedlings. Key steps include opportunistically collecting ripe female figs, separating seeds from pulp using sieves and washing, drying seeds on paper, and storing seeds in cryotubes in a freezer for quality control testing including germination trials. The goal is to supply large numbers of fig seedlings for forest restoration work in Sabah.
