Biological Species Identification

Biological Species Identification

The precise identification of biological species is pivotal for understanding and conserving biodiversity. Our company provides specialized identification services tailored to the unique characteristics of gymnosperms, angiosperms, bacteria, and fungi, employing a combination of traditional taxonomy and modern molecular techniques.
