1 COMMERCIALIZATION FROM A R AND D PROJECT- THE YAYASAN SABAH EXPERIENCE DOREEN K S GOH dorngoh@hotmail.com Bio-Borneo 2013 Conference February 20 th 2013 Magellan Sutera Resort

2 Started as a R & D PROJECT between the FORESTRY DIVISION of CIRAD and SABAH FOUNDATION GROUP in Tawau in 1992 on three large-caned rattan species

3 Shifted to TEAK & ACACIAs, focusing on selected genotypes with outstanding qualities

4 Teak is one of the most prized high value timber worldwide, but natural resources are dramatically shrinking due to overharvesting caused by increasing market demand

5 Introduction of Explants for in vitro culture Plantation Establishment Collection of young branches and shoots from selected tree TISSUE CULTURE PROCESS OF TEAK Shoot development from responsive explants Multiplication of plantlets Elongation and Rooting stage

6 Developed optimal protocol leads to- High multiplication rate that is simple and costefficient Possibility of introducing and mass multiplying any selected genotypes (clones) regardless of ortet age Ensure homogenous growth and more predictable yield for plantation establishment

7 Ex-vitro Acclimatization in the MISTING NURSERY Rooting of tissue culture plantlets 3 weeks after ex-vitro transfer WEANING PHASE HARDENING NURSERY Survival rates of more than 90% observed under given nursery conditions

8 FIELD PERFORMANCE TRIALS AT LOCAL LEVEL Brumas, Tawau Taliwas, Lahad Datu -Peripheral planting at oil palm plantations

9 Distinctive characteristics of the 8 commercial clones (Solomon Island Origin) OTHER ORIGINS Traits of fast growth, minimal branching, and bole straightness, absence of early flowering SOLOMON ISLAND ORIGIN showing high heartwood to sapwood ratio at age 7 years

10 ADVANCED RESEARCH ACTIVITIES WITH CIRAD Destructive/plank sampling Non-destructive/core sampling WOOD AND DNA ANALYSIS (FINGERPRINTING) FOR QUALITY CONTROL, CERTIFICATION AND MARKETING PURPOSES

11

12 SUCCESS OF in vitro PROPAGATION DUE TO COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION OF TEAK PLANTLETS 1. Optimal protocol - High multiplication rate, simple and cost-efficient 2. Possibility of introducing and mass multiplying any selected genotypes (clones) regardless of ortet age - Ensure homogenous growth for plantation establishment 3. Allows the delivery of plants to overseas markets - Benefit of a phytosanitary certification overcoming quarantine Annual production capacity of laboratory is about millions plantlets restrictions

13 EMBARKING ON THE COMMERCIAL PATH..

14 PRODUCT BRANDING REGISTRATION OF TRADE MARK IN MALAYSIA AND AUSTRALIA (LARGEST BUYER)

15 Worldwide exportation of R

16 Queensland, Australia (exports between ) COSTA RICA INDONESIA 7 yr-old: H: 20.5 m, DBH: 25.4 cm and clear bole length of 17.5 m.

17 BRAZIL(Mato Grosso) Comparison between clonal and seedling materials FROM SEEDS CLONES

18 WEST JAVA, INDONESIA clones and local ones were derived Cijati, West Java - Planted between December 2008 to April Age ~3 yrs: Av DBH - 9 to 12 cm - Av Height 10 to 12 m.

19 MEXICO 11 month-old teak trees from seeds (left) and from clones (right) in Tabasco province, Mexico, showing uniformity and straightness of clones. Growth conditions under 2000 mm rainfall concentrated in the months of August and September; uneven distribution may again induce lateral branching

20 TEAK PRODUCTS: LARGEST & MOST DIVERSE COLLECTION OF TEAK GENETICS 1. TISSUE CULTURE PLANTLETS 2. FIELD-READY PLANTS FOR LOCAL MARKETS 3. QUALITY SEEDS FROM TEAK TRIALS 4. GERMPLASM ACCESSION TO TEAK GENETICS FROM DIFFERENT ORIGINS

21 OTHER AVAILABLE/POTENTIAL TC PRODUCTS : Fast-growing industrial tree species Acacia hybrids (A. mangium X A. auriculiformis), Abyssia, A. mangium/crassicarpa Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis) Indigenous Orchids Tiger Orchid (Grammatophylum speciosum ) and Moon Orchid (Phalaenopsis amabilis)

22 THANK YOU

They are large trees, growing to m tall, deciduous in the dry season

They are large trees, growing to m tall, deciduous in the dry season TEAK Teak (Tectona grandis), is a genus of Tropical Hard wood trees in the family Verbinaceae, native to the south and southeast of Asia. They are large trees, growing to 30-40 m tall, deciduous in the
