Plant science. Built to teach, protect, and grow.

Phlo Bio is a plant biotech R&D and education company in Fort Collins, Colorado. We teach hands-on tissue culture, develop tools for pathogen diagnostics, and help growers protect what they build.

Hands-On Plant Tissue Culture

Learn sterile technique, media preparation, and explant culture in a small group workshop led by a plant scientist with over fifteen years of experience. Walk away with cultures you started yourself and the knowledge to continue at home or in the lab.

Cannabis Genetics & Intellectual Property

Cultivar identity is the foundation of IP protection. Phlo Bio works with breeders, license holders, and legal teams to document genetic identity through SNP-based fingerprinting, producing reports designed to hold up in contracts and court.

Hop Latent Viroid Detection

The HLVd qPCR assay and Phlo Punch sampling tool give cannabis operations a reliable, repeatable workflow for detecting HLVd before it moves through a crop.
