In a significant milestone marking the culmination of their academic journey, fourth-year BS Biology majors specializing in biotechnology have successfully propagated moss and subsequently transplanted it into a glass container on April 18, 2024. Through the collaborative efforts of these students—Ms. Psyraine Rose Manriquez, Ms. Shane Elijah Gatmen, Ms. Cezanne Paula Lucero, and Mr. Julius Yecyec—they have concluded their final day of observation for their thesis, which focuses on the in vitro gametophyte propagation of Entodon sp., a medicinal moss plant, utilizing various indigenous media. Under the guidance of their dedicated thesis adviser, Dr. Lesley Casas Lubos, this accomplishment stands as a testament to their hard work, dedication, and passion for scientific inquiry.

The potential therapeutic applications of this moss have sparked curiosity, particularly in the realm of biotechnology where innovative approaches to cultivation and propagation are constantly sought after. By incorporating indigenous media, the research aims to establish sustainable practices that can be adapted and implemented in diverse ecological contexts.

The Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory expresses its sincere gratitude to the university administration, specifically President Dr. Joy M. Mirasol, for her steadfast support and motivation.

We express our appreciation to VPAA, Dr. Hazel Jean M. Abejuela, for her continuous guidance and assistance.

Our thanks also go to VPAF Mr. Dante S. Victoria Jr., VPREI Dr. Carina Joane V. Barroso, VPCASSS Dr. Lincoln V. Tan. VPAF, Dr. Maribel G. Valdez, CAS Dean, Ms. Desiree Christine C. Arbutante, Chair of the Natural Sciences Department, and the entire top management for their invaluable support.
