TSU Strengthens Research Collaboration with TAU Through New Joint Biodiversity Projects

The Tarlac State University (TSU), through its Office of University Research Development, has reaffirmed its strong research partnership with Tarlac Agricultural University (TAU) as it advances three major biodiversity and conservation projects under an approved Memorandum of Agreements.

In a formal communication dated October 29, 2025, TSU expressed its continued commitment to collaborative research efforts, particularly with the College of Agriculture and Forestry (CAF) of TAU. The initiative highlights the shared goals of both institutions to generate scientific knowledge, strengthen biodiversity conservation, and advance environmental stewardship in Tarlac Province.

The following research projects will be implemented jointly:

1. Water Quality and Plant Diversity Analysis on the Longitudinal Riparian Zone of Camiling River
2. DNA Barcoding and Phylogenetic Analysis of Different Macrofungi from Mt. Damas, San Clemente, Tarlac, Based on ITS nrDNA Region
3. Morphological and Molecular Identification, and Ex Situ Conservation of Endemic Plants from Mt. Damas, San Clemente, Tarlac

TAU–TSU Joint Research Initiative Launches Field Data Collection for Camiling River Water Quality and Plant Diversity Study

Researchers from Tarlac Agricultural University (TAU) and Tarlac State University (TSU) carried out field data collection for the study “Water Quality and Plant Diversity Analysis on the Longitudinal Riparian Zone of Camiling River” on November 13–14, 2025. The activity is part of the ongoing TAU–TSU Joint Research Initiative, which supports collaborative studies on local environmental conditions and biodiversity.

During the two-day survey, the team collected water quality measurements, including pH, turbidity, temperature, and dissolved oxygen, at selected points along the river. They also documented riparian plant species, their abundance, and general vegetation characteristics. Additional observations on land use, habitat conditions, and other environmental factors were recorded to support the overall assessment.

Technical support for the fieldwork was provided by the TAU-CAF-Department of Forestry, represented by Mileatte P. Omaney, RPF, Maidas L. Anson, RPF, and Christian O. Llait, RPF. Their assistance helped ensure that sampling procedures and documentation were carried out properly.

This activity is one of the joint research efforts of TAU and TSU aimed at gathering baseline information useful for environmental planning and monitoring in the Camiling River area. The team will next conduct follow-up data collections, laboratory analysis and verify plant species collected during the fieldwork. Findings from the study will be compiled and shared with concerned offices to help support future planning.
