NBPGR’s genebank dashboard takes a bow

Good to hear ((From our moles in New Delhi.)) that the National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources in India has a new online “dashboard” summarizing data from its genebank, one of the largest in the world. ((Though notice the mismatch between the total numbers of accessions on the dashboard and on WIEWS.))

There is a separate PGR Portal for searching the collection, though apparently only on basic characterization data so far. Except for wheat, that is, where you can search for a long list of phenotypic characters.

Clearly lots of work going on lately at NBPGR on getting their data out there. But when will we see them on Genesys?
