Good to hear 1 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. 2
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?
- From our moles in New Delhi.
- Though notice the mismatch between the total numbers of accessions on the dashboard and on WIEWS.
