Predictive Association between Trait Data and Ecogeographic Data for Nordic Barley Landraces
Focused Identification of Germplasm (FIGS) is a new method to select plant genetic resources for the improvement of food crops. Traditional cultivars (landraces) and crop wild relatives (CWR) provide a valuable source for novel alleles in crop improvement programs, but conserved landraces and CWR often lack important documentation. Genebank collections
