Comparative analysis of genetic diversity and differentiation of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis) accessions from two ex situ genebanks. [PDF]
Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis) is an important vegetable crop for human nutrition. We characterized 192 cauliflower accessions from the USDA and IPK genebanks with genotyping by sequencing (GBS). They originated from 26 different countries

Genetic Analyses of Seed Longevity in Capsicum annuum L. in Cold Storage Conditions
Seed longevity is the most important trait in the genebank management system. No seed can remain infinitely viable. There are 1241 accessions of Capsicum annuum L. available at the German Federal ex situ genebank at IPK Gatersleben. C.

Scaling up orphan crop research: genebank genetics highlight geographic structure in cultivated cowpea from 10 617 global accessions. [PDF]
SUMMARY Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. is a dryland legume crop, providing essential food and nutritional security for millions of people across the semi‐arid tropics, in Africa, Asia and Latin America. However, as a typical ‘orphan crop’, cowpea has long remained underrepresented in global genomic research to support crop improvement. Here, we conducted

The conservation of crop genetic resources, including their wild relatives, is of utmost importance for the future of mankind. Most crops produce orthodox seeds and can, therefore, be stored in seed genebanks. However, this is not an option for crops and

Indian plant germplasm on the global platter: an analysis.
Food security is a global concern amongst scientists, researchers and policy makers. No country is self-sufficient to address food security issues independently as almost all countries are inter-dependent for availability of plant genetic resources (PGR)
