Select Planting Material

Overview

The basic requirement for an accession to be considered for characterization planting is the absence of information about the accession, hence, samples newly acquired by the International Rice Genebank usually make it on the list of materials for characterization. Materials from previous characterizations with incomplete morphological and agronomic data are also included in the list, along with accessions which have to be re-characterized to verfiy some traits in question.

The Select Planting Material form allows the user to specify criteria which will dictate the inclusion or exclusion of samples in the list of planting materials. The criteria fields consist of the following: species (O. sativa, O. glaberrima, Wild), age of accessions (old or newly acquired), type of characterization process (for accessions with no description, incomplete description, or for re-characterization), cropyear(s) to be excluded, and additional descriptors such as country of origin, maturity (in days), topography, cultural type, and ecosystem. After the specification of criteria, the list of planting materials is generated by the system.
