Abstract |
The genotypic data provide unifying information across landraces, acting as a common backbone to which other valuable information can be added. This knowledge framework serves as a catalogue enabling germplasm bank users to select products to meet their needs.The molecular atlas is a knowledge and information platform that brings these data resources and associated tools together. Similar to satellite navigation systems in a car, the molecular atlas enables navigation through a framework of complex data to help move eectively from a genetic diversity need to a potential solution. The atlas facilitates unparalleled access to the vast range of unused diversity available on germplasm bank shelves – crucial diversity for the development of nutritious, climate change responsivevarieties of the future. |
