The European Perennial Medicago database is maintained by the Groupe d’Etude et de Contrôle des Variétés et des Semences (GEVES). The GEVES coordinates the French national network on fodder crops genetic resources with the BRG (Genetic Resources Board), the INRA (National Research for Agronomy Institute) and the ACVF (Fodder crops Breeders Association). The Medicago database contains passport data on 2888 accessions of 32 taxa (1948 accessions for Medicago sativa) stored in 23 European genebanks. The whole database includes: cultivar and breeder's lines (1497), primitive cultivars and landraces (505), natural and semi-natural ecotypes (474) and unrecorded status accessions (412). The database is accessible through a raw table, 'MEDICAGO.dbf,992 Ko'.
