Expected results:
- Data of over 70% of the European ex situ conserved germplasm will
be on-line accessible in a single database. This European Inventory (EURISCO)
will provide, together with SINGER (germplasm conserved by the CGIAR) and
GRIN (germplasm conserved in the US and Canada), access to most germplasm
held ex situ in the world.
- Many European countries will have their National PGR Inventory
established, or in the process of being established
- Collaboration between European genebanks and the Clearing House
Mechanism of the Convention on Biological Diversity will be established.
Furthermore, the capacity to manage PGR documentation and information
systems will be increased.
