Project conception and structure Propose a long term plan for acquisition, conservation and exchange of plant material for long term conservation of genotypes at national and European level. Limit the redundancy of the germplasm collections. Decrease the number of errors and solve problems of homonymy and synonymy. Complement different conservation means adapted to different materials and scopes (ex-situ, in-situ, cryoconservation).
