16. Centre for Genetic Resources, the Netherlands WP1: Status summary WP1 is still on schedule Points of attention Increase of content chicory database Uptake of more collections Increase of content minor LV database Uptake of more collections (lamb's lettuce and Rucola) Other minor LVs (asparagus, artichoke and Rheum) Uptake of non-European collections in databases? Project data: delivery by project partners Uptake of accession pictures or links to institutional databases? Safety duplication: status reports and realization by partners
