INIA-CRF (CSIC) Plant genetic resources for agriculture and food active collection

Description :

 The mission of the CRF is to contribute to preserve and sustainably use of genetic diversity of native plant varieties and neglected old varieties. Thus, the CRF conserves and uses landraces, crop wild relatives and other species that are no-longer-used but which have genetic potential value for food and agriculture, making available the heritage of Spanish agrobiodiversity, which is key for Agrofood Innovation as well as for the fulfilment of the environmental objectives of sustainable development.  The term Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (PGRFA) refers to this group of materials. One of the main CRF's functions is the Conservation and Characterization of an important part of this diversity such are the Active Collections of Winter Cereals (wheat, barley, rye, avena) and Grain Legumes (chickpea, lentils, vetch, common bean) and some industrial crops (sunflower, cotton). At July 2022 that collections were composed by 22626 accessions identified by passport data established following the FAO/Biodiversity Multicrop Passport Descriptors including: identification code in holding institution, taxonomic information and common and local name, data of the collection site, biological status, acquisition sources and storage condition. More information about this collection and a template to request this material are available at www.bancocrf.inia.es.
