Tools, models, and databases for making digital sequence information on genetic resources publicly available and accessible: A submission from CGIAR Genebank Accelerator
(Conference Paper, 2025-04-04) CGIAR Genebank Accelerator
This short submission from CGIAR is in response to the call for submissions issued by the CBD Secretariat through Notification 2024-115 (Ref.: SCBD/OES/DC/TS/CGA/KB/91971). CGIAR is developing tools and practices to promote sharing DSI in a transparent and accountable manner. Our observations and recommendations in this paper are based on our experiences and knowledge concerning the use of DSI in agricultural research and development, with a particular focus in this submission on conservation of crop genetic diversity and crop improvement.

Phaseolus germplasm exploration in new Mexico and Arizona, USA, Report Oct 3 - 11, 2024
(Report, 2025-03-05) Debouck, Daniel G; Dohle, S; T, Porch; Pratt, R; Santos, Luis Guillermo
Heat and drought stresses threaten global bean production. Additional genetic resources are needed ingenebanks for future improvement of bean crops through breeding for tolerance. Thesouthwestern Sky Island mountains contain such genetic resources that have not been adequatelycollected nor characterized. Continuing the work done in 2023, a 9-day exploration in 2024 insouthern New Mexico and Arizona for wild teparies and other Phaseolus species resulted in thecollection of herbarium and seed samples of 18 populations of P. acutifolius, one each of P.angustissimus and P. filiformis, two of P. grayanus, three of P. maculatus and three of P. montanus,or 28 populations in total. Samples of nodules and soil of rhizosphere were also collected.Outcomes and ways to improve the exploration endeavors are discussed.
Characterization of finger millet global germplasm diversity panel for grain nutrients content for utilization in biofortification breeding
(Journal Article, 2024-10) Backiyalakshmi, Chinnadurai; Babu, Chakrapani; Deshpande, Santosh; Govindaraj, Mahalingam; Gupta, Rajeev; Sudhagar, Rajaprakasam; Naresh, Dagunapur; Anitha, Seetha; Peerzada, Ovais; Sajja, Sobhan; Singh, Kuldeep; Vetriventhan, Mani
Finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.) is a versatile dryland crop known for its high calcium (Ca) content. Estimating the variability for grain nutrients in diverse germplasm is important for developing biofortified cultivars. A finger millet diversity panel consisting of 310 accessions and four controls was evaluated in two rainy seasons at International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics, Hyderabad, India, to assess variability for grain nutrient content and its association with agronomic traits and identify promising accessions. Inductively coupled plasma optical emission electrometry was used to analyze grain nutrients content, and the protein content was estimated from the total nitrogen content of the finger millet grains using the sulfuric acid–selenium digestion method. Highly significant variability was found for all the grain nutrients and was significantly influenced by the genotype, environment, and their interactions. Grain nutrients showed a significant relationship between the 2 years (R2 = 0.06 for phosphorus to 0.60 for Ca, p ≥ 0.001). A nonsignificant correlation between grain yield and Ca was noticed among accessions within landraces, breeding lines, and accessions from Asia, while this correlation was significantly negative among accessions from Africa and in the entire set. The estimated percent daily values indicated that the consumption of 100 g of finger millet grains could potentially contribute to the recommended dietary allowance of up to 49% Ca, 52% magnesium, 23% protein, 23% iron, and 26% zinc. This study provides valuable insights into the variability in the finger millet germplasm, and identified grain nutrient dense accessions, that could be used in finger millet improvement to develop the biofortified cultivars.
