CGIAR Research Program on Rice. 2020. Revised mini-core collection of 350 O. glaberrima accessions that captured 97% of the SNP (single nucleotide polymorphisms) and most of the observed genetic variation, created. Reported in Rice Annual Report 2020. Innovations.

In 2020, 951 more accessions were genotyped , increasing the number of O. glaberrima accessions genotyped to 3,130, and the number of polymorphic markers to 9,990 SNPs. With the current dataset, the mini-core was revised and the revised list captured 98.5% of the SNP polymorphisms
