GGCE Software for crop genebanks

GGCE is freely accessible open-source software for managing genebank collections, developed with the needs of every genebank in mind.

Easy to Use

Capture and use data on tablets, mobiles or desktop computers during acquisition, management, monitoring, evaluation, and distribution of germplasm.

Barcode your material

Barcoding the material in your collection enables immediate access to data, reduces errors and saves time. GGCE provides best-practice label templates.

Monitor your collection

GGCE helps you manage all the information you need to monitor your collection and plan for regeneration of material, viability testing, and distribution.

What can GGCE do for you?

Organizing genebank records into a queryable database is a complex task for any genebank data manager. But the real difficulty comes later: new batches of data require constant updating of the database over time.

GGCE is a smart alternative. It enables all genebank staff to conveniently capture and make use of data as they work, from acquisition to management, monitoring, evaluation of material, and distribution to clients. Proper barcoding can make this even easier.

With GGCE, your genebank always has current information about every sample in the collection, allowing you to prioritize activities and better allocate limited resources.
