Distributing germplasm

Making healthy and viable plant material available to clients is a key objective of any genebank. GGCE allows for recording incoming requests for material from both external clients (for distribution) and internal use (for regeneration, monitoring, etc.) and supports technicians in fulfilling these requests. Maintaining a database of request records allows for tracking past distributions, understanding your clients and monitoring trends of which types of materials are requested, when, and by whom.

Genesys is commonly used to provide public access to accession data and enables users to request genebank material online. GGCE seamlessly integrates with Genesys. It retrieves and displays request information and allows the genebank to queue requests from Genesys into the pipeline.
