“…The program carried out by ECPGR "for better use of gene banks and resistance breeding" is part of the "agricultural research programme". The actions have had some success and led to the creation of the EURISCO internet search platform which "serves as a central point of access within a network of national information systems that store and manage data on plant genetic resources" [21]. The awareness from ECPGR that diversity is renewed thanks to in situ and on-farm management, started only in the 2000s in Europe [22].…”

Agroecology calls for a global approach, integrating scientific, practical, and advocacy dimensions, to redesign agricultural systems based on ecological and socio-cultural processes and emphasizing biodiversity. This review is grounded on the results of DIVERSIFOOD, a European H2020 multi-actor research project, and explores the concept of cultivated diversity using various dimensions relevant to foster sustainable organic food systems and agro-ecological transition. From the evaluation of underutilized genetic resources and forgotten crops, DIVERSIFOOD has proposed plant breeding strategies, on-farm experimentation, and statistical tools to create new populations, landraces, and organic cultivars with intra-varietal diversity. The added value of Community Seed Banks and forms of collective seed management in Europe have been described in terms of goals and activities, and their value for improving seed regulations, treaties, and genetic resources management is discussed. In the context of the current agro-food system characterized by standardization, DIVERSIFOOD raised awareness of qualities of ‘biodiverse food systems’ in which all actors have a role to play. It highlighted the critical capacity to preserve a diversity of cultural values embodied in ‘biodiverse products’, thereby involving consumers in collective strategies for reviving diversity, and empowering all actors of organic food systems to really and efficiently implement research within their farms and networks.

“…All passport data are compliant with the Multicrop Passport Descriptors standard -MCPD v.2.1 (Alercia et al, 2015). The passport part of the National inventory of Slovakia is replicated to the global system for plant genetic resources in Europe -EURISCO (Weise et al, 2017). At present, the Slovakian collection in EURISCO catalog represents 17.142 accessions from which 640 accessions are included in the AEGIS system (Engels et al, 2011).…”

“…There is no need to emphasize that such a volume of informally demanding activities could not be effectively managed without a sufficient information system. GRISS acts as a data source for global information systems, such as the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) (Endersen, Knupffer, 2012) or the European Search Catalogue for Plant Genetic Resources (EURISCO) (Faberová, 2010;Weise et al, 2017).…”

Thanks to the support of two projects from European Regional Development Fund of European Union the National Agricultural and Food Centre, Research Institute of Plant Production in Piešťany (Slovak Republic) provides the development and deployment of an information system GRISS designed for complex information management research of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture and to support of management processes accessions of plant genetic resources stored in Genebank according to international principles and in accordance with the National Programme of Conservation of Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture in Slovak Republic. Genebank is responsible for the providing of the Genetic Resources Information System of Slovakia (GRISS). An information system is used through the Web interface used by the curators of collections of plant genetic resources and users from breeder's institutions, universities, public institutions, and others. Currently, the Information System provides passport information on more than 27.000 accessions and more than 23.000 accessions stored in active and basic collection in the Genebank. At present, the Slovakian collection in the European Search Catalogue for Plant Genetic Resources (EURISCO) represents 17.142 accessions from which 640 accessions are included in the European Genebank Integrated System (AEGIS). On request of plant breeders, researchers, but also private persons, the genebank is distributing research material amounting to over 2.000 samples in response to more than 50 individual requests per year. The information system GRISS is freely accessible at http://griss.vurv.sk.

“…Danas u svetu postoji oko 1.300 registrovanih institucija koje su osnovane sa ciljem sakupljanja i čuvanja biljnih genetičkih resursa. Centralna Evropska baza podataka, EURISCO, obezbeđuje informacije za oko 1,8 miliona uzoraka gajenih biljaka koji se čuvaju u oko 400 instituta u 43 zemlje učesnice (Weise et al, 2017).…”

IzvodBiljni genetički resursi su rezervoar genetičke raznovrsnosti i dragocen materijal za stvaranje novih kultivara prilagođenih promenljivim klimatskim uslovima, toleratnih na abiotički stres, štetočine i bolesti i poboljšanog kvaliteta. Ovi resursi obuhvataju raznolikost genetičkog materijala koja se nalazi u sortama, lokalnim populacijama, divljim srodnicima, drugim divljim vrstama, mutantima koji se mogu koristiti za hranu i u poljoprivredi. Njihovo očuvanje i usmereno upravljanje i korišćenje su od posebnog značaja, s obzirom da je modernizacija poljoprivrede dovela do nestanka ili značajnog smanjenja broja autohtonih populacija. U bankama semena, u polju i in vitro se čuva oko 7,4 miliona uzoraka, od čega su oko četvrtina uzorci duplirani u nekoliko kolekcija. Ovo je dopunjeno sa preko 2.500 botaničkih bašta širom sveta gde se uzgaja preko jedne trećine svih poznatih biljnih vrsta i održavaju se važne herbarijumske i karpološke zbirke. Očuvanje biljnih genetičkih resursa je regulisano brojnim međunarodnim i nacionalnim pravnim dokumentima. Biljni genetički resursi mogu da se koriste u oplemenjivanju kao izvor specifičnih gena za razvoj novih varijiteta adaptiranih na nove uslove životne sredine i za proširenje genetičke osnove oplemenjivačkog materijala, kao i u ishrani, prehrambenoj industriji, narodnoj medicini i turizmu.
