Trait Mining
The genebank collections worldwide provide the genetic diversity required for plant breeding activities. To access the useful traits the plant breeders most often need to conduct large screening experiments to identify the accessions holding such desired traits. Focused Identification of Germplasm Strategy (FIGS) was proposed as a new approach to assist plant breeders and other genebank users looking for a target trait property. The principles of this new approach is based on finding a link between the target trait property and the ecoclimatic profile at the original collecting location for landraces and wild relatives of the cultivated plants. This thesis provides some of the first experimental evidence to support the FIGS concept. Efficient crop improvement programs and effective plant breeding activities are a high priority to ensur
