“The European Cicer database was established in 1996, following the meeting of the ECP/GR, in Copenhagen, Denmark. It is maintained by the National Institute for Agrarian and Veterinarian Research (INIAV). This database contains passport data of cultivated material, breeding material and wild accessions maintained in germplasm collections in European research institutes and genebanks, according to the FAO/IPGRI Multi-Crop Passport Descriptors list. Seed requests should be sent directly to the holding institutes.”
