Step 4

Access rules

Regulations

(ABS/DHS/EU-FRM)

Inventory of what is available

(expertise, collections, facilities, etc)

Identification of what is missing

(expertise, collections, facilities)

Research possibilities

Breeding possibilities

Research needs

Breeding needs

Concordant R&D interest

No or little R&D interest

‘Political’ interest No ‘political’ interest

1. Consortium

• Institutes & people– Up-dated directory of Institutes– Up-dated directory of people – Enlargement? / Restriction?

• Facilities/ equipment– Survey– Database– Access rules

• Breeding activity: who is doing what? • Consortium agreement• SIDB

2. The TBDX database

• A tool to identify genetic material available in the different countries/teams– Basic statistics of what is existing: ‘arguments for’ – Joined research – Joined breeding

• Link all activities• Big effort from all partners for data input• Output for all partners

• Data base content analysis• Access: Extra input / extra output?• Dissemination?• Evolution? : objective: to make it increasingly useful!

3. The joined breeding perspectives? • Which species? • A common space?

– Delineation of breeding zones– Seed transfer– Regulations (ABS/DHS/ FRM…)

• Similar interest/objectives?– Breeding objectives

• Common working tools– Breeding populations– Survey on breeding methodology– Inventory of facilities– Standardised methodology

• Wish to cooperate:– ‘political’issues, Intellectual property, etc

4. Joined conservation actions of genetic

resources?

• A common European patrimony? – Collective responsibility?– ‘Personal’ interests

• Endangered populations:– Identification– + database analysis

• How do we manage?

• What are the possibilities?

Database

5. Mass-propagation and dissemination of FRM: private thing or is there place for some joined work? • Deployment space

– Region of provenances– FRM transfer– Delineation of BZ– Regulations (EU)

• What is propagated? • Propagation techniques

– Generative– Vegetative– Quality control

• Deployment– How? – Are we satisfied with EU-existing selected varieties? – Can we show benefits?

• Any possibilities for joined work?

6. Joined methodological work and research space

• Synthesis– Genetic diversity– Early/indirect selection– Phenotypic selection– Hybridisation– …

• Projected– Species reaction norms– Tree plasticity– Genetic evaluation tool– …
