The NSF Plant Genome Research Program have sponsored a 2 day workshop held in Salt Lake City on April 18-19th, 2017. The workshop brought together 42 scientists associated with more than 20 agricultural databases and supporting respurces to achieve two main goals: (1) Generate a white paper to define key components of genomic, genetic, and breeding (GGB) databases in agriculture; recommend best practices for these components; and identify immediate, future and unmet needs across databases; and (2) Plan a draft of a NSF Research Coordination Network grant to help us continue to coordinate and collaborate across agricultural GGB databases.
