The John Innes (JI) Pisum
Collection (http://www.jic.ac.uk/GERMPLAS/pisum/)
holds one of the widest and most comprehensive sets of
It comprises 3030 accessions, representing
In 1993 the Collection became the international genetic stocks centre for the species in collaboration with the Nordic Gene Bank.
The genetic stocks are maintained within the main collection.
Other important subcomponents of the collection include a set of 30 pairs of rogue
and initial lines, 3 public Recombinant Inbred Line (RIL) populations and a set of host differentials for a range of pea diseases.
A further resource was generated as part of the TEGERM project to develop a set of
Retrotransposon-Based Insertion Polymorphism (RBIP)
markers and screen the JI
These samples (TG lines) are clearly derived from the initial accession and are expected to be more homozygous then the initial sample from which they were derived. These samples are utilised where accompanying genotype data could be of value and directly relate to the genotype data in the GERMINATE Pea project.
Data from the GLIP project can now be viewed online. Genotypes and array images are available for viewing and download.
