The ECRPG funded project “Safeguarding of potato onion and garlic crop diversity in North Europe - Baltic region (SafeAlliDiv)”
In 2020 was finished the ECRPG funded project “Safeguarding of potato onion (Allium cepa L. Aggregatum group) and garlic (Allium sativum L.) crop diversity in North Europe - Baltic region (SafeAlliDiv)” where LatHort lead researcher Līga Lepse was the country representative and co-leader of the project.
The Research paper on the results obtained in the frame of the project are recently published in the Journal Genetic Resources and Crop Evaluation: Ruņǵis, D., Leino, M.W., Lepse, L. et al. Genetic characterization of European potato onion (Allium cepa var Aggregatum G. Don) collections. Genet Resour Crop Evol (2020).
The whole set of results obtained in the ECRPG funded project “Safeguarding of potato onion (Allium cepa L. Aggregatum group) and garlic (Allium sativum L.) crop diversity in North Europe - Baltic region (SafeAlliDiv)” are recently published in the Final Activity Report in ECPGR homepage.
