14 R.S. Ranapromising countries/regions in the world that need to be exploredor approached for introduction of new crops/ genetic variability tosustain our crop improvement programmes.International CollaborationsCollaboration with CGIAR crop"based institutesBesides operating the above mentioned network of activegermplasm sites in the country, the Bureau also actively collaborateswith International Agricultural Research Centres in India andabroad. International Plant Genetic Resources Institute (IPGRI)'has contributed significantly to the Bureau's efforts offeringexpertise, training and research support. NBPGR has also an activecollaboration with ICRISAT on joint exploration and multi-locationevaluation programme on five ICRISAT's mandate crops. This hashelped in documentation of germplasm collections in pearlmillet,sorghum, pigeonpea, chickpea and groundnut. Considerable'exchange of germplasm takes place between NBPGR and IRRI(Philippines), and CIMMYT (Mexico), and ICARDA (Syria).IPGRI's office for Sourth Asia is located, in the NBPGRcampus and there is an active collaboration between them basedon biennial work plans. In addition to supporting joint explorationand collection programme in this region, the IPGRI helps indeveloping training programme in conservation and managementof plant genetic resources designed primarily for the Asian region.Collaborations under Bilateral ProgrammesBesides the International Research Centres, many cou.ntrieshave well developed systems for assemblage, enrichment,documentation and conservation of plant genetic resources andalso have computerized database network. ICAR has Memorandaof Understanding as well as bilateral agreements with several suchinternational organizations and national programmes. Exchangeof plant genetic resources activities is carried out through NBPGRwith over 80 countries.Global responsibility for PGRFollowing an assessment of the gene bank standards,infrastrudural facilities and trained manpower available at NBPGR,the Bureau has been identified for responsibility of global and
Conservation of Plant Genetic Resources in India 15regional base collections of more than a dozen crops. The firstInternational Okra Workshop was organized at NBPGR in 1990under the sponsorship of IPGRI. Besides the IPGRI experts,representatives from Belgium, France, Brazil, China, India,Indonesia, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Papua New Guinea, Philippines,Senegal, Sri Lanka, Sudan and USA participated in the deliberations.An International Workshop on Sesame Genetic Resources wasorganized at Nagpur and at NBPGR Regional Station, Akola(Maharashtra) in 1993.INDO~US PGR ProjectThe Indian National Plant Genetic Resources Programme(IN-PGRP) has gained substantially from the PGR systemsadopted by leading nations in this field yet it has not whollyadopted any of their models. India is panistakingly developingits own indigenous system taking full advantage of its inherentadvantages and incorporating suitable features that have beenevolved over a long period of time by repeated trials in developedcountries. NBPGR is currently operating a 9 years INDO-USProject on Plant Genetic Resources with a budget provision of 27.95million US dollars. This project is being implemented to enhanceNBPGR's national capability and also to enhance its role at theregional and international levels.NBPGR'S National Information SystemThe Bureau is gradually strengthening its computerizeddata-base to back up conservation of genetic resources for not onlyimmediate utilization of already conserved and evaluated/characterized germplasm in the ongoing plant breeding programmesbut also meeting needs of future generations. Success of both theseactivities is dependent upon the availability of descriptive andevaluation information on accessions stored in the gene bank.National database system gathers all relevant data from diversesources that are required by user scientists. Selection ofappropriate descriptors and their descriptor states, softwarecomputer programmes and retrieval system are pre-requisites todevelopment of computerized information on genetic resources.Success of genetic resources database management depends uponeffective cooperation among genetic resources personnel,computer experts and plant breeders/biotechnologists.
