Mission
The mission of the National Germplasm Repository at Davis, California is to collect, preserve, evaluate, and distribute the genetic resources of the crops assigned to us as part of the US National Genetic Resources Program. These resources are preserved by us to ensure that these species will be available for future generations and to support research efforts in variety development and other areas of plant research.
