GCP Workshop on Molecular Markers for Allele Mining
Chennai, India
22 - 26 August 2005

This workshop's goal was to review the progress of various projects, explicate both scientific and managerial issues, provide the SP1 community with the opportunity for internal coordination, and discuss a range of scientific issues and problems with three groups of scientists:

• Colleagues from the System-wide Genetic Resources Program (SGRP), bringing together germplasm bank curators,
• Colleague experts in the fields covered by SP1 and coming from advanced laboratories outside the GCP, and
• Colleagues from various NARS, who are personally involved in SP1-related research fields.

The programme concluded with a general discussion on SP1 and SP5 perspectives, followed by presentations of the viewpoints of germplasm curators, GCP observers, NARS representatives, and the two subprogrammes.
