Description: 

The success of breeding will depend on our ability to deliver reliable data, information and insights into market segments. CGIAR is preparing to officially launch a genotyping sample submission portal as a step towards these goals.

The shared genotyping services will be the sole entry point for all shared services submissions. This is expected to streamline sample forecasting, logistic management and reduce administrative burden for all users. 

This virtual event will describe the benefits of the portal, how it works, how users can use the tool, and support provided by the Breeding Resources Initiative and Scriptoria.

The event will cover:

  • Introduction 

  • Overview of the tool and system: vision, need, benefits, use

  • Introduction to the scriptoria online system with demonstration 

  • Questions 

To join, check your calendar, or check this page for the link on the day of the event.

We would like to thank all funders who support breeding research through their contributions to the CGIAR Trust Fund and all funders and partners who have supported the work of Excellence in Breeding.
