Seeds of Discovery Infographic

The Seeds of Discovery (SeeD) initiative works to unlock and utilize novel genetic diversity held in genebanks to accelerate the development of maize and wheat varieties to meet the demands of a growing population in a changing climate. By characterizing the genetic makeup of maize and wheat collections, SeeD has generated “fingerprints” describing the diversity of two of humankind’s major food crops. To multiply the impacts of these results, SeeD has created a “genetic resources utilization platform” for breeders and researchers, made up of publicly available data and software tools.
