The DivSeek International Thematic Hub for Genomic technology to democratize and empower the conservation and use of genetic resources <\/strong>aims to foster an international community of practice of peers working in genomic characterization of genetic resources, sharing scientific experience, knowledge of resources and advice on germplasm characterization and use by leveraging the existing platform and partnerships of The Seeds of Discovery (SeeD)- a 10 year old platform focused on the characterization and use of maize and wheat genetic resources for the benefit of farmers, consumers and food processors by facilitating access to infrastructure, tools and capacity building resources<\/p>\n

Co-leads: Carolina Sansaloni; C\u00e9sar Petroli and Sarah Hearne, CIMMYT<\/p>\n
