Abstract
This report represents work carried out at the Genetic Resources Unit (GRU) of ICARDA in the seasons 1995-96 and 1996-97. During this two-year period, the GRU continued its normal activities of germplasm collection, acquisition, characterization, preliminary evaluation, and in-depth evaluation in collaboration with ICARDA's Germplasm Program (GP) scientists and the NARS. Research on methodology for in situ conservation and other support research also formed an important component of GRU's activity. In addition, further development of documentation of genetic resource holdings, short-term and long-term conservation of germplasm, and distribution of germplasm subsamples to users was also carried out.
