German National Evaluation Programme for
Plant Genetic Resources (EVA II)

Overview
→ Development of EVA II
→ Organisational structure
→ Workflow
→ Composition and management of the
testing collection
→ Information system
→ Strength of EVA II
→ Awareness raising
→ Ideas for a global evaluation network
Development of EVA II
→ Situation before EVA II:
• Huge amounts of genebank (observation) and other evaluation data
were collected for various crops, but data from different sources, test-
conditions or different years cannot be compared (random and
fragmented scores, no standard lines, etc.)
→ Objectives of EVA II:
• Establishment of a network for the evaluation of PGR for wheat and
barley
• Improvement of secundary evaluation on disease resistances with
coordinated and collective evaluation with the same methods and
same standards
• Development of a dynamic information system for data acquisition and
assessment
Organisational structure of EVA II
Expert group• Representatives of
• breeding companies
• Association for Promotion of Private Plant Breeding (GFP)
• scientific partner (JKI and others))
• Federal Office for Agriculture and Food (BLE)
• Meeting 1-2 x per annuum
• Decision on traits and composition of the testing collection

Workflow in EVA II
1. Supply of seeds of interesting genotypes
(selected by the expert group)
2. Multiplication and primary evaluation of the
genotypes (coordinator)
3. Package of the testing collections and sending to
the partners, preparation of the evaluation lists
within the database (coordinator)
4. Cultivation of the testing collections in small-
scale parcels and evaluation of the disease
infection (partners)
5. Documentation of results in excel lists and
upload of the lists (partners)
6. Import in the database and release of the results
for consortium partners only (coordinator)
Management of the assortments
→ Bonitur lists (in Excel) are provided online and can later be imported
automatically online.
→ Import of the genotype data in the multi crop passport descriptor
format (FAO & EURISCO)
Sources of seeds
→ Genebank material (primary evaluation)
• Search in databases (e.g. GRIN)
• Publications
• Genebank collections (e.g. IPK, ICARDA, CIMMYT)
→ Varieties
• Proposals of the partners
• Publications
→ Material from research projects, e.g.
• New resistance genes
• Combination of different resistance genes
Composition of the testing collection

Information system
→ Serves for the acquisition, analyses, provision of
evaluation data
→ Serves for the information flow of the cooperation
partner
→ The acquired results are shared among the
consortium partners for direct use in their respective
breeding programs.
→ After 3 years, the data become freely accessible
(public domain).
→ Partners can search the results by year, crop,
disease or location

Strength of EVA II
→ Possibility to compare several years (standard reference lines)
→ Possibility to compare several locations (different agro-ecological sites,
agreed sites)
→ Close collaboration of breeders to generate synergies; free exclusive
access to all data in the first 3 years as an incentive (self-interest, no
external funding)

Awareness raising for EVA II
→ ECPGR Task Force: User Engagement
• Summer 2013, Lorenzo Maggioni (Bioversity), Riccardo
Bocci, Jan Nedelnik, Frank Ordon
• Proposal to extent the EVA II system to Europe in ECPGR
• Improvement of the cooperation between science,
genebanks and users by evaluating genetic resources and
broadening to more traits
• Stronger inclusion of farmers as stakeholders
→ EC Preparatory action for genetic resources
• Proposal to extent the EVA II system to Europe
→ FAO´s Global Partnership Initiative for Plant
Breeding Capacity Building
• Presentation of EVA II
Ideas for a global evaluation network
→ Public-Private-Partnership on the
value addition chain
→ CGIAR centre or the Advanced
Research Institutions as possible
coordinators of the network
→ Partner from developed and
developing countries as well as big
breeding institutions involved in the
network
→ Advantage for all partner to get
comparable evaluation results from
diverse agro-ecological sites
