Development of the Application of CryopreservationTechniques for Conservation and Supporting Plant Breeding Program. Ika Roostika. In the beginning, cryopreservation technique was primarily used for germplasms long-term storage as passive collection because cell division and metabolism process can be stopped at super low temperature, commonly in liquid nitrogen. The technique is suitable for vegetative propagated plants and recalcitrant seeds. Recently, its application is extending for storing many species and orthodox seeds. In this paper, the development of cryopreservation application is discussed. In Indonesia, cryopreservation is being studied but the application of cryopreservation has been significantly developed abroad. The application of cryopreservation technique is not only for preserving passive collections but also for storing active collections, including to provide plant materials for hybridization, cellular engineering, genetic transformation, as well as pathogens eradication or cryotherapy. It is concluded that cryopreservation plays an important role in conventional and modern plant breeding program.

To compare the seed productivity of germplasm in India (Tamil Nadu) and Japan (Tsukuba), a total of 105 accessions from the Japanese National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (NARO) sorghum core collection were cultivated. The comparative cultivation studies were conducted at two locations in India and one in Japan. Differences in cultivation environments, including day length, temperature, and rainfall were evident in all the studies, and accordingly, seed production varied. The accessions grown in Japan yielded the highest number of grains per panicle. However, 11 accessions cultivated in Japan produced no harvest. Conversely, all accessions grown in parts of India, such as in Coimbatore, produced seeds. Therefore, although seed production in Japan was superior, there were benefits to cultivating the crops in India, including longer cultivation periods and the ability to overcome difficulties with seed multiplication found in Japan. Comparative cultivation projects involving international collaborative research are essential to reveal seed productivity in genetically diverse resources of sorghum. This study provides data about international sorghum production and information about differences in available accessions.

The National Institute of Agrobiological Sciences (NIAS) Genebank coordinates the conservation of plant, microorganism, and animal genetic resources related to food and agriculture in Japan. It also coordinates the distribution of genetic resources in the public domain for research, breeding, and educational purposes. To operate the NIAS Genebank efficiently, we have developed a genetic resources database, data management software, and web-based data retrieval systems to make the data available worldwide. This article describes the NIAS Genebank's Core Collections of global and Japanese soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.), Japanese azuki bean (Vigna angularis (Willd.) Ohwi et Ohashi), and Japanese wheat (Triticum aestivum L. s. l.), all of which are available through the Genebank website. This article also describes new features of the NIAS Genebank database, such as the ability to select singleseed-derived germplasm of soybean in the plant search system and to download photographic data on accessions. By using the downloaded plant image PDF files, users can obtain detailed passport and agronomic information by clicking on the image of an accession of interest.
