If you double click on one row of an accession, you will open a window that will allow you to edit the data of this accession from passport, characterization, evaluation data or any other data related to the accession.

This first tab called Identification allows you to edit the first level of passport data. Once you have started to modify data on a tab you will need to validate or cancel your edit to be able to select another tab. When you close the window the system will ask you about saving or discarding your changes. If you have modified the data in different tabs it will be hard to remember changes and thus save them. The grey textboxes are data that you cannot edit.

Note: When you click on modify taxonomy, the taxonomy displayed will be associated to the status of the plant. Meaning that in our case with a status of plant set to cultivar you will see only the taxonomy associated to this status, meaning that you won’t be able to select wild species or species in the taxonomy screen. If you want to switch from cultivar to wild or vice versa you first need to select the corresponding status in the dropdown list for status of the plant.

As you can see above, when the taxonomy screen appears the level corresponding to the current taxonomy of this application is highlighted in blue (in this example, Cavendish). It is possible to select a different classification. You can see the different groups or subgroups available. If you click on the plus button the tree will open, showing the lower level of known taxonomy for the current level.

You can also perform a search by typing the name of the taxon you are looking for. In the example below this is done by typing the three first letter of the taxon.

From this tab you will be able to see and edit the information related to the acquisition of your germplasm. The donor information such as type of donor (i.e. Collection, Collecting mission, Unknown and other). It is possible to record a history of the movement of the germplasm: several previous locations that will be ordered from current donor of the germplasm to the collection you are managing as well as previous holder of the accession (when known by the donor).

In this example the accession was donated by CIRAD_FLHOR with no additional information on accession code.
