  1. WP 2 – P6 (INRA-France) • Activity of the P6 in the frame work of the project: regeneration of 300 lettuce accessions • in year 1, regenerated seeds of • 82 L. sativa have been included in the project • Objectives for year 2 • the regeneration of 75 L. sativa LeafyVeg-26November2008

  2. Work made at INRA in year 2 Insect-proof tunnel Control of winter cultivars • Safety duplication at Warwick Sample of seeds of the 82 accessions from 2007 • Regeneration of lettuce accessions Seed production under insect proof plastic tunnel Storage of seeds at 6°C • Control of the harvested seeds Uniformity and identity of the progenies LeafyVeg-26November2008

  3. Regeneration of lettuce in 2008 • Sowing of old seeds 22 February • Plantation 26 March • Notation of the minimum descriptors for flowering • Harvesting plant by plant of 69 cv from July to August(> 10 g/plant) • Storage of harvested seeds at 6°C October • Culture in 2008: 74 accessions (with 2 plants) 4 of the dead accessions in summer regenerated in this fall in a glasshouse Insect-proof tunnel used for seed production LeafyVeg-26November2008

  15. Conclusion of the year 2 for P6 • Activities made in 2008 • Safety duplication of 82 accessions (sent to Dave on April) • Regeneration of 73 accessions (69 in summer + 4 in fall) and storage of the seeds • Control of harvested seedsin open field = 35 field accessions harvested in 2007 under plastic tunnel = 22 winter accessions harvested in 2008 • Notation of minimum descriptors and photos (in progress for winter accessions) LeafyVeg-26November2008

  16. Conclusion of the year 2 for P6 • Work still to be done • Activities planned in LeafyVeg project • Copy in ILDB file of the minimum descriptors • Make a CD with photos of the plants at the heading stage if the parters are interested to put them on the ILDB Web site • Storage at -18°C and safety duplication at Warwick of the seeds harvested in 2008 • Other activities LeafyVeg-26November2008

  17. Project for the year 3 for P6 • Activities to made in 2009 • Regeneration of 74 accessions and storage of the seeds • Control of harvested seeds • Notation of minimum descriptors and photos • At the end of the year 3 • 229 regenerated accessions • out of the 300 in the project LeafyVeg-26November2008
