Generation of genotype and phenotype data for Saccharina latissima strains

This deliverable describes work carried out as part of work package 1 (WP1) of the SeaMark project aimed at generating genotype and phenotype data for Saccharina latissima strains that are being employed within the project to breed new cultivars with improved yields and other characteristics.

This deliverable, created for the SeaMark project, describes the extensive sampling that has been carried out to establish pertinent clonal gametophyte strains for the project and the work carried out so far to genotype and phenotype these new strains. The deliverable also describes the genotyping and phenotyping data available for the pre-existing collection of clonal gametophyte strains, which were generated by the EU project GenialG and which constitute part of the strain collection exploited by SeaMark WP1. The conclusion section presents the strategy being implemented to ensure that the work package objectives are attained despite delays incurred as a result of administrative problems with the recruitment of the postdoctoral fellow destined to carry out the breeding work.
