Accomplishments

The Western Regional Plant Introduction Station (WRPIS) is one of four regional plant introduction stations in the United States. Activities at WRPIS focus on acquisition, preservation, characterization, evaluation, documentation and distribution of assigned crop and wild relative plant species and their associated information along with conducting mission-related research. The W6 Regional Multistate Research Project associated with the Station contributes considerable funding (~12% of the total operating budget) to support its mission. Funds are managed through the State Agricultural Experiment Station (SAES) and originate from the Hatch Multistate Research Fund (MRF) managed by the National Institute for Food and Agriculture. The global crop plant research community continued to utilize extensively WRPIS germplasm collections. In 2020, 36,790 germplasm samples (e.g., seed packets) were distributed in 746 orders to each of 47 U.S. states and to 28 countries. Also, in 2020, a new 5-year W6 Regional Multistate Research Project proposal was drafted, submitted, and approved with minor revisions by the Multistate Review Committee.

At the beginning of 2021, there were 99,877 accessions belonging to 955 genera, 4,360 species (4,988 taxa) in the WRPIS collections with the site accounting for ~17% of the active NPGS accessions. In 2020, a total of 36,790 seed samples packets were distributed in 975 orders to 577 unique requestors with addresses in 47 domestic states and the District of Columbia, and 28 foreign countries. 76% percent (28,092 packets) were distributed to the U.S. and 24% (8,878 packets) were distributed internationally. A total of 5,508 packets from WRPIS went to the 13 Western states in 196 orders. Requesters in most domestic states received germplasm samples from WRPIS during the reporting period, with a total of 5,508 packets (i.e., order items) from WRPIS going to the 13 Western states.

The collections hosted by the WRPIS continue to increase, although acquisition rate has slowed over the past few years. The reduced rate of acquisitions has been due in part to difficulties in acquiring non-native germplasm because of restricted access and because of difficulties associated to the COVID 19 Pandemic. In addition, many of the crop collections are currently well represented and WRPIS capacity for adding germplasm is being reached. Going forward, strategic additions focusing on crop wild relatives and gaps in holdings will be targeted. In 2020, 883 accessions were acquired including 766 native plant accessions collected by the Seeds of Success (SOS) program.

Additional service activities benefiting WPRIS germplasm stakeholders included the addition of accession-associated information into the Germplasm Resources Information Network (GRIN)-Global database as well as backing up and viability testing of seed inventories. A total of 456 observation data points on 456 accessions were uploaded into the GRIN-Global database. These data points were for 8 established descriptors of 3 different crops. Collaborators contributed 3% and WRPIS staff provided 97% of the evaluation data. In addition, 2,651 voucher images were uploaded to GRIN-Global with most of them being seed, flower, and leaf images. Seed viability records uploaded to GRIN-Global totaled 813 during the reporting period. The National Laboratory for Genetic Resource Preservation (NLGRP) in Fort Collins, CO tested 755 accessions, and 58 were tested by the Horticultural Crops curatorial program. A total of 1,270 seed inventories were shipped to the NLGRP for secured backup.

Although many of the activities of the WRPIS are service oriented, research addressing important stakeholder needs were also conducted in 2020. For example, the Native Plants and the Horticultural Crops Programs investigated effects of different stratification regimes and seed temperatures on optimized seed germinations in five native Astragalus (milkvetch) species. Generally, results indicated a 2-week stratification and cooler temperatures produced optimal germinations for these species. The WRPIS Lentil Core Collection was screened for disease reaction to Aphanomyces root rot, an important soilborne disease affecting production areas on the Pacific Northwest, with resistant germplasm identified. Significant marker trait associations identified in genome-wide association studies allowed for breeder-friendly kompetitive allele specific PCR (KASP) marker development for use in markers assisted breeding efforts. A collaborative team, led by Alfalfa Geneticist Long-Xi Yu, mapped genetic loci associated with alfalfa verticillium wilt resistance in a biparental population and identified candidate genes. Candidate gene sequence variants were used to develop several breeder-friendly markers. Research also on alfalfa and its wild relatives focused on screening large sets of germplasm for disease reaction to spring black stem and leaf spot, an important fungal plant pathogen for which no good disease resistance is found in modern cultivars. The research produced improved inoculation and scoring procedures, more clearly defined host range within Medicago, and allowed for resistant selections to be made for improved populations.

 

Impacts

  1. During the 2020 calendar year, germplasm continued to be distributed free of cost to both national and international stakeholders for research and educational purposes. During this time a total of 36,790 seed samples packets were distributed in 975 orders to 577 unique requestors with addresses in 47 domestic states and the District of Columbia, and 28 foreign countries. Of these, 76% percent (28,092 packets) were distributed to the U.S. and 24% (8,878 packets) were distributed internationally. A total of 5,508 packets from WRPIS were distributed to all 13 Western states in 196 orders. Requesters in most domestic states received germplasm samples from WRPIS during the reporting period with a total of 5,508 packets (i.e., order items) from WRPIS going to the 13 U.S. western states. A list of some of the publications arising from research conducted by stakeholders using WRPIS and/or NPGS plant germplasm can be found in this report in the corresponding section. The service provided by the WRPIS continues to support of increased global agricultural productivity, and sustainability.
  2. During 2020, in-house WRPIS research was conducted on several important agricultural crops including lentils and alfalfa. Work focused on evaluation germplasm for both biotic and abiotic resistance, the identification of markers associated with these traits, and in selecting improved germplasm to aid in prebreeding efforts. In addition, research focused on optimized germinations techniques for native plant germplasm lacking this basic information. Much of the research and summarized data has been made available to the public freely via reports, presentations (16 in 2020) and peer-review publications (11 in 2020). Characterization and evaluation information has also been associated with specific germlpasm via the publicity accessible to GRIN-Global database. This research impacts regional, national, and international agriculture by advancing knowledge about crop production in sustainable ways.
  3. Germplasm distributed from the WRPIS, and other NPGS sites, has had impact on agricultural research in western states. For example, improved durum wheat variety ‘Lustre’ was developed from the NPGS National Small Grain Collection (NSGC) plant introduction (PI) 330546 by researchers at Montana State University. The accession contributed several traits of interest, including low cadmium accumulation and an allele that increases pasta firmness. Early-career faculty in plant breeding and biochemistry with the University of Nevada, Reno have relied heavily on sorghum, teff, wheat, carrot, and potato germplasm for published research on abiotic stress responses in these staple crop species. Eastern filbert blight is the most economically important plant pathogen in commercial hazelnut production, and sources of disease resistance continue to be identified in NPGS germplasm. In the past 12 years, hazelnut acreage in Oregon has expanded significantly with disease resistant cultivars being developed and deployed with NPGS accessions in their pedigree. In Hawaii, NPGS sweet potato germplasm accessions are being tested for weevil and nematode resistance. Both root-knot nematode and weevils are major pests causing large decline (~70%) in sweet potato production. Sources of disease resistance in accessions are being used in breeding programs to transfer genes into the locally adapted varieties. Private partnerships in Idaho are combining efforts and exploring the use of NPGS diploid potato germplasm in breeding. This approach is being pursued and may revolutionize how potatoes are bred and cultivated in the U.S. and around the world.
  4. Although the COVID19 Pandemic has slowed student mentoring some, the WRPIS continued to rely heavily on both undergraduate and graduate students. The WRPIS hires many temporary/seasonal employees/interns (close to 40) to work in the laboratories, greenhouses and/or in the fields aiding service and research projects. In addition, scientific staff mentor and host high school and undergraduate interns under different programs including through the USDA’s Office of Outreach, Diversity, and Equal Opportunity and through Minority Serving Institutions (i.e., Columbia Basin College). WRPIS, scientists also serve on graduate student’s (mostly from WSU) committees. These activities are all in efforts to encourage participation and training of the next diverse agricultural workforce generations.
