 The VIR has developed a comprehensive strategy for naming and preserving vegetatively propagated crops. The strategy involves creating nomenclature standards for each variety, developing a genetic passport for each variety, and using biotechnology to preserve the original material. This strategy has been successfully applied to raspberries and blackcurrants, resulting in the creation of nomenclature standards for 20 raspberry varieties and 5 blackcurrant varieties. Additionally, 13 samples of raspberry varieties and 4 samples of blackcurrant varieties have been preserved in vitro, and 4 varieties have been placed in the VIR cryobank for long-term cryopreservation.
