BGCI’s PlantSearch database is the only global database of living plant, seed and tissue collections currently containing over 1,200,000 collection records provided by over 1,000 institutions. The database connects living collections, aiding conservation, research and education efforts on plant species; particularly those listed as threatened, rare or with medicinal properties.
The BGCI team, working in collaboration with the international organisation CABI, have recently updated the database linking it to CABI’s Invasive Species Compendium (ISC).
A number of new features are therefore now available.
