GUIDs for Germplasm

I have collected here some links as an entry to this GUID wiki for the Germplasm community. I hope to start a discussion on how to implemet the LSID technology in the germplasm community and in particular for the genebanks (seedbanks) holding samples of plant genetic resources.

Germplasm is used here to describe conserved samples of the economically valuable crops and the crop wild relatives. Wikipedia describe germplasm as "the genetic resources, or more precisely the DNA of an organism and collections of that material".
