@RJABuggs @FoodiePharma I'm hearing that the main cold store is safe and has mostly been safety. So while there is clearly a present threat, it just isn't true that any “terrible loss to plant genetic resources” has occurred. @LiseLykkeS may know more.

Oh, I do hope that's the case and that they have a path to safe storage of the remaining collections. Thanks for sharing this update!
Is it possible to ship samples of this collection abroad - to Switzerland or the UK or the US or Canada? Multiple storage sites can maximize safety. #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦🌻🚜🦮🐈☘️🐝
Quite a lot has already been duplicated and sent to other genebanks, including Svalbard.
The more genebanks holding this material, the better!
Not really. Most genebanks are short of resources. To have everything everywhere is wasteful. Two duplicates is plenty if everyone cooperates properly as an integrated system.
