Hi All,
An 'International Strawberry Genomics' meeting (which is open to everyone)
will be held on Monday, January 13th at 1pm in the Balboa Room at Handlery
Hotel (950 Hotel Circle North, San Diego). The goal of this meeting is to
discuss ongoing efforts in strawberry genomics, establish new
collaborations, and make any other announcements to the community.
Unfortunately the primary venue Town & Country hotel is undergoing
extensive renovation, and so quite a few events have been moved to the
nearby Handlery Hotel complex. A regular shuttle bus service will be
provided or is roughly a 300 yard walk from the conference center.
Please also note that we have this room on condition that “outside food &
beverages are not permitted – failure to comply will result in a penalty
fine".
Best,
Patrick Edger

Hi Chris,
Thank you for the nomination, however I am currently sitting on the RosExec committee as an industry resource. If I'm not mistaken, I think I have 1 year of service left.
Perhaps you are suggesting a re-nomination? Please clarify.
Kindly,
Ellen

The community will elect four new U.S. members and two new International members to a 3-year term. U.S.-based members vote for both U.S. candidates and International candidates. International community members vote for International candidates only. This year’s slate is diverse with lots of new faces that will surely enhance our mission and efforts. We encourage you to consider voting to create a leadership group that will appropriately represent the amazing diversity of the Rosaceae community.
As a reminder, the mission of RosEXEC is to:
• Serve as a communication and coordination focal point for the U.S. Rosaceae genomics, genetics, and breeding community.

Hi Folks,
Please join us for the NRSP10 workshop at PAG which covers many aspects of using GDR for research.
Workshop: Database Resources for Crop Genomics, Genetics and Breeding: NRSP10
When: Sunday January 13, 1.30 – 3.40 PM
Where: Meeting Room
Presentations
1.30: Overview of NRSP10 - Achievements and Future Plan (Dorrie Main)
1.45: Using the Online GenSAS Platform for Community Genome Annotation (Jodi Humman)
2.00: Tripal v3, the Collaborative Online Database Platform for Genomic, Genetic and Breeding
Databases
2.15: Using NRSP10 Data and Tools for Basic Research (Sook Jung)
2.30: Using NRSP10 Data and Tools for Translational Research (Cameron Peace)
2.45: Using NRSP10 Data and Tools for Breeding (Ksenija Gasic)
3.00: Global Performance Prediction Tool in Tripal BIMS (Craig Hardiner)
3.15: Open Discussion of NRSP10
Overview
NRSP10 is a USDA NIFA, industry and US Land Grant Universities funded project which provides standardized database and informatic resources for undeserved or specialty crops such as tree fruit, nuts, cotton and berries. It builds on existing database resources developed for Rosaceae (Genome Database for Rosaceae, www.rosaceae.org), Citrus (Citrus Genome Database, www.citrusgenomedb.org), Vaccinium (Genome Database for Vaccinium, www.vaccinium.org), Cool Season Food Legumes (Cool Season Food Legume Genome Database, www.csfl.org) and Cotton (CottonGen, www.cottongen.org). Developed using Tripal, an open-source, resource-efficient, modular, well supported software platform, these community databases provide centralized access to integrated genomic, genetic and breeding data and analysis tools for 24 crops representing a combined annual production value of over $25B. In this training workshop, we present progress in NRSP10 through a series of presentations by users and discuss the next 5 year plan for this project.
Cheers
