Organization of Seed List
The seed list is downloadable to your computer in both spreadsheet format as well as tab delimited text table format. The accessions are sorted in alphabetical order by genus then by accession. In all of the lists the following fields accompany each accession in the collection. For many accessions the spreadsheet file also contains references to and allows sorting by habitat.
