The Arabidopsis Biological Resource Center (ABRC) has been serving the plant research community since 1991 by collecting, preserving, amplifying and distributing seed and DNA resources of Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) and related species. These include diverse DNA libraries, full-length cDNA collections, insertion mutant seed populations, seed collections representing global natural variation, as well as genome editing resources. The ABRC's long-term goals are: 1) to continue to enlarge and expand the collection though acquisition of new resources, 2) to store, amplify and distribute new types of resources based on the needs of the community, 3) to increase the efficiency of the operation, to provide higher quality service with a continued low stock price, 4) to provide free access to curated stock information, and 5) to continue to generate, collect and distribute teaching and education outreach kits, to facilitate an integrated plant biology education both locally and nationally.This award will facilitate the transfer of ownership of two large legacy seed collections, generated through previous NSF funded research. The Center will curate, amplify and distribute novel seed stock collections that have been donated by two retiring or re-orienting Arabidopsis researchers, Dr. David Meinke and Dr. Robert Last. The information from these legacy collections (about 20,000 records) will be integrated within the existing ABRC database infrastructure, in addition to securing, curating and amplifying the physical collections for approximately 6,500 stocks. These collections are larger and more complex to curate and maintain than the stocks normally accepted and this project will support their timely inclusion into the larger ABRC collection. The addition of the Last and Meinke legacy collections also presents an opportunity for the ABRC to highlight these acquisitions through the creation of new education resources and unique, hands-on experiences for K-16 students, educators and the general public. This will include the development of two new Greening the Classroom education modules that include stocks from the legacy collections, and a public hands-on laboratory experience involving "citizen scientists" who will assist in the identification of defective seed from the Last collection.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

自1991年以来，拟南芥生物资源中心（ABRC）一直在为植物研究社区提供服务，通过收集，保存，放大和分发拟南芥（拟南芥）和相关物种的种子和DNA资源。这些包括不同的DNA文库，全长cDNA收集，插入突变种子种群，代表全球自然变异的种子收集以及基因组编辑资源。 ABRC的长期目标是：1）尽管获得了新资源的获取，但要继续扩大和扩大收集，2）以基于社区的需求来存储，放大和分配新的资源，3）3）以提高运营效率，以提供更高质量的服务，以持续的低股票价格提供较低的股票价格，4）以提供策划的库存，以便在策划和分发式餐具，以继续进行策划和分发，并分发出来，并分发出来，5），5），并分发出来，5），5），5），并分发出来，并分发出来，5）该奖项将有助于通过以前的NSF资助研究产生的两个大型旧种子收集的所有权转让所有权。该中心将策划，扩大和分发新的种子库存收集，这些库存收集是由两个退休或重新定位的拟南芥研究人员，David Meinke博士和Robert博士Last捐赠的。除了确保，策划和放大大约6,500个股票的物理收藏品外，这些遗产收藏中的信息（约20,000条记录）还将集成在现有的ABRC数据库基础架构中。这些收集比通常接受的股票更大，更复杂，可以策划和维护，并且该项目将及时纳入更大的ABRC集合。最后的和Meinke Legacy系列的增加也为ABRC提供了一个机会，可以通过创建新的教育资源以及为K-16学生，教育者和公众创造新的教育资源和独特的，实践的经验来突出这些收购。这将包括开发两个新的绿色课堂教育模块，其中包括遗产馆藏的股票，以及涉及“公民科学家”的公共动手实验室经验，他们将协助从上一部收藏中识别有缺陷的种子。本奖项奖反映了NSF的法规任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识优点和广泛的范围来评估的，并且值得通过评估来进行评估。
