A Cuban grape germplasm repository was established years ago with a number of European varieties, American species and hybrids, then largely ignored.  Cuban scientists now have a mandate to asses the germplasm in relation to agronomic and berry quality traits, and to evaluate the potential for developing a Cuban wine industry.  Canadian researchers are interested in the genetic resources as well as the potential for collaborative research and commercial development.  Funding will allow Canadian experts in viticulture, genetics, pathology, stress tolerance and berry chemistry to play a role in evaluating the germplasm,  ensure its protection and development, and identify genetic resources of interest to oenology and viticulture in both countries. The expected benefits to Canada include access to potentially novel and useful germplasm, international scientific research collaboration and the potential for Canada to play an active role in the development of a Cuban grape and wine industry.

古巴几年前建立了一个葡萄种质资源库，其中包括一些欧洲品种、美国品种和杂交品种，当时基本上被忽视了。古巴科学家现在的任务是评估与农艺和浆果质量性状有关的种质，并评估发展古巴葡萄酒产业的潜力。加拿大的研究人员对遗传资源以及合作研究和商业开发的潜力感兴趣。这笔资金将允许加拿大葡萄栽培、遗传学、病理学、抗逆性和浆果化学方面的专家在评估种质中发挥作用，以确保其保护和发展，并确定两国葡萄学和葡萄园感兴趣的遗传资源。加拿大的预期收益包括获得潜在的新的和有用的种质、国际科学研究合作以及加拿大在古巴葡萄和葡萄酒产业发展中发挥积极作用的潜力。
