Genetics Resources Center

The Genetics Resources Center is an organization that focuses on the collection, preservation, and study of genetic materials, such as seeds, plants, animals, and microbes. Its purpose is to maintain biodiversity and support research in genetics, agriculture, and biology. By safeguarding these resources, the center helps ensure food security, promotes sustainable practices, and contributes to scientific discoveries. It plays a critical role in understanding genetics and how organisms adapt to their environments, ultimately benefiting society by enhancing crop resilience, conserving endangered species, and improving health through genetic research.
