Abstract: New intensive farming systems have resulted in a narrowing of the genetic diversity used in breeding programs. Breeders are looking for new sources of variation of specific traits to make genetic progress in adaptation to changing environmental conditions. Genomics-based plant germplasm research seeks to apply the techniques of genomics to germplasm characterization. Using these new methods and obtained data, plant breeders can increase the rate of genetic gains in specific breeding programs. Due to the complexity of heterogeneous sources of information, it is necessary to collect large quantities of referenced data. Molecular platforms are becoming increasingly important for the development of strategic germplasm resources for more effective molecular breeding of new cultivars. Following this trend in plant breeding, the AgroGenome portal for precise breeding programs was developed based on data collected for accessions stored in the Polish Genebank. It combines passport data of genotypes, phenotypic characteristics and interactive GWAS analysis visualization on the Manhattan plots based on GWAS results and on JBrowse interface. The AgroGenome portal can be utilized by breeders or researchers to explore diversity among investigated genomes. It is especially important to identify markers for tracking specific traits and identify QTL. The AgroGenome portal facilitates the exploitation and use of plant genetic resources stored in the Polish Genebank.
