The dataset includes about 14,000 accessions from 29 Triticum species maintained at the Mediterranean Germplasm Genebank (MGG) in Bari (Italy). More details are available at https://ibbr.cnr.it/mgd/
Seeds are maintained in sealed cans at -20 °C (long-term storage) and paper bags at 4 °C (short-term storage), and periodically checked for germination and refreshed. Seed lots are available upon request at https://ibbr.cnr.it/mgd/ or by contacting mgd.staff@ibbr.cnr.it.

The expected outcome of the activity is the implementation of a national network of biological research collections, including all the existing in vivo and ex-situ collections of biological organisms (animals, plants, fungi, algae, archaea, bacteria, viruses, etc.) that have been created and maintained through past and current research projects.\n\nBioMemory (CNR-DiSBA Project No. SAC.AD002.173) is the network of biological collections of the Department of Biology, Agriculture and Food Sciences (DiSBA) of the National Research Council of Italy (CNR) for bio-monitoring, biodiversity conservation, agri-food and environmental sustainability, and human well-being.

Overall, the collection preserves more than 59,000 accessions of 870 species from 203 genera and 39 families (mainly Poaceae, Fabaceae, Solanaceae, Brassicaceae, Asteraceae, etc.). Over 13,000 samples have been directly collected through time and georeferenced by IBBR exploration teams, while others have been acquired from other Institutions through exchange activities. The main objective of MGG is to preserve the genetic resources of herbaceous plants of interest for Mediterranean agriculture. Particular attention is dedicated to specific segments of plant genetic resources, such as local varieties (including \"typical products\") or endangered agroecotypes, wild relatives of crops, and plants potentially useful for extracting bioactive or biotechnological compounds. The main commitments of MGG since 1970 are (i) the collection, conservation, and distribution of PGR; (ii) the characterization and evaluation of PGRs and the analysis of their genetic structure; (ii) the selection and pre-breeding of PGR, and the recognition of useful genes.
