      abstract     = {BackgroundPlant Genetic Resources (PGR) are crucial for
                      sustainable agriculture and food security, but the roadmap
                      of the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures
                      (ESFRI) lacks a dedicated research infrastructure (RI) for
                      their systematic cataloguing, safeguarding and improvement.
                      To fill this gap, we propose a new RI concept specifically
                      for PGR in Europe.ScopeThe proposed RI called “Plant
                      Genetic Resources Community for Europe” (GRACE) is aimed
                      to support current and future research projects on PGR,
                      enhance collaboration across European countries, unlock the
                      adaptive potential of crop biodiversity preserved in PGR
                      collections, and strengthen the current and future
                      sustainability of the food chain in Europe. As part of the
                      preparatory project “Promoting a Plant Genetic Resource
                      Community for Europe” (PRO-GRACE), we analysed the current
                      landscape of European RIs supporting PGR-related research in
                      complementary fields regarding research aims, research
                      products, and features/services.ConclusionsThrough a robust
                      quantitative approach, we have identified gaps and potential
                      synergies among six RIs from the Health and Food and
                      Environment domains of the ESFRI roadmap. These findings
                      were discussed in the context of European PGR research
                      priorities and current societal needs, and the
                      implementation of GRACE was proposed as a strategic response
                      to these challenges.},
