Description
The Denver Botanic Gardens' Tissue and DNA Bank is primarily comprised of silica-gel dried plant tissue samples. Plants represented are typically from the Southern Rocky Mountain Region. Tissue samples are collected as part of floristic survey or population genetics study.
Data Records
The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 2,894 records.
6 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.
Versions
The table below shows only published versions of the resource that are publicly accessible.
