Through a common search interface at ZADI, it is possible to interrogate these heterogeneous databases simultaneously, for example, by scientific or common names of plants.

In this way, the “Mansfeld Database” is connected with the GRIN Taxonomic Database of Agricultural Plants (http://www.ars-grin.gov/). Additionally, automatic links from the “Mansfeld Database” to the following databases have been established: • ITIS (Canadian version) - Integrated Taxonomic Information System, • Plants for the Future Species Database [test only], • NCBI Database for Nucleotide Sequence Data, • NCBI Database for Protein Sequence Data, • NCBI Database for Molecular Structure Data, • NCBI PubMed Database for References. Integration in international projects Cultivated plants have been generally excluded from European flora database projects (e.g., Flora Europaea, MedChecklist) in the past. The “Mansfeld Database” offers an opportunity of standardising the scientific nomenclature and taxonomy for cultivated plants. In the framework of the EU project “European Network of Biodiversity Information” (ENBI, http://www.faunaeur.org/enbi/ info.html) approved mid 2002, it would therefore complement the European “wild plant databases” very well. Since many plants cultivated in the European and Mediterranean region have been derived from the wild flora, a considerable overlap between these groups of species can be expected. It is also desirable to complement the general information in the “Mansfeld Database” by country-specific studies, especially for European countries. For Italy, such inventories of cultivated plant species have already been published (HAMMER et al. 1992, 1999). Initiatives in this direction have started, e.g., on an EU scale (i.e., IPK’s role in ENBI) and within ECP/GR. It was also proposed to use the “Mansfeld 33
The "Mansfeld Database" in its national and international context Database” as a taxonomic backbone to the central database EURISCO of plant genetic resources in European collections to be created within the EU project EPGRIS by end of 2003. The “Mansfeld Database” is permanently being completed by images, especially of genebank accessions and herbarium specimens, and by common names of plants in different languages.
