Asparagus officinalis field collection covers - 50 accessions and contains Polish local populations collected from the oldest asparagus plantations in Poland and foreign cultivars. 4. The Lycopersicon collection covers: - Collection of indeterminate type of tomatoes - 96 accessions. - Collection of determinate type of tomatoes - 120 accessions. Among materials are old, obsolete cultivars, landraces, breeding lines and wild species from Poland, Russia and other countries. Collected accessions has been evaluated during three years trials for 47 morphological characters of plant, fruit and some biological traits as well as screening the collection for resistance to Phytophtora infestans and chemical composition.

5. The collection some of Brassica sp. contains different lines, cultivars of cauliflower, cabbage, chinense cabbage, Brassica campestris as a source of resistance to diseases - 40 accessions. 6. The collection of Cucurbits - 110 accessions and includes Cucurbita maxima (winter squash), Cucurbita pepo (summer squash), Cucumis melo (melon), Cucumis sativus (cucumber). The materials contain mostly old polish, russian cultivars and landraces. 7. The collection of Lactuca sp. - 45 accessions and covers polish landraces, old cultivars of different forms of lettuce and wild species. All collected accessions are documented with regard to passport data, and 40% of those accessions have been evaluated on morphological, economic and other characters according to IBPGR recommendation, to needs of the breeders. lnformation related to the materials is stored in computerized database. Full evaluation is done for few species (garlic, onion, tomatoes, beans). Evaluation is carrying out in special field trials during three growning seasons. During evaluation attach oneself importance not on yielding, but to valorization of morphological characters, occurance of determined genes and also on characters, which are especially valuable in given materials (resistance to diseases, to stress conditions, source of sterility et.c.). Such informations can be very helpful at the beginning of new breeding programme. Characterization, multiplication, evaluation and some regeneration is carried out in close collaboration with breeding organizations, agricultural universities and individual breeders. Germplasm collecting and collaboration with different institutions Source of new accessions are private producers, Polish and foreign scientific institutes and collecting missions organized both in Poland and abroad. 3-4 short are organized every year time exploration missions are organized year, which provides us with rare and valuable material, from different regions of Poland. The Territory of Poland is successive penetrated, on a base of earlier prepared exploration plans. The route of expeditions lead through the old Polish centres of vegetables cultivation, where we suspect to find interesting us germplasm. Genetic resources are collected: - in allotment gardens. Such gardens exist in each town in Poland. The workers - amateur cultivate in these gardens very old cultivars and landraces of many vegetables and other plants for longtime. So, these gardens are often source of interesting us materials. - in small farms in villages The most valuable materials origin from small primitive farms. According to polish tradition around the houses ought to be small home garden for own needs. In these gardens, mostly by old farmers, are grown old local cultivars the same for years from force of habit, for pleasure. Sometimes the tradition of their cultivation is going from generation to generation. The old
