The International Plant Genetic Resources Institute (IPGRI) has recently published "Descriptors for genetic markers technologies" by M.C. De Vicente, T. Metz and A. Alercia. This list of descriptors is an effort to define community standards for documenting information about genetic markers and is targeted to researchers using genetic marker technologies to generate and exchange genetic marker data that are standardized and replicable.
