Field reports & internal analyses

Zomia / community-generated work based on field collection and observation.

• [Region / year] field report series – link to the main Field reports index and the specific report (e.g. Field report: Western Dooars & Kalimpong Range (2025-06-20)).
• Accession analyses – summaries that link specific Accession pages to agronomic, chemotypic or historical notes.
• Method notes – pages describing how surveys, scoring schemes and sampling protocols are carried out.

External literature

Academic and grey literature directly relevant to documented regions and populations.

• Regional overview papers – e.g. ethnobotany, agronomy or historical work that informs a Growing Region or Appellation; link to the relevant reference or bibliography page.
• Population / variety studies – genetic, chemotype or morphometric studies that touch identified landrace populations.
• Legal / policy research – work that shapes understanding of regulatory regimes affecting traditional cultivation.

Datasets & tools

Structured data and tools that support analysis of landrace populations.

• Accession datasets – exports or summaries of Tier 1 and Tier 2 fields for a set of Accession records.
• Maps and layers – GIS layers, region maps and spatial datasets; link to map index pages or external repositories.
• Code / workflows – analysis scripts, repeatable workflows or scoring templates used on the project.

How to categorise research

• Use this portal to surface work that is reusable across regions, not every minor note on a single page.
• Where possible, tie each item back into the hierarchy (Gene Pool → Growing Region → Growing Area → Appellation → Field → Accession) so readers can move from evidence to specific populations.
• Consider creating dedicated index pages for larger topics (e.g. Cannabis genetics literature, Charas ethnography) and linking them here rather than listing every paper.
