Hsi-an General Population 1904 is a historical seed accession of Cannabis sativa that the United States Department of Agriculture received from Hsi-an (today's Xi'an), in Shaanxi, China, on 23 May 1904 and numbered plant introduction (PI) 10979.[1] No seed of the lot survives. The National Plant Germplasm System, whose database carries the department's introductions, says the accession "no longer exists and can not be requested".[1]
The lot
The department's printed inventory lists the lot as hemp from Hsi-an, the first of 21 kinds of seed (nos. 10979 to 10999) that W. W. Simpson presented in exchange for American vegetable seed sent to him in December 1903. They were received on 23 May 1904.[2]
