Evidentiary scope
The accession rests on two sources: the department's printed inventory entry for plant introduction 87141 (Inventory No. 103 (1932), p. 13) and the entry for PI 87141 in GRIN-Global, the database of the National Plant Germplasm System, as it stood on 27 October 2026. The inventory names the collectors, their number, the name of the sample, the province and the office the seed came through. GRIN-Global states that the lot "no longer exists and can not be requested", so the page gives the lot as gone. No conservation priority is assigned.
Identifier
The identifier NPG-KOR-GYE-0319300001 follows the wiki's seed-accession grammar: holder, ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country, province segment, month, year, sequence. The department's own number for the lot is PI 87141.
NPGstands for the National Plant Germplasm System of the United States Department of Agriculture, whose database, GRIN-Global, carries the department's plant introductions.KORis the ISO code for Korea.GYEstands for Gyeonggi Province.- Month
03: March, the month the seed was gathered. - Year 1930 is the year the seed was gathered.
0001is the lot's place, in plant-introduction order, among the holder's lots from the same country, province, month and year.
Classification
Neither source says where in the province the plants grew or who grew them, so the accession is classified Unknown. The seed came to the collectors through a government office.
Collectors and donors
The inventory heads the consignment "Seeds collected by P. H. Dorsett and W. J. Morse, agricultural explorers", and GRIN-Global lists both men with the Bureau of Industry of the Government General, so the two men are given as collectors.
Location and georeferencing
The inventory names Keikido, the Japanese-era name of Gyeonggi Province, and nothing finer; the province is the finest place named. Province-level points are not yet in use, so the page has no point and the map is off.
Dates
The collection date, 10 March 1930, is the day the inventory says the collectors received the seed through the Bureau of Industry at Keijo; GRIN-Global gives it as the collection date. The seed reached Washington on 12 April 1930, its received date.
Name
Both sources give the name of the sample as Ouami. Neither glosses it; it is entered as the local name as given.
