Yentai General Population 1906 is a historical seed accession of Cannabis sativa that the United States Department of Agriculture received from Yentai, in Liaoning, China, on 20 February 1907 and numbered plant introduction (PI) 20056.[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
Frank N. Meyer, the department's agricultural explorer, sent a collection of seeds from Manchuria, northern Korea and eastern Siberia that the department received on 20 February 1907. In the printed inventory this lot is his number 281a, from Yentai, 1 June 1906. Meyer's note says the seed came "from the rich plain between Mukden and Liaoyang, where the soil is a heavy yellow loam". There the seed was sown thickly broadcast and the stems were cut when they began to set seed.[2] His next number, from Liaoyang (NPG-CHN-LIA-0619060002), is "probably the same".[2]
