Manchuria General Population 1917 is a historical seed accession of Cannabis sativa that the United States Department of Agriculture received from Manchuria, in northeastern China, on 4 May 1917 and numbered plant introduction (PI) 44712.[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 Manchuria", presented by M. Toyonaga, director of the Central Experiment Station at Keijo (Seoul), Korea, and received on 4 May 1917. Its note, adapted from Alexander Hosie's Manchuria of 1901, describes how hemp oil was pressed in Manchuria, and says nothing of this seed.[2]
