Abstract
The paper deals with the role of the Seed Laboratory in developing and maintaining the plant collections
of the M.M. Gryshko National Botanical Garden of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The
paper summarizes the results of 80 years of work related to the scientific exchange of seeds and planting
material. The contributions made by different departments of the Botanical Garden to this process are
analyzed. As a result of continuous documentation activities, the register of incoming plant material
currently comprises 98 accession journals. Over the entire period of its activity, the Seed Laboratory has
maintained scientific contacts with more than 600 botanical institutions in Ukraine and abroad. At present,
active exchange of plant material is carried out with 165 botanical gardens and research centers that
regularly submit seed requests. Most collaborations involve European institutions. While exchanges with
botanical organizations in Asia, North America, and Africa occur less frequently. The Index Seminum issued
by the Botanical Garden is published electronically every two years. Nearly all departments of the Botanical
Garden participate in the seed exchange network. Since 2004, within the framework of the research
program of the Department of Natural Flora, work has been conducted on establishing a specialized seed
collection of rare and endangered plant species of the flora of Ukraine. This collection includes seeds
gathered during field expeditions as well as seeds obtained from ex situ cultivations maintained by various
departments, including Natural Flora, Dendrology and Park Science, Cultural Flora, Flowering-Ornamental
Plants, Tropical and Subtropical Plants, and the Laboratory of Medical Botany. Currently, the collection
comprises 472 species belonging to 82 families. The paper also presents photographs of plants cultivated
from seeds obtained through scientific exchange. It demonstrates the practical outcomes of the Seed
Laboratory’s activities. Information is also provided about the carpological collection developed within
the laboratory. Today, the carpological collection contains 17827 samples belonging to 1630 genera, 7266
species, and 218 families. Possible directions for further expansion and improvement of the carpological

Vakulenko et al.
Every botanical garden has a unit responsible
for the scientific exchange of plant material.
This mechanism plays a significant role in
replenishing the expositions and collections in
botanical gardens. The tradition is nearly 200
years old. International agreements strictly
regulate the exchange of plant material for
scientific purposes. Ukraine has acceded to
the Florence Agreement on the Importation of
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Materials
(UNESCO, 1950), the Convention on Biological
Diversity (CBD, 1992), and the Convention on
International Trade in Endangered Species of
Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES, 1973).
The Seed Laboratory was initiated to
mobilize and inventory plant material in the
second half of 1944. It was established shortly
after the botanical garden gained the status
of an independent scientific institution within
the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine system.
Today, the Seed Laboratory is a part of the
Department of Natural Flora (Vakulenko &
Chuvikina, 2005; Chuvikina, 2016).
The laboratory staff initiated a scientific
exchange of seeds and planting materials
and began the registration process. The first
specialized seed journal, titled “Registration of
Seeds and Planting Material Received by the
Botanical Garden of the Academy of Sciences
of the Ukrainian SSR”, was established in 1944.
The first portion of the seeds was registered
on 3 August 1944. The seeds were obtained
from the Botanical Garden of Ashgabat,
Turkmenistan (Loya et al., 2025).
According to archival data, seed exchange
occurred even before the introduction of
registration journals. For example, as early as
1936, nearly 2,500 samples of fruits and seeds
from various woody plants were received from
different botanical institutions worldwide.
All the seeds were immediately sown
(Chuvikina, 2016).
Today, the register of incoming plant
material consists of 98 journals. The journals
provide detailed information on the creation
of collections and the places of mobilization of
planting material, including the date of receipt,
Latin name, sender, and the curator to whom
the material was assigned.
The list of registered seeds enables us to
trace the approaches used in the formation
of the botanical garden’s collections and
expositions. In particular, plants grown from
seeds obtained from various geographical
regions later formed exposition plots
modeled according to the botanical-
geographical principle (Department of
Natural Flora). Seeds of plants with decorative
features served as the basis for replenishing
the collections of the Departments of
Flower-Ornamental Plants, Dendrology
and Park Science, as well as the Landscape
Construction. Seeds of plants with medicinal
properties or economic value were directed
to the collections of the Laboratory of
Medical Plants, the Department of Cultural
Flora, and the Department of Acclimatization
of Fruit Plants.
The informational significance of
the registration journals is difficult to
overestimate. For example, entry No. 2709
in Journal No. 1 indicates that the portion of
Atropa caucasica Kreyer seeds, received from
the Botanical Garden of the USSR Academy of
Sciences (Leningrad), was transferred in May
1945 for sowing to the prominent botanist
M.G. Popov (Loya et al., 2025).
Journal No. 3 dated 06.01.1947 records
peony cultivars (Fig. 1). The peonies were
received as seedlings from the Langerhausen
nursery (Dresden, Germany).
Notably, the ‘remarks’ column shows
that the planting material was received as
reparations from Germany (certificate No. 9
from 03.09.1946). These cultivars remain
in the collection under their respective
numbers and are used in breeding work in the
Department of Flower-Ornamental Plants’
peony plot. For example, we have observed
the flowering of several peony cultivars:

‘Louis van Houtte’ No. 12580, and ‘President
Taft’ No. 12571 (Fig. 2).
Scientific exchange of plant material was
conducted for both the needs of the botanical
garden and for other institutions, including
institutes of genetics and breeding, botany,
plant physiology, and municipal landscaping
services.
During its 80-year history, the staff of the
seed laboratory conducted extensive work in
exchanging seeds with Ukrainian and foreign
botanical institutions. Over this period,
scientific contacts were maintained with more
than 600 botanical institutions worldwide.
Today, active exchange occurs with 165
institutions that send seed requests. Most
exchanges occur with European botanical
institutions, with fewer exchanges taking
place with institutions in Asia, North America,
and Africa.
In addition to the botanical gardens,
seed exchange is conducted with research
institutions, arboreta, higher educational
establishments, forestry enterprises,
nurseries, as well as with private domestic and
foreign collectors.
The assortment of seeds offered for
scientific exchange is reflected in seed
exchange lists of botanical institutions. In
Ukraine and abroad, such documents are

issued under various titles, including “Seed
Catalogue”, “Seed List”, “Delectus”, and “Index
seminum”.
Since 1947, initially annually and later
every two years, a seed exchange list “Index
seminum” has been published. It listed 400 to
1,836 plant names in different years (Fig. 2).
Currently, the seed list proposed by the
botanical garden for scientific exchange
is published electronically every two
years. It is compiled and standardized in
accordance with recommendations adopted
by the International Association of Botanical
Gardens in Nancy, France, in 1984 (Larsen &
Maudsley, 1984):
• title page indicates the year
of publication and institution
identification;
• families arranged alphabetically within
taxonomic groups;
• genera and species listed alphabetically;
• only verified taxa included;
• origin of each sample provided;
• each sample is assigned an accession
number, which is also its order number.
The basis for Index seminum is the
collections of living plants in open ground
and in greenhouse conditions. Almost
all departments of the botanical garden

participate in scientific seed exchange
(Table 1).
During the existence of the seed laboratory,
its staff sent about 200,000 seed samples
to related institutions. More than 390,000
samples of seeds and planting material
were ordered and received, sown, and
planted in the plots of the botanical garden.
Seed exchange enabled collections to be
enriched with unique species of world flora.
It demonstrates the diversity, beauty, and
richness of the plant kingdom. These include
rare and endangered species of natural flora,
extensive collections of dendrology and
ornamental plants, collections of aromatic
and fodder plants, exotics from greenhouses,
and others. For example, the poppy collection
of the Flower-Ornamental Plants Department
was almost entirely formed from plants grown
from seeds ordered from Delectus. Plants
from seeds obtained through international
scientific exchange are now represented in
the collections of every department. Only a
small portion of these plants is shown in Figs.
3–7. Data on their origin are presented in
Table 2.
It is worth noting that plants grown from
seeds obtained through international scientific
exchange are widely used in breeding
programs. In particular, scientists from

a patent for a new variety of Staunton’s
elmsholtsia ‘Veresneva Krasunya’ (authors of
the cultivar: Korableva O.A., Gaznyuk M.O.,
Rakhmetov D.B.), in the breeding of which
plants grown from seeds obtained from France
were used (Fig. 4 D; Table 2).
Immediately after the laboratory’s
establishment, the collection of seed samples
for further morphological study began. Most
of the obtained planting material was used
directly for sowing or planting. In contrast,
a smaller portion of seeds was retained for
the laboratory’s collections. This essentially
marked the beginning of the carpological
collection and one of the most important
research activities of the laboratory (Fig. 8).

for morphological, anatomical, and systematic
study of plants. Currently, the carpological
collection contains 17827 samples belonging
to 1630 genera, 7266 species, and 218 families.
A significant contribution to the seed
collection was made by the well-known
Ukrainian carpologist Dr. Nina Dudіk. She
headed the laboratory for many years. The
order Fabales of the world flora is most fully
represented in the carpological collection
(about 2000 samples), as well as seeds
of Ukrainian flora (over 3000 samples).
A collection received from German botanical
gardens in 1947, comprising fruits and seeds
of approximately 1,000 plant species from
65 families, holds considerable historical
and scientific interest. Seed material more
than 70 years old has been well-preserved in
glass stoppered tubes and can still be used as
reference specimens.

Natural Flora, a collection of seeds from rare
and endangered species of Ukrainian flora
has been established. Its basis consists of
seeds collected in nature during expeditions.
Additionally, samples are collected in plots
managed by the Departments of Natural
Flora, Dendrology and Park Science, as well
as the Flower-Ornamental Plants, Tropical
and Subtropical Plants, and Cultural Flora.
Samples are also obtained via Delectus from
other botanical gardens. Currently, the
collection of rare and endangered species
of Ukrainian flora comprises 472 species,
belonging to 82 families. It includes species
listed in the Bern Convention, the IUCN Red
List, the Red Book of Ukraine, and regional
red lists.
The M.M. Gryshko National Botanical
Garden today serves as a center for ex situ
conservation of rare plants. Therefore,
establishing a Seed Bank (a type of genetic
bank) of rare and endangered species of the
44 Plant Introduction • 108
Vakulenko et al.
flora of Ukraine at the Seed Laboratory is a
highly urgent task. Despite the absence of
specialized storage conditions required for
long-term preservation of genetic material,
such collections remain of considerable
scientific value. They are used in training
future biologists as visual material illustrating
the diversity of plant adaptations for seed
protection and dispersal.

У статті показано роль насіннєвої лабораторії у створенні колекцій рослин Національного ботанічного
саду імені М.М. Гришка Національної академії наук України. Підбито підсумки 80-річної діяльності
лабораторії у науковому обміні посадковим матеріалом та насінням, проаналізовано участь у цьому
різних відділів ботанічного саду. В результаті багаторічного документування реєстр надходження
насіння та посадкового матеріалу наразі складається з 98 журналів. Протягом всього часу
діяльності наукові контакти підтримувались з понад 600 зарубіжними та вітчизняними ботанічними
установами. Активний обмін рослинним матеріалом відбувається з 165 ботанічними установами,
звідки надходять заявки на насіння. Більшість наукового обміну насінням здійснюється за участю
європейських установ, менше – з ботанічними установами Азії, Північної Америки та Африки.
“Index Seminum”, що видається Ботанічним садом, публікується в електронному вигляді кожні два
роки. Майже всі відділи Ботанічного саду беруть участь у науковому обміні насінням. З 2004 року в
межах наукової тематики відділу природної флори розпочата робота по створенню колекції насіння
рідкісних та зникаючих видів флори України. Ця колекція включає насіння, зібране у природі під час
експедиційних відряджень співробітниками відділу природної флори, а також відібране на ділянках
відділів природної флори, дендрології та паркознавства, квітниково-декоративних рослин, тропічних
та субтропічних рослин, нових культур, лабораторії медичної ботаніки. Наразі колекція налічує 472
види, що належать до 82 родин. Представлено фотографії рослин, що вирощені кураторами ділянок
з отриманого за науковим обміном насіння. Наведено дані про карпологічну колекцію, що зібрана в
насіннєвій лабораторії, та намічено шляхи її подальшого розвитку та вдосконалення. Карпологічна
колекція налічує 17827 зразків, що належать до 1630 родів, 7266 видів та 218 родин.

Over the entire period of its activity, the Seed Laboratory has maintained scientific contacts with more than 600 botanical institutions in Ukraine and abroad. At present, active exchange of plant material is carried out with 165 botanical gardens and research centers that regularly submit seed requests. Most collaborations involve European institutions. While exchanges with botanical organizations in Asia, North America, and Africa occur less frequently. The Index Seminum issued by the Botanical Garden is published electronically every two years. Nearly all departments of the Botanical Garden participate in the seed exchange network. Since 2004, within the framework of the research program of the Department of Natural Flora, work has been conducted on establishing a specialized seed collection of rare and endangered plant species of the flora of Ukraine. This collection includes seeds gathered during field expeditions as well as seeds obtained from ex situ cultivations maintained by various departments, including Natural Flora, Dendrology and Park Science, Cultural Flora, Flowering-Ornamental Plants, Tropical and Subtropical Plants, and the Laboratory of Medical Botany. Currently, the collection comprises 472 species belonging to 82 families. The paper also presents photographs of plants cultivated from seeds obtained through scientific exchange. It demonstrates the practical outcomes of the Seed Laboratory’s activities. Information is also provided about the carpological collection developed within the laboratory. Today, the carpological collection contains 17827 samples belonging to 1630 genera, 7266 species, and 218 families. Possible directions for further expansion and improvement of the carpological collection are proposed. У статті показано роль насіннєвої лабораторії у створенні колекцій рослин Національного ботанічного саду імені М.М. Гришка Національної академії наук України. Підбито підсумки 80-річної діяльності лабораторії у науковому обміні посадковим матеріалом та насінням, проаналізовано участь у цьому різних відділів ботанічного саду. В результаті багаторічного документування реєстр надходження насіння та посадкового матеріалу наразі складається з 98 журналів. Протягом всього часу діяльності наукові контакти підтримувались з понад 600 зарубіжними та вітчизняними ботанічними установами. Активний обмін рослинним матеріалом відбувається з 165 ботанічними установами, звідки надходять заявки на насіння. Більшість наукового обміну насінням здійснюється за участю європейських установ, менше – з ботанічними установами Азії, Північної Америки та Африки. “Index Seminum”, що видається Ботанічним садом, публікується в електронному вигляді кожні два роки. Майже всі відділи Ботанічного саду беруть участь у науковому обміні насінням. З 2004 року в межах наукової тематики відділу природної флори розпочата робота по створенню колекції насіння рідкісних та зникаючих видів флори України. Ця колекція включає насіння, зібране у природі під час експедиційних відряджень співробітниками відділу природної флори, а також відібране на ділянках відділів природної флори, дендрології та паркознавства, квітниково-декоративних рослин, тропічних та субтропічних рослин, нових культур, лабораторії медичної ботаніки. Наразі колекція налічує 472 види, що належать до 82 родин. Представлено фотографії рослин, що вирощені кураторами ділянок з отриманого за науковим обміном насіння. Наведено дані про карпологічну колекцію, що зібрана в насіннєвій лабораторії, та намічено шляхи її подальшого розвитку та вдосконалення. Карпологічна колекція налічує 17827 зразків, що належать до 1630 родів, 7266 видів та 218 родин. M.M.
