The ‘OnFarmFinland’ project has resulted in a web-based information service containing knowledge of Finnish landraces and old commercial varieties of some agri- and horticultural plants. In the first phase, knowledge of cereals and potatoes is provided. The ‘Landrace Information Service’ (MaatiaisTietoPankki 2011) is part of the web-site of the national PGR programme in Finland at the portal of MTT Agrifood Research Finland. The information service is targeted for present landrace farmers, hobby-gardeners, agrarian museums and other organizations, and private persons interested. The information is expected to be useful in restoring historical gardens and fields, in building demonstration gardens, in education uses, in development of niche... |

The results confirm that blackcurrant is a good source of anthocyanins. However, remarkable variation in the anthocyanin content between varieties is evident. The anthocyanin profile is always dominated by four major anthocyanins, yet some variation appears in their relative proportions. The high anthocyanin content is usually most desirable in the blackcurrant products and this study shows that the choice of variety may have a great impact on it. |

Owners of the manors have multiplied the biodiversity of horticultural plants in Finland by importing the seeds and seedlings abroad to their gardens over the last three hundred years. For many reasons in manor gardens are only some of these heritage plants left, like roses, perennials and ornamentals shrubs. We have developed a method for gathering knowledge of original plants in historic gardens and for rediscovering and repatriating them as heritage plants back to the gardens. This method includes an inventory of the existing cultural flora, search for the lost vegetation (so called run-a-away-plants) and gathering the cultural knowledge of the plants. In our case study we rediscovered several original plant strains originating from Jokioinen... |
