Abstract
A collecting mission was launched in August 2024 to the southern territory of Siberia. Its primary goal was searching for and collecting new valuable samples of plant genetic resources in the places of their natural habitation and cultivation in order to add them to the collections of the National Center for Plant Genetic Resources. The diversity of indigenous berry plants was explored, covering such plant families as Rosaceae, Caprifoliaceae, Grossulariaceae, Elaeagnaceae, Viburnaceae, Berberidaceae, and Ericaceae. The collected materials contained aggregately 57 samples of seedlings representing Rubus idaeus L., R. sachalinensis Levl., Fragaria vesca L., F. mandshurica Staudt, F. viridis (Duchesne) Weston, Ribes altissimum Turcz., Vaccinium uliginosum L., V. myrtillus L., and V. vitis-idaea L., 4 seed samples of Hippophae rhamnoides L. (3 samples) and Lonicera caerulea L. (1 sample), and 269 herbarium sheets of 20 species belonging to Rubus L., Fragaria L., Ribes L., Grossularia Mill., Hippophae L., Vaccinium L., Lonicera L., Berberis L., and Viburnum L.
