Genebank catalogues have a huge amount of data, but the most important parameters relating to yield, inbreeding depression and combining ability are missing. New methodologies of practical characterization/ evaluation are needed to fit this "pre-breeWng gap". This paper intends to be one of the first attempts at achieving this goal.
