Selection Work - General The basic task at this time of year is to work from the Inventories to select the material that is to be prepared for planting and to print out the Seedlists. Often the Bean Nursery has been prepared first, followed by the Isolated Maize Crossing Blocks and GENERIC SEEDS Maize Yield Trials because these can be large and involve more seed counting and other work. Even though the Cereals are planted first, they are usually prepared last because often there are not many changes to be made between the Cereals Inventories and Cereals Seedlists. All of the seedlists are open for additions and changes right up until a week or so after planting. If a single database is being used to store the data for all seed in the storage room, there should be some indication in each

abstract	Selection Work - General The basic task at this time of year is to work from the Inventories to select the material that is to be prepared for planting and to print out the Seedlists. Often the Bean Nursery has been prepared first, followed by the Isolated Maize Crossing Blocks and GENERIC SEEDS Maize Yield Trials because these can be large and involve more seed counting and other work. Even though the Cereals are planted first, they are usually prepared last because often there are not many changes to be made between the Cereals Inventories and Cereals Seedlists. All of the seedlists are open for additions and changes right up until a week or so after planting. If a single database is being used to store the data for all seed in the storage room, there should be some indication in each database record regarding the Nursery the seed came from and the year that the seed was harvested. This is because much of what is planted the next season in a specific nursery is drawn from the previous year's inventory of that same nursery. It is rare to include material from 2 or more years previously or from another nursery. The Seedlists are printed as 8.5 in. x 11 in. portrait size. Selection work - Bean Nursery For the selection work, one can work from either of two ways of listing the inventory so long as one understands the relationship between the two ways of listing. One method of showing the inventory shows the number of plants harvested from each row in the bean nursery. This will be referred to as the Notebook format of the Inventory because the data was recorded in the notebook and the breeder can work with this if desired (See Appendix A). The Notebook format Inventory is either in the form of the Notebook pages or several columns have been deleted and it has been saved as a separate Notebook Inventory database or spreadsheet file. The other type of inventory is a listing of the actual seed of plants harvested and the labeled pedigrees of the seed in each seed packet. This will be referred to as the Label format Inventory (See Appendix B). Since it is the seed that is being kept, use of the word Inventory will refer to the Label format Inventory. The list of seed pedigrees (Label Format Inventory) is the best to work with in terms of making the seedlist but the breeder may find the other type of inventory (Notebook Format) simpler for seeing the big picture. The breeder doing the selecting can work from a printed copy of the Bean Nursery Inventory (either format) or from a computer version if things are properly set up. If the breeder is working with the Label Format Inventory for the Bean Nursery, he will basically be able to tell from the pedigrees and source row numbers how many plants were collected from a particular row. The breeder can then place an x to the extreme left or right of a record to indicate it is not to be included in the seedlist. Material that is to be added can be written in pen at the end of the printed copy of the Inventory that he is working with. This is the basic method that can be resorted to if other methods are not available. The selection work for the Bean Observation rows and Bean Yield Trials is usually done very close to planting time from an Inventory of the bulk seed. The weights of seed available will be needed to determine the number of rows to grow and how long the rows will be.
