In pursuit of its mission to restore the American chestnut tree, the Foundation operates a program to breed genetically diverse, disease-resistant strains. This activity is conducted largely by volunteers in twenty states. dentataBase was created to house the data generated by this program, standardizing collection and centralizing access. It facilitates better analysis, more coordinated efforts, and more accurate tracking of genealogy. The system currently tracks nearly half a million planted trees at over 700 sites, along with information about their lineage and field observations on dozens of traits. Data may be entered via online forms or batch imported from spreadsheets. Data export and reporting functions are also provided.
