This page provides an overview of the most commonly used ABCD elements with short explanations and sample values. If you're looking for a complete list of ABCD elements, please refer to the full documentation at the ABCD Wiki.
Mandatory fields are marked with an asterisk. If you don't provide them, the element - and potentially non-mandatory sibling/parental elements - will be removed from the ABCD document.

ContentContact | *Name | Person, person team responsible for curation of your DNA Bank | Gabi Droege |
Description/Representation | *Details | Short text to describe the focus and number of samples in your DNA collection. It should include the following phrase: The DNA bank is part of the Global Genome Biodiversity Network (GGBN) which was founded in 2011. The network provides a technically optimized DNA collection service facility for all biological research accessible via one central web portal. The network promotes deposition of well documented reference DNA samples after project completion or data publication from scientists of other universities and institutions. | The DNA bank of the Botanic Garden and Botanical Museum Berlin-Dahlem holds currently a collection of 20000 plant DNA and tissue samples growing constantly. Its core collection focuses on the flora of Germany but it comprises botanical samples collected worldwide. |

Sample data
The sample identifiers
We use identifier the same way as GBIF does. In addition to the traditional triple ID (see below) you can also provide the GUID. Please note that UnitID should be unique in one database! Mostly the extraction number is used for it.
Group | Element | Remarks | Example |
---|---|---|---|
Unit | *SourceID | short description of relevant collection | should be "DNA Bank" or "tissue collection" |
Unit | *SourceInstitutionID | short name/abbreviation of relevant institution | BGBM |
Unit | *UnitID | DNA extraction number or tissue number | DNA 123 |
Unit | UnitGUID | sample record GUID | f6c7fd5a-2f04-4dcb-ba38-0230bf196d30 |
