Welcome to T3/Barley
The Triticeae Toolbox (T3) is the web portal for data generated by the Triticeae Coordinated Agricultural Project (T-CAP), funded by the National Institute for Food and Agriculture (NIFA) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). It also contains data from US Uniform Regional Nurseries, supported by the US Wheat and Barley Scab Initiative. The database was initially developed as The Hordeum Toolbox (THT) at the website hordeumtoolbox.org to hold barley data generated by the Barley CAP project (2006-2010). T3 Barley is an extension of The Hordeum Toolbox and incorporates all the THT data. The database was further developed at the website triticeaetoolbox.org/barley. That website was archived in June 2020 and all the data moved to this current site.

Phenotype data can be submitted to T3/Barley in two ways:
Submitting files directly to us
If you have upload templates that you think are properly formatted or data files that are not formatted as upload templates, you can submit the files directly to use for inclusion in the production site by submitting them to us through the Phenotype Submission Form.
Phenotype Submission FormUsing the Sandbox
When using the sandbox, you create upload templates that contain the trial information. Then, you upload those templates to the Sandbox to check for any errors. When the trial has been successfully added you can use the Submit Trial function to submit the trial directly to us for inclusion in the production site. Visit the T3/Barley Sandbox for more information.

If you have genotype data you would like to submit to T3/Barley, please use the Genotype Submission Form. This will ask you some questions about the data and then you can upload a VCF file of the data. We'll make sure the file is properly formatted, the correct genotype protocol is used for the data, and add the genotype data to the database.
