Genetics Catalog Management

The Genetics Catalog gives you complete control over your plant genetic material with flexible naming and source tracking.

What’s Included

Full CRUD Operations

• Create new genetics entries with free-form scientific names
• Edit existing genetics information
• Track vendor source and origin type (seed, tissue culture, cutting, etc.)
• Admin-only delete with usage validation

Smart Scientific Names

Scientific names support any naming convention including complex hybrids:

• Free-form text field (no rigid taxonomy)
• Fuzzy word autocomplete using Tab key completion
• Inventory name auto-generated with conflict resolution

Culture Parameters

Store genetics-specific culture information:

• Optimal subculture interval
• Expected multiplication rate
• Max generations before genetic drift
• Rooting and hardening durations
• Care instructions

Source Tracking

• Link genetics to vendors (where you got it)
• Track origin type (how it was propagated)
• Your organization is automatically available as a “self” vendor

List View Enhancements

• Quick search across all genetics
• Filter by active/inactive status
• See vendor and origin type at a glance
• Row-level actions via dropdown menu

Access Control

Genetics management respects your organization’s role structure. Only admins can delete genetics entries, and the system validates that genetics aren’t in use before allowing deletion.
