The GGBN 2012 Plenary Meeting, chaired by Gabi Droege, addressed critical gaps in DNA data standards, specifically focusing on ABCDDNA implementation and its compliance in Phase I. Strategies were developed for creating a DarwinCore DNA extension, including forming a TDWG task group with key stakeholders. The meeting proposed the expansion of the DNA Bank Network brand, advocating for the adoption of a portal to enhance functionality. Key outcomes included a commitment to develop unique identifiers for communities and collections, and a draft of the new standard is anticipated by October 2012.
