01 The organism
One species.
A shared genomic commons.
Taraxacum kok-saghyz—rubber dandelion—produces natural rubber in its roots and can be cultivated in temperate regions.
This portal gathers reusable TKS genomic resources from different projects in one searchable, citable catalog. The Ohio State collection opens the portal; future curated submissions will expand it across accessions, methods, and research groups.
