Search Help
Use the following menus to search for accessions in the database:

This menu offers you the possibility to browse the whole database, moving from one to page the other.
Here you will see how AfricaRice accession numbers are named (starting from WAB0000001 to WAB0022273 and plus).
The system uses wildcards (*) so you can simply type the starting string to be much closer to the result you expect.
- Per accession Name
In this search menu you need to type the name of the accession fully or part of the accession name to be searched. The system uses wild cards to search for the beginning clause or the containing clause.
For example : if you type in the text box WAB450 and you enter, the system will list all the accessions starting with WAB450, likeWAB450-11-1-1-P1-HB,WAB450-I-B-P-106-HB etc. or it list also accession with the name containing the same string.
You do not need to add wild cards when typing the string to search for.

WAB450%
or this %WAB450%
But type simply this:
WAB450
And the system does the rest for you.
