The OECD LIST OF VARIETIES ELIGIBLE FOR CERTIFICATION is an official list of varieties which have been accepted by National Designated Authorities of participating countries as eligible for certification in accordance with the rules of the OECD Seed Schemes.

These varieties satisfy Distinctness, Uniformity and Stability conditions (D.U.S. tests), having an agronomic value, and already been published in the official list of one --or several-- participating countries.

The OECD List of Varieties is revised annually on the basis of information provided by National Authorities. For each variety, the List includes details of the maintainer(s) and the country(ies) where the variety has been registered.

The OECD List comprises varieties eligible for certification according to the OECD Seed Schemes; vegetable varieties are not part of the List.

The List is usually published in December each year.

The 2007/2008 List, issued in December 2007, includes about 42 000 varieties from 194 species . The bilingual text English-French is available below:
