Abstract: Authors: Heli Fitzgerald, Anna Palme, Åsmund Asdal, Dag Endresen, Elina Kiviharju, Birgitte lund, Morten Rasmussen, Hjortur Thorbjornsson, Jens Weibull<br><br>Aim: To collect data for formulating and prioritizing the Nordic CWR checklist (https://doi.org/10.15468/itkype). <br>Method: The distribution category and the nativity class of the Nordic CWR taxa was recorded. The genepool concept was applied to the CWR taxa related to food and forage crops.<br>Results: The relatedness of wild relatives to the crop (genepool concept) are listed. The distribution data includes indigenous, naturalized foreign or a temporary foreign categories of the priority taxa in each Nordic country. <br> <br>
