Diverse gene pools are fundamental to crop improvement, biodiversity maintenance and environmental management. The UKCropDiversity-HPC high-performance computing resource enables seven UK institutes to perform plant and conservation research with increased efficiency, cost-effectiveness and environmental sustainability. It supports research across numerous areas, including bioinformatics, genetics, phenomics and conservation – including Artificial Intelligence approaches. Its utilisation supports many United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, including Goals-2 (Zero Hunger), −13 (Climate Action), −15 (Life on Land), −9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure) and −4 (Quality Education). Accordingly, UKCropDiversity-HPC helps maximise the societal impact of research undertaken at our seven institutes, driving positive change for future generations.
