The major problem is that care has to be taken to record all prior existing varieties as a proper registration process is initiated. In fact, only some hundreds of varieties have been actually registered, the others being pre-existing. From now on, the formal process will ensure a central register is compiled from hybridizer submissions. The rules in the Code, a large volume which dictates what the Registrar has to do, are somewhat daunting and hybridizers should contact the Registrar for advice when points of concern arise.
