CromoCat is a plant chromosome database that evolved from previous versions, as a repository of karyological information on the vascular flora of the Catalan Countries. CromoCat is designed as an independent database, managed by a team based at the University of Barcelona directed by J. Simon, available from its own webpage ( http://www.cromo.cat/ ) and from the Flora section of the Catalan Biodiversity Database - BDBC ( http://biodiver.bio.ub.es ). CromoCat contains at present (mid 2022) more than 68,000 records of karyological data belonging to more than 5000 taxa. A synthesis of the development of CromoCat, its functional system, achievements, limitations, and adopted solutions, during 25 years (1996-2021) and updated 2022, as well as the application to biodiversity conservation and management are outlined.
CromoCat 是一个植物染色体数据库，由之前的版本发展而来，是加泰罗尼亚国家维管植物核型信息的存储库。CromoCat 被设计为一个独立的数据库，由巴塞罗那大学的一个团队管理，由 J. Simon 领导，可从其自己的网页（http://www.cromo.cat/）和加泰罗尼亚生物多样性数据库的植物区系部分（http://biodiver.bio.ub.es）获得。截至 2022 年年中，CromoCat 目前包含超过 68000 条核型数据记录，涉及 5000 多个分类群。本文概述了 CromoCat 在 25 年（1996-2021 年）的发展历程、功能系统、成就、局限性和所采用的解决方案，以及在生物多样性保护和管理中的应用。
