 361 <p>Different crosses in the same trial/nursery/project are grouped via “<strong>crossing experiment</strong>”. Crossing experiments are organized based on their breeding programs. To find a crossing experiment, you can either type the crossing experiment name in the “Search” box, or look for the crossing experiment directly in its breeding program by clicking on the “<strong>+</strong>” icon. In each breeding program, crossing experiments can be placed directly in the breeding program, or organized in folders. The “<strong>Folders</strong>” section allows you to place crossing experiments in folders, move a crossing experiment in a folder to another folder, or rearrange your folders within a breeding program.</p>

 433 <p>There are two interfaces for this step, either “Not Using Lists” or “Using Lists”. Depending on if you already have a list of female and male accessions to use, you can decide on which interface to use. The end result of using either interface is the same.</p>
 434 <p><img src="assets/images/cross_wishlist_initial_dialog.png" width="95%" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /></p>
 435 <p>We will start by showing “Not Using Lists”. First select the trial in which the crosses are to be performed. This will populate a select box with all the accessions used in that trial. From here, one or many accessions can be selected as the female accession.</p>
 436 <p><img src="assets/images/cross_wishlist_not_using_list_01.png" width="95%" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /></p>
 437 <p>Once the female accessions are selected, a table is populated. Each row in this table begins with the female accession that was selected, followed by a select box with all the accessions used in the trial. From here, one or many accessions can be selected as the male to use in the cross.</p>
 438 <p><img src="assets/images/cross_wishlist_not_using_list_02.png" width="95%" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /></p>
 439 <p>Once the male accessions are selected to cross with each female accession, a table indicating priorities appears. Priority is meant to indicate an order in which to attempt the cross; first the highest priority male will be considered, but if this cross is not possible then subsequent males will be considered. An equal priority can be given and this will not indicate a specific order to follow.</p>
 440 <p><img src="assets/images/cross_wishlist_not_using_list_03.png" width="95%" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /></p>
 441 <p>Alternatively, we could have used the “Using List” interface instead. Here we select the trial in which the crosses will be performed and we provide a list of accessions to consider for the females and the males to be crossed.</p>

 446 <p>After selecting your lists, the table below is populated. The first column has all the female accessions specified and the header row has all the male accessions specified. The males to consider crossing with each female are indicated with priority.</p>
 447 <p><img src="assets/images/cross_wishlist_using_list_02.png" width="95%" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /></p>
 448 <p>After female and male accessions are selected to cross, either by the “Nor Using List” or “Using List” interface, click Next. The next dialog will allow selection of specific female plots to use for the cross. Sections for each female accession selected will appear with the field layout displayed. Selecting all plots in which the female is present indicates that the cross should be performed on all plots where that female accession is present.</p>

 453 <p>Clicking “Push Cross Wishlst for ODK Use” will send the cross wishlist plan to the ONA server for use by the mobile ODK application. Crosses can then be performed and recorded in the field using the mobile application. Afterwards, the crosses are sent back to our database and stored.</p>
