  value: 10.32614/CRAN.package.brapiR2
abstract: Provides pipe-friendly, stateless read access to the Breeding API ('BrAPI')
  v2.1 specification, an open community standard for plant breeding data interchange
  maintained by the BrAPI project <https://brapi.org>. Wraps 32 of the 37 'BrAPI'
  v2.1 entities across all four modules, Core, Germplasm, Phenotyping, and Genotyping,
  covering 49 of the specification's 138 retrieval ('GET' and search) endpoints and
  returning tidy tibbles ready for analysis. Write and update endpoints are out of
  scope by design. Features include automatic pagination, async search handling, response
  caching, parallel batch fetching, and convenience functions for genomic selection
  workflows (e.g. dosage matrix extraction). Designed for plant breeders and bioinformaticians
  who need programmatic access to plant breeding databases that implement the 'BrAPI'
  v2 specification.
