To register abbreviations for additional species, send them to the GrainGenes curators, curator@pw.usda.gov. Suggestions for ambiguous cases, from Wanlong Li:
The species and subspecies should be arrayed alphabetically and 
the first unique letter in the species or subspecies be taken as the 
second or the third letter of BAC clone name. For T. turgidum subsp. 
dicoccoides, it will be TTD; for T. turgidum subsp. dicoccum, it will be 
TTU; for T. turgidum subsp. durum, it will be TTR.
