A problem of the rich: Prioritizing local plant genetic resources for ex situ conservation in Israel

2008-02-01

Abstract excerpt

A priority list of 323 plant species was created through a consultative process for ex situ conservation in the recently inaugurated Israel Plant Gene Bank (IGB). The IGB is set up to preserve plant genetic resources and the endangered genetic variability of the Israeli flora. Upon its inauguration, we consulted with the country's leading plant breeders and botanists in an attempt to create a list of the most impo...
