Plant Genetic Resources Conservation and Utilization: The Accomplishments and Future of a Societal Insurance Policy

2006-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Concerns about the genetic erosion of crop genetic resources (CGR) were first articulated by scientists in the mid-20th century and have since become an important part of national policies and international treaties. The C-8 (Plant Genetic Resources) section of the Crop Science Society of America (CSSA) was created in 1990 in response to these concerns. Over the last 50 yr, both ex situ and in situ conservation ha...
