Los Manuales de Bioversity para Bancos de Germoplasma se han concebido para proporcionar información práctica a los curadores de los bancos y a otro personal que trabaja en ellos. El presente manual es una traducción de la versión original publicada en inglés en 2003. Este manual no pretende ser ...
The publication is aimed at curators and other genebank staff. It is meant to be a discussion guide, to provide ideas and suggestions on how management procedures can be improved, and to point to possible implications of a given management procedure. It does not aim to provide a definitive theory...

In situ conservation and sustainable use of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture in developing countries: Report of a DSE/ATSAF/IPGRI Workshop, Bonn-Rottgen (Germany) 2-4 May 1995
Plant species that are vegetatively propagated, that have long life cycles and/or produce nonorthodox seeds are traditionally maintained in field collections. Maintaining plants in the field is costly and carries high risks of loss; therefore, the strategies and procedures employed to establish a...
