There is growing recognition that sustainable intensification of agricultural production systems and their successful adaptation to changes in climate will depend upon the improved access to, and use of, genetic diversity. This paper analyzes how the collection, use and distribution of plant gene...

How policies affect the use of plant genetic resources: the experience of the CGIAR
Although community-level seed-saving initiatives have existed in many countries around the world for about 30 years, they have rarely been the subject of systematic scientific enquiry. Based on a combination of a literature review and field research, we present a novel comprehensive conceptual fr...

A policy analysis to promote conservation and use of small millet underutilized species in India
Latin America is home to dramatically diverse agroecological regions which harbor a high concentration of underutilized plant species, whose genetic resources hold the potential to address challenges such as sustainable agricultural development, food security and sovereignty, and climate change. ...

Conservation and use of genetic resources of underutilized crops in the Americas - A continental analysis
This article analyses 25 years of data about international movements of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture (PGRFA), facilitated by the gene banks hosted by seven centres of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research. It identifies trends in the movements of PGRFA ...

Twenty-five years of international exchanges of plant genetic resources facilitated by the CGIAR genebanks: a case study on global interdependence
Peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) has had a central place in the livelihoods of people in
the Americas since pre-Columbian times, notably for its edible fruits and multi-purpose
wood. The botanical taxon includes both domesticated and wild varieties. Domesticated var
gasipaes is believed to der...
