Version 1In-situ conservation on-farm is a diverse and complex topic, and as a result any training guide can not cover every detail of the disciplines involved. Instead, this guide is geared to give national programmes basic technical skills and tools to build institutional capacity and partnersh...

A training guide for in-situ conservation on farm
Many species of African traditional vegetables are poorly known, being used only locally. They are difficult subjects for conventional agronomic study, often being cultivated in small patches in domestic gardens or growing as weeds in marginal areas within farms or wild in forest areas. However, ...
In recent years it has become evident that there is no single publication that provides the prospective collector of plant germplasm with generic as well as specific, and theoretical as well as practical, information. It was to fill this gap that IPGRI, together with FAO, IUCN and UNEP, cooperate...

What is the relevance of smallholders' agroforestry systems for conserving tropical tree species and genetic diversity in circa situm, in situ and ex situ settings? A review
In this paper authors discuss how to adapt the methodology of wild plant ecogeographic studies when dealing with cultivated species. They show that the model presented by Maxted et al. 1995), with a few changes in emphasis and detail, proves robust enough to be applied to crops. Particular focus ...

An ecogeographic study of cowpea and Bambara groundnut and their wild relatives (Vigna Savi) in Africa is presented; as circumscribed, the African taxa comprise 61 species and 63 subspecific taxa. The taxonomy, genetic diversity and use of wild and cultivated African Vigna, as well as the African...

In light of the growing concern over the potentially devastating impacts on biodiversity and food security of climate change and the massively growing world population, taking action to conserve crop wild relatives (CWR), is no longer an option it is a priority. Crop wild relatives are species ...
