IPGRI maintains a number of databases with summary information on ex situ germplasm collections worldwide. The data include address information on organizations holding germplasm and summary information on the type of germplasm that is maintained, such as: species names, number of accessions per ...

At least 25 species of root and tuber crops from 16 genera and 15 families are native to South America. Apart from the 7 species of potato (Solanum spp.), there are nine lesser known species native to the Andes that are grown for their edible underground organs and are traditionally, but not excl...

There is a wide spectrum of options for genetic resources exchange systems. The report considers the possible structure of a more formal approach. It presents a flexible multilateral framework - referred to as the Multilateral System for Exchange (MUSE) - that would be governed by mutually agreed...

This publications provides an approach by which conservationists can determine whether or not long-term seed storage is feasible for a particular species, i.e. whether or not that species shows orthodox seed storage behaviour. It provides advice on the implementation of the protocol, examples of ...

In October 1995, IPGRI organized a small workshop on the use of molecular techniques in the conservation of plant genetic resources. One area of discussion was the considerable range of different molecular techniques available and the ways in which they could best be used. Deciding on which techn...

This guide is the second volume of a series of three that deals with the conservation of forest (tree and shrub) genetic resources. It is focused on the conservation of forest genetic resources in situ. Its main aim is to demonstrate the benefits attainable through genetic conservation, and to pr...
