Ramírez, M.Ortiz, R.Taba SSebastian, Leocadio S.Peralta EWilliams, D.Ebert AVezina, A.[Demonstrating interdependence on plant genetic resources for food and agriculture]Demonstrating interdependence on plant genetic resources for food and agriculture

Soaring prices of fossil fuels, geo-political issues and environmental pollution associated with fossil fuel use has led to worldwide interest in the production and use of bio-fuels. Both the developed and developing countries have developed a range of policies to encourage production of combusti...
