Bamboo - Conservation, diversity, ecogeography, germplasm, resources utilization and taxonomy: Proceedings of training course cum workshop, 10-17 May 1998, Kunming and Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China
On-farm (in situ) conservation of cultivated plants refers to the management of landraces/cultivars and the occasionally cultivated wild relatives (as in the case of fruit species like mango) in the very place where they developed their present-day characteristics. Fruit tree varieties and relate...
