Yadav, R.K.Gurung, R.Dhakal, R.Adhikari, A.R.Gautam, S.Ghimire, K.H.Sthapit, B.R.[On-farm diversity assessment and participatory varietal evaluation of cold-tolerant rice in mid-hills of Nepal]On-farm diversity assessment and participatory varietal evaluation of cold-tolerant rice in mid-hills of Nepal

Jethobudho is an aromatic rice landrace of the Pokhara valley in middle hills of Nepal. Although local consumers are willing to pay a high price for its purchase, the landrace has a problem with quality variation. Decentralized participatory population improvement for specific market-identified t...

Almost all the current commercial mango cultivars in India are the result of selection from the natural seedling population and majority of them have been selected by the farmers.The conventional breeding system with traditional knowledge is evolving more and more towards preservation of genetic ...

This paper reviews and discusses how studies on (i) on-farm diversity assessment, (ii) access to diversity and information, (iii) extent of use of available materials and information, and (iv) benefits obtained by the farmer or farming community from their use of local crop diversity, are necessa...

Asia, the Pacific and Oceania region is very rich in genetic diversity of tropical fruits. Although, fruits have always been important agricultural species, it is only in recent years that there is an increasing awareness of the potential of native tropical fruit species as good sources of dietar...

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...

Chawali and Lekali are two common farmer�s barley varieties or landraces in Jumla, Nepal (2,240�3,000 m) with small to bold grains and wide adaptation from irrigated low lands to high hills. This study was undertaken to test whether features of the traditional seed system can significantly influe...

The definition provided by the Convention on Biological Diversity for in situ conservation has caused a dilemma for those involved in agrobiodiversity conservation, as to how to implement this strategy in practical terms. A diversity of organizations has been engaged in efforts referred to as on-...
