Crop wild relatives include crop ancestors as well as other species more or less closely related to crops. They are a critical source of genes for resistance to diseases, pests and stresses such as drought and extreme temperatures. The use of wild relatives has led to improved resistance to wheat...
Los Manuales de Bioversity para Bancos de Germoplasma se han concebido para proporcionar información práctica a los curadores de los bancos y a otro personal que trabaja en ellos.

Les espèces sauvages apparentées aux plantes cultivées comprennent les ancêtres des plantes cultivées ainsi que d'autres espèces plus ou moins proches. Elles constituent une source stratégique de gènes de résistance aux maladies, aux ravageurs et aux stress tels que la sécheresse et les températu...
Los parientes silvestres de cultivos incluyen tanto a los antepasados de los cultivos como a otras especies más o menos estrechamente vinculadas con ellos. Son una fuente vital de genes de resistencia contra enfermedades, plagas y factores de estrés como las sequías y las temperaturas extremas. E...

Although numerous studies of diversity have been conducted in cassava, there is no comprehensive assessment of global genetic diversity. Here we draw on previous studies and breeders’ knowledge to select diversity sets from the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) and the Intern...
