The application of genetic markers such as allozymes and DNA (Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid) markers has shown to be useful in studying genetic diversity in humans, animals and plants (Cruzan, 1998). This section of this manual attempts to give guidelines for choosing appropriate molecular tools for t...

Policy and institutional frameworks for the conservation and use of plant genetic resources might be in place in many countries although with a variable degree of effectiveness and efficiency. In particular, the performance of existing organizations and institutions at the management and legal le...

This book focuses on the previously neglected interface between the conservation of plant genetic resources and their utilization. Only through utilization can the potential value of conserved genetic resources be realized. However, as this book shows, much conserved germplasm has to be subjected...
