The forage genetic resources activities at ILCA located in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, focus on the acquisition, maintenance, characterization, evaluation, and distribution of forage germplasm for development and utilization as livestock feeds. The genetic resources required for forage development are...

Comparative analysis of key aspects of community seed banks: function and activities
Crop wild relatives (CWR) play a key role in providing genetic diversity for crop adaptation and improvement and their in situ conservation is the most appropriate action to safeguard them, as it allows new diversity to be generated. Knowledge about contemporary evolutionary processes, adaptive r...

This paper presents an effective method for prioritizing areas within a country for acquisition of germplasm of a crop gene pool for ex situ conservation. The method was applied to the rare wild pepper species, Capsicum flexuosum Sendtn., in south-east Paraguay. A model to prioritize areas for co...

Use of GIS for optimizing a collecting mission for a rare wild pepper (Capsicum flexuosum Sendtn.) in Paraguay
The conservation of plant genetic diversity underpins the future of agriculture and food security and is critical to ensure the ability of future generations to cope with global environmental changes. Yet plant genetic resources, including those of horticultural crops and their wild relatives, ar...
