This module describes the nature of genetic resources for food and agriculture and outlines why these resources are essential for climate-smart agriculture. After a brief description of the expected impacts of climate change on genetic resources for food and agriculture, the module highlights the...
Landraces contain many genotypes, which makes them a good source of genes for crop improvement and hence provide an incentive to conserve them. Banana sampling and collection were carried out along the Uganda–Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo) border, which is home to the largest in situ div...
Yam plays a critical role in providing good quantity and quality yield and source of income to combat the challenge of food insecurity in the tropics. Although significant advances in science and technology have improved efficient management and improvement of their genetic resources, the mission...
The development of on-farm conservation of agro biodiversity is of particular significance in inaccessible, fragile, and risk-ridden mountain areas, such as the Garhwali Himalayan Region in India. Having experienced the negative impact of conventional institution-led breeding programs (that negli...
This paper deals with advocacy for effective participatory crop improvement and plant genetic resource enhancement. First, the need for advocacy is highlighted; second, cases on the community-managed process of managing plant genetic resources is discussed. Advocacy is public action directed towa...
Conserving the genetic diversity of potato is critical for the long-term future of potato improvement programs. Further, it is the social and ethical responsibility of the present generation to ensure future generations have the same opportunities to use, exploit, and benefit from the genetic div...
