Cooperating to make the best use of plant genetic resources in West and Central Africa: a regional imperative
Plant genetic resources form the basis on which humankind subsists. They provide basic needs and help solve problems such as hunger and poverty. However, they are being lost, mainly through inappropriate use and destruction of habitat. Given their vital importance, we must conserve them for the b...
