Notas do Editor
… ongoing efforts to develop and implement a sustainable strategy for PGR conservation in the Region
Many constraints such as replacement of traditional by commercial varieties, but most importantly… scarcity of water
Genetic variation is key component of biodiversity
With the objective of guiding investment decisions of the Trust. … focused on ex situ conservation in genebanks
These outputs have been at least partly accomplished
- … ICARDA genebank
Two photos taken within days of one another (in Bangladesh and in Kenya). Unpredictability.
Maps are from Burke et al recent paper. This map is for maize area. Dark blue grid cells have total overlap with climate of past 10 years, dark red cells have absolutely no overlap. Some countries – Tanzania have good overlap. Others – Mali, Niger, very poor overlap. WITHIN COUNTRY. Need to source material from other countries, not currently conserved in genebanks. Farmer varieties – landraces – with inherent genetic diversity, will be better able to adapt, and are very poorly represented in collections.
Holistic approach to PGR conservation Particularly important when unpredictable changes of climate
-data on ensuring effective collection of agrobiodiversity. Mapping of Phaseolus wild relative records, from many different data sources, combined with eco-geographic data. Zones in the map indicate places in which the species is likely to exist and no genebank accessions have been collected. Inset shows greatest species richness in Mexico.
Increasing adaptedness through the choice of provenances that demonstrate high survival and/or phenotypic performance under given environmental conditions Provenance (common garden) field trials since 1840 Geographic patterns of variation Growth and survival rates strongly influenced by climate
