Sommario/riassunto |
|
Based on the 2010 conference 'Towards the establishment of genetic reserves for crop wild relatives and landraces in Europe', this book is the cutting-edge discussion of agrobiodiversity conservation. By considering the benefits of understanding and preserving crop wild relatives and landraces, it encompasses issues as wide-ranging and topical as habitat protection, ecosystem health and food security. ""Agrobiodiversity Conservation"" focuses on Europe, but is globally relevant. It is suitable for postgraduate students of conservation and environmental studies, conservation professionals, poli |
