Plant Genetic Resources Management for Sustainable Development

Abstract:

The appearance of agriculture roughly 10,000 years ago disrupted the ecological balance of numerous systems. Fortunately, the process of domesticating plants and animals and the spread of agriculture were slow enough to allow a new equilibrium to emerge. Plant genetic resources include primitive forms of cultivated plant species and landraces, modern cultivars, obsolete cultivars, breeding lines and genetic stocks, weedy types and related wild species, which provide the building blocks that allow classical plant breeders and biotechnologists to develop new commercial varieties and other biological products. Therefore, it is obviously very important to manage plant genetic resources for sustainable development in all of country. This article describes the management of plant genetic resources from conservation to utilization, introduces the status of international cooperation for sustainable development and perspectives that the significant plant genetic resources management for sustainable development in the future.
