Yield Trends Are Insufficient to Double Global Crop Production by 2050
PLoS ONE, 2013 Several studies have shown that global crop production needs to double by 2050 to meet the projected demands from rising population, diet shifts, and increasing biofuels consumption. Boosting crop yields to meet these rising demands, rather than clearing

Crop genetic erosion: understanding and responding to loss of crop diversity.
New Phytologist, 2021 Crop diversity underpins the productivity, resilience, and adaptive capacity of agriculture. Loss of this diversity, termed crop genetic erosion, is therefore concerning. While alarms regarding evident declines in crop diversity have been raised for over
