Importance of agriculture for Crop Wild Relatives conservation in Switzerland
bioRxiv, 2022 Crop Wild Relatives are a subset of the global plant diversity that is often neglected, as not the primary focus for conservationists or plant breeders. However, a relatively large portion of the wild flora, up to 60% in Switzerland for example, do share

Conservation status assessment of banana crop wild relatives using species distribution modelling
Diversity and Distributions: A journal of biological invasions and biodiversity, 2021 Crop wild relatives (CWR) are an essential source of genetic material for the improvement of certain traits in related crop species. Despite their importance, increasing public, scientific and political support, large gaps exist in the amount of genetic ...

Genomic and environmental selection patterns in two distinct lettuce crop-wild hybrid crosses [PDF]
, 2013 Genomic selection patterns and hybrid performance influence the chance that crop (trans)genes can spread to wild relatives. We measured fitness(-related) traits in two different field environments employing two different crop–wild crosses of lettuce.

A Crop Wild Relative Inventory for Mexico [PDF]
Crop Science, 2018 Crop wild relatives (CWR) are valuable sources of variation for the genetic improvement of crops. Mexico is an important center of diversity of crops and CWR. However, this diversity is threatened by climate change, habitat degradation, increasing human population, among other factors.
