Genebank Peer Reviews: A powerful tool to improve genebank quality and promote collaboration

Genetic Resources
The conservation of plant genetic resources (PGR) is critical to ensuring global food security and agricultural sustainability. Genebanks play a vital role in ex situ conservation, complementing in situ strategies by preserving crop diversity (incl ...

Envisaging an Effective Global Long-Term Agrobiodiversity Conservation System That Promotes and Facilitates Use

Plants, 2021
Genebanks were established out of a recognised need not just to provide genetic variation to support breeding objectives but to prevent crop diversity from being lost entirely for future users. Such conservation objectives may have led, over the past few

Genetic Aspects and Molecular Causes of Seed Longevity in Plants—A Review

Plants, 2022
Seed longevity is the most important trait related to the management of gene banks because it governs the regeneration cycle of seeds. Thus, seed longevity is a quantitative trait.

Genomics-informed prebreeding unlocks the diversity in genebanks for wheat improvement

Nature Genetics, 2022
The great efforts spent in the maintenance of past diversity in genebanks are rationalized by the potential role of plant genetic resources (PGR) in future crop improvement—a concept whose practical implementation has fallen short of expectations.
