Plant Genetic Resources
Plant Genetic Resources refer to the genetic material found in plants that is valuable for agriculture and biodiversity. This includes seeds, tissues, and genes from various plant species, which can be used to improve crop varieties, enhance resistance to diseases, and adapt to changing climates.
Conserving Plant Genetic Resources is essential for food security and sustainable agriculture. By preserving a wide range of plant genetic diversity, scientists and farmers can ensure that future generations have access to the necessary traits for growing resilient and productive crops.
