Maximizing genetic representation in seed collections from populations of self and cross-pollinated banana wild relatives

Maximizing genetic representation in seed collections from populations of self and cross-pollinated banana wild relatives

Abstract Background Conservation of plant genetic resources, including the wild relatives of crops, plays an important and well recognised role in addressing some of the key challenges faced by humanity and the planet including ending hunger and biodiversity loss. However, the genetic diversity and...
