AI-generated Abstract
This slim volume by Hoklen, Peacock, and Williams discusses the importance of preserving crop plant germplasm, especially as it relates to combating the loss of genetic diversity caused by modern agricultural practices. It emphasizes the need for expanding collections of wild relatives of crops and highlights the limitations and challenges of current germplasm preservation efforts. The book advocates for a more integrated approach to crop improvement that addresses both environmental protection and poverty alleviation, while also suggesting that advances in DNA analysis could significantly enhance the efficiency of germplasm collection and curation.
