2004
This guide is the third volume in a series of three that deal with the conservation of forest (trees and shrubs) genetic resources. This volume addresses technical requirements, and some applied approaches and experiences with the ex situ conservation and management of forest genetic resources. It outlines the role of ex situ conservation and reviews some of the strategies that may be employed: the managed development of ex situ populations, as well as storage methods, in the field and in seed banks, for ex situ genetic resources. It has chapters on (1) Integrated approaches for ex situ conservation and use of forest genetic diversity; (2) Methodologies for ex situ conservation; (3) Sampling strategies; (4) Ex situ conservation through selection and breeding; (5) Establishement and management of Ex situ conservation stands and (6) Ex situ conservation through storage and use
