2006
de Vicente, M.C. . (International Plant Genetic Resources Institute, Cali (Colombia). IPGRI-Americas)
This publication provides findings of a worldwide survey on DNA banking among international and national plant genetic resources research institutes, botanical gardens, universities and the private sector undertaken by IPGRI. The book also presents considerable evidence of the ways in which DNA banking, by permitting relatively easy transfer and analysis of genetic material, can improve genebank management, plant breeding, conservation, population studies, and many other subjects. It includes articles on DNA storage as a complementary conservation strategy; Platforms for DNA banking; The role of bioinformatics in coordinating conservation efforts; DNA banks: a primary resource for conservation research; Tissue collections as a means of storing DNA: a contribution to the conservation of Colombian biodiversity; DNA banking of animal genetic resources; Opportunities, limitations and needs for DNA banks and a model for DNA banking to enhance the management, distribution and use of ex situ stored PGR
