A strategic framework for the implementation of a European Genebank Integrated System (AEGIS). Discussion paper.
2008
How can existing genebanks in Europe operate more rationally if the available financial and human resources remain at their current capacity? One of the ways to improve efficiency and effectiveness and to ensure rational ex situ conservation and use of plant genetic resources in Europe is through the sharing of tasks, based on an active collaboration among genebanks in the long term. A feasability study to address this challenge was conducted in 2004-2006 within the framework of the ECPGR. The objective of the study was to come up with a set of recommendations on how to develop a European genebank integrated system based on analysis of organizational, technical, legal and financial aspects. The analysis was made within four pilot crop working groups (Allium, Avena, Brassica and Prunus), each with a wide range of partners participating from different countries. This publication is one of the main outputs of the study.
