European Red List of vascular plants (2011, background): “Thus, they are recognized as a critical resource with a vital role in food security and economic stability, as well as contributing to environmental sustainability (PrescottAllen and Prescott Allen 1986, Hoyt 1988, Maxted et al. 1997a, Meilleur and Hodgkin 2004, Stolten et al. 2006).”
Managing biological and genetic diversity in tropical agroforestry (2004, background): “Each of the different conservation approaches has its own advantages and disadvantages and should not be viewed as options but rather should be practiced as complementary approaches to conservation (Maxted et al. 1997; Hawkes et al. 2000).”
Current status of coffee (Coffea arabica L.) genetic resources in Ethiopia: implications for conservation (2008, background): “In situ conservation of genetic resources is a conservation approach that is acknowledged as being complementary to ex situ conservation (Maxted et al. 1997; Dulloo et al. 1998) and its implementation for Ethiopian coffee has long been considered as a national urgency (Tewolde 1990; Paulos and…”
No hay ganancia en la milpa: the agrarian question, food sovereignty, and the on-farm conservation of agrobiodiversity in the Guatemalan highlands (2009, background): “A broad pool of germplasm enables domesticated plants to adapt to environmental change; the loss of crop genetic diversity renders crops vulnerable to evolving pests, emerging plant diseases, and climatic variation (Wilkes 1992, Maxted et al. 1997, Brush 2004).”
Defining and identifying crop landraces (2005, background): “This indicates that landraces are more inherently dynamic than cultivars as they are maintained through repeated cycles of sowing, harvesting and replacement seed selection by farmers (Maxted et al., 1997; Qualset et al., 1997)within complex informal systems.”
Towards a definition of a crop wild relative (2006, methodology): “Although applied widely to identify practical conservation and use targets, the Harlan and de Wet (1971) concept does have limitations (Maxted et al. 1997b): for instance, it necessarily requires an approximation of the relative ease of hybridisation between the crop and the wild relative and it…”
The longevity of crop seeds stored under ambient conditions (2009, background): “At that time the Russian botanist and ecologist Nicolai I. Vavilov was one of the first to recognize that our plant genetic resources are in particular danger and need to be conserved for the future (Maxted et al., 1997).”
Ex situ genetic conservation of endangered Vatica guangxiensis (Dipterocarpaceae) in China (2002, background): “In such cases, ex situ conservation is needed to preserve a species that has gone to extinction in nature (Maxted et al., 1997).”
