In situ plant genetic resources in Europe: landraces

This report details the work of Farmer’s Pride project partners to create the largest ever produced database of in situ maintained landraces.  It has a total of 19,335 records, including forage, cereal, pulse and garden crops and fruit trees. As the first example of an inventory for an entire region of the world, it can serve to better plan landrace conservation activities and policies.
