http://orgprints.org/9440/ Adaptation to Climate Change and the Role of Agrobiodiversity Kotschi, Johannes Food security, food quality and human health Breeding, genetics and propagation Biodiversity and ecosystem services The world’s biological diversity is eroding. This concerns in particular the entire agri-cultural diversity of genes, species and their agrarian ecosystems, the resource base for food. With species becoming extinct, mankind is jeopardised. With climate change becoming reality, genetic resources are getting a new value as they are of vital impor-tance for adaptation. This calls for a revision of present conservation approaches. Emphasis has to be placed on in-situ conservation in order to allow a maximum of species conserved and to enable species adaptation to environmental change. 2007 Conference paper, poster, etc. NonPeerReviewed application/pdf http://orgprints.org/9440/1/9440_Kotschi_Poster.pdf Kotschi, Johannes (2007) Adaptation to Climate Change and the Role of Agrobiodiversity.
