Description |
Genetic resources of crop plants include genepools of both domesticated and wild species. They arc the reservoir.;f useful genes. which could be of immense use for the genetic improvement of crops. During the past three decades awareness has been generated to identify. collect and conserve the fast depleting and irreplaceable crop genetic resources for use by present and future gencmtions. AccorJing to Vavilov (1926). about 160 species of domesticated plams have originated in India. Among these. ~pices constitute a very important group of plants, which had its origin in India. These arc high value crops with potential for large-scale cxport. Hence. it is imperative to collectcand conserve the germ plasm of spice crops. |
