90 Green Revolution 2.0: Plant Genetic Resources and the Future of Food Production

Food production both in quantity and safety are one of the main concerns of our times. Plant genetic resources will play an important role in these areas and will be one of the sources of secure future food production. It will be very important to the crop science community to be aware of efforts in that direction.
