Plant Breeding And Development

Well March has gone and thoughts turn to watching the seeds germinate of last year’s selections.

Look out for some new plants next month.

If you are a plant breeder then you might be interested in a BBC News article about the international illegal collection of seed as a breeder or collector you might be collecting yourself or buying in seed to use in your breeding and selection programmes, you need to be aware of this illegal trade and the Nagoya Protocol or you could find all your hard work is for nothing.
