Nibbles: USDA NPGS, Korean seed museum, Endangered plants, National security, Sicilian grapevines, Mike Jackson again

  1. A way to get free seeds from the US government? Yeah probably not. And if so, maybe not for long?
  2. Ok, let’s try the Korean government then.
  3. A way to find endangered plants in the US. And get the government to protect them, of course.
  4. A way to ensure national security? Why, conserving crop diversity of course. Government unavailable for comment.
  5. A way to ensure the future of Sicilian wine? See above.
  6. A genebanker looks back on the 1990s. And, given all of the above, sees that not much has changed?
