  1. The Lebanese and Syrian genebanks in the news. For a good reason.
  2. Wild American apples should be more in the news. And probably in genebanks.
  3. Community seed banks could be good news in fragile states.
  4. Good news for India’s banana diversity. Yes, it now has a genebank!
  5. All those genebanks need breeders, like Mina Nešić.
  6. Genebanks are nice of course, but it’s even better news when the agrobiodiversity gets out and about.
