More Brogdale discussion

LATER: See also Lorenzo’s comment to Danny’s post for more information on what’s going on in the European apple world.

Fresh Nibbles

    1. The Lebanese and Syrian genebanks in the news. For good reasons, for now at least.
    2. Wild American apples should be more in the news. And probably more 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.
