The UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Target 2.5 explicitly calls for the maintenance of genetic diversity of seeds through soundly managed and diversified seed and plant banks at national, regional, and international levels as an essential undertaking to end global hunger (SDG Goal 2). This special issue results from a renewed call to demonstrate the value-in-use of conserving and supplying plant genetic resources conserved in genebanks to researchers, plant breeders, and farmers. We present these studies as a collective contribution to a relatively small body of literature that highlights not only the importance of crop plant diversity managed by genebanks but also the diversity of genebank functions and uses. In this overview, we begin by restating foundation concepts that economists have applied to study the value of crop genetic resources conserved as genebank accessions. We then provide a synthesis of previous research on genebank values from the late 1990s until the present. We summarize the main messages of the studies included in this special issue of Food Security and explain how they contribute to a better understanding of the role, function, and value of genebanks, particularly as we address food security challenges in a changing agricultural context. Finally, we draw implications for further applied research and policy.

评估基因库

联合国可持续发展目标 (SDG) 目标 2.5 明确呼吁通过在国家、区域和国际层面进行妥善管理和多样化的种子和植物库来维护种子的遗传多样性,作为消除全球饥饿的一项基本任务(可持续发展目标目标 2) . 本期特刊源于再次呼吁向研究人员、植物育种者和农民展示保存和提供保存在基因库中的植物遗传资源的使用价值。我们将这些研究作为对相对较少的文献的集体贡献来呈现,这些文献不仅强调了基因库管理的作物植物多样性的重要性,而且还强调了基因库功能和用途的多样性。在这个概述中,我们首先重申经济学家用于研究作为基因库种质保存的作物遗传资源价值的基础概念。然后,我们综合了从 1990 年代后期到现在的基因库值的先前研究。我们总结了本期《粮食安全》特刊中包含的研究的主要信息,并解释了它们如何有助于更好地理解基因库的作用、功能和价值,尤其是在我们应对不断变化的农业环境中的粮食安全挑战时。最后,我们对进一步的应用研究和政策产生影响。我们总结了本期《粮食安全》特刊中所包含研究的主要信息,并解释了它们如何有助于更好地了解基因库的作用、功能和价值,尤其是在我们应对不断变化的农业环境中的粮食安全挑战时。最后,我们对进一步的应用研究和政策产生影响。我们总结了本期《粮食安全》特刊中所包含研究的主要信息,并解释了它们如何有助于更好地了解基因库的作用、功能和价值,尤其是在我们应对不断变化的农业环境中的粮食安全挑战时。最后,我们对进一步的应用研究和政策产生影响。
