It presents some of the latest perspectives about how genetic resources can contribute to achieving food security under the challenge of a changing climate. It aims to highlight some key issues for plant genetic resources management, to demonstrate how perspectives have changed over two decades, and discuss some of the actual responses and developments UR - https://dx.doi.org/10.1079/9781780641973.0000 ER -
