  • Genetic Diversity and Erosion in Plants

    Indicators and Prevention

    Edited by M. R. Ahuja, S. Mohan Jain ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Genetic erosion is the loss of genetic diversity within a species. It can happen very quickly, due to catastrophic events, or changes in land use leading to habitat loss. But it can also occur more gradually and remain unnoticed for a long time. One of the main causes of genetic erosion is the replacement of local varieties by modern varieties. Other causes include environmental degradation, ... Read more
