Conclusions The conservation of plant genetic resources makes sense both economically and ecologically. There should be a fully integrated strategies combining in situ conservation and ex situ preservation, with focus on the former. Governments should ensure that conservation of plant genetic resources forms an integral part of economic, social and environmental objectives at both national and local levels. Governments should develop national strategies for conservation of plant genetic diversity. Such strategies should be based on knowledge of national plant genetic resources, including their values to local communities and their values in wider regional and global contexts. A key requirement for in situ conservation is the identification and protection of key sites and the establishment of effective protection, which normally will involve the participation of local communities. Organisations holding ex situ plant genetic resources should establish equitable benefit sharing agreements with the countries and communities from which their holdings have originated.

Ex situ and on farm conservation and the formal sector K. HAMMER 1 Introduction Whereas ex situ conservation is closely connected with the formal sector, it is not so easy to indicate linkages between on farm conservation and the formal sector. This is a field which has still to be developed. But there are strong indications that increasing cooperation is necessary to cope with the global problem of genetic erosion. Ex situ conservation and the formal sector Ex situ conservation is generally done by the formal sector using genebanks. This well known relation will be explained demonstrating the achievements of the Gatersleben genebank. Fifty years ago the Institute of Crop Plant Research was founded within the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Society (now: Max-Planck- Society) of Germany. An integral part of this institute has been from the beginning a collection of plant genetic resources (Hammer 1993b, Hammer and Begemann 1993, Hammer and Gäde 1993). Scientists in Germany have been early aware of the importance of genetic resources for plant breeding (e.g. von Proskowetz 1890, Schindler 1890, see also Lehmann 1990). In 1914 E. Baur published the key paper on "The importance of primitive landraces and wild progenitors of our crop plants for plant breeding" (Baur 1914). Baur was influential with respect to scientific thought in Germany. In the 20ies he himself was greatly influenced by the convincing new ideas and concepts of N.I. Vavilov. But only long ager his death in 1933 the above indicated institute was founded in 1943 with the included plant genetic resources collection definitely as a basis for plant breeding under the first director H. Stubbe (Stubbe 1982) in Vienna (Austria). During the war the institute was transferred to the Harz Mts. in the centre of Germany and just after the war it came to the nearby village Gatersleben where it is still located. The developing of material in this plant genetic resources collection, since the beginning of the 80ies called genebank, is shown in table 1. 1 Author's address: I nstitute of Plant Genetic and Crop Plant Research (I PK) Corrensstr. 3 06466 Gatersleben Germ any
