The CIMMYT Maize Germplasm Bank: genetic resource preservation, regeneration, maintenance, and use

Originally developed as background information for participants in a 1992 external review of the CIMMYT Maize Germplasm Bank and related activities, this publication recounts CIMMYT's role in the early work of marshalling maize genetic resources, tells how the materials collected have been utilized, summarizes current activities of the Maize Germplasm Bank, and describes directions in which CIMMYT activities on maize genetic resources are evolving to encourage more effective and widespread use of bank accessions.
