Agriculture = big change... From Collectors/Hunters to farmers!

Gradually, we domesticated plants and animals based on our needs

+ = New type of Collector Vavilov´s expeditions around the world showed the importance of diversity to genetic breeding. Beginning of plant genetic resource efforts

WHY ? Germplasm Exchange There is no country self-sufficient in genetic resources New pests (insects and diseases) Climate Change Preventive Breeding Existing variability is not enough

HOW ? Germplasm Exchange Look for what you really need Interesting sources: CGIAR Centers ( EURISCO ( GENESYS ( ARS/USDA ( Be prepared to give something back, because it is an exchange ! Give feedback to the genebank manager – it is important

Sharing a successful experience Germplasm Exchange Brazil imported the US soybean collection = accessions Brazil imported the US rice collection = accessions USA and Brazil = different rules Labex Genetic Resources = presence in US

Brazil: Germplasm Exchange Embrapa :

Major Challenges we faced Germplasm Exchange Quarantine (need to be very well planned in advance) Availability of seeds and sample preparation (time) Justify why we requested the entire collections (soybean and rice)

Final Remarks Germplasm Exchange It is bureaucratic (phytosanitary certificate, legislations) It is possible Germplasm Exchange is IMPORTANT!!! Institutions – experience and capacity Benefits are well recognized MKTPlace – if the project includes germplasm exchange start dialogue ASAP

Thank you!
