CERCOSPORIOSES IN ARACHIDE(A. hypogaea) AND GENETIC IMPROVEMENT (Paperback)

Charles Darwin's natural evolution of species, through the haphazard specialization of genes resistant to neopathogens or neopathologies, should no longer be a model for biodiversity conservation. Biodiversity conservation could therefore be based on the genetic improvement of susceptible seed genes. This technique would play a major role in reinforcing biological diversity, by preserving both obsolete seeds and "predatory" neopathogens through gene reconstruction, in a context of climate change.
