Ex-situ conservation of the germplasm of aquatic organisms
This paper summarizes some of the major issues relating to ex-situ conservation of the germplasm of aquatic organisms and gives examples of some current activities and future possibilities
Down to earth thoughts on conserving aquatic genetic diversity
A discussion is presented on the topic of maintaining genetic diversity in aquatic ecosystems, considering the various threats caused by irreversible damage or loss to the environment. The current situation in aquaculture and future prospects regarding the conservation and protection of endangered species are outlined, describing the case of tilapias in Africa as one particular example of fish conservation
Genetics and aquaculture in Africa
Les arrangements concernant l'accès et la propriété des ressources génétiques aquatiques sont bien moins développés que ceux concernant les ressources génétiques pour l'agriculture, en particulier en ce qui concerne les plantes. Quoi qu'il en soit, des définitions de propriété et d'accès plus régulés aux ressources génétiques aquatiques sont prévisibles suivant la tendance observée pour les plantes et le bétail. La plupart des pays ont nationalisé leurs ressources génétiques à travers la convention sur la diversité biologique, et les tentatives pour privatiser les ressources génétiques vont croissant à travers la cession de brevets et autres mécanismes de propriété intellectuelle ainsi qu'à travers les droits des fermiers, éleveurs et populations indigènes. Ces développements sont revus avec des références aux recherches et développements en aquaculture incluant les approches prises par l'Iclarm. Les possibilités futures de propriété et d'accès aux ressources génétiques sont discutées. (Résumé d'auteur
