  • "Examines agriculture's genetic history and projects its future. The narrow, and therefore vulnerable, genetic base of several important crops is explored, as well as current attempts to preserve the seeds of scarce plant varieties."@en
  • "Notes that advanced agricultural crop technologies developed to ensure food for the world also threaten the supply of food for the future beacause as hybrids are used more, traditional strains die out and the plant gene pool dwindles. Visits Ethiopia, Greece, and Peru to examine the genetic heritage of foods and worldwide efforts to save the seeds that plant breeders use to create better crops."
  • "Examines agriculture's genetic history and projects its future. The narrow, and therefore vulnerable, genetic base of several important crops is explored, as well as current attempts to preserve the seeds of scarce plant varieties. Features specific crop production methods and concerns in Ethiopa, Greece and Peru."@en
  • "Using the history of the potato as an example, points out that the decline in variety of food species and the reliance on fewer strains is placing the world's food supply at risk. Shows what research is underway in commercial laboratories and natural habitats to preserve plant genetic diversity."@en
