Seeds

Safeguarding Our Future

Carolyn Fry

Description

At a time when the world faces increasing pressures from climate change and biodiversity loss, seeds have never been more important. Highly complex, they have evolved in myriad ways to adapt to their environments.

In this book, the author explores how seed-bearing plants evolved, and unravel the science behind the seed. She looks at the human relationship with flowering plants and shows how scientists around the world are working to gather and bank seeds to save rare and valuable varieties from extinction.
