ECONOMIC BOTANY STANDARDS for CROP WILD RELATIVES Presentation for PGR Forum Workshop 5 8 September 2004 Terceira prepared by Maria Scholten, Shelagh Kell, Nigel Maxted and Brian Ford-Lloyd
ECONOMIC BOTANY STANDARDS for CROP WILD RELATIVES - Outline - • View some economic botany databases from the perspective of crop wild relatives • Compare use classifications • TDWG as proposed standard? • Recommend use standards for PGR Forum
EXAMPLES OF EARLY USE CLASSIFICATIONS: Hegi 1931, Zhukovsky 1964, Schlosser et al. 1991 1. Cereals, legumes (starch/sugar) 2. Fruits 3. Vegetables 4. Oil plants 5. Dyes, resin etc 6. Fibre 7. Wood 8. Animal food 9. Medicinal /poisons 10. Ornamental (11. Narcotic/stimulating)
ECONOMIC BOTANY DATA COLLECTION STANDARD “TDWG” (Cook 1995) Example 1: Carrot (Daucus carota L.) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 13 13 8+20+24 Food additives Roots Specific Plant parts used (8 descriptors): roots Food additive types (20 descriptors) : colourings Preparations used in (24 descriptors): ice cream Example 2: Hierochloe odorata (L.) P.Beauv. Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 13 4 83+20 Social uses ‘Religious’ Uses Plant part used (83 descriptors): entire Specific Social use types (20 descriptors): ritual/religion/magic
APPLICATIONS OF TDWG Database / publication Extent of use New York Botanical Gardens level 3 partly MEDUSA level 1 - level 2 adapted FAO (Plantinfo and Ecocrop) level 1 FLORA CELTICA (RBGE) modified levels 1 and 2 SEPASAL (RBGK) completely ILDIS LegumesWeb level 1 only Wild useful plants of Russia completely USDA (Wiersema) level 1 and 2 only Sources: TDWG Economic Botany Subgroup Report Summary 1999 MEDUSA: Chris Johnson personal communication
TWO TYPES OF USE STANDARDS: • Economic botany (TDWG prevalent) • Use in the context of Red Listing DATABASES TO BE COMPARED: World: GRIN - world - crops and first gene pool relatives MWD - world - crops and wild relatives Specific or regional: SEPASAL - semi-arid and arid areas - wild and semi-domesticated MEDUSA - Mediterranean - wild (potentially) useful plants ILDIS - world - legumes Russian CWR database - European crop wild relatives
GRIN: 16 gene source subcategories Query: Genetic Uses = 'all subclasses’ 760 hits Query: Genetic Uses = 'for crop progenitor’ 43 hits Query: Genetic uses = ‘for ornamental cultivars’ 267 hits Query: Genetic Uses = 'for crop relative’ 186 hits
Plant use queries on: “Breeding” 268 hits “Gene source” 1 hit “Scientific use” 27 hits Mansfeld’s Full text queries on: “gene donor” 0 hits “wild relative” 5 hits
SEPASAL: OVERVIEW USES AT TAXON LEVEL: the 3 levels in TDWG
SEPASAL: OVERVIEW OF SUB-CATEGORIES WITHIN MAJOR USE: GENE SOURCES 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
IUCN utilization authority file (version 1.0): 1. Scale of usage: proportion of total (global) population in use 2. Purpose of use: subsistence / national /international: 16 use categories 3. Forms removed from the wild: whole/parts 4. Source of specimen in commercial trade (in %) wild or other 5. Trends in offtake or harvest (increase /stable / decrease) 6. CITES status (Appendix I, II or III or not listed)
Local Regional Global Historical Actual Potential Geographical scale Dimensions of use Trends in use Time
COMPARISON OF DIFFERENT STANDARD SYSTEMS GENERAL OVERVIEW USE CATEGORY LEVELS LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 LEVEL 3 GRIN 16 111 - MWD 45 - - TDWG 13 101 (HUNDREDS) IUCN 16 - -
GRIN level 2: TDWG level 2: beneficial genetic traits TDWG level 3: 1. All uses 1. other beneficial genetic traits 2. Cold tolerance 2. cold tolerance 3. Crop quality - 4. Cytoplasmic male sterility - 5. Disease resistance 3. disease resistance 6. Drought resistance 4. drought resistance 7. Dwarfing - 8. High yield 5. high yields 9. Metal tolerance - 10. For ornamental cultivars - 11. Pest resistance 6. pest resistance 12. Poor-soil tolerance - 13. Progenitor of crop - 14. Related to crop - 15. Research in plant biology - 16. Salt tolerance 7. salt tolerance 17. Waterlogging tolerance 8. waterlogging tolerance
IMPLEMENTATION IN TDWG - PROPOSAL MAJOR CATEGORY SUBCATEGORY DESCRIPTORS LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 LEVEL 3 gene source close crop relative used as graft distant crop relative used as rootstock remote crop relative used as hybrid parent tested for breeding potential for breeding wild harvested semi-natural semi-domesticated
