Planning the quantities to collect from one population and across the range of species will improve the chance of maximizing the genetic diversity of the conservation collection. Maintain maternal lines separately to help approximate potential genetic diversity and allow flexibility for use in future conservation translocations. Collect no more than 10% of a population’s seed crop in a single year and no more than 5 years out of 10.Type
