Resumen
Descripción
Conservation is the management of genetic resources so that they can provide the greatest sustainable yield to benefit the present generations while preserving their potential to meet the needs and aspirations of future generations (IUCN 1980). More than 70% of the people of Nepal still depend largely on forests for medicines and other products. Thus, conservation and sustainable utilization of forest genetic resources (FGR) is very important for Nepal, for the present as well as for the future.
