Conservation of Threatened Plants of India

Development of appropriate scientific principles and their application of these principles to develop technologies for the maintenance of biological diversity are two main goals of conservation biology. Although the origin of plant conservation is traced back to the beginning of agriculture when farmers started saving selected seeds for future use, conservation biology as a scientific discipline evolved only in the late 1970s. The realization that there is a need to save all the species to halt biodiversity loss has made conservation biology a frontline scientific discipline in the recent years.
