Seed conservation: seed storage behaviour, longevity and practicalities

Seeds of some species can be stored dry for decades, hundreds or, perhaps, thousands of years. We take advantage of this when we store seeds from year-to-year, to plant in our gardens, but also when we store seeds in seed (gene) banks. This talk will give an overview of seed conservation science, including some of the practicalities of collecting and storing your own seeds.
