  • A seed bank (also known as a seed bank or seed bank) is a form of gene bank that saves seeds to conserve genetic variety. Seeds should be stored for a number of reasons.
  • One goal is to protect the genes that plant breeders require to improve crop output, disease resistance, drought tolerance, nutritional quality, flavour, and other characteristics.
  • Another goal is to preserve biodiversity ex situ by preventing the loss of genetic diversity in uncommon or endangered plant species.
  • Many plants that people utilized millennia ago are no longer used; seed banks provide a mechanism to preserve their historical and cultural importance.
  • Seed collections kept at a consistent low temperature and low moisture protect genetic resources that are otherwise kept in situ or in field collections from being lost.
  • Natural catastrophes, disease outbreaks, and conflict may all devastate these alternate "living" collections.
