I will appreciate to receive information about the actual ex-situ collections in Africa, specially for eucalyptus, pinus and araucarias. I know the state of the collections in Congo (C.N.R.F ex CTFT) but not for the other countries. Can you help for the actual state of the collections,socio-economical impacts, actual state of the research etc...

And if material is exchanged, is it done in the form of seeds, in vitro, Cuttings, scions??? This information will help us in developing Technical Guidelines for the Safe Movement of Eucalyptus Germplasm. Thank you.
