In situ method of conservation Rashmi M G

Aims of in situ conservation To ensure continued access to these populations for research and availability of germplasm . Ensuring continued access to or availability of material of target species populations that are exploited by local people as in the case of medicinal plants, extracted products and fuel wood. Selection for yield potential, i.e. Genetic potential that confers desirable phenotypic traits . Conserving species which cannot be established/ regenerated outside their natural habitats such as species that are members of complex ecosystems. Enabling some degree of conservation of associated species which may or may not be of known economic value and which may be of importance in maintaining the healthy functioning of ecosystems .

Conclusion In situ conservation is a biodiversity conservation strategy focused on protecting species and their habitats within their natural environments. This approach involves preserving ecosystems and natural habitats to ensure species survival and thriving in their native environments. Examples include national parks, wildlife sanctuaries, and biosphere reserves.
