摘要: Abstract The Millennium Seed Bank Project is an international plant conservation initiativepresently focused on the ex situ of endangered, endemic and economicspecies in world’s drylands. This paper discusses process identifyingpriorities for seed banking from over 5000 dryland species Kenya. Local herbariumdata were combined with records use literature to assess value andconservation need at level. With measurable outcomes, thisapproach identifying priority could be applied elsewherein Africa. Resume Identification des especes prioritaires dans les regions seches de Kenya pourconservation le Projet Millenium Bank.
