Biodiversité et viabilité de l'agriculture paysanne dans la Réserve de Biosphère Sierra de Manantlán, Mexique by Enrique J. Jardel Peláez, Sergio H. Graf Montero, Eduardo Santana C., Ricardo Ávila Palafox

“…The case of the Biosphere Reserve Sierra de Manantlán (SMBR), a mountainous region of western Mexico, shows both the potential and limitations of protected areas to conserve agro-biodiversity, i.e. the variety of both cultivated and wild species, and the different agro-ecosystems and associated habitats in the rural landscape. The conservation of the téosinte Zea diploperennis and other wild relatives of cultivated plants, of land-races of traditional crops such as corn and other species and habitats associated with the agricultural landscape, has been one of the goals of the SMBR since its foundation 25 years ago. …”
