Endemic wild potato (Solanum spp.) biodiversity status in Bolivia: reasons for conservation concerns

Original language description

Crop wild relatives possess important traits, therefore ex situ and in situ conservation efforts are essen-tial to maintain sufficient options for crop improvement. Bolivia is a centre of wild relative diversity forseveral crops, among them potato, whichis an important staple worldwide and the principal food cropin this country. Despite their relevance for plant breeding, limited knowledge exists about their in situconservation status. We used Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and distribution modelling with thesoftware Maxent to better understand geographic patterns of endemic wild potato diversity in Bolivia.In combination with threat layers, we assessed the conservation status of all endemic species, 21 in total.We prioritised areas for in situconservation by using complementary reserve selection and excluded 25%of the most-threatened collection sites because costs to implement conservation measures at those loca-tions may be too high compared to other areas. Some 70% (15 of 21
