discuss the major accomplishments, gaps and limitations towards the 2010 Global Strategy for
Plant Conservation (GSPC). A questionnaire on plant conservation nationally was distributed
among the authors of this paper to be completed for their respective island(s). Additionally, we
reviewed the accomplishments towards the 2010 GSPC for each independent country including
the latest National Reports to the United Nation’s Convention on Biological Diversity and
additional literature. |
