Description

The Millennium Seed Bank was established in 2000 at the Royal Botanic Garden, Kew in the United Kingdom to store seeds from all over the world for avoidance of plant species extinction. The Millennium Seed Bank is promoting an international conservation project “Millennium Seed Bank Partnership", and is working with collaborators in more than 95 countries on seed collections. In Japan, for the first time in 2018, Kyushu University Forest and Faculty of Science of the University of the Ryukyus participated in the Millennium Seed Bank Partnership for the first time, providing seeds and related data to the Millennium Seed Bank. In a two-year tree seed collection project carried out in 2018, 37 species for conservation and 72 species for germination test to evaluate the storage behavior were collected from the Kasuya, Ashoro and Shiiba Research Forests.
