Material Type:	printed text

Keywords:	Agricultural  crops,  conservation,  on  farm,  red  list  category,  red-listing  criteria
Abstract:	Red listing mechanism has been developed for wild fauna and flora. There are several documents illustrating red listed wild fauna and flora. But there is a lack of information on the red list and red listing criteria of agricultural crop species, varieties or landraces. For initiating on- farm, in situ and ex situ conservations, red listing is helpful in locating region of crop species, varieties or landraces diversity. The paper reviewed the red listing criteria used for the categorization of wild fauna and flora. Categorization of on-farm crop species, varieties and landraces is based on population, ecological, social, modernization and use criteria. Among them ecological, social and modernization criteria are useful in selecting location for sampling materials for ex situ conservation and appropriate sites for in situ conservation. Modernization and use criteria are suitable for categorization of crop genotypes. Combinations of these criteria are proposed for red listing crop genotypes and areas.
