They bring together work from 19 countries, covering 13 crops and embrace an impressive range of different experimental approaches. They have several unique features:    * Linking of PPB and PGR themes    * Bringing farmer breeders and farmer collaborators directly into the debate    * Broadening theme discussion beyond breeding per se-to ancillary services concernsTo be effective, and to achieve institutionalization, PPB has to draw beyond insights and methods of breeding per se and address key “ancillary concerns”. Two of these, Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) and Seed Production for PPB are reported within this synthetic volume.
