In the area of plant breeding, it is important not only to preserve the seeds of the variety being cultivated, but also to preserve all its wild relatives because several wild relatives of different cultivated species of plants seem to have certain resistant characters but their yields are very low. Hence, there is a need to introduce the resistant genes into the high-yielding cultivated varieties.
