BANK OF SEEDS OF NATIVE PLANTS IN THE PFNBQM
Fundamentals
The natural landscape in the metropolitan area of \u200b\u200bBuenos Aires has been transformed through various spatial processes, such as perforation, dissection, reduced surface patches, disappearance and fragmentation of remaining areas (as phenomena indicating Forman, 1995).
The process of fragmentation is one of the gravest moment since it prevents flow of animals and plants from the remaining areas.
By reintroducing native plants in urban or suburban habitat is restored wild animals and can be restored lost face, linking the areas of local cultivation of conservation units, reserves, national parks.
Native plants represent part of regional heritage and there are different approaches to their approach:
- Diversity: to discover new organisms in the classroom or institutional space
- Cultural: to interact with custom, and history imaginary River Plate,
- identity: as we propose links with local searches original landscape,
- Utility: many useful native plants (ornamental, edible, medicinal, textiles),
- Ethics: Being Man is responsible for conserving other species,
- Environmental: since the landscape provides many services of nature (soil conservation, water storage, climate regulation).
Although abundant literature on native plants (Barbetti, 1982; Cabrera, 1963-70; Demaio, et al., 2002; Haene and Aparicio. 2001; Muñoz, et al., 1993, among others) is not abundant information on the cultivation of these plants. The work culture of the species to be propagated can be recorded and complement existing publications of which may be assumed to have elements suggested starting point (Haene and Aparicio, 2001; Burgess and Nardini, 2009; Valle, 1977). Objectives
• Create a bank of seeds and other plant propagules River Plate and boosting local banks in other regions of the country.
• Disseminate local plant species.
· Disclose techniques for growing these species. • Consolidate the PFNBQM
and its mission.
• Design a sampling of seeds and fruits of species River Plate.
• Generating links with institutions and gardeners, naturalism and plants. Background
· Bank of germplasm in institutions. Cast seeds
· event (souvenirs).
· Fairs exchange and sale organized by NGOs and government agencies. Key Concepts
· Species native: one's own region of the Rio de la Plata.
· Species Alien: those originating in other natural regions, even in the Argentine territory.
· Bank of seeds, seed collection to disseminate local species and genetic conservation. Operation
• Presentation of the order of seeds.
• Presentation of destination tab (see attached).
· Shipping culture data (optional).
· provide seed and other materials native Rio de la Plata.
Other possible actions to develop
· Coordination with Native Landscape Network (Aves Argentinas / AOP).
Design of educational brochures.
· Infographics and adequate signage.
• Information on the website of the group of volunteers, blogs and other neighboring institutions belonging.
• Training in crop and seed conservation. Team
· Group Volunteers Aves Argentinas / Ornithological Association del Plata.
· Technicians NGO Trees Without Borders.
· Technicians of PFNBQM.
· buffs topic.
· Schools and other local institutions.
collection and distribution sites
• The seed bank of native species work as a network managed from the Native Flora Park Quinquela. • The network will
collection and distribution nodes whose mission is to receive and store input from seeds donated from each region and deliver them to those requesting it. Each node will be headed by a senior volunteer identified by an address e-mail and / or telephone number for queries and orders.
· The operations of reception and delivery of seeds will be free of charge, unless requested by the posting, in which case they agree the cost of the transaction between the subject and the node. Stockpiled
· The seeds must be identified with the species name, date of collection and expiry. Nodes
• As an initial step suggests the following nodes: Node

Once established the mode of operation will seek to expand the network by establishing nodes in all regions of the country's natural.
be ensured that this network also operates as cultivation experience sharing through the Native Plant Forum of Argentina and Uruguay.
For the dissemination of this initiative and as a means of recruiting volunteers and donors responsible nodes, used among others the following means:
· Newsletter
· Message Aves Argentinas personal to each of the COAs
· Invitation through the Web page and group forum
• Communication to other related entities
Other places for observation and harvesting (With permission)
The network will be enriched with other harvest sites where planned to complement the collection include:
· Book City Los Robles del Pilar
· Book
· Book Municipal Vicente López
· Book Costanera Sur Ecological
· Garden Carlos Thays Botanical
· Park Tres de Febrero (Palermo)
