Insitu, exsitu protection and multiplication of Albanian rare and endemic species
This project will use a combination of ?ex situ? and ?in situ? techniques for multiplication and reintroduction of three endangered endemic plants in Albania. In order to compensate for the limited propagation power of these plants in vitro tissue culture techniques will be used for their multiplication. After preparation and acclimatization plants will be reintroduced in their original habitats. Awareness raising activities, publications, posters and leaflets, T-shirts carrying pictures of the endemic plants will be produced in an effort to protect the original habitats.
