At a time when the world faces pressures from climate change and biodiversity loss, seeds have never been more important. Here, we see how seed-bearing plants evolved, and unravel the science behind the seed. It also shows how scientists are working around the world to gather and bank seeds to save rare and valuable varieties from extinction.
