A DNA bank is a repository of DNA, usually used for research or criminal investigation. The NIAS DNA Bank, for example, collects the DNA of agrucultural organisms, such as rice and fish, for scientific research. Most DNA provided by DNA banks is used for studies to attempt to develop more productive or more environmentally friendly agricultural species. Some DNA banks also store the DNA of rare or endangered species to ensure their survival.
