The genomics of local adaptation in trees: are we out of the woods yet?
There is substantial interest in uncovering the genetic basis of the traits underlying adaptive
responses in tree species, as this information will ultimately aid conservation and industrial …

Unique Features of the Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda L.) Megagenome Revealed Through Sequence Annotation
The largest genus in the conifer family Pinaceae is Pinus, with over 100 species. The size
and complexity of their genomes (∼ 20–40 Gb, 2 n= 24) have delayed the arrival of a well …
