Time to get moving: assisted gene flow of forest trees
SN Aitken, JB Bemmels - Evolutionary applications, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Geographic variation in trees has been investigated since the mid‐18th century. Similar
patterns of clinal variation have been observed along latitudinal and elevational gradients in …

Will plant movements keep up with climate change?
RT Corlett, DA Westcott - Trends in ecology & evolution, 2013 - cell.com
In the face of anthropogenic climate change, species must acclimate, adapt, move, or die.
Although some species are moving already, their ability to keep up with the faster changes …
