Intraspecific variation plays a critical role in extant and future forest responses to climate
change. Forest tree species with wide climatic niches rely on the intraspecific variation …

Evolutionary responses are required for tree populations to be able to track climate change.
Results of 250 years of common garden experiments show that most forest trees have …

Aim The aims of this study were to assess the distribution of putative Mediterranean refugia
of plants, to compare the locations of refugia and those of regional hotspots of plant …

Phylogeography, born to bridge population genetics and phylogenetics in an explicit
geographic context, has provided a successful platform for unveiling species evolutionary …

Aim Palaeoecological reconstructions document past vegetation change, with estimates of
fast shifts in species distributions. The resulting rates of plant spread are often not matched …

The current distribution of forest genetic resources on Earth is the result of a combination of
natural processes and human actions. Over time, tree populations have become adapted to …

The increasing aridity during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has been proposed as a
major factor affecting Neotropical species. The character and intensity of this change …

Common walnut (Juglans regia L) is an economically important species cultivated
worldwide for its high-quality wood and nuts. It is generally accepted that after the last …

Background and Aims The hypothesis of an ancient introduction, ie archaeophyte origin, is
one of the most challenging questions in phylogeography. Arundo donax (Poaceae) is …

This paper provides a review of theoretical and practical aspects related to genetic
management of forest trees. The implementation of international commitments on forest …
