Studying the genetics of adaptation to new environments in ecologically and industrially
important tree species is currently a major research line in the fields of plant science and …

Plant–animal interactions are fundamentally important in ecosystems, but have often been
ignored by studies of climate-change impacts on biodiversity. Here, we present a trait-based …

Studies of genetic adaptation in plant populations along elevation gradients in mountains
have a long history, but there has until now been neither a synthesis of how frequently plant …

Molecular evolution offers an insightful theory to interpret the genomic consequences of
thermal adaptation to previous events of climate change beyond range shifts. However …

Drought will reduce global crop production by> 10% in 2050 substantially worsening global
malnutrition. Breeding for resistance to drought will require accessing crop genetic diversity …

Some of the largest impacts of climate change are expected in the environmentally
heterogeneous and species rich high mountain ecosystems. Among those, the Neotropical …

Grafting induces precocity and maintains clonal integrity in fruit tree crops. However, the
complex rootstock× scion interaction often precludes understanding how the tree phenotype …

Studying and understanding the evolution of relictual natural populations is critical for
developing conservation initiatives of endangered species, such as management in situ and …

Plants are particularly sensitive to climate change in alpine ecosystem of the Tibetan
Plateau. The various mountain micro-climates provide a natural gradient for space-for-time …

Grafting is typically utilized to merge adapted seedling rootstocks with highly productive
clonal scions. This process implies the interaction of multiple genomes to produce a unique …
