Alpine forest genomics—advances in the research field and perspectives ahead

Abstract Key message Alpine or mountainous forest genomics research is rapidly moving from classic population genetic studies toward exploring population environmental adaptation to address climate vulnerabilities. For alpine conifers in particular, future progress in sustainable...

Rethinking common gardens for forest tree species in the face of climate change

Abstract Key message Maintaining forest resilience under climate change depends on understanding genetic adaptation and preserving diversity. Long-term common garden networks are essential for revealing how species and populations perform across life stages and environments. When...
