Abstract Purpose of Review Recognizing that in the context of global change, tree genetic
diversity represents a crucial resource for future forest adaptation, we review and highlight …

Research Highlights: the wide variety of multispectral sensors that currently exist make it
possible to improve the study of forest systems and ecosystem services. Background and …

We studied the genetic differentiation, structure, and diversity of Scots pine populations in
Lithuania based on nuclear, chloroplast microsatellite, and mitochondrial DNA markers. We …

Measuring and monitoring tree diversity is a prerequisite for altering biodiversity loss and the
sustainable management of forest ecosystems. High temporal satellite remote sensing …

Rates of biodiversity loss remain high, threatening the life support system upon which all
human life depends. In a case study, a novel biodiversity composite index (BCI) in line with …

Understanding tree species responses to climate change is crucial for preserving
biodiversity especially in Southern Europe hot spots where Abies alba is widely spread …

Key message Moderate to high genetic diversity and formation of at least three genetic
groups were found for Dalbergia nigra; however, the analyses indicate vulnerability of some …

Delivering material selected for breeding purposes into the wild in the context of sustainable
forest management might reduce the levels of genetic diversity of future forests in …

Since its first introduction in the 19th century, Douglas-fir has become the economically most
important non-native forest tree species in Central European countries. Many of these …

Genetic diversity helps to survive forest trees in several environmental changes and disease
conditions. Different forest management activities such as harvesting, thinning, natural or …
