Trees are key ecosystem engineers. Many analyses of the genetic diversity of forest trees
over substantial parts of their distributional ranges are appearing. These studies are of …

Aim To assess the effect of local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity on the potential
distribution of species under future climate changes. Trees may be adapted to specific …

A lack of paleobotanic studies with adequate resolution and multiproxy approaches has
limited proper discussion of vegetation dynamics in Cantabria and of the role of fires in the …

Aims We present an analysis of grid‐based species‐richness data for European plants,
mammals, birds, amphibians and reptiles, designed to test the proposition of Hawkins et …

To infer the role of natural selection in shaping standing genetic diversity, it is necessary to
assess the genomewide impact of demographic history on nucleotide diversity. In this study …

Forests provide important ecosystem services and renewable materials. Yet, under a future
climate, optimal conditions will likely shift outside the current range for some tree species …

We investigated range‐wide phylogeographic variation in three European ash species
(Fraxinus sp., Oleaceae). Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) microsatellites were typed in the …

European black pine (Pinus nigra Arn.) is a widely distributed Mediterranean conifer. To test
the hypothesis that fragmented populations in western Europe survived in situ during the last …

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

Extant rear‐edge populations located in former glacial refugia remain understudied despite
their high conservation value. These populations should have experienced strong genetic …
