В монографии отражены результаты многолетних исследований разнообразных
характеристик семян и шишек сосны обыкновенной. Представлены многомерные …

Individual plants provide a habitat patch for foragers where the sought‐after resources (eg
leaves, fruits and seeds) are clustered in locally dense aggregations. Characteristics of …

Understanding the dynamics of selection is key to predicting the response of tree species to
new environmental conditions in the current context of climate change. However, selection …

Epigenetic mosaicism is a possible source of within‐plant phenotypic heterogeneity, yet its
frequency and developmental origin remain unexplored. This study examines whether …

The intentional movement of tree genotypes, or assisted migration, is an operational
approach proposed to adapt forest management to climate change. Assisted migration …

Seed size is a relevant predictor of seed survival, seedling phenotype and species
recruitment and it is generally accepted that larger seeds give rise to seedlings with …

Abstract Background and Aims Sub-individual variation in traits of homologous structures
has multiple ecological consequences for individuals and populations. Assessing the …

Prescribed fire has been widely used as a fuel reduction tool and silvicultural treatment in
Mediterranean forest ecosystems. However, other than the fact that fire may alter microsite …

Droughts chronically alter resource availability in forest ecosystems. The increased
frequency and severity of such extreme climate events challenge the acclimation potential of …

Inbreeding is thought to be a key adverse factor impacting the genetic quality of seeds in
seed production populations and the inbreeding degree (ie, selfing or outcrossing rate) of …
