Populations are locally adapted when populations have the highest relative fitness at their
home sites, and lower fitness in other parts of the range. Results from the extensive …

Steady reduction of once-extensive forested habitats into isolated fragments will have
unintended consequences for genetically disrupted tree populations. Gene flow in forest …

Patterns of pollen dispersal were investigated in a small, isolated, relict population of Pinus
sylvestris L., consisting of 36 trees. A total-exclusion battery comprising four chloroplast and …

Healthy forests provide many of the essential ecosystem services upon which all life
depends. Genetic diversity is an essential component of long-term forest health because it …

Outcrossing rate, the rates of ovule and seed abortion, and levels of correlated paternity
were estimated in a small population of Pinus sylvestris, a predominantly outcrossing …

The fine-scale pattern of correlated paternity was characterized within a population of the
narrow-endemic model plant species, Centaurea corymbosa, using microsatellites and …

Abstract poldisp 1.0 is a free software package to estimate the distribution of pollen dispersal
distances from mother–offspring diploid genotypic data. It requires the spatial coordinates …

We studied the mating system of white spruce (Picea glauca) in a landscape fragmented by
agriculture in northern Ontario, Canada. We sampled 23 stands that ranged in size from 1 …

The consequences of silviculture and management on the genetic variation and structure of
long-impacted populations of forest tree are reviewed assessed and discussed, using …

We analyzed mitochondrial DNA polymorphisms to search for evidence of the genetic
structure and patterns of admixture in 124 populations (N= 1407 trees) across the …
