Given predicted rapid climate change, an understanding of how environmental factors affect genetic diversity in natural populations is important. Future selection pressures are inherently unpredictabl
Tree breeders must often consider the conservation of genetic diversity, while at the same time, maximizing response to selection. In the case of seed orchards, the buyer of seed wants maximum perform
Due to the reduction of population density and/or the environmental changes it induces, selective logging could affect the demography, reproductive biology and evolutionary potential of forest trees.
