Genetic Variation of European Beech Populations and Their Progeny from Northeast Germany to Southwest Switzerland

Genetic Variation of European Beech Populations and Their Progeny from Northeast Germany to Southwest Switzerland

Climate change can adversely affect the growth of European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) across its entire distribution range. Therefore, knowledge of the adaptive potential of this species to changing climatic conditions is of foremost importance. Genetic diversity is the basis for adaptation to envir...
