DNA microsatellites provide plant ecologists with molecular markers precise enough to
assign parentage to seeds and seedlings. This allows the exact distance and trajectory of …

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 …

The diversification and distribution of Abies species throughout the Mediterranean region
has led to a complex of species which are difficult to classify. An open question is whether …

We have detected CO (4-3) in the radio galaxy 4C 41.17 with the IRAM Interferometer. The
CO is in two massive () systems separated by 18 (13 kpc), and by 400 in velocity, which …

Mangrove tree species form ecologically and economically important forests along the
tropical and subtropical coastlines of the world. Although low intrapopulation genetic …

Landslides are some of the primary causes of forest disturbances, and their frequency is
increasing globally due to climate changes. The recruitment and colonization processes of …

Conifer populations across wide geographical ranges often demonstrate adaptation to local
environments related to heterogeneous climatic conditions. Long‐term provenance …

Fragmented populations at the edges of a species' distribution can be highly exposed to the
loss of genetic variation, unless sufficient gene flow maintains their genetic connectivity …

Mangrove forest ecosystems, which provide important ecological services for marine
environments and human activities, are being destroyed worldwide at an alarming rate. The …

Alpine treelines are expected to advance to higher elevations in conjunction with global
warming. Nevertheless, the importance of treeline reproductive patterns and seed dispersal …
