The benefits and risks of human-aided translocation individuals within the species range, assisted gene flow (AGF), depend on genetic divergence, rate direction hybridization, climate transfer distance between host donor populations. In this study, we explored use Oriental beech (Fagus sylvatica subsp. orientalis), growing from Iran to Balkans, for AGF into European populations (F. sylvatica) that increasingly suffer warming. Using samples natural microsatellite loci, identified 5 distinct...

European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) forests have recently experienced severe diebacks that are expected to increase in future. Oriental spp. orientalis (Lipsky) Greut. & Burd) is a potential candidate for assisted migration (AM) due its greater genetic diversity and potentially higher drought resistance. Yet AM entails not only benefits, but also risks, it therefore important monitor the progression of introduced (sub)species. Here, we demonstrate leaf spectroscopy replace resource-intensive...

Abstract Fire blight is the most devastating disease affecting pome fruit production globally. The pathogen native to North America and was imported western Europe in 1950s, progressively spreading over continent ensuing decades. Previous phylogenetic studies have revealed extreme genetic homogeneity of outside its center origin, which makes epidemiological difficult. These are generally only possible using hypervariable regions genome such as those represented by CRISPRs (Clustered...

Abstract Human-aided translocation of individuals within the species’ range, assisted gene flow (AGF), has been suggested as a climate change mitigation strategy, especially for foundational species, such forest trees. The benefits and risks AGF largely depend on genetic divergence between host donor populations, their rate direction hybridization, distance that transfer involves. In this study, we explored use Oriental beech ( Fagus sylvatica subsp. orientalis ), growing from Iran to...

Assisted migration programs, introducing new better adapted species at critical locations in our forests, have the potential to mitigate adverse effects of climate change through increase forest diversity and resilience. While such measures entail ecological risks related with invasiveness exotic or outbreaks diseases, close relatives native populations from different parts range is seen as ecologically safer option. However, due similar appearance closely species, monitoring based on...
