Abstract

The authors are interested in understanding the underlying molecular basis of plant adaptation to the environment by using landscape genomics approaches and applying this knowledge to managing tree populations facing changing climate.

They understand the need to distinguish demographic from adaptive processes and use approaches that minimize confounding effects.
