Resilience of genetic diversity in forest trees over the Quaternary

The paper uses population genomic analyses to show that forest trees maintained genetic diversity despite Pleistocene climate changes.

Estimation of contemporary effective population size in plant populations: limitations of genomic datasets

This study evaluates the limitations of genomic datasets in estimating effective population size (Ne) in plants using the GONE software, highlighting issues like missing data, SNP sampling, and chromosomal location information.

Extensive genetic variation of leaf specialized metabolites in sessile oak (Quercus petraea) populations.

The paper examines genetic variation in specialized metabolites of sessile oaks and finds extensive within-population variation but little between-population differentiation, with 42% of metabolites showing significant genetic associations.

Locally adapted oak populations along an elevation gradient display different molecular strategies to regulate bud phenology.

Molecular plasticity to soil water deficit differs between sessile oak (Quercus Petraea (Matt.) Liebl.) high and low water use efficiency genotypes

The paper compares molecular responses to water deficit in high and low water use efficiency sessile oak genotypes, identifying gene expression differences linked to drought adaptation.

Water stress-associated isolation barriers between two sympatric oak species

The paper investigates gene expression differences in roots of two sympatric oak species under water stress conditions and identifies genes involved in adaptive strategies and reproductive barriers.

Genome-wide evolutionary response of European oakssince the Little Ice Age

This study tracks genomic changes in European oaks since the Little Ice Age, finding shifts in selection linked to climate extremes and stress responses.

High-quality SNPs from genic regions highlight introgression patterns among European white oaks (Quercus petraea and Q. robur).

This study challenges the 'allosteric switch' model of SHP2 activation by showing that the N-SH2 binding cleft is constitutively open in solution and its opening does not drive activation.

Growth and mortality of the oak processionary moth, Thaumetopoea processionea L., on two oak species: direct and trait-mediated effects of host and neighbour species identity

This study examines how host and neighbor tree species affect the growth and mortality of oak processionary moth larvae on two oak species.

Genomic landscape of the global oak phylogeny

This study investigates oak genome diversity and phylogeny using RAD-seq data, finding that oak diversity is shaped by gene flow and genomic mosaicism.

Adaptive introgression as a driver of local adaptation to climate in European white oaks

This study investigates adaptive introgression from Q. robur into Q. petraea populations across climate gradients, finding evidence of gene flow and its role in local adaptation.

Massive postglacial gene flow between European white oaks uncovered genes underlying species barriers

The paper identifies genomic regions and genes underlying reproductive barriers in European white oaks, revealing postglacial gene flow and ecological adaptations.
