The paper assesses how 50 years of land-cover change in Puerto Rico affected suitable habitat for tree species based on climate, niche, and functional traits.

This study examines genetic structuring and local adaptation in three boreal tree species along a latitudinal gradient, revealing shared and species-specific patterns of gene flow and environmental adaptation.

The paper presents a comparative genetic dataset for 19 Caribbean tree species, including SNP data and complementary trait and distribution information.

This study shows that gene copy number variations (gCNVs) contribute to local adaptation in spruce species by affecting environmental stress response genes and quantitative traits.

This study identifies conserved meiotic gene expression patterns in autopolyploid plants across angiosperms, supporting a shared evolutionary response to whole genome duplication.

This study examines the evolutionary history of Norway and Siberian spruce, revealing recurrent hybridization and gene flow across glacial cycles, with distinct genetic clusters and refugia shaping their distribution.

The paper reconstructs the evolutionary history of Betula pubescens, showing it originated from an autoploid event and later hybridized with multiple species, with introgressed alleles contributing to climate adaptation and meiotic stability.

This study shows that divergent selection on macro-phenotypes in Norway spruce predates the Last Glacial Maximum, with stem diameter being under selection while tracheid dimensions and juvenile growth are not.

This study examines how genetic load and ecological strategies affect the performance of shepherd's purse accessions from the front and core of its range under competition.
