Climate and Soil Microsite Conditions Determine Local Adaptation in Declining Silver Fir Forests
Ongoing climatic change is threatening the survival of drought-sensitive tree species, such as silver fir (<i>Abies alba</i>). Drought-induced dieback had been previously explored in this conifer, although the role played by tree-level genetic diversity and its relationship with growth p...
