Genetic Variability of <i>Alnus cordata</i> (Loisel.) Duby Populations and Introgressive Hybridization with <i>A. glutinosa</i> (L.) Gaertn. in Southern Italy: Implication for Conservation and Management of Genetic Resources

Genetic Variability of <i>Alnus cordata</i> (Loisel.) Duby Populations and Introgressive Hybridization with <i>A. glutinosa</i> (L.) Gaertn. in Southern Italy: Implication for Conservation and Management of Genetic Resources

<i>Alnus cordata</i> (Loisel.) Duby (Neapolitan alder) is an endemic tree species with a restricted distribution range, limited to Corsica and southern Italy. The economic value of its wood, its rapid growth, the tolerance to drought stress and the nitrogen fixation capacity make <i&g...
