DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2108326119
Abstract: Significance New forest management techniques, like genomics-based assisted migration (AM), can help forests adapt to climate change by maintaining the productivity of commercially important tree species. However, we find that key stakeholder groups tend to… read more here.
