Drought-adaptation potential in Fagus sylvatica: linking moisture availability with genetic diversity and dendrochronology.
BACKGROUND: Microevolution is essential for species persistence especially under anticipated climate change scenarios. Species distribution projection models suggested that the dominant tree species of lowland forests in Switzerland, European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), might disappear from most are...
