New paper from Sally and Mike

When should we use assisted gene flow to help populations adapt to climate change?

The Aitken Lab Blog

The Aitken lab is (mostly) housed within the University of British Columbia’s Faculty of Forestry. We study genetics, local adaptation, and responses to climate change in the forest tree species of the Pacific Northwest.
