The latest paper from our former research group about data augmentation in pedigreed forest tree population to improve accuracy of genomic selection has been published! Thanks to all co-authors! rdcu.be/eXXkC

The latest paper “Using genomics to trace genealogy in the early stages of forest tree domestication” from our group just been published at rdcu.be/etEUF

link.springer.com/journal/10722 Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution journal is inviting submissions of manuscripts in genetics/breeding/conservation of forest plantation species. Please, get in touch if you have any questions.

We have recently won a grant to further develop and extend AlphaSimR [CRAN: Package AlphaSimR](cran.r-project.org/package=AlphaS….) We will soon be hiring two post-docs to focus on improved genomic data structure (tree sequence) & generic phenotype model, while improving user’s experience.

There will be workshop on forest genetic common gardens in Madrid 27-29 November! For registration, please visit genfored.es/workshop-on-fo…

Our latest paper is out! Congratulations Duncan! Well-connected trials show low genotype-by-environment interaction in ... sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Environmental effects on genetic variance are likely to constrain adaptation in novel environments. doi.org/10.1093/evlett… Now in @EvolLetters by Greg M Walter et al.

Congratulations to Duncan!!

Deadline extended until Jan 25th! #postdoc position in #Conservation and Population genomics of endangered species whitebark pine. Please RT!

@PyhaTanja @MarinSanna @alisondawnscott @SanjaHakala @JohnStinchcombe @tylervkent @MGStetter @KarladeLimaBer2 @imengyuan Hi Tanja, happy to see you enjoyed your time in Prague!!

On RNZ's @ninetonoon at 9.30: Scion's Dr Paul Bennett is backing the government's plan to require the use of #biofuels in petrol and diesel from next April, pointing to major advancements in the science relating to liquid biofuels and #bioenergy.

Really excited about the symposium we are planning @uniGoettingen. It will be a friendly event for PhDs in the field #forestry #molecularecology #genetics Spread the word 🌳🧬 @phdsforforests phdforfutureforest.wordpress.com

Still time to apply for these three positions in tree breeding @Forest_Research - closing dates 3 August and 14 August... details below (1/4)

📣#Forests🌲 Special Issue "Using Genomic Information in Forest #Tree #Breeding, Restoration, and Conservation: Separating Hype from Reality", edited by @ganchoslavov, Glenn Howe and @klapstej extended to 15 November 2022! @scion_research For details 👉 mdpi.com/journal/forest…
