This week was one of my favourite conferences #evoltree in Madrid. I was happy to chat with a lot of people about our work and to present our beech pangenome. As always I heard and learned from a lot of great speakers. Thanks @evoltree.bsky.social 💚

Very much a #proudPI moment when your PhD students @michellezavala.bsky.social and @krlopicc.bsky.social give such lovely presentations of their research. So glad to have the opportunity to join the #EvolTREE meeting and share our ongoing research and learn from diverse systems across Europe.

Always learning, always sharing, how trees adapt today, and how they’ll keep adapting as our world changes. Thanks #EVOLTREE for the opportunity to be part of such an amazing conference

Amazing field trip with the #EvolTREE conference. Wonderful to learn of the new breeding efforts in Cork oak and Holm oak, integrations of new technologies, and degree of monitoring for conservation that has leveraged, expanded, and established leadership in genetic conservation

Marija Kravanja, one of the PhD students supported by an #EVOLTREE grant to attend the conference, presented an original study using FORGENIUS data on the correlation between genetic diversity and resilience, as estimated by restoration rates obtained from satellite data.

So happy to be with European colleagues in Madrid for #EvolTREE to share new ideas, technologies, and applications of forest genetics to conservation, restoration, breeding, and much, much more

Santiago González-Martínez from @inrae-france.bsky.social, our own #EVOLTREE coordinator, gave a talk on the connections between genetic diversity, historical demography, and rates of adaptive evolution in 4 species of conifers. He also cautioned on the applicability of genomic forecasting methods.
