Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Plant species diversity is threatened worldwide, and urgent conservation action is needed. Emerging evidence demonstrates that urban forests, which are ubiquitous in cities globally, are repositories of threatened tree species diversity. Urban forests consist of billions of individual trees, suggesting that they may serve an important role as reservoirs of genetic diversity for ex situ tree species...
