Castanea spp. biodiversity conservation: collection and characterization of the genetic diversity of an endangered species

2012-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Centuries of co-evolution between Castanea spp. biodiversity and human populations has resulted in the spread of rich and varied chestnut genetic diversity throughout most of the world, especially in mountainous and forested regions. Its plasticity and adaptability to different pedoclimates and the wide genetic variability of the species determined the spread of many different ecotypes and varieties in the wild. T...
