The road to restoration: Identifying and conserving the adaptive legacy of American chestnut

2023-06-01

Abstract excerpt

The American chestnut ( Castanea dentata ) is a functionally extinct tree species that was decimated by an invasive fungal pathogen in the early 20 th century. Disease resistant chestnuts have been developed through hybridization and genetic modification, but these populations may lack the adaptive genomic diversity necessary to restore the species across its climatically diverse historical range. An understandi...
