Today's field trip: selecting continental site for @optforests.bsky.social project in cooperation with local forest managers and representatives of Slovenian state forests. Found a great candidate in the Kočevsko region.

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 💚

Final words from Delphine and Beppe, and the Joint EVOLTREE-FORGENIUS Conference is closed. It was great fun to discuss science with all you! Enjoy your weekend! And don't miss the next #EVOLTREE Conference in 2027 (venue to be announced soon)!

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

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.
