1. Genetic Control of Annual Growth Rhythm in the Conifer Norway Spruce (Picea Abies L. Karst)
Abstract : Norway spruce (Picea abies L. Karst) is a conifer belonging to the group gymnosperms and is an ecologically and economically important species in several parts of Europe. READ MORE

2. From growth cessation to bud burst : conifer seedling development in response to nursery culture and environmental stimuli
Abstract : In Sweden, 350-400 million seedlings are produced annually for forest regeneration. About one third of these are overwintered in frozen storage, necessitating accurate methods to assess storability. Young transplants of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst. READ MORE

3. Molecular Regulation of Bud Phenology and Vegetative Phase Change in Populus Trees
Abstract : Trees are sessile organisms that have evolved to survive and thrive in changing growth conditions. As a survival strategy they undergo massive morphological changes that can be quantified. READ MORE

4. Understanding the environmental regulation of tree phenology
Abstract : In temperate and boreal climates, trees synchronise their annual growth cycles with seasonal changes in daylength and temperature. Understanding how environmental cues regulate tree phenology is important to our ability to capture the potential responses of trees to climate change, with implications for forest productivity.

5. Adaptive Evolution and Demographic History of Norway Spruce (Picea Abies)
Abstract : One of the major challenges in evolutionary biology is to determine the genetic basis of adaptive variation. In Norway spruce (Picea abies) the timing of bud set shows a very strong latitudinal cline despite a very low genetic differentiation between populations. READ MORE
