Spatial and temporal variation of genetic structures in tree populations
(Training)

Contact Martin Ziehe

This course was open for researchers and PhD students. Priority was given to members of EVOLTREE labs. The course was organised by the University of Göttingen (P8).

Lectures were structured around 4 x 1.5 hours per day and were scheduled for 4 days. A one-day field trip to the ISS Solling was planned for Wednesday.

Topics included:

• Sources of spatial and temporal variation of genetic structures
• Spatial analysis (characterization of spatial patterns)
• Temporal variation (variation at different time scales)
• Demonstration of genetic variation for some beech stands at the ISS Solling
