Decoding drought tolerance from a genomic approach in Castanea sativa Mill. [PDF]
Abstract Climate change, marked by prolonged periods of extreme summer drought coupled with heat, presents a significant challenge for chestnut forests. Genomic insight into drought tolerance in Castanea sativa is essential for enhancing the adaptation of this species to climate change.

Identifying Host Resistance to Phytophthora cinnamomi in Hybrid Progeny of Castanea dentata and Castanea mollissima [PDF]
Phytophthora cinnamomi Rands, the causal pathogen of phytophthora root rot (PRR) of chestnut, is one of the main obstacles to growth of american chestnut [Castanea dentata (Marsh.) Bork.] in the southern part of its distribution. To facilitate introgression of PRR resistance of chinese chestnut (C. mollissima Blume) into a C. dentata genetic background,
