Annual Cambial Rhythm in Pinus halepensis and Pinus sylvestris as Indicator for Climate Adaptation. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2016 To understand better the adaptation strategies of intra-annual radial growth in Pinus halepensis and Pinus sylvestris to local environmental conditions, we examined the seasonal rhythm of cambial activity and cell differentiation at tissue and cellular levels.

Indirect Evidence for Genetic Differentiation in Vulnerability to Embolism in Pinus halepensis. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2016 Climate change is increasing mean temperatures and in the eastern Mediterranean is expected to decrease annual precipitation. The resulting increase in aridity may be too rapid for adaptation of tree species unless their gene pool already possesses variation in drought resistance.

Looking for Local Adaptation: Convergent Microevolution in Aleppo Pine (Pinus halepensis). [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2019 Finding outlier loci underlying local adaptation is challenging and is best approached by suitable sampling design and rigorous method selection. In this study, we aimed to detect outlier loci (single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs) at the local scale by using Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis), a drought resistant conifer that has colonized many habitats ...
