HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Death of plantation seedlings and young previously healthy trees is recognized as an increasingly widespread response to environmental stresses arising from climate change. The challenge for the profession is to sustain healthy trees and forests, to have the best survivotypes for each location.
