MaP FGR COST Action aims to bring together experts in forest genetic resources (FGR) to collect knowledge on FGR in Marginal and Peripheral (MaP) populations throughout Europe. The effects of climate change are likely to be stronger and more rapid in MaP populations than elsewhere. MaP forest populations are at the edges of species ranges where conditions are less suitable for survival. Studying adaptive processes in these populations is crucial and of mutual interest for European and neighboring countries for understanding the evolution of species and developing gene pool (FGR) conservation and management strategies and networks to cope with global changes. These populations are not only threatened by modern climate changes but also by other disturbances arising from human pressures and they may prove invaluable for adapting the European forestry sector.

San Vito di Cadore 3-5 Giugno 2014 Il corso di Cultura in ecologia celebra la 50ima edizione dalla prima voluta da Lucio Susmel.
30 giugno – 4 luglio 2014. Banca Popolare Etica, via Niccolò Tommaseo 7, 35131 Padova
The topic of this 2014 TS will be ‘’Adaptation and evolution of Marginal-Peripheral populations of forest trees at the leading, altitudinal and rear edges of species distribution’’. The TS will focus on: Introduction of ‘’population’’, ‘’marginal-peripheral (MaP) population’’ concepts; Ecological aspects of forest species distributions; Forest population genetics and the key role of MaP populations; Conservation and adaptation of MaP populations (including adaptation, resilience and phenotypic plasticity in MaP populations); MaP at leading edges, Map at rear edges and MaP at altitudinal edges; Scientific methods on adaptive traits and strategies related to the conservation in situ and ex situ of MaP populations and related forest genetic resources; Management of MaP reproductive materials and related legislation (based on information available in National Reports prepared by European/Mediterranean partners in the context of the first State of the World Forest Genetic Resources). Presentation of most recent study cases on adaptation and evolution of MaP FGR at the edges of species distribution; Presentation of the trainees own researches on MaP population and FGR.
