Inspirational visit to @Forest_Research’s Holt Laboratory to see work being done by our world-leading scientists to protect our trees and woodlands 🔬
Their important work will ensure the health and resilience of all of our trees and forests, new and old 🌳
Really looking forward to this meeting next week 🌳🌲
Three talks on @Forest_Research tree improvement work: Domen Finzgar on managing diversity in the GB Sitka spruce population, Thomas Baer on phenotyping drought response in Sitka and I'll be talking about prospects for improving ash response to dieback
A fabulous 101 on reference genomes as well as a useful update on CFP’s work on ash. Thanks Danny!
The Centre for Forest Protection team @KewScience have released a new and improved reference genome for European Ash. Find out more about why reference genomes are important in a blog by @Danny_Wood92
