Utilization and transfer of forest genetic resources: A global review (2014, background): “Its habitats have been considerably reduced by the past transformation of rivers to canals and its gene pool is threatened by the large-scale cultivation of hybrid poplars (Smulders et al., 2008).”
Geographical genetics and the conservation of forest trees (2009, background): “, 2005), which resulted in the likely identification of many individuals of Populus nigra, a rare and endangered species not only because of the declining habitat (riparian forests), but also because of the hybridization with exotic Populus taxa (Cottrell et al., 2005; Pospiskova and Salkova, 2006; ”
Why Climate Change Makes Riparian Restoration More Important than Ever: Recommendations for Practice and Research (2009, unknown): “In European riparian systems, black poplars (Populus nigra) show signi#cant genetic variation among populations, even within catchments (Smulders et al. 2008).”
