Ecological and evolutionary responses of Mediterranean plants to global change. (2014, unknown): “Therefore, divergence among populations in traits related to adaptation to global change may represent an inherent source for stress-tolerant ecotypes (Hamrick, 2004; Reusch and Wood, 2007; Rose et al., 2009; Hoffmann and Sgrò, 2011; Camarero et al., 2012).”
Spatial Scales of Pollen and Seed-Mediated Gene Flow in Tropical Rain Forest Trees (2008, background): “Hamrick [50] has argued that because of their extensive documented pollen flow, long lifespan, and high genetic diversity, trees in general may be less vulnerable to anthropogenic changes than other organisms.”
Changing perspectives on regeneration ecology and genetic diversity in western quaking aspen: implications for silviculture (2012, unknown): “Climate change, however, is expected to shift geographic optima for many species (Parmesan 2006), creating an “adaptational lag” in tree species (Hamrick 2004; Aitken et al. 2008).”
Genetic analysis of landscape connectivity in tree populations (2006, background): “Hamrick (2004) points out that many tree species are likely to be resilient to landscape changes because they already contain high genetic diversity and they have successful mechanisms for extensive propagule flow.”
Population differences in juvenile survival under increasing drought are mediated by seed size in cork oak (Quercus suber L.). (2009, background): “The potential of the tree species to respond to the climate change will not only depend on the genetic variation in adaptive traits at among-population level, but also on the genetic variation at within-population level (Hamrick, 2004).”
Congruence between environmental parameters, morphology and genetic structure in Australia’s most widely distributed eucalypt, Eucalyptus camaldulensis (2008, background): “Concerns about climate change and the ability of species to adapt to changing rainfall and temperature regimes have increased interest in this field (see Hamrick 2004 for review).”
Inferring the past from the present phylogeographic structure of North American forest trees : seeing the forest for the genes (2009, background): “Forest trees are useful models to study the impacts of historical events due to their generally large population sizes, long generation times, high investment in reproduction, and high phenotypic plasticity, which allow them to survive drastic environmental changes and to preserve the genetic imprin”
A global view of aspen: Conservation science for widespread keystone systems (2020, background): “Due to their large genotypic and phenotypic variability, as well as positive feedback loops associated with shortened disturbance cycles (Kulakowski et al. ), this species has the potential for great adaptability to future climatic changes (Hamrick 2004).”
Maintenance of high pollen dispersal in Eucalyptus wandoo, a dominant tree of the fragmented agricultural region in Western Australia (2008, background): “Population genetic theory predicts that fragmentation of landscapes through anthropogenic disturbance will lead to reduced gene flow, and, in association with decreased population size, reduced genetic diversity and increased genetic structure due to random genetic drift and elevated inbreeding (You”
Assisted Colonization: A Question of Focal Units and Recipient Localities (2011, background): “Foundation species are commonly wide-ranging species (Ellison et al. 2005) that exhibit large genetic variation (Hamrick 2004).”
Quantifying phenological plasticity to temperature in two temperate tree species (2010, background): “First, a high genetic diversity among and within populations would improve opportunities of rapid adaptation to a new environment (Hamrick 2004).”
Adaptation, migration or extirpation: climate change outcomes for tree populations (2008, background): “The past glacial and postglacial migrations of these taxa, inferred from fossil pollen records and genetic data, suggest a robust capacity for range shifts (Davis and Shaw 2001, Hamrick, 2004).”
Anthropogenic alterations of genetic diversity within tree populations: Implications for forest ecosystem resilience (2008, background): “For example, it is often assumed that high outcrossing rates associated with pollen and seed dispersal from surrounding uncut stands could maintain genetic richness within populations under silvicultural management (Hamrick, 2004).”
Modelling exploration of the future of European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) under climate change—Range, abundance, genetic diversity and adaptive response (2010, background): “As Hamrick (2004) points out, the rate of adaptation to environmental change depends largely on successful recruitment events during the lifetime of a tree, and less so on the longevity of individual trees.”
The role of forest genetic resources in responding to biotic and abiotic factors in the context of anthropogenic climate change (2014, background): “If environmental change is directional and continuous, fast-maturing trees in particular may have the potential to adapt genetically (Hamrick, 2004).”
