The largely complementary palaeobotanical and genetic data indicate that beech survived the last glacial period in multiple refuge areas and the modern genetic diversity was shaped over multiple glacial-interglacial cycles.

The decrease of allelic richness and the simultaneous increase of H during postglacial recolonization was attributed to several processes that differentially affect the two diversity parameters, such as bottlenecks due to long-distance founding events, selection during population establishment, and increased gene flow at low population densities.

This study shows that integrating fossil pollen records can improve simulations of dispersal processes and, thus, allow for better predictions of future changes in tree species’ ranges.

It is demonstrated that in silver fir as a wind-dispersed species, the colonization front is quite continuous, and the survival of migrant seeds in already established populations is low, but pollen dispersal distance is lower than suggested by earlier studies.

Genetic structure of 25 indigenous populations of sessile and pedunculate oaks (Quercus petraea and Q. robur) was investigated using isozyme markers, finding one locus, coding for a substrate-nonspecific dehydrogenase, differentiated the two species.

Trade-off between height growth and spring flushing in common beech (Fagus sylvatica L.)
Stabilizing selection, selective pressure on early leaf flushing of juveniles in dense natural beech stands, and epigenetic regulation of budburst are proposed as explanations for these observations.
