EUFORGEN Webinar #2: case study on ash dieback and its consequences on genetic diversity
Webinar #2 - 10 February 2023 (11:00 - 12:00 CET)
The EUFORGEN Secretariat is hosting in February a webinar series entitled "Biotic outbreak management of the Genetic Conservation Units Network: case study on ash dieback", which consists of three online sessions open to the public.
This second online session will focus on the genetic tolerance and resistance to ash dieback in populations of this tree species. The guest speakers for Webinar #2 are Richard Buggs, Professor of Evolutionary Genomics at Queen Mary University of London; Ben Bubner, Head of the Unit Pathogen Resistance Research at Thuenen Institute of Forest Genetic; and Heino Konrad, Head of the Unit for Ecological Genetics, Department of Forest Biodiversity and Nature Conservation, at the Austrian Research Centre for Forests (BFW).
