Dear Colleagues of IUFRO Div2 and 2.09.02 lists,
I'm forwarding you the following question from Mariano Toribio and Paloma Moncaleán about any active legislation for micropropagation of forest tree species in your country. Please answer directly to Mariano and Paloma.
Kind Regards,
Jean-François Trontin
IUFRO2.09.02 Coordinator

Dear colleagues,
If you are aware of legislation in your country on the production of plants of forest species by micropropagation (both by organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis) and commercialization of this type of clonal plant material, we would appreciate very much receiving such information.
Particularly we are interested in knowing if there are norms regulating the maximum number of multiplication cycles that are allowed in the schemes of production.
Kind regards,
Mariano Toribio [ mariano.toribio(a)madrid.org ]
Paloma Moncaleán [ pmoncalean(a)neiker.eus ]

Betreff: Forest Genetics 2017: conference/professional development
http://forestgenetics2017.ca/
June 26-29 2017, optional post-conference field trips June 30
Forest genetics practitioners and researchers are invited to attend the Forest Genetics 2017 conference at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, June 26th-29th, 2017. This year’s conference theme is “Forest Health and Productivity in Changing Environments.”
The hosting organizations for this conference are <http://cfga-acgf.com/> CFGA and <http://www.fsl.orst.edu/wfga/> WFGA, which represent academics, researchers, tree breeders, seed biologists, students and forestry practitioners involved in genetics and tree breeding in Canada and western North America. Their joint, biennial conference series provides a forum for sharing research results, technology transfer, and broadening the scope of their activities to cater for emerging economic and environmental challenges.
Dear Colleagues!
We kindly inform you that AForGeN2017 has been announced.
The 6th annual AFoRGeN meeting will be held on June 15-17, 2017 at the
Villa Welsperg in the Val Canali, Trentino, Italy.
The first announcement is uploaded on the AForGen homepage:

Colleagues,
We hope to compile information on orphaned data for tropical forests, including inventory and plot data, that are in danger of being lost. Many projects over the years have generated a lot of tropical forest data. But the information is scattered among different institutions and people, some still only on paper, some digitized but in older formats.
TROPIS and ATROFI-UK are two previous databases that compiled metadata on forest plots and inventories. The data for certain plots are available at www.forestplots.net and its associated networks. But other plots and inventories still need attention, re-discovery even. We would like to compile information on datasets that should be digitized or transformed to an up-to-date digital format. The goal is firstly to make metadata on these datasets available on a publicly accessible website, and then to try to secure the data itself by pushing for appropriate curation with open-access availability.
These legacy datasets are invaluable for understanding how tropical forests change through time, including the cumulative impacts of changes in land use and climate, and changes in patterns of biodiversity and carbon storage. The past can help inform the future.
If you know of any such orphaned databases for tropical forests, please send a message to: Gillian Petrokofsky gillian.petrokofsky(a)zoo.ox.ac.uk or Sheila Ward sheila.emily.ward(a)gmail.com. Please pass this message on to anyone who might be interested.

Dear Colleagues,
We would like to warmly invite you to participate in the IUFRO Seed Orchard Conference that will be held on September 4-6, 2017 in Bålsta, Sweden.
The goal of the conference is to provide an opportunity for scientists, students and managers of seed orchards and forest regeneration to exchange the most recent scientific advances related to forest tree seed orchards and their integration in the forestry practice.
For more information please see http://seedorchard2017.upsc.se/<https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fseedorcha…> or contact Tomas.Funda(a)slu.se<mailto:Tomas.Funda@slu.se>.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Bålsta!
Sincerely yours,
Organizing Committee
Experiences with Adaptive Measures in Forestry and Forest Restoration under Global Change
The members of the IUFRO Task Force "Forest Adaptation and Restoration under Global Change" are conducting a survey to gain data and insights for developing best practice approaches for forest adaptation and restoration under global change. This survey relies on the knowledge of experts/professionals from forestry and related fields and their information about actual examples of Adaptive Measures in Forestry and Forest Restoration, thus we would like to kindly ask you for your participation.
The collected data will contribute valuable information to a study of the local and regional experiences with Adaptive Forest Management (AFM) and Forest Landscape Restoration (FLR) under climate- and societal change with the aim to increase the adaptive capacity of forests and forest landscapes with regards to those changes.
Please visit <http://gdi.thuenen.de/wo/limesurvey/index.php/883655?lang=en> http://gdi.thuenen.de/wo/limesurvey/index.php/883655?lang=en and fill in the questionnaire – the Task Force greatly appreciates your help in this matter!

Dear Colleagues of IUFRO Division 2 and IUFRO 2.09.02 Unit,
Dr. Gerry C. Douglas (Teagasc, Ireland) communicated to me that a Post-Doctoral position is opened to
develop methodologies for vegetative propagation and scaling up production of selected lines of a variety of species that are suitable for cut foliage production such as Eucalyptus spp, Pittosporum, Viburnum spp.
See the attached Program Description of the Post-Doctoral Research fellow, instructions and links for further information of candidates.
Please forward the announcement to any potential candidates and note that the deadline is quite short: no later than 12 midnight on Wednesday 22nd February 2017.
