Dear colleagues and contacts in the forest genetics world,
Please consider submitting to the following and share with your networks.
We invite you to submit "Resilience of Forest Biodiversity to Climate Change and Pests: Civic Engagement and Conservation in Seed Banks, Public Gardens, and Wild, Urban, and Agroforestry Landscapes". This session is organized by members of the Society of American Foresters, Kew Gardens, Morton Arboretum, and the US Forest Service, and one of eight linked to the International Society of Tropical Foresters. The deadline for abstract submissions is 2 June 2023 (3 weeks from today). The session proposal is included below.
NOTE: Presently, we cannot offer funding for travel and registration; we are exploring options and appreciate any leads you may have.
Session description
To conserve biodiversity, multiple approaches can be taken on the ground. This mini-symposium (Panel, Flash-talks & Posters) represents experts who focus on complementary aspects of conservation and reforestation; threat assessment, seed collecting and banking from wild trees, collective action and civic engagement, the roles of public gardens in conserving genetic resources, developing genetic resistance to pests to conserve biodiversity, and the importance of conserving genetic diversity in the face of pests and climate change.
Seed is the unit by which biodiversity is propagated, and therefore, protected. There is ever increasing pollination disruption with shifting local climate conditions and more fragmented and degraded native ecosystems. As forests and genetic diversity are lost, so are mother trees for seed collection, in a time when people want to greatly scale reforestation efforts. In addition to potential declines in seed crops, global trade, biodiversity loss, and fragmentation increase the threat of emergent insect and pathogen outbreaks, resulting in local or range-wide extinction of iconic tree species. Therefore, there is a global need for threat assessments, seed collection and banking of native tree species.
In the context of the above challenges and solutions, public gardens and arboreta are critical to the resilience of forests and society. In addition to acting as living collections, seed sources, and refugia of tree species, public gardens serve as biodiversity hotspots in cities, and meeting places for public and volunteer conservation efforts and outreach. As sentinels, trees in public gardens can be used to proactively detect emergent disease threats. Through collective action, exchange of information, public engagement, and local expert knowledge, "think global, act local" could be applied to aid proactive efforts to protect forest biodiversity from the next major pests across the world. Local experts and civic ecologists can accomplish this by collecting seed and observing trees in native environments, plantations, public gardens, and urban forests. Breeding or human-directed genetic improvement presents a practical solution for restoration of species that are impacted by emergent pest epidemics, climate change, or other threats. The utility of breeding to protect biodiversity also depends on the prior establishments of seed banks and other germplasm resources. It is critical to generate a prior understanding of the diversity of populations of tree species valued for their ecological, horticultural, or economic and commercial characteristics, the observed or potential effects of threats to those populations, and the role diversity could play in recovery of species.
Topic areas
1: collecting seed, 2: seed banking, 3: assessing threats, 4: think global act local to address threats with civic ecology and urban forests and botanical gardens, 5: public gardens supporting conservation efforts, and 6/7: developing genetic resistance to conserve biodiversity and conserving biodiversity.

Dear colleagues,
it has been a while since the last visual group meeting in last summer.
I’m sure that you have many exciting new results to share.
To be able to organize a *spring webinaire of our IUFRO group*on
Evolution and Adaptation of Fagaceae and Nothofagaceae, at the beginning
of May, *we are looking for a date*that suits most members of the group.
Due to the many bank holidays in May, this choice will be limited to
dates between the 9^th and the 17^th of May.
We propose to do a similar meeting with pre-recorded 20min talks so that
participants can watch the talks before the actual meeting and then
during the meeting, a short 5 min introduction to the talk, before time
for questions and discussion.
We welcome very much presentations of recent publications, by PhD
students, Post-docs or senior scientists.
Especially, if you have any PhD students in your lab with a topic close
to our group, please motivate him or her to either record a 20min talk,
or to do a live 3-5 minutes talk about one experiment of their PhD.
Also, please contact me directly if you have new scientists in your
group to add to the mailing list.
In the following date survey you can pick your favourite dates as well
as indicate if you would like to introduce a pre-recorded 20min talk or
do a 3-5min presentation. If possible, also leave a comment with a
preliminary title of your talk (or just some keywords about the species
concerned, and your scientific discipline).
_https://evento.renater.fr/survey/2-08-05-3rd-virtual-meeting-spring-2023-ya4rlhub_
*Please respond to this survey by the 2**1**. February. *
As for the timing, we propose again a 2 hours meeting, and we will
switch back to the timing of the first meeting :
12:00-14:00 GMT/UTC, so early in the day for Americans (5-7 San
Francisco, 7-9 Chicago, 9-11 Argentina), early afternoon for people in
Europe (14-16 Paris CEST) and late in the day for scientists in Asia
(Tokyo 21-23)
You will be able to watch the 20min talks one week before the meeting on
Youtube, which also means that the recorded talks should be available
one week before the chosen meeting date.
We hope to see you all there, virtually
best regards
Oliver Brendel, Chuck Cannon & Keiko Kitamura

Dear colleagues,
A position as a permanent INRAE researcher is open at the Silva unit in
Nancy, France, entitled "*Research officer on functional diversity under
water stress*".
I post this job offer on our Fagaceae and Nothofagaceae mailing list,
because
a) we are looking for a young research in ecophysiology, but who is
interested in within-species diversity and might also have some
background in population genetics
b) because he/she will, at least in the beginning, work very probably on
oak or beech.
The aim is to study the intra-specific and even intra-population
diversity of functional traits observed on young trees subjected to
water stress, using multi-trait approaches to identify and characterise
individual strategies of resistance and resilience to these
disturbances. The aim will be to integrate scales, functional responses
and response dynamics to describe the overall functioning of young trees.
Please find more details on the job offer here :
https://jobs.inrae.fr/en/open-competitions/open-competitions-research-scien…
and some general information on the INRAE job offers here :
https://jobs.inrae.fr/en/open-competitions/open-competitions-research-scien…
<https://jobs.inrae.fr/en/open-competitions/open-competitions-research-scien…>
<https://jobs.inrae.fr/en/open-competitions/open-competitions-research-scien…>The
_2023 campaign calendar is
_
- Opening date for applications: January 30, 2023
- *Deadline for applications: March 2, 2023*
- Pre-selections (on scientific file): April 2023
- Final selections (interview): between end of May and mid-June 2023
- Starting date for appointments: from September 2023
Could you please circulate the announcement to your networks and to
potentially interested young researchers ?
Thanks very much and sorry for any cross-postings.
all the best

We would also like to present in more detail the results from the
membership survey that we shared before the June 2021 meeting.
The link to the survey is:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/IUFROFagaceaeWorkingGroup
A total of 63 people have responded (whereas the mailing list is >140
people). We ask a few basic questions:
• what are your research interests?
• do you plan on participating in upcoming meetings in 2022?
• how could the working group best engage you?
It would be great if we could have a more complete view of your IUFRO
group. The *survey is still open and should take you less than ten
minutes to complete*. Your participation would greatly help us make
more effective and engaging plans for future activities.
We hope to see you all there, virtually
