Quercus pubescens - Technical guidelines for genetic conservation of Pubescent oak

Bordács, S., P. Zhelev and B. Schirone. 2019. EUFORGEN Technical Guidelines for genetic conservation and use of pubescent oak (Quercus pubescens). European Forest Genetic Resources Programme (EUFORGEN), European Forest Institute. 6 pages. ISBN 978-952-5980-63-9 Abstract: These Technical Guidelines are intended to assist those who cherish the valuable pubescent oak genepool and its inheritance, through conserving valuable seed sources or use in practical forestry. Due to its complex taxonomic status the guidelines discuss the species sensu stricto. The focus is on conserving the genetic diversity of the species at the European scale. The recommendations provided in this module should be regarded as a commonly agreed basis to be complemented and further developed in local, national or regional conditions. The Guidelines are based on the available knowledge of the species and on widely accepted methods for the conservation of forest genetic resources
