Knowledge gaps in the genetics of UK trees and shrubs
This report evaluates the knowledge gaps related to the genetics of UK trees and shrubs including those targeted by the UK National Tree Seed Project. Risk assessments have been conducted by following a decision tree based on two essential considerations: 1. Sampling strategies to capture genetic diversity, 2. Selection of...Gargiulo, Roberta

Report on New Methods for Data Quality Assurance, Verification and Enrichment
Distributed Systems of Scientific Collections (DiSSCo) will facilitate the production of tens of millions of natural history specimen collection images along with their labels each year. The labels of these specimens contain valuable information for research studies, but their transcription can be very difficult and time consuming with often hard...Philips, Sarah ; Mathias, Dillen ; Quentin, Groom ; Green, Laura ; Weech, Marie-Hélène …

A Strategy for UK Forest Genetic Resources: protecting the UK’s unique diversity of trees and shrubs
This Strategy aims to create a framework for collaboration to better understand, protect and use the genetic diversity in the UK’s trees. It focuses on native species and introduced species where naturalisation has taken place or where important varieties or landraces have been developed in the UK. For ease of...Trivedi, Clare ; Cavers, Stephen ; Atkinson, Nick ; Clark, Jo ; Cottrell, Joan
