Description

Assisted migration is a tree planting method where tree species or populations are translocated with the aim of establishing more climate-resilient forests. However, this might potentially increase susceptibility of translocated trees to herbivory. Stand diversification through planting trees in species or genotypic mixtures may reduce the amount of damage by insect pests, but its effectiveness in mitigation of excess herbivory on climate-matched trees has seldom been explored.
