CAPS seeks to boost the efficiency of population supplementation programs by propagating portfolios of climate-resilient genotypes. This will entail a shift in the mindset of stocking and planting programs, supported by careful comparisons of climate-relevant traits and genes among strains/cultivars. Both scientific innovation and stakeholder engagement will be essential for the successful development and application of the CAPS concept across management spheres.
