Facts and practical information

The elm cultivar Ulmus 'Toledo' was raised from seed collected in 1999 from a tree believed to be Ulmus minor growing in the eponymous city, by researchers at the Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros de Montes, Universidad Politėcnica de Madrid. However, retrospective DNA analysis revealed that the clone also had Ulmus pumila DNA, the species introduced to Spain at the end of the 16th century, and has consequently been dropped from the research programme.
