contents We prove that for a non-isotrivial abelian scheme over a smooth curve, the genus of a generic sequence of multi-sections with small heights tends to infinity. As an application, we give a new proof of the uniform boundedness of $\ell$-primary torsion points on fibers of an abelian scheme over a smooth curve, a result originally proved by Cadoret and Tamagawa. Furthermore, our approach allows us to resolve a conjecture of Cadoret and Tamagawa without additional assumptions. Our approach is based on the theory of Betti foliations and the arithmetic equidistribution theorem.
