When a person is cremated, the "ashes" are mostly the inorganic parts of the bones with everything else burned away. There shouldn't be any surviving DNA and I don't think the ashes would act as fertilizer, either.* In any case, I don't think a tree could absorb and keep any of the DNA around even if the tree were planted over an un-cremated body.
