Variation in adaptive traits of coastal Douglas-fir : genetic and environmental components

Creator:

Balduman, Lisa M.

Abstract:

Cold hardiness and phenology are important adaptive traits for perennial plant species in temperate climates. Timing of growth, dormancy, and associated cold acclimation and deacclimation represents a delicate balance between maximizing growth under favorable conditions and minimizing frost damage under unfavorable conditions. Geographic patterns of genetic variation in adaptive traits,...
