Abstract Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) has high conservation value on the
southwestern edge of its range, which extends from the southwestern United States (ie …

In recent decades, climate change has disrupted forest functioning by promoting large-scale
mortality events, declines in productivity and reduced regeneration. Understanding the …

Ploidy level in plants may influence ecological functioning, demography and response to
climate change. However, measuring ploidy level typically requires intensive cell or …

Mapping geographic mosaics of genetic variation and their consequences via genotype x
environment interactions at large extents and high resolution has been limited by the …

Species responses to climate change depend on environment, genetics, and interactions
among these factors. Intraspecific cytotype (ploidy level) variation is a common type of …

With the effects of climate change expected to intensify over the coming century, land
managers will require more proactive and novel approaches to conserve and restore …

Premise Quaking aspen is a clonal tree species that has mixed ploidy, often with high
relative abundance of both diploids and triploids but no haploids or tetraploids. Triploids …

The presence of heterozygous individuals in a population is crucial for maintaining genetic
diversity, which can positively affect fitness and adaptability to environmental changes …

Abstract Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) ecosystems are highly valued in the
