Generalizing the effect of traits on performance across species may be achievable if traits
explain variation in population fitness. However, testing relationships between traits and vital …

We investigated growth and a suite of physiological and structural traits of ponderosa pine
(Pinus ponderosa Lawson & C. Lawson var. scopulorum Engelm.) seedlings from different …

Juvenile tree survival will play an important role in the persistence of coniferous forests and
woodlands in the southwestern United States (SWUS). Vulnerability to climatic and …

We investigated early survival, growth, and carbon isotope discrimination of ponderosa pine
(Pinus ponderosa Lawson & C. Lawson var. scopulorum Engelm.) seedlings from different …

Trees are particularly susceptible to climate change due to their long lives and slow
dispersal. However, trees can adjust the timing of their growing season in response to …

Oaks (genus Quercus) often display a large range of phenotypic variation across many of
their traits. The contribution of genetic and environmental sources, and their interaction, to …

We sampled 130 individuals (2 to 25 per taxon) of Pinus subsections Ponderosae and
Sabinianae. Nucleotide sequences were obtained by targeting 703 low copy nuclear genes …

Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Lawson & C. Lawson var. scopulorum Engelm.) forests of
the southwestern US are threatened by climate change and deforestation. Information about …

La reproducción y el crecimiento de especies de alta montaña adaptadas a bajas
temperaturas, podrían afectarse por el calentamiento global, particularmente en altitudes …

Reproduction and growth of high mountain species adapted to low temperatures could be
