Additionally, there are some traits, like toxicity, which can help identify poor native species candidates for relocation—traits that don't really help the plants establish, but do help them ...

Summer-only warming experiments underestimate climate change effects on plants compared to year-round temperature increases.

Researchers at the University of Southampton identified key traits that made some wild plants more suitable for domestication. These traits – plasticity, simple genetics and high mutation rates – ...

To the point. Dynamic genomic prediction: Dynamic GP can be used to predict the development of multiple traits at different points in time during a plant's growth phase. Breeding adaptable plant ...
