The paper examines how phenotypic plasticity in Populus species affects fitness under climate warming, finding that higher plasticity is maladaptive in warmer environments.

The paper predicts geographic shifts in hybrid Populus zones based on temperature response variation in admixed genotypes.

This study examines how climate and hybridization influence stomatal trait evolution in Populus by analyzing genetic and environmental factors across hybrid zones.

The paper examines cytonuclear interactions in Populus hybrids, finding that chloroplast and nuclear-chloroplast gene co-introgression is limited but influenced by local environments, affecting physiological performance.

The paper develops genomic resources to improve American chestnut resistance to pathogens through breeding and gene editing.

The paper identifies three seed zones for conserving adaptive genomic diversity in American chestnut to restore disease-resistant populations across its historical range.

This study uses whole-genome resequencing to analyze population structure, genomic diversity, and demographic history of American chestnut, identifying regions under positive selection for blight resistance.

This paper demonstrates that focused ultrasound extraction (FUSE) rapidly and efficiently extracts high-quality DNA from plant tissues compared to conventional methods.

The paper uses genomic selection analyses to show that blight tolerance in chestnut hybrids is polygenic, not controlled by major genes, and that higher American chestnut genome inheritance correlates with lower blight tolerance.
