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.
