Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Hybridization has played an important role in the evolution and ecological adaptation of diploid and polyploid plants.

These tetraploids are often taxonomically identified as A. tridentata subsp. wyomingensis or as autotetraploids of diploid subspecies tridentata and...
