Abstract excerpt

Giant kelp, Macrocystis pyrifera, exists as distinct morphological variants-or "ecomorphs"-in different populations, yet the mechanism for this variation is uncertain, and environmental drivers for either adaptive or plastic phenotypes have not been identified. The ecomorphs Macrocystis "pyrifera" and M. "integrifolia" are distributed throughout temperate waters of North and South America with almost no...
