Abstract excerpt
Understanding the relative roles of phenotypic plasticity and genetic differentiation in shaping plant phenological responses is essential for predicting forest tree responses to climate warming. Although spring and autumn phenophases respond sensitively to rising temperatures, the underlying regulatory mechanisms may differ substantially, particularly across environmental gradients. We investigated...
