Heritable plant phenotypes track light and herbivory levels at fine spatial scales

2017-10-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The biotic and the abiotic environment play a major role in shaping plant phenotypes and their geographic distributions. However, little is known about the extent to which plant phenotypes match local patterns of herbivory across fine-grained habitat mosaics, despite the strong effect of herbivory on plant fitness. Through a reciprocal transplant-common garden experiment with clonally propagated...
