Abstract:Related to the ongoing climate change, more and more attention has been paid on small sized, range edge populations. These populations are not only geographically marginal, but they usually live at the limits of their ecological tolerance and therefore have higher ecological plasticity. While these range edge populations may play primarily role in the reorganized biomes during the climate change the study on the morphological-phenological traits and population diversity as well as evolutionary history are prio… Show more
