Local adaptation to contrasting climatic conditions in Sakhalin fir ( Abies sachalinensis) revealed by long‐term provenance trials
Abstract Conifer populations across wide geographical ranges often demonstrate adaptation to local environments related to heterogeneous climatic conditions. Long‐term provenance experiments are powerful tools for evaluating transfer effect and detecting a home‐site advantage in transplant performan...
