 This section discusses the study findings regarding Whitebark Pine and Western White Pine, and reviews Model Refinements and Uncertainties.


Subsections found in Discussion
  • Whitebark Pine : Past climate change has shaped the biogeography of whitebark pine and, hence, genetic relationships and potential adaptive traits.
  • Western White Pine : Like whitebark pine, western white pine populations were also shaped by past climate change.
  • Model Refinements and Uncertainties : Further refinements in the plant-climate model can be achieved by integrating knowledge from molecular and quantitative genetics.
