Differentiation in fitness-related traits in response to elevated temperatures between leading and trailing edge populations of marine macrophytes.
The nature of species distribution boundaries is a key subject in ecology and evolution. Edge populations are potentially more exposed to climate-related environmental pressures. Despite research efforts, little is known about variability in fitness-related traits in leading (i.e., colder, high lati...
