Transgenerational Genetic Effects Help Explain Latitudinal Variation in Seed Mass and Germination Timing in <i>Plantago lanceolata</i>

Transgenerational Genetic Effects Help Explain Latitudinal Variation in Seed Mass and Germination Timing in <i>Plantago lanceolata</i>

We know little about the underlying genetic control of phenotypic patterns of seed traits across large-scale geographic and environmental gradients. Such knowledge is important for understanding the evolution of populations within species and for improving species conservation. Therefore, to test fo...
