at Northern Arizona University. Research will focus on trangenerational plasticity in
<i>Populus trichocarpa,</i> a model forest tree species. The graduate student will use laboratory and field-based approaches to investigate relative effects of genetics and within- and across generation phenotypic plasticity of plant traits relevant to adaptation
to environmental change.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Cambria",serif; color:black"></span></p>
