TL;DR: Differences in genome-wide DNA methylation paralleled the transcriptome level trends, whereby the clones with the most divergent transcriptomes and clone history had the most marked differences in the extent of totalDNA methylation, suggesting an epigenomic basis for the clone history-dependent transcriptome divergence.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined variation in height increment and ecophysiological traits in a range-wide collection of Populus balsamifera L. populations from 21 provenances, during unconstrained growth in a greenhouse.

TL;DR: This study provides the first comprehensive genomic resources represented by expressed sequences for sea buckthorn, and demonstrates that the seed oil of Canadian-grown sea Buckthorn cultivars contains high levels of linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid in a close to 1∶1 ratio, which is beneficial for human health.

TL;DR: It is suggested that an in‐depth knowledge of nucleotide diversity following expansion requires sampling within multiple populations, and the utility of combining insights from different data types in population genomic studies is highlighted.

TL;DR: Although there was strong population structure in stem phenology, the geographic distribution of multilocus association SNP genotypes was widespread except at the most northern populations, indicating that geographic regions may harbour sufficient diversity in functional genes to facilitate adaption to future climatic conditions in many sites.
