Mechanisms of species range shift: germination and early survival of Great Basin bristlecone pine and limber pine

Aims To examine the potential mechanistic predictors of germination and first-year survival in two species of Great Basin sub-alpine trees along an elevation gradient on three soil types. Methods Using a network of experimental gardens, we sowed limber pine and Great Basin bristlecone pine along ele...
