DOI: 10.1007/978-1-0716-2205-6_19
Abstract: The majority of forage grass species are obligate outbreeders. Their breeding classically consists of an initial selection on spaced plants for highly heritable traits such as disease resistances and heading date, followed by familial selection… read more here.

Combined effects of simulated browsing, warming and nutrient addition on forage availability for migratory caribou in Nunavik, Canada
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Polar Biology"
DOI: 10.1007/s00300-019-02543-y
Abstract: At high population size, migratory caribou (Rangifer tarandus) are regulated by forage abundance in their summer range. Climate warming likely affects forage availability by increasing productivity and advancing phenology of vegetation. Our objective was to… read more here.
