Spenders versus savers: Climate‐induced carbon allocation trade‐offs in a recently introduced woody plant

Non‐structural carbohydrate (NSC) storage may be under strong selection in woody plant species that occur across broad environmental gradients. We therefore investigated carbon (C) allocation strategies in a widespread non‐native woody plant, Tamarix. We predicted that genotypes with exposure to epi...
