Temperature-stress resistance and tolerance along a latitudinal cline in North American Arabidopsis lyrata.
The study of latitudinal gradients can yield important insights into adaptation to temperature stress. Two strategies are available: resistance by limiting damage, or tolerance by reducing the fitness consequences of damage. Here we studied latitudinal variation in resistance and tolerance to frost...
