Genetic differentiation in leaf phenology among natural populations of Adansonia digitata L. follows climatic clines

Leafing phenology is an important component of climatic adaptation in semi-arid regions. The questions are to what extent phenology is under genetic control and represent adaptation to local climates? In the present study, we compare leaf phenology among Adansonia digitata L. trees of 27 different o...
