Toward improved drought tolerance in bioenergy crops: QTL for carbon isotope composition and stomatal conductance in Populus

Dedicated non-food bioenergy crops like poplar are needed as sustainable, low-input feedstocks for renewable energy in a future drier climate, where they can be grown on marginal soils. Such plants should have a low water, carbon, and chemical footprint. Capturing natural variation in traits associa...
