Quantifying niche overlap and transgression in allopolyploid hybrids: Case study of Sorbus subgenus Aria

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Apomixis, the formation of seeds without recombination, facilitates adaptation and persistence under environmental change. By preserving hybrid genotypes over long time periods, apomixis may conserve adaptive trait combinations from parental niche margins. We...
