Background: Perennial crops respond to climate change
Research gap analysis derived from 3 earth_science papers in our local library.
The gap
Background: Perennial crops respond to climate change through phenotypic plasticity and local adaptation, yet how these responses are orchestrated at the molecular level and reshaped by domestication remains poorly understood.
Evidence profile
Sourced from the stated challenges and abstract of the source papers, classified as general, spanning 3 journals. Those papers have been cited 1 times in total.

Climate change may modify environmental filters and facilitate propagule movement. Invasive plants may expand climatically suitable areas and alter invasion frontiers. There is a need for spatially explicit predictions of invasive plant species under climate change.

There is, however, limited knowledge about how native and invasive coastal wetland plants differ in their physiological responses to climate warming; warming may further promote invasive plant expansion at the expense of carbon sequestration.
