FE: Alan Knapp talks to Dylan G Fischer

Do more diverse mixtures of plants function more efficiently and take up more carbon? Previous studies have suggested this occurs frequently in grasslands when species are mixed. Other studies have now suggested that the same can be true of genetic mixtures within a species. In this podcast, Dylan G. Fischer talks about the results of the first forest ecosystem-scale experiment designed to test if more diverse mixtures of genetic stock result in more productive forests http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1365-2435.12733/full
