- Intervention effect Elevated carbon dioxide significantly increased above ground growth in F2 poplar.
- Observation Three genomic areas on linkage groups I, IX and XII were linked to above ground growth response to elevated carbon dioxide.
- Observation Three additional genomic areas on linkage groups IV, XVI and XIX were linked to root growth response to elevated carbon dioxide.
