  "summary": "Climate change is reducing the boreal snowpack that insulates soils, exposing tree roots to more frequent freezing. The molecular cold response of roots is poorly characterised, and its conservation across the angiosperm-gymnosperm divide is unknown. We asked how much of the root cold response is shared among divergent boreal trees. We profiled fine-root transcriptomes of four boreal trees (Picea…",
