The phrase "a population of trees" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing a group or community of trees in a specific area, often in ecological or environmental contexts.
Example: "The forest is home to a diverse population of trees, including oaks, pines, and maples."
Alternatives: "a group of trees" or "a stand of trees".
In all three models, presence of phylogenetic signal for each character (i.e. female and male CVs) was assessed by comparing the mean parsimony character steps from the reference tree (as shown on Figure 6) with those of a population of random trees.
Evidence for phylogenetic signal in our data was evaluated in all three parsimony reconstruction algorithms by randomly modifying the reference tree, i.e. reshuffling the terminal taxa 10,000 times to generate a population of random trees for each character (female and male CVs).
For example, changes in the rotation period can alter the age distribution in a stand, potentially skewing it towards a population of younger trees.
The habitat of a population of Common tree frog Hyla arborea L. was improved by establishing set aside strips along ponds, which are located within crop fields.
The progeny was obtained from 22 clones from Asia and Africa by phenotypic selection aiming at yield and vigor of a population of rubber tree established at Central Experimental Center in Campinas, Agronomy Institute.
However, the pattern of marker ratios segregating in a population of over 100 trees suggests that H. brasiliensis behaves as a diploid (2 n = 36).
We scored 2,600 SNPs in a population of 186 unrelated trees selected on the basis of their performance in natural forests of the Aquitaine region in southwestern France, for establishment of the first generation of the maritime pine breeding program.
A second-generation apple microarray representing 26,000 transcripts was developed and was used to test these correlations in an orchard-grown population of trees segregating for fire blight resistance.
Initially a random set (or population) of trees (or programs) is created and executed recursively following chosen instructions.
