Herbarium specimens reveal links between leaf shape of <i>Capsella bursa‐pastoris</i> and climate
Our findings showed that species with inconsistent leaf shape variation can be quantified using geometric morphometric modeling techniques and that temperature is the main environmental factor influencing leaf shape variation.
