Can you nullify a populate effect by killing the token being targeted for the populate? For example, player 1 plays rootborn defenses and targets their angel token, in response, player 2 doom blades said token. Will populate resolve with a new token even though the target does not exist when the populate spell resolves?
Populate does not target....

Exactly. As long as there's a creature token on the field when the populate spell resolves, a token can be made.
