Evaluation of Soil Seed Banks in Different Aged Caragana microphylla Plantation in Desert Steppe Ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Soil seed bank (SSB) represents potential plant communities, which is essential in the restoration of degraded ecosystems. Consequently, SSB is crucial in the reconstruction and recovery of aboveground plants because they largely determine the process ...

Selection of lactic acid bacteria from native grass silage and its effects as inoculant on silage fermentation

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 113, Issue 4, Page 3169-3177, July/August 2021., 2021
Abstract The study aimed to isolate, characterize, and identify wild lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains from native grass silage on the Inner Mongolian Plateau, and the effects of wild LAB strains on the nutritive and fermentation characteristics of sorghum–sudangrass hybrid (Sorghum bicolor L. × S. sudanense L.) silage were also investigated.

Phenotypic plasticity of early and late successional forbs in response to shifts in resources. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We compared the phenotypic plasticity of two early successional forbs of nutrient-poor mobile dunes (Agriophyllum squarrosum and Corispermum macrocarpum) and two later successional forbs (weeds) of stabilized, higher nutrient dunes and cropland ...

Community succession along a chronosequence of vegetation restoration on sand dunes in Horqin Sandy Land [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Species diversity influences plant community structure and function. This paper examines the patterns and dynamics of species diversity along a chronosequence of vegetation recovery on sand dunes in a semi-arid region to assess the probability of ...

Sand dune stabilization changes the vegetation characteristics and soil seed bank and their correlations with environmental factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Currently the amount of data available on the effect of sand dune stabilization on species conservation in inter-dune lowland is very limited, especially for the sand dune systems in semi-arid regions.

An updated phylogeny and adaptive evolution within Amaranthaceae s.l. inferred from multiple phylogenomic datasets. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Our results strongly demonstrated that Amaranthaceae s.l. was clustered with monophyletic traditional Chenopodiaceae (Clades I and II) and Amaranthaceae s.s. based on multiple phylogenomic datasets. Phylogenetic analysis of adaptive evolution showed that positively selected genes played a driving role in the evolutionary direction of Amaranthaceae s.l.
