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.

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.

Leaf size variations in a dominant desert shrub, Reaumuria soongarica, adapted to heterogeneous environments

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 18, Page 10076-10094, September 2020., 2020
The variations in leaf size along environmental gradients within the species range of Reaumuria soongarica were investigated. Our study shows that there are significant differentiations of leaf size and environmental conditions between genetic lineages in this species.
