Predict Suitable Restoration Areas for Typical Vegetation Restoration Species on the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau Based on MaxEnt

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
It was first used in the QTP vegetation restoration species, mainly to provide a basis for species selection in different regions of the QTP now and in the future. Secondly, it calculates the ecological niche overlap and niche breadth to avoid the risk of interspecies competition, providing a basis for the combination of species.

Four near-complete genome assemblies reveal the landscape and evolution of centromeres in Salicaceae

open access: yesGenome Biology
Background Centromeres play a crucial role in maintaining genomic stability during cell division. They are typically composed of large arrays of tandem satellite repeats, which hinder high-quality assembly and complicate our efforts to understand their ...

Glacial refugia, postglacial dynamics, and hybrid zones of Pinaceae in Eurasia captured from sedimentary ancient DNA

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Boreal forests cover nearly one‐third of global forest area. Glacial cycles have shaped the distribution and connectivity of modern Pinaceae genera, yet species‐level refugia, postglacial migrations, and hybridization patterns remain unclear due to limited high‐resolution taxonomic and temporal data. We applied a hybridization capture approach

The seed bank created by the dung of large herbivores drives seed circulation in an alpine meadow

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Seed circulation (i.e., sexual reproduction) is vital for the regeneration of aboveground grassland vegetation (AGV). It occurs in several steps: seed production (seed rain, SR), dispersal (endozoochory, i.e., dung seed bank, DSB), formation of the soil seed bank (SSB), germination, seedling growth, and establishment of adult plants.

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Dissolved Organic Carbon and Freshwater Browning in the Zoige Alpine Wetland, Northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

open access: yes, 2020
The concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and its light-absorbing fraction (chromophoric dissolved organic matter; CDOM) in surface waters, particularly those draining organic-rich peatlands, have dramatically increased over the past decade ...

Climate change and non-climatic drivers jointly enhanced the NDVI of alpine grassland in the Source Region of the Yellow River (2000–2022)

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
The source region of the Yellow River (SRYR) is a vital water conservation area with substantial spatial heterogeneity in grassland vegetation. Yet the respective contributions of climate change and non-climatic drivers s to that variability remain ...

Creating Flood Disasters: Environmental Memory and Adaptation in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesKōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
This article explores three questions. First, why does New Zealand have widespread flooding hazards? Second, why are these persistent, with little seemingly learned from the memory of earlier events? And third, beyond reiterating conventional solutions, what examples of alternatives or adaptations are being developed in different places?

A New and Minuscule Annual Species of Montia (Montiaceae) From Alpine Fens in Otago, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Montia minuscula Heenan is recognised as a new species from alpine habitats in Otago, South Island, New Zealand. It is currently known from only two locations, one in the Old Man Range (Kopuwai Conservation Area) and another in The Remarkables. It grows in palustrine fens that are associated with groundwater seepage such as from snowmelt and snowbanks.

THE EFFECT OF HABITAT ON METHANE EMISSION FROM AN ALPINE WETLAND

open access: yes, 2009
Alpine wetland is a source for methane (CH4), an important greenhouse gas, but little is known about how this habitat influences the emission. To understand this wetland habitats were selected at the altitude of 3430 m a.s.l.

Effect of Lactobacillus plantarum LP160 with Freeze–Thaw Resistance Characteristics on Fermentation, Bacterial Community, and Metabolomics of Oat Silage in Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

open access: yesAgriculture
Freeze–thaw cycles on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau inhibit microbial activity and challenge silage preservation. This paper aimed to elucidate how an indigenous, freeze–thaw-resistant Lactobacillus plantarum strain (LP160) improves oat silage quality ...
