Responses of photosynthetic characteristics of oat flag leaf and spike to drought stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Raising crops production via improving photosynthesis has always been focused. Recently excavating and increasing the photosynthetic capacity of non-leaf organs becomes an important approach to crops yield increase.

Spatial distribution and ecological risk assessment of heavy metals in alpine grasslands of the Zoige Basin, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Heavy metals elements are not only related to the functions of ecosystems but also affect human health. To understand the characteristics of heavy metals in the topsoil of the Zoige alpine basin, a total of 252 grass and topsoil samples were collected in

Alpine constructed wetlands: A metagenomic analysis reveals microbial complementary structure

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2022
Constructed wetlands (CWs) are used to water treatment worldwide, however their application at high-altitude is poorly studied. In order to survive mountain winters, CWs rely on native flora and associated microbial communities. However, the choice of plant-microbes pairs more suitable for water treatment is challenging in alpine environments.

Comparison of Five Models for Estimating the Water Retention Service of a Typical Alpine Wetland Region in the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Model evaluation of water retention (WR) services has been commonly applied for national or global scientific assessment and decision making. However, evaluation results from different models are significantly uncertain, especially on a small regional ...

Response characteristics of root to moisture change at seedling stage of Kengyilia hirsuta

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Kengyilia hirsuta is an important pioneer plant distributed on the desertified grassland of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It has strong adaptability to alpine desert habitats, so it can be used as a sand-fixing plant on sandy alpine land.

Soil Water Content Shapes Microbial Community Along Gradients of Wetland Degradation on the Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Soil microbes are important components in element cycling and nutrient supply for the development of alpine ecosystems. However, the development of microbial community compositions and networks in the context of alpine wetland degradation is unclear.

Streptomyces paludis sp. nov., isolated from an alpine wetland soil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2020
A Gram-stain-positive actinobacterium, designated strain GSSD-12T, was isolated from an alpine wetland soil. blast search of the full-length 16S rRNA gene sequence of GSSD-12T indicated it represented a member of the genus Streptomyces , and displayed highest ...

Effects of electron acceptors on CH4 emission in alpine wetlands

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2023
Alpine wetlands are an important source of methane (CH4) and play a key role in the global carbon cycle. Their CH4 emissions largely depend on microbial CH4 production and oxidation processes that involve external electron acceptors. Seasonal precipitation drives redox cycles of humic acids (HAs), iron oxide and sulfur species, which will in turn ...
