Population genetic structure and evolutionary history of Psammochloa villosa (Trin.) Bor (Poaceae) revealed by AFLP marker

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 15, Page 10258-10276, August 2021., 2021
1. There is abundant genetic diversity in Psammochloa villosa, but limited gene flow. 2. Within P. villosa, there is limited but noteworthy geographic structuring of populations, of which 64.2% show significant genetic variation. 3. The species experienced continuous range contraction since the last interglacial period, and the dry and cold climates ...

The Large‐billed Reed Warbler Acrocephalus orinus revisited [PDF]

open access: yesIbis, 2002
The Large‐billed Reed Warbler Acrocephalus orinus is known only from the type specimen, collected in Himachal Pradesh, India, in 1867. The specimen is poorly prepared, and it has been suggested that it could represent an isolated form of the Clamorous Reed Warbler A. stentoreus or an aberrant Blyth’s Reed Warbler A. dumetorum. We tested the affinity of

Environmental controls override grazing effects on plant functional traits in Tibetan rangelands

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 747-760, March 2020., 2020
A free Plain Language Summary can be found within the Supporting Information of this article. Abstract Plant functional traits are key to predict community responses to abiotic and biotic disturbances. Grazing is the dominant land‐use form in drylands and alpine environments, especially in Central Asian rangelands.

Effects of ecological restoration on soil properties of the aeolian sandy land around Lhasa, southern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2020., 2020
Abstract The ecological restoration of aeolian sandy land has not only improved the function of ecosystem services, such as wind prevention and sand fixation, but has also indirectly reduced the regional economic losses caused by sandstorms. However, the interaction between vegetation and soil properties after natural and artificial restoration of the ...

Development of SSR markers from transcriptomes for Orinus (Poaceae), an endemic of the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, 2017
Premise of the study:Transcriptomes were used to develop microsatellite markers for the plant genus Orinus (Poaceae), which comprises three species of grasses (O. thoroldii, O. kokonoricus, and O. intermedius) that are widely distributed in the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau.Methods and Results:Primer pairs were developed for 16 high‐quality simple sequence ...

Evaluation of candidate barcoding markers in Orinus (Poaceae)

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Research, 2016
Orinus is an alpine endemic genus of Poaceae. Because of the imperfect specimens, high level of intraspecific morphological variability, and homoplasies of morphological characters, it is relatively difficult to delimitate species of Orinus by using morphology alone. To this end, the DNA barcoding has shown great potential in identifying species.

Species delimitation in plants using the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau endemicOrinus(Poaceae: Tridentinae) as an example [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2015
Accurate identification of species is essential for the majority of biological studies. However, defining species objectively and consistently remains a challenge, especially for plants distributed in remote regions where there is often a lack of sufficient previous specimens.
