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]
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
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.

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 ...

Evaluation of candidate barcoding markers in Orinus (Poaceae)
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]
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.
