Topographic barriers drive the pronounced genetic subdivision of a range‐limited fossorial rodent

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, March 2024.
Abstract Due to their limited dispersal ability, fossorial species with predominantly belowground activity usually show increased levels of population subdivision across relatively small spatial scales. This may be exacerbated in harsh mountain ecosystems, where landscape geomorphology limits species' dispersal ability and leads to small effective ...

Soil-faunal responses differ among plateau zokor mounds with contrasting creation times and recovery durations in alpine meadows

Global Ecology and Conservation
Plateau zokors (Eospalax baileyi) are ecosystem engineers whose mound creation alters soil structure and microenvironmental conditions in alpine meadows on the Tibetan Plateau.

Microtopographic mosaics, not successional age, structure plant diversity in zokor-engineered alpine meadows within early recovery stages

Global Ecology and Conservation
Plateau zokors (Eospalax baileyi) act as ecosystem engineers in Tibetan alpine meadows by constructing soil mounds that generate fine-scale microtopographic heterogeneity.
