Effects of all-trans retinoic acid and oxygen concentration on the proliferation and differentiation of subcutaneous adipocytes in yak

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
In this study, we investigated the mechanism by which all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) regulates the hypoxic adaptation of yak subcutaneous adipocytes through a dose-dependent regulation.

Soil pH thresholds mediate soil biodiversity by regulating interspecific associations in alpine wetlands of the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil pH is recognized as a major determinant of soil biodiversity. However, the extent to which soil pH regulates soil biodiversity by influencing the biotic associations among species is unclear.

Differential diversity and structure of autotrophs in agricultural soils of Qinghai Province

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
The biodiversity of CO2-assimilating bacterial communities is pivotal for carbon sequestration in agricultural systems. Changes in the diversity, structure, and activity of the soil chemolithoautotrophic bacteria were examined in four agricultural areas,

Paleoclimatic significance of mineral magnetic properties of loess sediments in northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

open access: yes, 2003
Loess deposit in the northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau offers an excellent record of climate and environment changes in this region. We have conducted multiparameter mineral magnetic analyses of samples of loess deposits from the Dongchuan, Lalakou ...

Accelerating thermokarst lake changes on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract As significant evidence of ice-rich permafrost degradation due to climate warming, thermokarst lake was developing and undergoing substantial changes. Thermokarst lake was an essential ecosystem component, which significantly impacted the global carbon cycle, hydrology process and the stability of the Qinghai-Tibet Engineering Corridor.

Legume–grass mixtures improve biological nitrogen fixation and nitrogen transfer by promoting nodulation and altering root conformation in different ecological regions of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionBiological nitrogen fixation (BNF) plays a crucial role in nitrogen utilization in agroecosystems. Functional characteristics of plants (grasses vs. legumes) affect BNF.

Resource Availability and Habitat Quality Drive Time‐Lag Effects in High‐Altitude Ungulate Distribution

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Our analysis revealed that while climate strongly influenced species distributions, habitat change drove most observed delays in distribution responses. In terms of community ecology, dispersed communities exhibited shorter time lags than concentrated groups. Analyses of lag duration revealed a 5–6‐year distribution lag effect in high‐altitude ungulate
