Species distribution modelling and seed germination of four threatened snow lotus (Saussurea), and their implication for conservation

Plant environmental envelops and seed regenerative traits of high altitude plants may contribute to competitiveness or endangerment under abiotic conditions that enforce a short growing season. Here, we investigate the factors threatening the existence of four, typical snow lotus species (Saussurea...
