Comparative transcriptomics of high-altitude Vulpes and their low-altitude relatives

Comparative transcriptomics of high-altitude Vulpes and their low-altitude relatives

The harsh environment of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) imposes strong selective stresses (e.g., hypoxia, high UV-radiation, and extreme temperature) to the native species, which have driven striking phenotypic and genetic adaptations. Although the mechanisms of high-altitude adaptation have been explo...
