Evolutionary diversifications of plants on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Evolutionary diversifications of plants on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) is the highest and one of the most extensive plateaus in the world. Phylogenetic, phylogeographic and ecological studies support plant diversifications on the QTP through multiple mechanisms such as allopatric speciation via geographic isolation, climatic oscillati...
