Genome-wide analysis of Cushion willow provides insights into alpine plant divergence in a biodiversity hotspot
Exceptional alpine plant diversity exists in the Hengduan Mountains. Here, through genome assembly and population genomics studies, the authors find notable intraspecific divergence among Cushion willow populations isolated by the sky island-like habitats and consider it contributes to speciation an...
