Gene Flow Results in High Genetic Similarity Between Sibiraea (Rosaceae) species in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Studying closely related species and divergent populations provides insight into the process of speciation. Previous studies showed that the Sibiraea complex's evolutionary history on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) was confusing and could not be distinguishable on the molecular level. In thi...
