The effect of elevational gradient on alpine gingers (Roscoea alpina and R. purpurea) in the Himalayas
There is currently enormous interest in how morphological and physiological responses of herbaceous plants may be affected by changing elevational gradient. Mountain regions provide an excellent opportunity to understand how closely related species may adapt to the conditions that rapidly change wit...
