Genomic Adaptive Evolution of Sand Rice (Agriophyllum squarrosum) and Its Implications for Desert Ecosystem Restoration

Natural selection is a significant driver of population divergence and speciation of plants. Due to local adaptation to geographic regions with ecological gradients, plant populations harbored a wide range of adaptive genetic variation to enable them to survive the heterogeneous habitats. This is al...
