Ecophysiological Plasticity and Cold Stress Adaptation in Himalayan Alpine Herbs: <i>Bistorta affinis</i> and <i>Sibbaldia procumbens</i>

Ecophysiological Plasticity and Cold Stress Adaptation in Himalayan Alpine Herbs: <i>Bistorta affinis</i> and <i>Sibbaldia procumbens</i>

Plants have evolved several metabolic pathways as a response to environmental stressors such as low temperatures. In this perspective, it is paramount to highlight physiological mechanisms of plant responses to altitudinal gradients as a proxy to evaluate changing environments. Here, we aimed to det...
