Abstract excerpt
The cushion rockjasmine, Androsace tapete (Primulaceae), is among the angiosperms with highest altitudal distribution in the world. Cushion rockjasmine is a prominent pioneer species in alpine deserts and alpine flowstone slope habitats up to 5,300 m on Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. In this study, we use inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers to investigate the spatial genetic structure of A. tapete at both...
