This study assessed the diversity and distribution of endophytic fungal communities associated with leaves stems four vascular plant species in High Arctic using 454 pyrosequencing fungal-specific primers targeting ITS region. Endophytic showed high diversity. The 76,691 sequences obtained belonged to 250 operational taxonomic units (OTUs). Of these OTUs, 190 Ascomycota, 50 Basidiomycota, 1 Chytridiomycota, 9 unknown fungi. dominant orders were Helotiales, Pleosporales, Capnodiales,...
Abstract Unlike plains, mountains provide diverse habitats for various biomes due to complex topography and large altitudinal differences. It is crucial objectively reconstructing deep‐time biodiversity changes that the pollen source, dispersal, driving forces in montane ecosystems are studied. Here, we investigate surface soil samples from different vertical zones Hengduan Mountains. Results show assemblages generally reflect dominant components of warm temperate coniferous forest cold...
For more than five decades, research has been conducted at Ny-Ålesund, in Svalbard, Norway, to understand the structure and functioning of High-Arctic ecosystems profound impacts on them environmental change. Terrestrial, freshwater, glacial marine are accessible year-round from providing unique opportunities for interdisciplinary observational experimental studies along physical, chemical, hydrological climatic gradients. Here, we synthesize terrestrial freshwater Ny-Ålesund review current...
Based on qualitative and quantitative melissopalynological analyses, 19 Chinese honeys were classified by botanical origin to determine their floral sources. The honey samples collected during 2010–2011 from the central region of Shanxi Province, North China. A diverse spectrum 61 pollen types 37 families was identified. Fourteen as unifloral, whereas remaining multifloral. Bee-favoured (occurring in more than 50% samples) included Caprifoliaceae (found 10 samples), Laminaceae (10),...
Abstract The uplift of the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau shaped landforms and influenced Asia's climate system ecosystem. Vegetations on are first to be affected by history related ecological impacts. However, original research vegetation in central remains limited. Here, we reconstructed Lunpola Basin, from 24.3 16 Ma based pollen data Dingqinghu Formation. Pollen assemblages reveal a temperate mixed deciduous broad‐leaved coniferous forest around paleolake during latest Oligocene Early Miocene. An...
Yuanmou Basin of Yunnan, SW China, is a famous locality with hominids, hominoids, mammals and plant fossils. Based on the published megaflora palynoflora data from Basin, climate Late Pliocene reconstructed using Coexistence Approach. The results indicate warm humid subtropical mean annual temperature ca. 16–17°C precipitation 1500–1600 mm in rather than dry, hot today, which may be due to local tectonic change gradual intensification India monsoon. comparison Eryuan, Yangyi, Longling,...
Abstract. We present the first gridded and temporally continuous quantitative pollen-based plant-cover reconstruction for temperate northern subtropical China over Holocene (11.7 ka to present) obtained by applying Regional Estimates of VEgetation Abundance from Large Sites (REVEALS) model. The objective is provide a dataset land cover last ca. 12 millennia that suitable palaeoclimate modelling evaluation simulated past vegetation dynamic models anthropogenic land-cover change (ALCC)...
The evolution of the Asian monsoon from Late Oligocene to Early Miocene is poorly understood. Here, we first reconstruct precipitation data central Tibet during 26–16 million years ago (Ma), applying coexistence approach sedimentary pollen data, and detect an intensified with ∼1.35 Ma ∼0.33 cycles. Paleoclimate modeling used show importance paleogeographic location in development paleomonsoon. In addition, results spectral analysis suggest that fluctuations can be attributed long-period...
Abstract Members of the Chenopodiaceae are most dominant elements in central Asian desert. The different genera and species within this family common desert vegetation types. Should it prove possible to link pollen types specific vegetation, would be feasible trace successions geological past. Nevertheless, morphological similarity grains rarely permits identification at generic level. Although some classifications have been proposed, none them tried order explore their ecological...
Abstract. The Hengduan Mountains, with their strong altitudinal vegetation zonation, form a biodiversity hotspot which offers the potential for comparison between sites in order to understand how this zonation arose and it has responded climate change human impacts through time. This paper presents 22 570-year pollen record of vegetational climatic based on core 320 cm depth collected from Wenhai Lake Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, one highest peaks Mountains region Yunnan, Southwest China. From...
