Waldsteinia is a small plant genus inhabiting the temperate regions of the Northern Hemi- sphere. According to the latest revisions, Waldsteinia is included in Geum. We have obtained a phylogenetic reconstruction based on the nuclear (ITS) and plastid (trnL-trnF) DNA to understand the phylogenetic structure of Waldsteinia and its relationships with...
Using pollen analysis and metabarcoding of plant sedimentary ancient DNA, we establish the floristic diversity in the vicinity of Lake Balyktukel, Ulagan Plateau, the Altai Mountains, over the last 7 kyr. Analysis of plant DNA from lake bottom sediments is used for the first time to characterize the past vegetation of the Altai Mountains. The sedim...
Numerous high‐elevation alpine plants of the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau (QTP) also have disjunct distribution in adjacent low‐altitude mountains. The out‐of‐QTP versus into‐the‐QTP hypothesis of alpine plants provide strong evidence for the highly disputed assumption of the massive ice sheet developed in the central plateau during the Last Glacial Maxim...

In a frame of the project “Vegetation classification of Russia”, we have compiled the prodromus of two classes of aquatic vegetation, i.e. Lemnetea O. de Bolòs et Masclans 1955 and Potamogetonetea Klika in Klika et Novák. The diversity of Lemnetea in the Russian Federation is consists of 15 associations belonging to 3 alliances and one order. Diver...
Assessing biodiversity status and trends in plant communities is critical for understanding, quantifying and predicting the effects of global change on ecosystems. Vegetation plots record the occurrence or abundance of all plant species co‐occurring within delimited local areas. This allows species absences to be inferred, information seldom provid...
ABSTRACT: Despite the increasing evidence that ploidy is a factor of importance for environmental adaptation, little work has hitherto been done about cytotype patterns in aquatic plants. We tested a set of hypotheses concerning the drivers of ploidy in macrophyte communities at worldwide scale, and also how ploidy state may be related to other att...
The East Asian tree Ulmus japonica (Rehder) Sarg. is a nemoral relict species for Western Transbaikalia (See Fig. 1). A few localities of this tree are known in the region, those in the lower reaches of the Selenga River (Yugovo site; Republic of Buryatia) and the Chikoy River (Zhindo site; Zabaikalskii Krai), remote from the main distribution area...
North Asia – the Asian part of Russia – is a vast territory that occupies 1/3 of Asia, or about 13 100 000 sq. km. Floristic exploration of North Asia was bolstered in the first half of the 18th century when the emperor Peter I the Great founded the Academy of Sciences (currently, the Russian Academy of Sciences). The first complete flora of the Ru...
To determine potential drivers of the global distribution of ploidy in aquatic macrophyte species we allocated ploidy state to 1572 species occurring in 238 10 × 10° gridcells worldwide. Analysis of the relationship of 16 global-scale spatial, landscape, environmental, and biotic variables with ploidy state using Boosted Regression Trees revealed t...

In our study, we estimated the Internal transcribed spacer region (ITS)
and trnH-psbA intergenic chloroplast spacer as possible markers for species
identification of vascular plant genus Waldsteinia (Rosaceae).
Bioclimatic modeling enables not only mapping the areas of certain plant or animals species on the basis of environmental characteristics, but also investigating the influence of environmental factors on the occurrence of these species. We simulated the possible habitats of three species of higher vascular plants on the northern macroslope of the K...
In studying the structure of geosystems within the key area (125.3 km²) on the northern slope of Khamar-Daban Range, we used the method of factorial-dynamical series of facies as developed by A. A. Krauklis. Because of the composite and mosaic pattern of the study area, the typization was carried out according to the commonalty of the functional at...
Efforts are increasingly being made to classify the world’s wetland resources, an important ecosystem and habitat that is diminishing in abundance. There are multiple remote sensing classification methods, including a suite of nonparametric classifiers such as decision-tree (DT), rule-based (RB), and random forest (RF). High-resolution satellite im...
Wetland ecosystems straddle both terrestrial and aquatic habitats, performing many ecological functions directly and indirectly benefitting humans. However, global wetland losses are substantial. Satellite remote sensing and classification informs wise wetland management and monitoring. Both pixel- and object-based classification approaches using p...
