Track 4-1-2: Breeding Cultivated Forage Species for Biomass, Quality and Stress Tolerance
Description
The genus Caragana of legume family is endemic to the temperate grasslands of Eurasia (Cao et al., 1999). Caragana species are broadly distributed in the temperate Asia zone (E30°–140°, N28°–56°). Caragana microphylla, Caragana davazamcii, and Caragana korshinskii are typical representatives of the genus Caragana in central Asia. The three Caragana species exhibit a geographically substituted distribution from east (semi arid habitat) to west (arid habitat) on the Mongolian Plateau. Existing studies investigating the reasons for the interspecific geographical transition of the three Caragana species have primarily focused on RAPD analysis, photosynthetic capacity, and hydraulic architecture. In contrast, information on the adjustment mechanisms in Ψπ changes remains limited; particularly regarding the relative contributions of the main three regulatory mechanisms knows little.
