Multi-Omics analysis provides crucial insights into ecological adaptation to dryland of a dominant grass (Psammochloa villosa, Poaceae) in Northwest China

Desertification exerts dramatic selection pressures on the evolution of plants. Despite the key role of ecological adaptation by natural selection to arid grasslands and subsequent intraspecific divergence, specific mechanisms driving this process remain poorly understood. Psammochloa villosa, a perennial forage grass...
