The variation of montane environments means that the genetics of alpine goldenrods populations differ more than their lowland cousins.

Functional traits of vascular plants colonizing alpine cushions
Global warming threatens species living in the highest and coldest areas. Alpine cushion plants are potentially endangered by stronger species expanding from lower elevations. This can be inferred from their ecological...

Conservation genetics and niche shift estimates of the endemic and vulnerable Viola cheiranthifolia
Alpine oceanic ecosystems are considered amongst the most ephemeral and restricted habitats, with a biota highly vulnerable to climate changes and disturbances. As an example of an alpine insular endemic, Rodríguez...
Ongoing gene flow among Australian alpine Poa
Recently radiated groups pose a taxonomic challenge even with extensive molecular data, as they may be genetically differentiated only at small and/or patchy regions of the genome. Griffin and Hoffmann investigate...

Contemporary gene flow in Arabis alpina
Gene flow is important in counteracting the divergence of populations but also in spreading genes among populations. Buehler et al. describe the effective mating system and contemporary gene flow in the alpine perennial...
