Species in Gentiana section Cruciata are important alpine plants with a center of diversity and speciation in Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP), and some of these species are sympatrically distributed in northeastern QTP. Studies on genome features and natural selection signatures of sympatric species in...
