High-altitude hypoxia provides a natural laboratory for studying adaptation in plateau mammals. As an interface for oxygen and nutrient exchange, placenta plays a critical role in fetal development. While high-altitude adaptation in systemic physiological responses and cardiopulmonary tissues has been well-studied, a comprehensive landscape of porcine placental transcriptomic diversity and alternative splicing (AS) complexity across altitudes remains lacking.

Objective: To explore the morphological changes, growth conditions and artificial propagation of Hypericum ascyron.
Methods: The morphological changes were observed and recorded in the scene, the height and diameter of the plants were measured; the growth Verhaulst model was set up with the SPSS 17.0 software; the sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction were carried out in artificial cultivation.
