Modelling environmentally suitable areas for the potential introduction and cultivation of the emerging oil crop Paeonia ostii in China
Abstract Paeonia ostii is a traditional ornamental and medicinal species that has attracted considerable interest for its high oil value. To facilitate the effective and rational cultivation and application of P. ostii in China, it is necessary to determine its potential spatial habitat distribution...
