Potential plant extinctions with the loss of the Pleistocene mammoth steppe by Jérémy Courtin, Kathleen R. Stoof-Leichsenring, Simeon Lisovski, Ying Liu, Inger Greve Alsos, Boris K. Biskaborn, Bernhard Diekmann, Martin Melles, Bernd Wagner, Luidmila Pestryakova, James Russell, Yongsong Huang, Ulrike Herzschuh

“…Here, we introduce a method for detection of plant taxa loss at regional (extirpation) to potentially global scale (extinction) and their causes, as determined from ancient plant DNA metabarcoding in sediment cores (sedaDNA) from lakes in Siberia and Alaska over the past 28,000 years. Overall, potential plant extinctions track changes in temperature, in vegetation, and in megafauna extinctions at the Pleistocene-Holocene transition. …”
