Abstract: Abstract: The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) is the world's highest plateau, and one of the biodiversity hotspots. With rich biological resources, it has become a natural laboratory for investigating and developing the sustainable utilization of resources. In this paper, we summarized the characteristics of biological resources in QTP, and provided a checklist of valuable and rare as well as endangered species. We also discussed the prospect of utilization of biological resources in QTP, especially the potential applications of new biotechnologies in this field.
