Wild food plants used by the Tibetans of Gongba Valley (Zhouqu county, Gansu, China)

Conclusions:
The number of wild taxa eaten in the studied valley is relatively large compared to most studies from around the world. However, compared to the northern slope of the Qinling, in Shannxi, the list is considerably shorter, in spite of the similar methodology applied and similar research effort involved.
