Water acquisition via the root system of woody species is a key factor governing plant physiology. In order to compare impact water on hydraulic and photosynthetic characteristics different-sized Populus euphratic, which desert riparian tree species, we quantified leaf conductance (KL), stomatal (gs), net rate (PN), predawn midday potential (Ψ), stem δ18O saplings mature trees. The results show...

Populus euphratica is an important tree species in desert ecosystems. The protection and restoration of natural forests requires accurate positioning information. use Sentinel-2 images to map the distribution at a large scale faces challenges associated with discriminating between Tamarix chinensis. To address this problem, study selected Daliyabuyi Oasis hinterland Taklimakan Desert as site so...

Leaf epidermal micromorphology and mesophyll structure during the development of Populus euphratica heteromorphic leaves, including linear, lanceolate, ovate, dentate ovate, dentate rhombic, dentate broad-ovate and dentate fan-shaped leaves, were studied by using electron and light microscopy. During development of heteromorphic leaves, epidermal appendages (wax crystals and trichomes) and spec...
