It is believed that transferring the C4 engine into C3 crops will greatly increase the yields of major C3 crops. Many efforts have been made since the 1960s, but relatively little success has been achieved because C4plant traits, referred to collectively as C4 syndrome, are very complex, and little is known about the genetic mechanisms involved. Unfortunately, there exists no ideal genetic mode...

Afforestation is an important and effective way to curb wind-sand hazards in the Alxa Desert. However, over-afforestation makes soil drying occur frequently. The formation of a layer seriously restricting effectiveness vegetation construction regional ecological stability. To clarify process desiccation Haloxylon ammodendron plantations determine suitable planting years, typical H. plantation t...

One of the ordinary methods to protect, rehabilitate, and enhance an ecosystemfunction in arid and semi-arid areas of the world is sand dune stabilization using biologicalpractices. Plantation of species on the soil plays a great role in sustainable management ofthe ecosystem. This research studies the effects of cultivation of Haloxylon ammodendronand Atriplex canescens on physical-chemical ch...

Water and nitrogen sources have always been the primary limiting factors for vegetation growth in arid semi-arid regions play an important role physiological ecology of vegetation. In this work, we studied effects water deficit addition on traits rhizosphere bacterial microbial community Haloxylon ammodendron seedlings sterilized non-sterilized soil habitats. A pot experiment was conducted to c...

Abstract This paper presents a quantitative account of vegetation–environmental factor relationships in arid rangelands. Vegetation cover was recorded using Braun-Blanquet combined abundance-cover scale in each quadrat. Within each quadrat, one profile was dug and soil samples being taken at 0-20cm and 20-100cm depths. Under study physical-chemical characteristics included texture, lime, orga...
