Artemisia halodendron Litters Have Strong Negative Allelopathic Effects on Earlier Successional Plants in a Semi-Arid Sandy Dune Region in China [PDF]
Artemisia halodendron Turcz. ex Besser occurs following the appearance of a pioneer species, Agriophyllum squarrosum (L.) Moq., with the former replacing the latter during the naturally vegetation succession in sandy dune regions in China.

Changes in soil bacterial community characteristics in patches of different vegetation types under different stages of restoration in the desert of northern China. [PDF]
In desert areas, the process of mobile sandy land changing to semi‐fixed sandy land and eventually to fixed sandy land after undergoing vegetation restoration is inevitable. The presence of shrub patches and herb patches is common in this restoration process.

Sand rice, a promising future crop for desert and marginal lands in northern China
Sand rice has great potential in complementary and gluten‐free food production and significance in ecological restoration. Domestication of sand rice is a win–win strategy for environmental sustainability and food diversity in desert regions. Developing elite lines with classical and mutagenesis breeding is essential for the large‐scale cultivation of ...

Growth and physiological responses of Agriophyllum squarrosum to sand burial stress [PDF]
Agriophyllum squarrosum is an annual desert plant widely distributed on mobile and semi-mobile dunes in all the sandy deserts of China. We studied the growth and physiological properties of A. squarrosum seedlings under different sand burial depths in 2010 and 2011 at Horqin Sandy Land, Inner Mongolia to understand the ability and mechanism that A ...
