Comparative transcriptomic profiles of Haloxylon ammodendron under the salinity stress. [PDF]
BMC GenomicsHaloxylon ammodendron is a highly salt-tolerant plant vital for desertification control in northwest China. Despite its ecological importance, the molecular mechanisms underlying its exceptional salt tolerance remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to elucidate the temporal dynamics of its transcriptomic responses to varying salinity levels ...

Effects of Root-Root Interactions on the Physiological Characteristics of Haloxylon ammodendron Seedlings. [PDF]
Plants (Basel)The root traits and response strategies of plants play crucial roles in mediating interactions between plant root systems. Current research on the role of root exudates as underground chemical signals mediating these interactions has focused mainly on crops, with less attention given to desert plants in arid regions.

Differences and allometric relationships among assimilative branch traits of four shrubs in Central Asia [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Shrubs play a major role in maintaining ecosystem stability in the arid deserts of Central Asia. During the long-term adaptation to extreme arid environments, shrubs have developed special assimilative branches that replace leaves for photosynthesis.

Large-scale mRNA transfer between Haloxylon ammodendron (Chenopodiaceae) and herbaceous root holoparasite Cistanche deserticola (Orobanchaceae) [PDF]
iScience, 2023 Summary: Exchanges of mRNA were shown between host and stem parasites but not root parasites. Cistanche deserticola (Orobanchaceae) is a holoparasitic herb which parasitizes on the roots of woody plant Haloxylon ammodendron (Chenopodiaceae).

Different Physiological Responses to Continuous Drought between Seedlings and Younger Individuals of Haloxylon ammodendron. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2023 Drought is an important environmental factor that influences physiological processes in plants; however, few studies have examined the physiological mechanisms underlying plants’ responses to continuous drought. In this study, the seedlings and younger individuals of Haloxylon ammodendron were experimentally planted in the southern part of the ...
