Groundwater Controls on Plant Community Structure and Species Specific Water Use Strategies in the Desert Oasis Ecotone of the Junggar Basin. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We investigated how groundwater fluctuations shape desert oasis ecotone communities via hydrological niche dynamics across a 4.8–11.8 m groundwater gradient. Species richness peaked at intermediate depths, as shallow zones faced salinity constraints and deep zones faced water limitation; plant water‐use strategies and population structures diverged ...

Sandstorms damage the photosynthetic activities of Haloxylon ammodendron seedlings

Acta Physiologiae Plantarum, 2023
AbstractHaloxylon ammodendron is a preferred shrub species for buffering against wind and fixing sand in arid sandy areas of northwest China. To determine whether sandstorms cause damage to H. ammodendron seedlings, we investigated the effects of wind-blown sands on the photosynthetic function of H.

From guest to host: parasite Cistanche deserticola shapes and dominates bacterial and fungal community structure and network complexity

Environmental Microbiome, 2023
Background Rhizosphere and plant microbiota are assumed to play an essential role in deciding the well-being of hosts, but effects of parasites on their host microbiota have been rarely studied.

Complete chloroplast genome sequence of Holoparasite Cistanche Deserticola (Orobanchaceae) reveals gene loss and horizontal gene transfer from Its host Haloxylon Ammodendron (Chenopodiaceae) [PDF]

, 2013
The central function of chloroplasts is to carry out photosynthesis, and its gene content and structure are highly conserved across land plants. Parasitic plants, which have reduced photosynthetic ability, suffer gene losses from the chloroplast (cp ...
