Intraspecific Variability of Xylem Hydraulic Traits of <i>Calligonum mongolicum</i> Growing in the Desert of Northern Xinjiang, China

Intraspecific Variability of Xylem Hydraulic Traits of <i>Calligonum mongolicum</i> Growing in the Desert of Northern Xinjiang, China

Plant hydraulic traits are essential for understanding and predicting plant drought resistance. Investigations into the mechanisms of the xylem anatomical traits of desert shrubs in response to climate can help us to understand plant survival strategies in extreme environments. This study examined t...
