Genetic diversity of marginal populations of Populus euphratica Oliv. from highly fragmented river ecosystems

Proteome profiling of Populus euphratica Oliv. upon heat stress.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Populus euphratica is a light-demanding species ecologically characterized as a pioneer. It grows in shelter belts along riversides, being part of the natural desert forest ecosystems in China and Middle Eastern countries. It is able to survive extreme temperatures, drought and salt stress, marking itself out as an important plant species to study the mechanisms responsible ...

Genetic diversity in fragmented populations of Populus talassica inferred from microsatellites: implications for conservation.

Populus talassica Kom. is an ecologically important species endemic to central Asia. In China, its main distribution is restricted to the Ili region in the Xinjiang Autonomous Region. An understanding of genetic diversity and population structure is crucial for the development of a feasible conservation strategy. Twenty-six high-level simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were screened and used ...

Intraspecific Hybridization of Populus euphratica Oliv. Using in vitro Technique

Relating Water Use to Tree Vitality of Populus euphratica Oliv. in the Lower Tarim River, NW China

This study aimed to compare the hydraulic characteristics of different vitalities of Populus euphratica to reveal the differences in their water use strategies and water consumption to provide useful data to scale water use of riparian poplar forests in the lower reaches of the Tarim River, Northwestern China. Our results showed that the sapwood area of P. euphratica could be estimated based on...
