Leaf water uptake strategy of plants in the arid and semi-arid region of Ningxia by CHEN Lin, YANG Xinguo, SONG Naiping, YANG Mingxiu, XIAO Xupei, WANG Xing

“…Our objective was to investigate whether the plant leaf can uptake the rainfall that can not be absorbed by plant roots, and to understand leaf water uptake strategy, the relationship between leaf water uptake capability and plant ecological functional types in the arid and semi-arid region of Ningxia.The leaf water uptake content (LWUC), percentage increase in leaf water content (RW), chlorophyll content (ChlC), leaf water saturation deficit (WSD), specific leaf area (SLA) and leaf dry matter content (LDMC) of 50 plants were measured, and patterns of leaf traits were investigated to detect their difference among functional groups and relationships between each trait. …”
