Effect of drought stress on characteristics of water consumption and photosynthesis for main arbor species in semi-arid valley of Lhasa by XIN Fumei, YANG Xiaolin, ZHAO Kentian, Luosangzhuoma

“…Investigation on the actual transpiration water consumption of main afforestation tree species can provide important guidance and theoretical basis for density control, water use, forest stability, woodland water balance and environmental capacity estimation of water resources of artificial vegetation.In this paper, four arbor species Populus szechuanica var. tibetica, Populus alba, Salix paraplesia var. subintegra and Ulmus pumila of three years old were selected in semi-arid valley of Lhasa, water consumptions of which were measured by pot seedling weight method, and net photosynthetic rate (Pn), transpiration rate (Tr) and water use efficiency (WUE) of them were investigated by Li-6400 photosynthetic system measuring method under different drought stresses. …”
