In order to reveal the drought resistance and adaptation of the C-4 desert plant Haloxylon ammodendron under artificially controlled soil moisture regimes, representative plants were selected to measure canopy photosynthesis using canopy photosynthetic measurement system. The results showed that appropriate soil moisture significantly enhances the canopy and leaf photosynthetic capacity, and extremely high soil moisture is not conducive to the photosynthesis of H. ammodendron.
