Salix psammophilaandCaragana korshinskiiare pioneer species used for revegetating farmlands on the Loess Plateau. Understanding the water-use strategies and physiological characteristics of these two species are important for evaluating their adaptability in water-limited ecosystems. We used stable isotopes (D and18O), physiological parameters (e.g. midday and predawn leaf water potential and stomatal conductance (ψmd, ψpdand gs, respectively)) and foliar δ13C to analyse water sources, isohydric/anisohydric behaviour, and water-use efficiency (WUE), respectively, of these two shrub species. Our results show thatS. psammophilarelied on water (mean 60%) from the intermediate soil layer (30-80 cm from the surface) during the dry period (May and June), whileC. korshinskiirelied on water from the deep soil layer (80-100 cm) (mean 52%). Both species shifted to using water from the shallow layer (0-30 cm) during the wet period (July and August) (mean 61% forS. psammophilaand 51% forC. korshinskii). These root water uptake patterns are consistent withC. korshinskii’s physiological performance, which in turn is consistent with a description thatC. korshinskiiis an anisohydric species as evidenced by a steeper slope of the relationship between ψmdand ψpd(σ, 1.88), and a larger difference between ψmdand ψpd(Δψ, -1.66 ± 0.10 MPa). In contrast,S. psammophilacould be described as an isohydric species (0.82 for σ and -0.77 ± 0.02 MPa for Δψ). Surprisingly, despite being anisohydric,C. korshinskishowed greater long-term WUE than isohydricS. psammophila, particularly during the dry season. Insofar as water availability is concerned, these results show that the environmental adaptability ofC. korshinskiimay generally be more ecologically plastic than that ofS. psammophila. Our study serves as a reference for evaluating the persistence of shrub species in relation to the management and restoration of ecosystems.
