Ecological functions of plants in arid regions from "summary" of Floristic Study of Arid Ecosystem: Ecology and Phytosociology by Dr. Ekta B. Joshi,Dr. Hiren B. Soni ,Dr. Pankaj N. Joshi

Plants in arid regions play vital roles in maintaining ecological balance by performing various functions that are essential for the survival of both the flora and fauna in these harsh environments. One of the most crucial functions of plants in arid regions is their ability to conserve water. Many plants in these regions have developed specialized adaptations such as deep root systems, succulent leaves, and thick cuticles to minimize water loss through transpiration and to store water for times of drought. Furthermore, plants in arid regions also play a key role in stabilizing the soil and preventing erosion. Their root systems help bind the soil together, preventing it from being washed away by wind or water. This is particularly impor...
