“…Species exploit different water use strategies in the trade‐off among water absorption, stomatal adjustment, leaf water potential, and carbon gain to adapt to varied soil moisture (Tang, Wen, Sun, Chen, & Wang, ; West et al, ; Zapater, Breda, Bonal, Pardonnet, & Granier, ). The root architecture system (Swaffer, Holland, Doody, Li, & Hutson, ; Yang, Wen, & Sun, ) and precipitation characteristics (Wu et al, ) are considered to be the essential factors influencing water uptake by plant species.…”
