title: [A review on the eco-physiological study of poplars in oasis and its prospect].
abstract: Poplar is the main component species in shelter forest subsystem, which forms a special kind of ecosystem in oasis with particular structure and function. Based on the studies on the ecophysiological characteristics of poplars in the Cele oasis, a preliminary comment was given on the experimental methods used at home and abroad, aim ed to facilitate the further studies on the characteristics of ecophysiology of poplars in the oasis. In order to sustain the oasis ecosystem management, the theoretical bases were also discussed on the optimization of shelter-forest structure and the selection of proper tree species.
