Distichlis Spicata
''Distichlis spicata'' is a species of grass known by several common names, including seashore saltgrass, inland saltgrass, and desert saltgrass. This grass is native to the Americas, where it is widespread. It can be found on other continents as well, where it is naturalized. It is extremely salt tolerant.Mojave Desert Wildflowers, Pam MacKay, 2nd ed. 2013, p 284 Distribution and habitat ''Distichlis spicata'' thrives along coastlines and on salt flats and disturbed soils, as well as forest, woodland, montane, and desert scrub habitats. It can form dense monotypic stands, and it often grows in clonal colonies. Non-clonal populations tend to be skewed toward a majority of one sex or the other. The grass forms sod with its hearty root system. Its rhizomes have sharp points which allow it to penetrate hard soils and aerenchymous tissues, which allow it to grow underwater and in mud. This plant grows easily in salty and alkaline soils, excreting salts from its tissues via salt g ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Distichlis Bajaensis
''Distichlis bajaensis'' is a rare species of grass known by the common name Baja grass.Bell, H. L. (2010). A new species of ''Distichlis'' (Poaceae, Chloridoideae) from Baja California, Mexico. ''Madroño'' 57:1 54-63. Distribution ''Distichlis bajaensis'' is endemic to Baja California, Mexico, where it is known from only one location in a salt marsh just outside Rosarito. The habitat is an arroyo with saline and alkaline soils which is grazed by goats and burros. The grass grows alongside other halophytes including spiny rush (''Juncus acutus''), iodinebush (''Allenrolfea occidentalis''), and pickleweed (''Salicornia'' sp.). Genetic and morphological analyses show that the plant is not any other ''Distichlis'', nor a hybrid of the two most closely related ''Distichlis'', and it was described to science as a new species in 2010. Description ''Distichlis bajaensis'' is a rhizomatous perennial grass growing in short clumps and spreading via stolons. The leaf blades are no mor ...

Distichlis Distichophylla
''Distichlis distichophylla'' is a species of grass commonly known as Australian salt-grass, emu grass or pineapple grass. It is a dioecious perennial plant that grows to about 30 cm in height, with creeping rhizomes up to 1 m long. It is coarse and prickly, growing in damp, saline areas such as the fringes of saltmarshes. It often forms mats where water is abundant. Its appearance in places from which it had been absent can be an indication of rising soil salinity Soil salinity is the salt content in the soil; the process of increasing the salt content is known as salinization. Salts occur naturally within soils and water. Salination can be caused by natural processes such as mineral weathering or by the ....

Chile, officially the Republic of Chile, is a country in the western part of South America. It is the southernmost country in the world, and the closest to Antarctica, occupying a long and narrow strip of land between the Andes to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Chile covers an area of , with a population of 17.5 million as of 2017. It shares land borders with Peru to the north, Bolivia to the north-east, Argentina to the east, and the Drake Passage in the far south. Chile also controls the Pacific islands of Juan Fernández, Isla Salas y Gómez, Desventuradas, and Easter Island in Oceania. It also claims about of Antarctica under the Chilean Antarctic Territory. The country's capital and largest city is Santiago, and its national language is Spanish. Spain conquered and colonized the region in the mid-16th century, replacing Inca rule, but failing to conquer the independent Mapuche who inhabited what is now south-central Chile. In 1818, after declaring in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
