To investigate the spatial variation in leaf structural traits of the desert tree species Populus pruinosa Schrenk and its association with environmental factors, 11 natural P. pruinosa populations in Xinjiang were selected as the research objects to study the morphology and anatomical traits of P. pruinosa leaves. Pearson correlation analysis, plant trait network, redundancy analysis and other methods were performed to analyze the spatial variation in leaf traits and their relationship with climatic and soil factors. The results showed that: 1) The leaf anatomical traits of P. pruinosa exhibited greater variability than their morphological traits, and leafing intensity and main vein vascular bundle area showed particularly high coefficients of variation. 2) A significant synergistic and trade-off relationship was identified between morphological and anatomical traits, with main vein vascular bundle area emerged as a central trait within the structural trait network. This suggested a pivotal regulatory role in shaping the leaf structure of P. pruinosa. 3) The annual average temperature, annual precipitation, and soil total potassium content significantly influenced the leaf structural traits of P. pruinosa. In drier habitats, P. pruinosa exhibited a resource conservation strategy of small SLA and large LTD, whereas in relatively humid environments, an opposite resource acquisition strategy was adopted.展开更多
