For centuries biologists have been extremely interested in the
structure of desert plants as examples of natural selection to
harsh environmental conditions. Indeed, desert plants are
frequently used as examples in many biology classes and textbooks
to illustrate natural selection, but this has led to an unfortunate
litany of errors and misconceptions about desert plant adaptations.
This new synthesis focuses on plants of lowland tropical and
subtropical arid deserts. Readers will be surprised to discover
that many features commonly ascribed to desert plants are rareley
observed in the most common species. Instead, the typical
structural adaptations of nonsucculent warm desert plants are now
viewed as ways to maximize photosynthetic rate.
