Abstract

In arid and semi-arid regions, the genus Atriplex has agronomic and ecological interest.  Indeed, in addition to their good forage quality, they ensure fixation and soil enrichment. Halophytic plants are able to tolerate saline environments. They often show a diversity of structural and physiological adaptations that include salt bladders, salt glands or hairs and multiple rows of hypodermis (probable with accumulation and storage role). Related to higher salinity of soil, the halophytes react also by some adaptive, anatomical features. In order to elucidate the anatomical variability level, roots, stems and Leaves of one species of Atriplex were used:  Atriplex halimus L. The results show anatomical differences that can be linked to her degrees of adaptation to external conditions.
