Abstract

One of the plants that is used for the rehabilitation and development of arid and semi-arid rangelands in recent years is A triplex. Given that this plant is an imported species in the most area, it can affect the components of ecosystems, particularly the soil. In this study, the effect of Atriplex lentiformis on the soil characteristics are studied and compared in Share Rey area – in three areas of control, near the plants and between the plants. Results showed that there is a significant difference between the amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, organic matter, salinity and acidity of the soil in three areas of control, near the plants and between the plants and the amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, organic matter, salinity and soil acidity have increased 58.37%, 6.24%, 61.3%, 40.9%, 12.6% and 78.66%, respectively, in near the plant compared to the control area.
