The Loess Plateau is well known for its severe soil erosion. Soil erosion severely interferes with the process of plant development and succession. However, plants do survive in this region of very serious soil erosion. These individuals can overcome stress and disturbance due to soil erosion through various breeding strategies, as well as through morphological and physiological compensation. Therefore, a plant is considered erosion⁃resistant when it not only has survived and adapted to the soil erosion environment, but it can also protect and improve the soil, prevent further soil erosion, regenerate itself, and maintain the plant community′s stability and sustainable development. This study was based on several years (2003—
