Abstract: Taking Tamarix chinensis L. in Laizhou Bay wetland as test object, this paper analyzed the seasonal variations of the leaf nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) stoichiometry and their correlations with soil salt concentration. The leaf N and P contents and N/P ratio of T. chinensis ranged 18.39-32.86 g·kg^-1, 1.02-3.16 g·kg^-1, and 8.62-23.66, with a mean value of 25.74 g·kg^-1, 1.75 g·kg^-1, and 15.86, respectively. The seasonal variations of the leaf N and P contents presented a trend of decreasing first and increasing then, with a shape of “inverted parabola”, while an opposite trend was observed for the leaf N/P ratio. The growth of T. chinesis was limited by N at the beginning of the growth season (May), but by P in the middle and late stages of the growth season (July-October). There was a definite positive correlation between the leaf N content and soil salt concentration (P=0.063), a significant negative correlation between the leaf P content and soil salt concentration (P<0.05), and a very significant positive correlation between the leaf N/P ratio and soil salt concentration (P<0.01).
