trait encoding for short plant structure to reduce transport of water

The Sahara Desert is a zone which receives very low or no precipitation. This region receives maximum of sunlight not received by any other biome. The soil is typically sand which is highly porous and lacks essential growth nutrients necessary for plant growth. The plants grown around Sahara Desert are xerophytic plants.
