Depends on the type and location of the desert. Most deserts have endemic apex species. Most north American deserts have some form of cactus as the predominant specie, where as African deserts do not have endemic cactus species.
It is safe to say that the prevalent plant species in a hot, dry desert is zerophytic.
Of course not all deserts are hot, there are also cold deserts such as Antartica, where there are no plant species.
Depends which desert.
most are dominated by many kinds of plants which have been specially adapted to survive there such as cacti
