生境破碎化后濒危植物缙云卫矛种群的数量动态

运用种群静态生命表、生殖力表和Leslie矩阵模型,研究了重庆特有濒危植物缙云卫矛在北温泉、鸡公山和东温泉3个片断生境中种群的数量动态。静态生命表结果显示3个种群的最大龄级分别为14、13、9龄;相对于其它两个种群,北温泉种群表现出数量较多的幼苗,但同时该样地幼苗种群表现出较高的种群消失率（K_x）。种群生殖力表显示3个种群的净增殖率（R₀）均大于1,内禀增长率（r_m）均大于0,表明缙云卫矛种群可以完成自我更新,种群表现出正增长。Leslie矩阵模型对缙云卫矛种群进行的数量预测结果显示缙云卫矛3个种群20年后均表现出数量的增长,这与生殖力表显示的结果一致。缙云卫矛的濒危可能是其生境破碎化引起的。     

濒危植物长柄双花木自然种群数量动态

 运用种群生命表、生殖力表、Leslie矩阵模型和时间序列预测分析方法,研究了濒危植物长柄双花木(Disanthus cercidifolius var. longipes)种群的动态变化过程,揭示了长柄双花木各龄级植株的数量动态规律。结果表明：长柄双花木为缓慢负增长型种群;种群的净增殖率、内禀增长率以及周限增长率都较低,世代平均周期较长;Leslie矩阵模型和时间序列预测分析均表明在未来50年内长柄双花木各年龄级种群数量会出现波动性的消长,但其种群总数将逐步下降。导致种群下降的主要原因可能是人为砍伐及由此造成的生境破碎化等。

滇牡丹自然种群数量动态

运用种群静态生命表、存活曲线、生殖力表和Leslie矩阵模型研究了中国西南特有濒危植物滇牡丹(Paeonia delavayi)种群数量动态过程。静态生命表和种群存活曲线表明: 滇牡丹在株龄3-6 a之间经历了较强的环境筛, 其单株生理寿命为15 a左右, 平均周期为8 a, 种群的净增殖率(R₀ = 0.985 7)、内禀增长率(r_m = -0.001 7)和周限增长率(λ = 0.998 3)表明其为衰退型种群; 滇牡丹种群存活表现为台阶型曲线(B1型), 分别在6 a和12 a阶段种群消亡率(K_x)较高。Leslie矩阵模型的模拟结果表明, 在未来30 a内种群数量呈现出下降趋势, 大约下降了50%, 其种群数量靠自身根系的萌蘖和种子繁殖共同维持。野生滇牡丹种群数量下降与其自身繁殖特性有关, 但主要原因是人为采挖和生态环境的破坏。

干旱胁迫下藜的光合特性研究

通过人工控制水分模拟干旱来研究生长期的藜对干旱胁迫的生理生化反应,以期望为干旱农业的高效生产提供理论依据。以盆栽的藜为材料,用称重控制浇水的方法,研究了干旱胁迫对藜叶片的光合特性。结果表明：干旱胁迫下藜的光合日变化呈双峰型,有“午休”现象（13:00）且受气孔限制;最大净光合速率出现在上午8:00。与正常条件下生长的藜相比,干旱胁迫下藜的光饱和点(LSP)、最大净光合速率(Pn)、表观量子效率(AQY)、二氧化碳饱和点(CSP)和羧化效率(CE)均降低,分别为1 200 μmolphoton·m^-2·s^-1、8.01 μmol CO₂·m^-2·s^-1、0.016 1 μmol CO₂·mol^-1 photons、1 200 μmol CO₂·mol^-1、0.017 6 μmol CO₂·m^-2·s^-1;光补偿点(LCP)、二氧化碳补偿点(CCP)升高,分别达到44.88 μmol photon·m^-2·s^-1、和46 μmol CO₂·mol^-1,干旱使藜的光合能力下降。干旱胁迫下藜的光合能力虽有所下降,但与其它C3植物相比仍具有较强的CO₂同化能力。藜是一种耐旱力较强的植物。

沙丘坡面异质性小生境中准噶尔无叶豆对水分条件变化的响应

以多年生克隆植物准噶尔无叶豆(Eremosparton songoricum(Litv.)Vass.)为材料,选择河边(A种群)和沙漠腹地(B种群)两个沙丘,研究从沙丘底部至顶部,沿着水分条件连续变化的梯度,准噶尔无叶豆在分株种群和克隆片段水平的形态变化特征,以期能揭示其在异质性小生境内利用水分资源的对策,并为准噶尔无叶豆的资源保护、培育和利用提供有意义的参考.研究发现:①在分株种群水平,A种群分株高度及地上部生物量显著高于B种群,而B种群地下部(根)的生物量则显著高于A种群;②在克隆片段水平,随着沙丘底部至顶部,A种群与B种群克隆片段高度和地上生物量都减小,而分株密度都增加,但升高或降低的强度不同;A种群根的生物量和长度增加,主要是水平的位于地下0～10 cm层面的直径10mm以下的根长度增加,而B种群根的生物量减小,但长度却在增加,主要是水平的位于地下0～10 cm层面的直径6mm以下的细根长度增加.水平细根的长度增加,更利于无性系进行广泛觅食,同时促进无性系尽快越过不利生境斑块和提高分株在有利生境中的生长概率.结果表明,准噶尔无叶豆对沙丘坡面水分条件连续变化的异质性小生境存在分株种群及克隆片段两个等级的可塑性响应,并通过可塑性变化适应了沙丘坡面水分条件的分异.     

不同水分下准噶尔无叶豆分株种群特征和生物量分配差异

Evidence for Essential Maintenance Respiration of Leaves of Xanthium Strumarium at High Temperature

Mesophyll resistance to photosynthetic carboxylation (r'_m) wasused as a criterion for leaf integrity. It was measured, at25 °C, in the light, before and after periods of high temperature(3 h at 38 °C) in the dark. During the high temperatureperiods, respiration (R_D) of attached leaves of Xanthium strumariumwas suppressed from 27%-36% by either low [O₂] (1.04% or 0.21%v.v.) or high [CO₂] (840 µl 1^–1) in the ambientair. Neither treatment affected rates of R_D or photo-respirationduring the second period at 25 °C. There was no significant increase of r'_m when R_D was not suppressedduring the high temperature treatment. When R_D was suppressedat high temperatures, r'_m increased from about 3s cm^–1before, to about 26 s cm^–1 after the high temperaturetreatment. The increase depended upon the degree of suppression. It is concluded that increased R_D at high temperature in Xanthiumleaves is partly the result of an increase of energy demandingmaintenance. The subsequent rate of carbon dioxide fixationis reduced when this increase of maintenance-induced respirationis inhibited.     

ASPECTS OF LIFE CYCLE, POPULATION DYNAMICS, GROWTH AND SECONDARY PRODUCTION OF THE PULMONATE SNAIL CEPAEA VINDOBONENSIS (FERUSSAC, 1821) IN NORTHERN GREECE

The life cycle, population dynamics, growth and secondary productionof the land snail C. vindobonensis were studied in northernGreece. Demographic analysis of the populations of C. vindobonensisrevealed that a) three cohorts were present in the field throughoutthe year, b) the reproductive period started in late April-Mayand the newly hatched snails appeared in the beginning of June,and c) increased growth rates were observed during spring andearly summer, but also during autumn for the newly hatched snails. According to von Bertalanffy's method C. vindobonensis needs7 years to attain its maximum size measured in the field. Mortalityrate is very high during the first year of life, while lifeexpectancy is higher during the second year of life and decreasesafterwards. Net reproductive rate (R_o) was equal to 3.1 andthe finite capacity for increase (antilog_er_c) was equal to 1. Estimated annual secondary production with Hynes' frequencymethod revealed a mean standing crop (B) of 0.99 g/m²/year anda production (P) of 1.3 ± 0.11 g/m²/year. Annual turnoverratio (P/B) was equal to 1.31. (Received 7 April 1997; accepted 2 October 1997)     

不同居群准噶尔无叶豆果实和种子特性及种子萌发差异

研究准噶尔无叶豆(Eremosparton songoricum) 6个居群间果实和种子特性及种子萌发差异, 以揭示异质生境下准噶尔无叶豆果实和种子的生态适应机制。结果显示: 居群间准噶尔无叶豆的植株距离(F = 2.34, p = 0.03)和植株冠幅(F = 8.49, p < 0.01)存在显著差异, 沙漠北缘E、F居群和沙漠腹地C居群(受人类干扰剧烈)的植株距离和植株冠幅高于沙漠腹地A、B、D居群; 居群间准噶尔无叶豆果实和种子的长度、宽度、厚度、重量存在显著差异, 居群E、F和C的大部分参数显著高于其他沙漠腹地居群; 居群间果实多子性(F = 6.96, p < 0.01)也存在显著差异, 居群C的果实多子性最高((32.50 ± 4.79)%); 萌发结果表明, 居群间新鲜的成熟种子萌发不存在显著差异, 且萌发率都低于15%; 所有居群的大部分种子都存在物理性休眠现象, 人为划破种皮能显著提高种子萌发率, 但在低温(15/5 ℃)条件下, 所有居群的种子萌发率都较低, 说明低温抑制了种子萌发; 经人为划破种皮解除物理休眠后, 种子的休眠没有完全释放, 居群C、E和F (大种子居群)的种子萌发率显著高于居群A、B和D (小种子居群) (F = 30.77, p < 0.01), 说明准噶尔无叶豆种子不仅存在物理性休眠现象, 也可能存在生理休眠现象。不同程度的种子复合休眠可能是准噶尔无叶豆不同居群适应古尔班通古特沙漠的重要生存策略。     

Some ecological parameters of Artemia parthenogenetica Gahai and their use in resource exploitation

The effects of temperature on population characteristics of Artemia parthenogenetica Gahai from the Gahai Salt Lake, Qinghai Province, China, were studied in the laboratory at a salinity of 60‰. The major conclusions are as follows: (1) It was found that the adaptive temperature for the development of brine shrimp ranged from 10°C to 39°C. The threshold temperature of development (TD) and the effective accumulative temperature (TA) for hatching were 9.94°C·d and (22.91±2.08)°C·d, respectively. The TD and TA for the larva were 10.33°C·d and (261.26±24.1)°C·d, respectively, and for the whole generation were 10.28°C and (458.68±57.60)°C·d, respectively. (2) It showed that the population’s net reproduction rate (R_o), the intrinsic rate of natural increase (r_m), the mean generation time (T), the finite rate of increase (λ), and the days for population to double (t) of the brine shrimp were determined over temperatures ranging from 19°C to 34°C by analyzing the life table and numerical model. In the temperature range of 14.3°C to 37.3°C for R_o>1, the optimum temperature (°C) for R_o, r_m, λ, and t were 25.8°C, 29.8°C, 30.5°C, and 29.02°C, respectively. The maximum values of R_o, r_m and λ were 54.86 ind., 0.106138/d, and 1.1070/d, respectively. The minimum value of t was 4.73 d. The value of T was in a range of 96.77 to 16.10 d. (3) Based on the 1993–1994 and 1997 data of the water temperature in the Gahai Salt Lake, Qinghai Province, it was estimated that the number of generation of A. parthenogenetica Gahai and the number of the reproductive peak value were 2.67±0.34 and 4.69±0.43 in a year, respectively. The peak of nauplii of the first generation was on April 20 to 28. The last whole generation began on August 10. The first reproductive peak was on June 18 to 25. The last reproductive peak was on September 12 to 17. The nauplii that hatched after September 1 cannot complete the development from nauplii to adults because of insufficient habitat effective accumulative temperature. During the period from July 11 to September 20, there was a relatively high productivity of the population. In this case, doubling the population would take less than 30 d, and the intrinsic rate of natural increase was over 0.02/d. Therefore, the value of resource exploitation would be maximal during that period annually.     

Shell shape variation in the Nassariid Buccinanops globulosus in northern Patagonia

Morphological variation among natural populations is a phenomenon commonly observed in marine invertebrates and well studied, particularly, in shelled gastropods. The nassariid Buccinanops globulosus is interesting to study shell shape variation because it exhibits strong interpopulation differences in life history features, including maximum size, fecundity and growth rate. In this study, we examined the pattern of variation in size and shell shape among populations and between sexes of B. globulosus (Bahía San Antonio 40°29′S 63°01′W, Playa Villarino 40°45′S 64°40′W and Bahía Nueva 42°46′S 65°02′W). In particular, we used geometric morphometric techniques to test: (1) whether the two components of shell morphology (size and shape) are independent and (2) whether shape differences between sexes are consistently found among populations, regardless of their body sizes. Our results show shell shape variation between the populations of B. globulosus of northern Patagonia. Intra-specific shell shape variation is affected by body size, indicating allometry. Regardless of the size differences, individuals from Playa Villarino have high-spired shells, and shorter apertures and wider columellar area than individuals from the other populations. Also, sex-related shape differences were consistently found at each population, thus suggesting a common sexual dimorphism in shell morphology for this species. The functional significance of the variability found is discussed in terms of the flexibility of developmental programmes for morphology as well as the evolution of phenotypic plasticity.     

Effects of four constant temperatures on the development of two Bradysia (Diptera: Sciaridae) species

In this study, the effects of temperature on the growth, development, survival, fecundity and other population parameters of two local Bradysia species B. odoriphaga and B. impatiens were studied at four constant temperatures (25, 28, 31 and 34°C). The results show that 25°C is the optimum temperature for the growth and development of B. odoriphaga, while 28°C is more favourable for B. impatiens. The temperature of 31°C restricted the growth and development, while the temperature of 34°C inhibited the eggs hatching in both species, resulting in no egg survival and no subsequent development. High temperatures (>28°C) prolonged the 4th larval stage duration, mean generation time (T) and population doubling time (Dt) of both species. The high temperature of 31°C greatly shortened the female longevity, weakened the oviposition and reduced the survival of both species. Moreover, the life table parameters R₀, r_m and λ were also suppressed by this high temperature. However, the high temperature of 31°C had little impact on the egg survival, pupal weight and male longevity. In addition, at 31°C, the values of R₀, r_m and λ of B. odoriphaga were higher than those of B. impatiens, suggesting that B. odoriphaga is more tolerant to high temperature than B. impatiens. The differences between two Bradydsia species seem determined genetically. Our findings are important for better understanding their biological characteristics at a certain constant temperature and demonstrate the possibility to control and manage those two Bradysia species by increasing ambient temperature.     

Length‐weight and length–length relationships of three algae‐scraping cyprinid species from Iran

The study presents length–weight relationships (LWRs) and length–length relationships (LLRs) for three algae‐scraper species; Capoeta coadi from the Kouhrang River (Iran; 32°23′N, 50°08′E) a part of the Tigris drainage basin, Capoeta pyragyi from Cheshmeh Langan River (32°55′N, 50°10′E) a part of Zayanderud River basin and Capoeta umbla from Chooman River (35°57′N, 45°47′E). Fish were sampled by electro fishing (Samus1000; Power Out: 200 watts) in August, September and October 2017. Sampling was carried out each months in sites covering an area of about 100 m² including runs, riffles and pools at a water depth of 10–60 cm. The obtained LWRs and LLRs showed a high level of correlation (r² > 0.99).
