长白山暗针叶林苔藓植物对三种针叶树种子萌发及幼苗生长的影响

研究了长白山暗针叶林两种主要地面苔藓植物——塔藓和拟垂枝藓对红松、红皮云杉和落叶松种子萌发及幼苗生长的影响.结果表明,在一定浓度下,塔藓浸提液抑制红松发芽,拟垂枝藓浸提液促进红松发芽;苔藓浸提液对红皮云杉和落叶松的发芽率没有显著影响,但不同程度地加快了种子日萌发高峰的出现.用苔藓植物体直接培养红皮云杉和落叶松种子,发现活植物体量大时对发芽率没有显著影响,但延迟了红皮云杉种子萌发高峰的出现,加速了落叶松种子萌发高峰的出现;杀青后的苔藓植物体则明显地抑制种子发芽.通过幼苗培养实验,发现苔藓植物浸提液抑制红皮云杉和红松幼苗生长,但促进了落叶松幼苗的生长;不同处理的苔藓植物体对幼苗生长的影响差异较大,活植物体量大时,两种苔藓均促进了红皮云杉和落叶松幼苗生长,而杀青后植物体则明显地抑制幼苗生长.

种子大小和幼苗更新对策是植物生活史策略的重要组成部分.本文从不同侧面综述了当前国内外关于种子大小和幼苗之间关系的生态学研究,包括:种子大小对萌发出土的影响,种子大小与幼苗形态生长特性之间的关系,种子大小与幼苗存活、竞争能力之间关系等,并对今后的相关研究进行了展望.在不同的微环境和植被类型下,种子大小与幼苗生长之间的关系可能有所差异;种子大小对植物幼苗生长的影响导致种子大小不同的植物对植被幼苗更新补充的贡献不同;种子大小与幼苗生活史策略关系在大尺度的群落空间水平上和小尺度的物种间与物种内的研究对于天然植被的更新恢复研究具有重要意义.     

种子感光的机理及影响种子感光性的因素

种子的萌发或休眠均取决于萌发时种子内所建立起来的Pfr含量和Pfr/(Pr Pfr)比值。种子内的Pfr水平受到诸多因素的影响。光中性种子在成熟时已存在适合萌发的Pfr水平;需光种子在不同程度地接受白光或红光照射后,方可达到适宜的Pfr水平;忌光种子萌发要求的Pfr水平较低,因此萌发需要较长时间的黑暗。种子的感光性不是绝对的,母株的生长条件、种子本身的成熟度、贮藏状况、光质、光流量、光周期、萌发温度、O2供应及某些化合物的处理等都可使种子的感光性发生改变。     

Seed Number, Seed Size and Seed Diversity in Washington Lupin (Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl.)

Over 20 000 seeds of the Washington lupin (Lupinus polyphyllusLindl.) were examined and measured in an experiment carriedout over a 10 year period (1989–1999). Four differentgroups of Washington lupin seeds were found: dark, patterned,grey and light seeds. During the 10 year experiment, the totalaverage number of seeds per plant decreased from 2654 (1990)to 1220 (1999), there was a slight decrease in seed weight perplant and an increase in the average weight per seed. Therewas a clear seed size/number trade-off at the intraspecificlevel. The relative proportions of each seed group also changedwith patterned seeds becoming dominant (50% at the beginningand 90% at the end of the experiment), grey seeds remained constant(constituting 10% of the total seeds) and the proportion ofboth dark (33% at the beginning and 5% at the end) and light(10% at the beginning and 5% at the end of the experiment) seedsdecreased. Six hundred and sixty nine seeds were found to havea different testa ornamentation; they were distributed amongthe different groups as follows: 48% patterned seeds, 29% darkseeds, 12% grey seeds and 11% light seeds. There were no significantdifferences in the physical dimensions of the ornamented seedscompared with all other seeds. The results suggest that theWashington lupin is a mixture of different species and botanicalforms; this is discussed in relation to possible selection pressuresto produce both smaller and larger seeds. The possibility thatchanges in testa ornamentation are influenced by genes controllingthe synthesis of the seed coat pigment is discussed.

Amaranthus hypochondriacus: Seed Structure and Localization of Seed Reserves

The mature seed of Amaranthus hypochondriacus L. consists ofa peripheric embryo surrounding the nutritive tissue which isthe perisperm. Endosperm remnants are close to the root tip.Cytochemical analysis revealed that the embryo and endospermcells had a quite homogenous internal organization, with proteinbodies embedded in a lipid matrix. The embryo, however, appearsvariable in tissue organisation, due to the differentiationof the three primary meristematic tissues: the procambium appearsas a single bundle in the embryonic axis or as small bundlesthroughout the cotyledons length, these provascular cells aresmall and elongated and with fewer reserves and more cellularorganelles than the large protoderm and ground meristem cells.These latter cells have more protein bodies, and they show ahigher number of larger globoid crystal inclusions than theothers. The perisperm is a starchy tissue, and its cells havethin walls and are full of angular starch grains.Copyright 1994,1999 Academic Press Amaranth, Amaranthus hypochondriacus, seed structure, seed reserves     

Seed Rain and Seed Bank Reveal that Seed Limitation Strongly Influences Plant Community Assembly in Grasslands

Dispersal is an important factor in plant community assembly, but assembly studies seldom include information on actual dispersal into communities, i.e. the local propagule pool. The aim of this study was to determine which factors influence plant community assembly by focusing on two phases of the assembly process: the dispersal phase and the establishment phase. At 12 study sites in grazed ex-arable fields in Sweden the local plant community was determined and in a 100-m radius around the centre of each site, the regional species pool was measured. The local seed bank and the seed rain was explored to estimate the local propagule pool. Trait-based models were then applied to investigate if species traits (height, seed mass, clonal abilities, specific leaf area and dispersal method) and regional abundance influenced which species from the regional species pool, dispersed to the local community (dispersal phase) and which established (establishment phase). Filtering of species during the dispersal phase indicates the effect of seed limitation while filtering during the establishment phase indicates microsite limitation. On average 36% of the regional species pool dispersed to the local sites and of those 78% did establish. Species with enhanced dispersal abilities, e.g. higher regional abundance, smaller seeds and dispersed by cattle, were more likely to disperse to the sites than other species. At half the sites, dispersal was influenced by species height. Species establishment was however mainly unlinked to the traits included in this study. This study underlines the importance of seed limitation in local plant community assembly. It also suggests that without information on species dispersal into a site, it is difficult to distinguish between the influence of dispersal and establishment abilities, and thus seed and microsite limitation, as both can be linked to the same trait.

Water and Seed Survival

Between about –350 and –14 MPa the rate of lossof viability in orthodox seeds is a positive function of waterpotential. The relative effect of water potential has been analysedin an oily seed (lettuce) and a non-oily seed (barley) and foundto be more or less identical. The lower limit for the relationin various species coincides with a seed moisture content (wetbasis) between about 2 and 6%. Below this level there is littleor no improvement in longevity with reduction in moisture content.The upper limit coincides with moisture contents of between15 and 28%, depending on whether the seeds are oily or non-oily.A water potential of about –14 MPa is the threshold forrespiration which increases more-or-less linearly with increasein water potential above this level. Above this threshold, andproviding oxygen is available to sustain respiration, seed longevityincreases with increase in water potential except that, unlessthe seeds are dormant, germination may be initiated at a waterpotential of about –1·5 to –0·5 MPa.In the absence of oxygen there may be a slight further declinein longevity with increase in water potential above –14MPa before longevity reaches a minimum value Since they cannot be dried very much without immediate lossof viability, recalcitrant seeds survive longest in the presenceof oxygen at maximum water potential commensurate with preventinggermination. The threshold water potential for immediate lossof viability has not been determined for most species but itis probable that it is close to the water potential typicalof the permanent wilting point in these plants, say –2MPa Lactuca saliva L., lettuce, Hordeum oulgare L., barley, seed storage, moisture content, relative humidity, water potential, temperature, oxygen
