濒危植物银杉幼树对生长光强的季节性光合响应

银杉(Cathayaargyrophylla)是我国松科中特有的单种属植物,被认为处于濒危状态。在对银杉群落多年调查研究的基础上,针对银杉幼树生长过程对光强的需求特性,我们开展了银杉幼树对光的适应性研究。试验在人工培育的银杉苗圃地,采用遮荫的方法设置不同的光环境处理(100%、45%和3%自然光强),利用气体交换技术和叶绿素荧光技术测定了3种光强下银杉叶片光合生理指标的变化,探讨了不同光环境下银杉幼树光合能力在夏季和冬季的变化及其对生长光强的响应等。结果表明:在夏季银杉生长旺盛时期,遮荫导致叶片最大光合速率(Pnmax)、羧化效率(CE)下降,但不同叶龄叶片的下降幅度不同。随生长光强的下降,银杉幼树的光补偿点(LCP)和光饱和点(LSP)有所降低,但全晴天时,低光强(3%自然光强)条件下实际的光辐射量高于当年生叶片光补偿点的累积时间约6h,而且与光饱和的区域相差极大,造成全天碳同化量低,同化物累积少,严重影响了银杉幼树的正常生长。在不同处理中全光强条件下银杉幼树长势最好,45%光强条件下幼树生长减慢。冬季银杉最大光合速率(Pnmax)、羧化效率(CE)值均低于夏季,光补偿点(LCP)和光饱和点(LSP)也较夏季降低。全光照条件下无论是当年生叶片和一年生叶片,在冬季均出现了轻微光抑制现象,适度遮荫有利于银杉抵御冬季光抑制。无论在遮荫或不遮荫条件下,冬季银杉叶片将所吸收的相对过剩光能通过非辐射途径耗散出去,表现出一种光保护策略。     

闽楠幼树光合特性及生物量分配对光环境的响应

设置100%光环境(L100)、40%光环境(L40)、8%光环境(L8)3种光照梯度,分析万木林闽楠(Phoebe bournei)幼树的光合特性及生物量分配特征对不同光环境的响应。结果表明:(1)闽楠幼树在不同光环境下的最大净光合速率(Pnmax),表观量子效率(AQY),光饱和点(LSP),光补偿点(LCP),暗呼吸速率(Rd)均有显著差异(P<0.05),且随着光照强度的降低,Pnmax,LSP,LCP,Rd随之降低,而AQY却呈现升高的趋势。(2)总生物量、茎生物量、叶生物量、根生物量均表现为L100最大,根冠比、叶生物量比、茎生物量比及根生物量比在3种光环境下无显著差异。(3)闽楠幼树通过改变光合特性,生物量积累来适应光环境的变化,其中光照强度的降低限制了生物量的积累,但并未显著改变生物量地上地下分配比例。闽楠幼树在3种光环境下生物量分配比例并无显著的改变,生物量分配可塑性极低可能是闽楠零散分布的一个重要非人为干扰因素。(4)闽楠幼树所采取的生存策略以地上部分生长为主,光照强度降低时则采取保守策略进行缓慢的资源获取和消耗,全光照条件下采取快速的资源获取和消耗策略。未来造林时可以将闽楠与毛竹(Phyllostachys pubescens)混交来减少郁闭度,促进闽楠幼树的生长。

Rapid light curves: A new fluorescence method to assess the state of the photosynthetic apparatus

Photosynthetic electron transport rates (ETR), calculated from chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, were compared in long term light and dark adapted as well as photoinhibited Pisum sativum leaves using a novel chlorophyll fluorescence method and a new instrument: rapid light curves (RLC) generated with the MINI-PAM. RLCs are plots of ETRs versus actinic irradiances applied for 10 s. Large changes in maximum electron transport rates (ETR_max) were observed when leaves were shifted from dark to moderate light, or from dark to photoinhibitory light and vice versa. Maximum ETRs were very low following long term dark adaptation, but increased to maximum levels within 8 to 15 minutes of illumination. It took more than 3 hours, however, to return irradiance-exposed leaves to the fully dark adapted state. Quenching analysis of RLCs revealed large q_E development in long-term dark adapted leaves accounting for the low ETRs. Leaves photoinhibited for 3 hours had similarly reduced ETRs. In these leaves, however, q_I was largely responsible for this reduction. Actinic irradiance exposures and saturating flashes affected leaves with different irradiance histories differently.     

Light-dependent modification of Photosystem II in spinach leaves

In dark-adapted spinach leaves approximately one third of the Photosystem II (PS II) reaction centers are impaired in their ability to transfer electrons to Photosystem I. Although these inactive PS II centers are capable of reducing the primary quinone acceptor, Q_A, oxidation of Q_A ^– occurs approximately 1000 times more slowly than at active centers. Previous studies based on dark-adapted leaves show that minimal energy transfer occurs from inactive centers to active centers, indicating that the quantum yield of photosynthesis could be significantly impaired by the presence of inactive centers. The objective of the work described here was to determine the performance of inactive PS II centers in light-adapted leaves. Measurements of PS II activity within leaves did not indicate any increase in the concentration of active PS II centers during light treatments between 10 s and 5 min, showing that inactive centers are not converted to active centers during light treatment. Light-induced modification of inactive PS II centers did occur, however, such that 75% of these centers were unable to sustain stable charge separation. In addition, the maximum yield of chlorophyll fluorescence associated with inactive PS II centers decreased substantially, despite the lack of any overall quenching of the maximum fluorescence yield. The effect of light treatment on inactive centers was reversed in the dark within 10–20 mins. These results indicate that illumination changes inactive PS II centers into a form that quenches fluorescence, but does not allow stable charge separation across the photosynthetic membrane. One possibility is that inactive centers are converted into centers that quench fluorescence by formation of a radical, such as reduced pheophytin or oxidized P680. Alternatively, it is possible that inactive PS II centers are modified such that absorbed excitation energy is dissipated thermally, through electron cycling at the reaction center.Abbreviations A518 absorbance change at 518 nm, reflecting the formation of an electric field across the thylakoid membrane - A_FL1 amplitude of the fast (<100 ms) phase of A518 induced by the first of two saturating, single-turnover flashes spaced 30 ms apart - A_FL2 amplitude of the fast (<100 ms) phase of A518 induced by the second of two saturating, single-turnover flashes spaced 50 ms apart - DCBQ 2,6-dichloro-p-benzoquinone - Fo yield of chlorophyll fluorescence when Q_A is fully oxidized - Fm yield of chlorophyll fluorescence when Q_A is fully reduced - Fx yield of chlorophyll fluorescence when Q_A is fully reduced at inactive PS II centers, but fully oxidized at active PS II centers - Pheo pheophytin - P680 the primary donor of Photosystem II - PPFD photosynthetic photon flux density - Q_A Primary quinone acceptor of PS II - Q_B secondary quinone acceptor of PS II     

披针叶茴香叶绿素荧光参数对不同光环境的响应

以天目山披针叶茴香(Illicium lanceolatum)4年生栽培幼苗为对象,经不同光环境(自然全光照,50%光照和20%光照)处理后,采用雅欣理1611植物效率仪测试,并进行光系统Ⅱ(PSⅡ)快速叶绿素荧光诱导动力学分析(JIP-test),以探讨其光适应机制,为高莽草酸含量植株高效栽培技术提供理论依据。结果显示:(1)随着遮光程度增加,披针叶茴香叶片叶绿素a(Chl a)、叶绿素b(Chl b)和总叶绿素含量(Chl(a+b))呈上升趋势,均与全光照存在显著差异;Chl a/Chl b值分别降低了22.92%和31.56%,均与全光照差异极显著。(2)随遮光程度增强,PSⅡ最大光能转换效率(Fv/Fm)降低,50%和20%光照处理的Fv/Fm值分别比全光照下降了1.34%和2.79%,且20%光照处理与全光照差异显著。(3)随遮光程度增强,50%光照和20%光照处理叶片单位面积光合机构含有的反应中心数目(RC/CSo)分别比全光照减少了2.94%和13.63%,单位反应中心以热能形式耗散的能量(DIo/RC)分别增加了2.2%和62.9%。研究表明,50%光照处理下披针叶茴香叶片用于光合电子传递的能量占吸收光能的比例变化不显著,而在20%光照处理则显著降低,即50%遮光环境有利于披针叶茴香提高光能利用效率,促进其生长和增加生物量积累。     

白首乌光合日变化的研究

白首乌叶片光合日变化曲线呈明显双峰型,峰值分别出现在上午9：00～10：00时和下午3：00时左右。在高光强下中午有明显“午休”现象。叶绿素荧光参数Fv／Fm和φPSⅡ在晴天中午明显降低,说明田问白首乌叶片在晴天中午经常发生光抑制,高光强和高温是发生光抑制的主要原因。     

Comparison of light induced and cell cycle dependent changes in the photosynthetic apparatus: A fluorescence induction study on the green alga Scenedesmus obliquus

Changes in the photosynthetic apparatus occurring during the synchronous cell cycle of the green alga Scenedesmus obliquus are compared to the adaptational response induced by light intensity variations. To investigate and compare these two phenomena, we analyze the polyphasic rise of the chlorophyll fluorescence yield exhibited by plants and cyanobacteria when exposed to high intensity actinic light. Four fluorescence parameters are calculated which are closely related to Photosystem II (PS II) structure and function: ABS/RC, the antenna size of PS II; _PO, the quantum yield for reduction of the primary PS II quinone acceptor; q_PQ, related to the size of the plastoquinone pool; q_Emax, the capacity for pH dependent non-photochemical quenching. The capacity for non-photochemical quenching changes in response to light intensity variations, but it is not affected by the developmental changes occurring during the cell cycle. In contras t, for ABS/RC, _PO and q_PQ, we observe light induced as well as cell cycle dependent variations. We discuss the relations of the four fluorescence parameters to the molecular organization of the photosynthetic apparatus and its cell cycle and light dependent changes.

A comparative analysis of wild and laboratory grown Laminaria abyssalis (Phaeophyta) using modulated fluorescence

Laminaria abyssalis fronds were either collected at the Brazilian costal area - 40 meters below sea level - or grown in the laboratory. The photochemical yield as defined by the Fv/Fm and the Fo - the dark fluorescence level when all PSII centers are open - varied with the distance from the stipe to the tip of the blade in wild grown fronds while it stayed constant in the laboratory grown plants. The chlorophyll a/c ratio levels decreased in the wild fronds from 12 (near the stipe) to 6 near the top. The chlorophyll c content increased from 0.8 to near 1.7 mg cm^–2 in the wild fronds. The laboratory fronds did not show variations in their chlorophyll contents. The wild fronds pattern changed after 2 months kept in the laboratory, producing similar results to those grown in the laboratory. The results indicate that the levels of the antenna complex in the wild fronds increase from the stipe to the top of the blade, in a fashion similar of the sun/shade leaves. Also, results show, that this alga is able to adapt itself to new light conditions, possibly increasing its level of antenna complex and photosynthetic units.Abbreviations PSII Photosystem II - Fo Chlorophyll fluorescence when all PSII are opened - Fm Chlorophyll Fluorescence when all PSII are closed - Fv Variable Fluorescence (Fm-Fo) - Fv/Fm Quantum Yield for Photochemistry     

福建罗卜岩闽楠(Phoebe bournei)林中优势树种生态位研究

在福建省三明市罗卜岩自然保护区内选择由落叶阔叶树种为主的常绿落叶阔叶混交林向中亚热带典型常绿阔叶林演替过程中的4个不同演替阶段的代表性群落,以群落组成类型作为一维资源位,以树种的重要值作为资源位上的表现特征,定量分析了闽楠林中优势树种生态位宽度和生态位重叠情况。结果表明,大部分的常绿阔叶树种具有较大的生态位宽度值,而落叶阔叶树种则呈现较小的生态位宽度值;两类树种的;生态位虽有一定程度的重叠,但总体仍然较低。这些结果与两类树种对光等生态因子要求不同直接相关。生态位宽度值较大的常绿阔叶树种之间可产生较高的生态位重叠值。生态位宽度值较大的树种与生态位宽度较小的树种也可产生较大的生态位重叠值,但较小生态位宽度值的树种与较大生态位宽度值的树种往往只有小的生态位重叠值,而较小生态位宽度值的树种之间则可有国产高的生态位重叠值。上述的生态位研究结果有助于理解由落叶阔叶树种为主的常绿落叶阔叶林向中亚热带典型常绿阔叶林演替过程中优势各群的生态适应性变化规律。     

Stimulation of the diadinoxanthin cycle by UV-B radiation in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

In this study we show that the diadinoxanthin cycle in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum is stimulated by mild UV-B radiation. High steady state concentrations of diatoxanthin established during a period of strong actinic illumination with white light (300 mol photons m-2 s-1 PAR) are further increased if weak UV-B (3 mol photons m-2 s-1) is additionally applied. Short term increases in the diatoxanthin concentration caused by UV-B strongly correlate with a stoichiometric decrease in diadinoxanthin. The UV-B dependent increase in diatoxanthin is correlated with a concommitant enhancement of non-photochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence and a decrease in the quantum efficiency of oxygen evolution. This indicates that UV-B induced diatoxanthin functions in thermal energy dissipation. Possible scenarios for a stimulation of the diadinoxanthin cycle by UV-B are discussed.     

Genetic analysis of tolerance to photo-oxidative stress induced by high light in winter wheat （Triticum aestivum L.）

High light induced photooxidation (HLIP) usually leads to leaf premature senescence and causes great yield loss in winter wheat. In order to explore the genetic control of wheat tolerance to HLIP stress, a quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis was conducted on a set of doubled haploid population, derived from two winter wheat cultivars. Actual values of chlorophyll content (Chl), minimum fluorescence level (Fo), maximum fluorescence level (Fm), and the maximum quantum efficiency of photosystem Ⅱ (Fv/Fm) under both HLIP and non-stress conditions as well as the ratios of HLIP to non-stress were evaluated. HLIP considerably reduced Chl, Fm, and Fv/Fm, but increased Fo, compared with that under non-stress condition. A total of 27, 16, and 28 QTLs were associated with the investigated traits under HLIP and non-stress and the ratios of HLIP to non-stress, respectively. Most of the QTLs for the ratios of HLIP to non-stress collocated or nearly linked with those detected under HLIP condition. HLIP-induced QTLs were mapped on 15 chromosomes, involving in 1A, 1B, 1D,2A, 2B, 2D, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4D, 5B, 6A, 6B, 7A, and 7D while those expressed under non-stress condition involved in nine chromosomes, including 1B, 1D, 2A, 2B, 3B, 4A, 5A, 5B, and 7A. The expression patterns of QTLs under HLIP condition were different from that under non-stress condition except for six loci on five chromosomes. The phenotypic variance explained by individual QTL ranged from 5.0% to 19.7% under HLIP, 8.3% to 20.8% under non-stress, and 4.9% to 20.2% for the ratios of HLIP to non-stress, respectively. Some markers, for example,Xgwm192 and WMC331 on 4D regulating Chl, Fo, Fm, and Fv/Fm under HLIP condition, might be used in marker assistant selection.

不同比例红蓝光对番茄幼苗生长和光合作用的影响

为了探索番茄幼苗生长发育对红蓝组合光的响应机制,本试验采用发光二极管(LED)精量调制光源,以番茄品种‘SV0313TG’为试材,设红光(R)、蓝光(B)和红蓝组合光(9R1B、6R1B、3R1B、1R1B、1R3B)7个处理,以白光为对照,研究不同比例红蓝光质对番茄幼苗生长、光合色素含量、光合特性、叶绿素荧光参数及根系活力的影响.结果表明:不同比例红蓝光质处理对番茄幼苗生长的影响具有明显差异.红光显著促进幼苗株高增加,比叶面积增大,胞间CO₂浓度提高,但PSⅡ最大光化学效率(F_v/F_m)、PSⅡ实际光化学效率(Ф_PSⅡ)降低,根系生长受阻,根系活力下降,壮苗指数降低;蓝光下幼苗生长受到明显抑制,叶绿素含量降低,但叶绿素a/b 值升高;红蓝组合光有利于番茄幼苗的生长发育,3R1B处理下植株干物质量、叶绿素含量和光合性能均显著提高,幼苗生长健壮,壮苗指数最大.综上,红蓝组合光能够增加番茄幼苗叶片光合色素含量,提高光合效率,促进植株生长,尤以3R1B处理最佳.     

濒危植物闽楠幼苗更新及环境解释

为了更好地理解濒危植物闽楠幼苗天然更新与微环境的关系,以广西富川县蚌贝村闽楠天然林胸径5.0 cm以下的更新个体为研究对象。基于0.64 hm₂^{固定监测样地调查数据,采用Pearson相关系数、冗余分析等方法对幼苗更新密度与样地微环境因子关系进行分析。结果表明：(1)闽楠小幼苗更新个体数最多,随龄级增加更新密度呈下降趋势;幼苗向幼树转化率低,小幼苗向中幼苗转化率是闽楠更新成功的关键阶段;(2)闽楠幼苗更新密度与样地灌木层高度、最近母树距离、灌木层覆盖度极显著正相关,与样地光照、草本层覆盖度显著负相关; (3)灌木层高度、最近母树的距离、灌木层覆盖度、叶面积指数、光照、草本层覆盖度、凋落物厚度、土壤盐分是影响闽楠幼苗更新的主要微环境因子,光照和草本层覆盖度是闽楠幼苗更新的限制因子。因此,降低光照强度、减少草本层的覆盖度、增大灌木层的覆盖度等有利于闽楠种群更新发展。}
