Characteristics of fungal community structure during the decomposition of mixed foliage litter from Pinus massoniana and broadleaved tree species in southwestern China

针叶树凋落物相当顽强且养分含量低,而阔叶凋落物通过增加可降解养分和促进微生物代谢来促进针叶凋落物的分解。马尾松(Pinus massoniana)凋落物和三个阔叶凋落物混合可能会增加真菌分解者的多样性和丰富性,并且会随着阔叶树种的数量和比例而有所差异。我们使用高通量测序技术分析了西南地区马尾松与香椿(Toona sinensis),香樟(Cinnamomum camphora)和檫木(Sassafras tzumu)凋落叶混合分解过程中的真菌群落组成和多样性,共设置35种实验处理。研究结果表明,与单一凋落叶相比,除马尾松+香椿,马尾松+檫木+香椿和马尾松+檫木+香樟组合中马尾松凋落叶占70%-80%以及马尾松+檫木+香樟+香椿组合中香椿凋落叶所占比例较小外,其余混合凋落叶均增加了真菌的多样性和丰富性。其中马尾松+香樟+香椿组合中的7:1:2的真菌多样性和丰富性显著高于其他处理。子囊菌门和担子菌门是最主要的优势门,曲霉属是最丰富的真菌群落属。一针一阔(6:4)和一针两阔(阔叶凋落叶占30%-40%)组合的凋落叶在整个分解过程中均表现出较强的协同作用,并且增加了可分解较难分解物质真菌菌群的相对丰度。可见马尾松+香樟+香椿组合中阔叶凋落物占30%-40%比例时增加了真菌的多样性,促进了针叶凋落物中难分解物质的分解。因此,香椿和香樟可能是构建马尾松混交林潜在的候选阔叶伴生树种。     

马尾松与阔叶树种混合凋落叶分解过程中总酚和缩合单宁的变化

采用凋落物分解袋法,研究四川低山丘陵区马尾松与檫木、香椿、香樟3种阔叶树种的混合凋落叶及纯马尾松凋落叶分解过程中总酚和缩合单宁的变化特征.设置马尾松:檫木质量比为6:4、7:3、8:2,马尾松:香椿质量比为6:4、7:3、8:2,马尾松:香樟质量比为6:4、7:3、8:2混合处理.结果表明:经过180 d的分解,纯马尾松凋落叶缩合单宁的降解率为84.4%,混合凋落叶缩合单宁的降解率均高于纯马尾松凋落叶.在所有组合中,马尾松:香樟6:4混合凋落叶的缩合单宁和总酚降解率最高,分别为90.3%和68.6%,凋落叶的混合促进了马尾松凋落叶缩合单宁和总酚的分解.随着分解时间的延长,马尾松与3种阔叶凋落叶所有混合处理缩合单宁的降解率均呈现先上升后趋于稳定的趋势.而纯马尾松凋落叶、马尾松:香樟(7:3)和马尾松与香椿的所有混合处理总酚的降解率呈现在分解前90 d上升此后下降的趋势;马尾松与檫木的所有混合处理及马尾松:香樟6:4和8:2混合处理总酚降解率呈现上升趋势.混合凋落叶分解过程中,单宁和总酚的变化特征还与凋落物基质质量、凋落物分解相关酶(多酚氧化酶、过氧化物酶、亮氨酸氨基肽)的活性有关.     

马尾松与乡土阔叶树种凋落叶木质素降解的混合效应

为了解森林凋落叶分解过程中木质素的释放规律,对马尾松(Pinus massoniana,P)、檫木(Sassafras tzumu,S)、香樟(Cinnamomum camphora,C)和香椿(Toona sinensis,T)凋落叶分解过程中的木质素降解率进行了研究.结果表明,大部分混合凋落叶的木质素在分解过程中出...     

原始阔叶红松林下红松、蒙古栎混合凋落叶分解特征及相互作用研究

采用凋落物网袋（litter bag）分解法,模拟红松（Pinus koraiensis）(以下用P表示)和蒙古栎（Quercus mongolica）（以下用M表示）在不同演替阶段可能的组成比例(P、M/P1∶3、M/P1∶1、M/P3∶1、M）进行野外分解实验。分析不同比例的两种凋落叶混合的分解特征、相互作用及机理。结果表明：1.从质量损失率来看,与单种凋落叶分解情况相比,蒙古栎和红松凋落叶混合对凋落物分解具有促进作用,其中蒙古栎和红松（M/P）按1∶3混合分解最快,且随着蒙古栎凋落叶在混合比例中的增加,混合分解速率先减小后增大。2.从C、N元素动态看,C素在各处理的凋落叶主要表现为净释放,而N素在各处理中变现比较复杂,在各处理的红松凋落叶中表现为富集,而在各处理蒙古栎凋落叶中则表现为释放。蒙古栎凋落叶可以促进红松凋落叶C元素释放和N元素的富集,降低红松凋落叶的C/N比,促进红松凋落叶的分解。红松凋落叶能促进蒙古栎凋落物C元素释放,但对蒙古栎凋落叶N元素的释放作用不明显,对蒙古栎凋落叶的C/N比影响也并不一致。     

黄土丘陵区人工林刺槐和油松凋落叶在不同降雨时期的分解特征

凋落物分解是维持生态系统养分循环和能量流动的关键过程,但在雨热同期的黄土丘陵区,不同降雨时期凋落物基质质量动态对该区不同树种凋落物分解速率的影响还不清楚。采用凋落物分解袋法,基于野外原位分解实验分析黄土丘陵区主要人工林刺槐（Robinia pseudoacacia Linn.）和油松（Pinus tabulaeformis Carr.）凋落叶在不同降雨时期的分解特征和分解过程中凋落叶基质质量的变化与分解速率之间的关系。研究结果发现：（1）经过391 d的分解,刺槐凋落叶的平均质量损失速率为（51.0±8.44）mg/d,显著地高于油松凋落叶（36.7±4.83）mg/d;雨季期间两树种凋落叶的质量损失速率均显著地高于旱季,其中夏季多雨期间凋落叶的质量损失速率最高,冬季微量降雨期间质量损失速率最低。（2）在整个分解过程中两树种凋落叶C和N含量都表现为净释放且主要发生在雨季,P含量表现为释放与富集交替进行;刺槐凋落叶C/N比、C/P比和N/P比呈波动的趋势,油松凋落叶C/N比则显著地增加且在夏季多雨期出现峰值,C/P比呈波动的状态,N/P比变化较小。（3）不同降雨时期刺槐凋落叶的质量损失速率与凋落叶P含量动态显著正相关,与C含量、C/P比和N/P比动态显著负相关。油松凋落叶质量损失速率与C/N比动态显著正相关,与C、N含量动态显著负相关,与N/P比动态呈负二次函数的关系。这些结果说明黄土丘陵区刺槐和油松凋落叶在不同降雨时期分解速率之间的差异显著且两树种凋落叶的分解都集中在雨季期间;此外凋落叶分解主要受到凋落叶N含量和N/P比动态变化的制约,与刺槐凋落叶相比,N含量与N/P比对油松凋落叶的限制作用更强。     

中亚热带主要树种凋落叶在杉木人工林中分解及氮磷释放过程

采用分解网袋法研究了马尾松(Pinus massoniana)、桤木(Alnus cremastogyne)、木荷(Schima superba)、青冈(Cycloblanopsis glauca)等树种凋落叶在21年生杉木人工林内的分解速率和养分释放过程。经过13个月的分解实验,4种供试凋落叶以青冈分解最快,质量失重率为33.5%,其次为桤木和木荷,马尾松分解最慢,其质量失重率仅为29.9%。4种凋落叶分解50%和95%所需要的时间分别为21～26个月和94～112个月。在凋落叶分解过程中,除桤木凋落叶中氮含量下降外,其他3种凋落叶的氮含量均增加,但凋落叶的C/N均降低;在凋落叶分解的前3个月,凋落物中磷含量快速下降,此后变化很小,C/P呈增加趋势。在凋落叶分解过程中,马尾松凋落叶对氮素表现为固持作用,而其他3种凋落叶对氮素表现为净释放,4种凋落叶的磷素均表现为净释放。4种供试材料中桤木较适合与杉木混交种植。     

不同季节亚热带常绿阔叶林6个树种凋落叶钙、镁、锰的释放特征

采用凋落物分解袋法,研究了亚热带常绿阔叶林区马尾松、柳杉、杉木、香樟、红椿、麻栎6个典型树种凋落叶的Ca、Mg、Mn在第一个分解年不同雨热季节的释放特征.结果表明：经历1年的分解,6种凋落叶Ca、Mg、Mn释放率分别为-13.8%～92.3%、4.0%～64.8%和41.6%～81.1%.马尾松和香樟凋落叶Ca释放动态呈现富集-释放模式,其余4种凋落叶整体上呈现释放的模式;香樟凋落叶Mg释放动态呈现富集-释放模式,其余5种凋落叶呈现直接释放模式;柳杉和红椿凋落叶Mn释放动态呈现富集-释放模式,其余4种凋落叶呈现直接释放模式.凋落叶Ca、Mg、Mn的释放明显受到季节性降雨的影响,且因凋落叶种类不同而有差异.Ca、Mg、Mn在雨季的释放率和释放量均高于旱季.初始养分含量和降雨量是影响凋落物分解过程元素释放的重要因子.     

马尾松人工林林窗大小对四种凋落叶质量损失和养分释放的影响

马尾松人工林乔木层植物凋落物的分解对林地养分平衡和系统物质循环具有重要意义,并可能受不同大小林窗下微环境差异的影响。采用凋落物袋分解法,以马尾松(Pinus massoniana)人工林人为砍伐形成的7个不同大小林窗(G1:100 m~2、G2:225 m~2、G3:400 m~2、C4:625 m~2、G5:900 m~2、G6:1225m~2、G7:1600 m~2)为研究对象,林下(G0)为对照,研究林窗大小对红椿(Toona ciliata)、桢楠(Phoebe zhennan)、香樟(Cinnamomum camphora)和马尾松4种乡土树种凋落叶质量损失及养分释放的影响。结果显示:1)林窗大小(G0-G7)显著影响林窗中心放置的红椿和桢楠凋落叶N和P释放率、香樟凋落叶失重率和N、P、K释放率以及马尾松凋落叶P和K释放率。相对于林下,中小型林窗(G1-G4)的凋落叶失重率和N、P释放率明显较大,而大型林窗(G6-G7)的凋落叶K释放率明显较大。2)林窗内放置位置显著影响红椿、桢楠和马尾松凋落叶的K释放率及香樟凋落叶的P释放率。红椿和桢楠的凋落叶K释放率从林窗中心到边缘显著减少,而马尾松凋落叶K释放率及香樟P释放率从林窗中心到边缘显著增加。3)4种凋落叶类型中红椿凋落叶分解最快,其分解50%和95%所需时间分别为5.29和23.14个月。上述结果表明,林窗大小和林窗内位置对凋落物质量损失及其养分释放具有显著影响,但影响大小及趋势随物种初始基质质量的差异具有明显变化,研究结果为亚热带低山丘陵区马尾松人工低效林的科学经营及管理提高了一定的科学依据。     

毛竹凋落叶组成对叶凋落物分解的影响

毛竹混交林具有较高的生产力和较好的生态功能,可能与混合凋落物的养分归还特征有关。本研究采用凋落物分解袋法对不同混合比例毛竹凋落叶分解特征进行了为期1年的研究,共设置5个处理,分别为Ⅰ(毛竹纯叶)、Ⅱ(毛竹、楠木叶比例为8:2);Ⅲ(毛竹、杉木叶比例8:2)、Ⅳ(毛竹、楠木叶比例5:5)和Ⅴ(毛竹、杉木叶比例5:5)。结果表明,不同处理凋落物分解速率符合Olson指数分解模型,R2均高于0.92。5个处理分解系数的排列顺序为Ⅱ>Ⅰ>Ⅲ>Ⅴ>Ⅳ,分别为0.68、0.66、0.58、0.55和0.49。处理Ⅰ和Ⅱ的分解速度显著高于其他处理,说明并非所有类型毛竹混合凋落叶均会促进凋落物分解,只有合适的比例和树种会促进凋落物分解。其中,竹阔混合凋落叶的分解速度高于竹针混合凋落叶的分解速度,竹阔混交可能更有利于竹林持续生产力的维持。N、P、K3种元素养分释放模式不同,N元素表现为净富集与净释放交替出现;P元素在经过4个月的快速富集后,4—5个月有短暂的净释放过程,其后呈富集状态;K元素浓度先升高后降低,在放置的前3个月净释放,随后呈富集状态。竹林凋落叶的养分含量对凋落物养分归还有重要影响,尤其是C/N和P可能作为竹林凋落...     

华北落叶松与阔叶树种混合凋落叶分解过程中养分释放和酶活性变化

森林凋落物是森林土壤的重要组成部分,凋落物分解在调控森林生态系统养分循环中发挥了关键作用。采用凋落物分解袋法,研究河北塞罕坝地区华北落叶松与白桦,华北落叶松与蒙古栎,华北落叶松、白桦和蒙古栎混合凋落叶及纯华北落叶松凋落叶分解过程中分解速率、养分释放和酶活性的变化。结果表明: 经过近2年的分解,混合凋落叶分解速率均显著高于纯华北落叶松凋落物叶;在所有处理中,华北落叶松与白桦混合凋落叶分解速率最高。在凋落叶分解过程中,不同处理养分含量变化一致,凋落叶N、P含量呈上升趋势,C、K含量和C/N呈下降趋势;相对纯华北落叶松凋落叶,各混合凋落叶分解可以促进凋落叶C、K的释放,但对N、P的释放有一定的抑制作用。在凋落叶分解过程中,不同处理凋落叶过氧化氢酶、脲酶、酸性磷酸酶活性呈上升趋势,蔗糖酶活性呈下降趋势;凋落叶分解速率与凋落叶过氧化氢酶、脲酶、酸性磷酸酶活性呈正相关,与蔗糖酶活性呈负相关。总体来看,华北落叶松和白桦、蒙古栎凋落叶混合可以促进华北落叶松凋落叶的分解,且凋落叶中酶活性动态变化与凋落叶的分解密切相关。     

重庆酸雨区马尾松香樟混交林的土壤化学性质和林木生长特征

为给遭受酸化危害的重庆马尾松(Pinus massoniana)纯林的恢复与管理提供科学依据,在属于酸雨区的重庆市江北区铁山坪林场,调查了马尾松香樟(Cinnamomum camphora)混交林的土壤化学性质和林木生长状况,并与毗邻的马尾松纯林和香樟纯林进行了比较。结果表明,与马尾松纯林相比,混交林腐殖质层和土壤酸度降低,交换性盐基离子Ca2+和Mg2+含量增加,酸性阳离子Al3+和H+含量明显减少(p0.05)。混交林马尾松树冠下腐殖质层和0–60cm土层马尾松细根的干重、长度、表面积、体积和根尖数的总密度都显著低于马尾松纯林(p0.05),比值分别为0.44、0.71、0.59、0.46和0.71,马尾松树高显著低于马尾松纯林(p0.05),其针叶变色率为15%,显著高于马尾松纯林(p0.05),香樟的生长特征与香樟纯林相似。结果说明,尽管混交林的土壤化学性质优于马尾松纯林,但林中马尾松的生长状况表现出了明显的恶化迹象,而香樟依然比较健康,这可能与香樟具有明显的竞争优势有关。因此,在利用香樟营造与马尾松的混交林来改善遭受酸化危害的马尾松纯林的生长状况时,应注意调控香樟的竞争优势。     

中亚热带森林群落不同演替阶段优势种凋落物分解试验

选择我国亚热带森林群落3个主要演替阶段的7个优势种（其中马尾松代表演替初期优势种,木荷和香樟代表演替中期优势种,甜槠、小叶青冈栎、青冈和乐昌含笑代表演替后期优势种）的凋落物,采用网袋法进行分解试验. 结果表明:马尾松凋落物分解得最慢,年分解速率为0.51;木荷和香樟居中,分别为0.55和0.61;小叶青冈栎和乐昌含笑分解得最快,分别为0.89和1.12.沿着植被顺向演替的梯度,凋落物分解速度呈现加快的趋势. 分解速率同凋落物的初始P、N和木质素含量及木质素/N比值呈极显著相关(P<0.01),同C/N比值有显著相关关系(P<0.05).凋落物的P、N和木质素含量及木质素/N比值是预测凋落物分解快慢的良好指标.     

杉木与主要阔叶造林树种叶凋落物的混合分解

杉木（Ｃｕｎｎｉｎｇｈａｍｉａ ｌａｎｃｅｏｌａｔａ）与主要阔叶造林树种叶凋落物混合分解实验是用网袋法进行的。目的是检验“杉木叶凋落物与阔叶凋落物混合分解时,杉木叶凋落物的分解速率和养分释放都可得到加强”这样一个假设。结果发现,杉木与火力楠（Ｍｉｃｈｅｌｉａ ｍａｃｃｌｕｒｅｉ ｖａｒ．ｓｕｂａｌａｎｅａ）、桤木（Ａｌｎｕｓ ｃｒｅｍａｓｔｏｇｙｎｅ）叶凋落物混合分解时分解速率有较强的促进作用,而     

Mixing Effects of Understory Plant Litter on Decomposition and Nutrient Release of Tree Litter in Two Plantations in Northeast China

Understory vegetation plays a crucial role in carbon and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems; however, it is not clear how understory species affect tree litter decomposition and nutrient dynamics. In this study, we examined the impacts of understory litter on the decomposition and nutrient release of tree litter both in a pine (Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica) and a poplar (Populus × xiaozhuanica) plantation in Northeast China. Leaf litter of tree species, and senesced aboveground materials from two dominant understory species, Artemisia scoparia and Setaria viridis in the pine stand and Elymus villifer and A. sieversiana in the poplar stand, were collected. Mass loss and N and P fluxes of single-species litter and three-species mixtures in each of the two forests were quantified. Data from single-species litterbags were used to generate predicted mass loss and N and P fluxes for the mixed-species litterbags. In the mixture from the pine stand, the observed mass loss and N release did not differ from the predicted value, whereas the observed P release was greater than the predicted value. However, the presence of understory litter decelerated the mass loss and did not affect N and P releases from the pine litter. In the poplar stand, litter mixture presented a positive non-additive effect on litter mass loss and P release, but an addition effect on N release. The presence of understory species accelerated only N release of poplar litter. Moreover, the responses of mass loss and N and P releases of understory litter in the mixtures varied with species in both pine and poplar plantations. Our results suggest that the effects of understory species on tree litter decomposition vary with tree species, and also highlight the importance of understory species in litter decomposition and nutrient cycles in forest ecosystems.     

黄土高原樟子松和落叶松与其他树种枯落叶混合分解对土壤的影响

通过采集树木枯落叶与土壤进行室内混合分解培养试验,研究了黄土高原常见的樟子松和落叶松与其他树种枯落叶混合分解对土壤性质的影响及存在的相互作用,从而为不同树木种间关系的探索和该地区人工纯林的混交改造提供科学指导。结果表明:12种枯落叶单一分解均明显提高了土壤脲酶(54%—110%)、脱氢酶(85%—288%)和磷酸酶(81%—301%)活性以及有机质(29%—55%)和碱解N(12%—49%)含量,但对土壤速效P含量和CEC的影响存在较大差异。综合而言,樟子松分别与白桦、刺槐、白榆、柠条和落叶松枯落叶混合分解在对土壤性质的影响中存在相互促进作用,而分别与小叶杨、沙棘、紫穗槐、侧柏和辽东栎枯落叶混合分解在对土壤性质的影响中存在相互抑制作用;落叶松分别与刺槐、白桦、小叶杨和紫穗槐枯落叶混合分解在对土壤性质的影响中存在相互促进作用,而分别与柠条、侧柏、辽东栎、沙棘、油松和白榆枯落叶混合分解在对土壤性质的影响中存在相互抑制作用。     

Review of mixed forest litter decomposition researches

The litter plays an important role in forest ecosystems. Decomposition of mixed leaf litters has recently become an active research area because it mimics the natural state of leaf litters in most of forests. Many studies reported effects of mixing litters on their decomposition, ranging from positive, negative to neutral. In this paper decomposition mechanisms of mixed litters concluded by researchers were summarized. Firstly, plant litter quality had been recognized as an important factor to affect decomposition rate. Some studies showed a positive significant correlation between initial N, P concentration and non-additive effect in litter mixture decomposition. Secondly, it has been suggested that litter mixture could increase abundance and diversity of fauna and microbial decomposers, especially fungi. Thirdly, compared with single litter decomposition, the nutrient exchange between different litter species is often considered as one of main non-additive effects observed in litter mixture. Some results showed that the active transport of nutrients by fungal hyphae derived positive effect on the decomposition of litter mixture. The multiple factors such as, leaf litter species, investigation method and plot, were also analyzed. In conclusion, it is necessary to enhance a further research on factors in mixed litter decomposition and an interaction between various factors due to the complex relationship. We are looking forward to using these theories of mixed litter decomposition to direct practical forest management.
