养分再吸收是植物养分利用的重要策略,体现了植物对养分留存、利用和适应环境的能力。为研究亚热带不同生活型(常绿与落叶)阔叶树养分含量与养分再吸收的关系,以江西阳际峰国家级自然保护区内30种阔叶树为研究对象,测定成熟和衰老叶片氮(N)和磷(P)含量,分析常绿和落叶树种叶片N和P含量及其再吸收效率差异,揭示阔叶树种叶片养分再吸收效率对植物生活型的响应。结果表明: 落叶树种成熟叶片N和P含量显著高于常绿树种,衰老叶片P含量显著高于常绿树种,而两者衰老叶N含量差异不显著;30种阔叶林木叶片的氮再吸收效率(NRE)与磷再吸收效率(PRE)平均值分别为49.6%和50.9%,两种生活型树种间叶片的NRE与PRE无显著差异;落叶和常绿树种叶片的NRE均与衰老叶N含量呈显著负相关,PRE则与衰老叶P含量呈显著负相关,且这种关系在不同生活型之间差异不显著;总物种的PRE-NRE异速生长指数为1.18。江西阳际峰30种不同生活型阔叶树的养分再吸收效率会影响衰老叶片的养分状况,且相较于N,植物偏好从衰老叶中再吸收P。     

广西猫儿山不同海拔常绿树种和落叶树种光合速率与氮的关系

分析广西猫儿山不同海拔常绿和落叶树种的光合作用-氮关系,探讨光合氮利用效率(PNUE)是否受到叶片习性和海拔的影响。落叶树种的PNUE都显著高于常绿树种,这与前者有较低的比叶重(LMA)和较高的单位叶重光合速率(Amass)、氮含量和气孔导度(gs)有密切关系。高海拔树种的PNUE显著低于中低海拔树种的PNUE,这与前者较高的LMA和较低的Amass和gs相关。PNUE和相关的叶片特征的主成分分析表明常绿-落叶树种和低海拔-中海拔-高海拔树种的分布是一个自然过渡的过程。此外,PNUE与土壤碳:氮比没有显著相关性,但与年均温正相关,这表明温度气候是调节PNUE沿海拔变化的主要环境因素。因此,这种叶片习性和温度气候调节的PNUE变化可能是调节猫儿山常绿树种沿海拔形成双峰分布的一种机制。     

武夷山不同海拔阔叶树叶片养分含量及再吸收效率

为揭示亚热带山地阔叶树叶片养分利用策略随海拔梯度的变化规律，本研究选取武夷山不同海拔(1400、1600和1800 m)44种阔叶树，研究成熟与衰老叶片养分含量、化学计量比及养分再吸收效率，并分析其异速生长关系。结果表明：成熟叶片氮(N)、磷(P)含量显著高于衰老叶，且均随海拔升高而升高。磷再吸收效率(PRE)与氮再吸收效率(NRE)的平均值分别为48.3%和34.9%,PRE显著高于NRE,养分再吸收效率随海拔变化无显著差异。NRE与成熟叶N含量在低海拔处(1400 m)呈正等速生长，与衰老叶N含量在高海拔处(1800 m)呈负异速生长。PRE与衰老叶片N、P含量在低海拔(1400 m处)呈负等速生长，在高海拔处(1600、1800 m)呈负异速生长。各海拔PRE-NRE异速生长指数为0.95。随着海拔的升高，成熟和衰老叶片养分含量升高，但海拔不影响养分再吸收效率，且植物偏好从衰老叶中再吸收P,高海拔养分再吸收效率会影响衰老叶片的养分状况。     

祁连山青海云杉叶片氮、磷含量随海拔变化特征

于2005年9月在祁连山北坡沿海拔梯度测定了青海云杉(Picea crassifolia)叶片氮、磷含量.结果表明,青海云杉叶氮、磷平均含量分别为9.75和0.97 mg·g-1.在种间水平上,青海云杉叶片氮、磷含量明显低于全球松科其它针叶树种;在种内水平上,随着海拔的增加,青海云杉叶片氮含量表现出降低的趋势,叶片磷含量变化趋势不明显.叶片氮含量与年均气温呈显著正相关关系(r=0.616**),与土壤水分呈显著负相关关系(r=-0.640**),与土壤有机质、全氮均呈显著负相关关系(r=-0.591**,r=-0.564**);叶片磷含量与年均温、土壤水分之间的关系不显著;叶片氮、磷之间的比率为10.2.表明温度和水分对青海云杉叶片氮、磷含量的影响主要是通过影响土壤生物化学过程(如养分有效性、根系对养分的吸收等)来实现的,青海云杉生长更多的受到氮素限制.

木兰科植物是常用的园林绿化观赏树种, 研究其叶片碳(C)氮(N)磷(P)计量比和N、P养分重吸收特征, 对于理解和预测树木在人工林中生态功能的发挥至关重要。该研究以木兰科6个树种为研究对象, 于2019年7月和2019年11月至翌年1月分别采集成熟叶和新鲜凋落叶, 测定叶片中C、N、P含量及其计量比, 并分析了6个树种的N、P重吸收特征。结果表明: 成熟叶(凋落叶)C、N和P含量在各树种间存在差异, 其含量变化范围分别为444.73－498.03(389.25－589.33), 9.97－19.51(4.76－8.41)和1.01－1.95 g·kg-1(0.40－1.86 g·kg-1); C含量在各树种间变化范围较小, N、P含量在树种间变化范围较大, N∶P比值在成熟叶和凋落叶中均小于全国陆地植物叶片平均值14.4, 说明木兰科植物的生长受N限制; 常绿树种和落叶树种间成熟叶C、N含量和C:N存在显著差异(p <0.05), P含量、C∶P和N∶P无明显变化(p >0.05), 凋落叶C、P含量和N∶P存在显著差异, N含量和C∶N、C∶P无明显变化; 成熟叶片中的N∶P比与C、N、P含量及其各计量比间均存在显著或极显著相关, 说明N、P间的耦合作用对C物质的积累和在生态系统中的循环及养分利用效率起着重要作用。对叶片中N、P的重吸收在树种间存在差异, 其中落叶树种对N的重吸收显著高于常绿树种, 对P的重吸收则是常绿树种明显高于落叶树种。研究结果有助于加强对木兰科植物的科学施肥养护管理, 加深其在特定区域生态系统中C、N、P循环的理解。     

氮添加对黄河三角洲滨海湿地芦苇养分再吸收效率的影响

大气氮沉降增加能改变土壤养分可利用性,影响滨海湿地植物的养分再吸收。目前研究多关注氮沉降量对养分再吸收过程的影响,且研究集中于叶片,鲜有研究区分不同形态氮素对植物不同器官养分再吸收过程的影响。通过两年的野外控制实验,研究硝态氮、铵态氮添加对黄河三角洲滨海湿地芦苇(Phragmites australis)叶、茎养分再吸收效率的影响。结果表明：两类氮添加均显著增加叶、茎的氮、磷含量(P<0.001),增幅达32.74%—43.22%(氮)、30.91%—36.51%(磷)。叶片氮的再吸收效率为54.14%—67.66%,茎氮的再吸收效率为50.60%—62.85%。叶片磷的再吸收效率为56.80%—70.38%,茎磷的再吸收效率为77.43%—84.95%。两类氮添加均显著降低氮、磷的再吸收效率(P<0.001),但两类氮添加处理下的养分再吸收效率无差异。叶、茎氮的再吸收效率无差异,但茎磷的再吸收效率明显高于叶(P<0.01)。总之,氮添加降低芦苇对氮、磷的再吸收效率,且茎对养分的再吸收也具有不可忽略的贡献。     

Resorption proficiency and efficiency of leaf nutrients in woody plants in eastern China

Aims (i) To explore variations in nutrient resorption of woody plants and their relationship with nutrient limitation and (ii) to identify the factors that control these variations in forests of eastern China.Methods We measured nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations in both green and senesced leaves of 172 woody species at 10 forest sites across eastern China. We compared the nutrient resorption proficiency (NuRP) and efficiency (NuRE) of N and P in plant leaves for different functional groups; we further investigated the latitudinal and altitudinal variations in NuRP and NuRE and the impacts of climate, soil and plant types on leaf nutrient resorptions.Important findings On average, the leaf N resorption proficiency (NRP) and P resorption proficiency (PRP) of woody plants in eastern China were 11.1mg g ? 1 and 0.65 mg g ? 1, respectively; and the corresponding N resorption efficiency (NRE) and P resorption efficiency (PRE) were 49.1% and 51.0%, respectively. Angiosperms have higher NRP (are less proficient) values and lower NRE and PRE values than gymnosperms, but there are no significant differences in NRP, PRP and PRE values between species with different leaf habits (evergreen vs. deciduous angiosperms). Trees have higher NRE and PRE than shrubs. Significant geographical patterns of plant nutrient resorption exist in forests of eastern China. In general, NRP and PRE decrease and PRP and NRE increase with increasing latitude/altitude for all woody species and for the different plant groups. Plant functional groups show more controls than environmental factors (climate and soil) on the N resorption traits (NRP and NRE), while site-related variables present more controls than plant types on PRP and PRE. NRP increases and PRP and NRE decrease significantly with increasing temperature and precipitation for the overall plants and for most groups, except that significant PRE–climate relationship holds for only evergreen angiosperms. Leaf nutrient resorption did not show consistent responses in relation to soil total N and P stoichiometry, probably because the resorption process is regulated by the relative costs of drawing nutrients from soil versus from senescing leaves. These results support our hypothesis that plants growing in P-limited habitats (low latitudes/altitudes or areas with high precipitation/temperature) should have lower PRP and higher PRE, compared with their counterparts in relatively N-limited places (high latitudes/altitudes or areas with low precipitation/temperature). Our findings can improve the understanding of variations in N and P resorption and their responses to global change, and thus facilitate to incorporate these nutrient resorption processes into future biogeochemical models.     

不同降水条件下荒漠草原植物的养分含量及回收对增温和氮素添加的响应

为了探讨荒漠草原植物养分回收特征对长期增温和氮素添加的响应以及自然降水变异对其的调控作用,该研究依托实施12年的模拟增温和氮素添加实验平台,在相对多雨的2016年(超过长期均值52%)和相对少雨的2017年(低于长期均值16%),以常见C_3植物银灰旋花(Convolvulus ammannii)和C_4植物木地肤(Kochia prostrata)为研究对象,测定分析绿叶和枯叶的氮磷含量及回收效率。结果表明:(1)在相对多雨年(2016年),增温使2种植物的绿叶氮、枯叶氮、绿叶磷、枯叶磷含量分别增加了14.32%、25.45%、17.97%和46.47%,氮、磷回收效率分别显著减小了9.41%和16.99%(P0.05);氮素添加使2种植物的绿叶氮、枯叶氮、绿叶磷、枯叶磷含量分别提高了17.32%、25.62%、20.21%和51.41%,而氮、磷回收效率显著降低了9.33%和18.89%(P0.05);增温+氮素添加共同处理显著增加了植物氮磷含量、降低了氮磷回收效率。(2)在相对少雨年(2017年),增温、氮素添加、增温+氮素添加处理对植物叶片氮磷含量、回收效率均无显著影响。(3)叶片氮磷含量在物种间差异极显著(P0.000 1),而氮磷回收效率在物种间无显著差异。(4)回归分析表明,植物叶片氮磷含量随着土壤无机氮、有效磷及含水量的增加而增加,植物氮磷回收效率则随着土壤养分和水分的可利用性的增加而降低。研究认为,荒漠草原植物养分回收对全球变化的响应受自然降水变异的调控。     

Effects of artificial grassland establishment on soil nutrients and carbon properties in a black-soil-type degraded grassland

Despite a growing knowledge of nutrient limitation for mangrove species and how mangroves adapt to low nutrients, there is scant information about the relative importance of N:P ratio and leaf phenolics variability in determining nutrient conservation. In this study, we evaluated possible nutrient conservation strategies of a mangrove Rhizophora stylosa under nutrient limitation. 1. The leaf nutrient concentrations of R. stylosa changed with season, with the highest N concentration in winter and the highest P concentration in spring for both mature and senescent leaves. Leaf N and P concentrations decreased significantly during leaf senescence. Based on N:P ratios R. stylosa forest was N-limited. Accordingly, the nitrogen resorption efficiency (NRE) was significantly higher than phosphorus resorption efficiency (PRE) for the R. stylosa leaves during leaf senescence. The NRE and PRE both reached the highest in the autumn. Average N and P concentrations in the senescent leaves were 0.15% and 0.06% for R. stylosa, respectively, indicating a complete resorption of N and an incomplete resorption of P. There was a significant negative correlation between nitrogen resorption proficiency (NRP) and NRE, meanwhile phosphorus resorption proficiency (PRP) and PRE correlation was also highly significantly. 2. R. stylosa leaves contained relatively high tannin level. Total phenolics, extractable condensed tannins and total condensed tannins contents increased during leaf senescence, and changed between seasons. The lowest concentrations of total phenolics, extractable condensed tannins and total condensed tannins occurred in summer, total phenolics concentrations were inversely related to nitrogen or phosphorus concentrations. 3. Our results confirmed that resorption efficiency during leaf senescence depends on the type of nutrient limitation, and NRE was much higher than PRE under N-limited conditions. R. stylosa forest developed several nutrient conservation strategies in the intertidal coastline surroundings, including high nitrogen resorption efficiency, low nutrient losses and high tannins level.     

Global-scale patterns of nutrient resorption associated with latitude, temperature and precipitation

Aim   Nutrient resorption from senescing leaves is an important mechanism of nutrient conservation in plants, but the patterns of nutrient resorption at the global scale are unknown. Because soil nutrients vary along climatic gradients, we hypothesize that nutrient resorption changes with latitude, temperature and precipitation.
Location   Global.
Methods   We conducted a meta-analysis on a global data set collected from published literature on nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) resorption of woody plants.
Results    For all data pooled, both N resorption efficiency (NRE) and P resorption efficiency (PRE) were significantly related to latitude, mean annual temperature (MAT) and mean annual precipitation (MAP): NRE increased with latitude but decreased with MAT and MAP. In contrast, PRE decreased with latitude but increased with MAT and MAP. When functional groups (shrub versus tree, coniferous versus broadleaf and evergreen versus deciduous) were examined individually, the patterns of NRE and PRE in relation to latitude, MAT and MAP were generally similar.
Main conclusions   The relationships between N and P resorption and latitude, MAT and MAP indicate the existence of geographical patterns of plant nutrient conservation strategies in relation to temperature and precipitation at the global scale, particularly for PRE, which can be an indicator for P limitation in the tropics and selective pressure shaping the evolution of plant traits. Our results suggest that, although the magnitude of plant nutrient resorption might be regulated by local factors such as substrate, spatial patterns are also controlled by temperature or precipitation.     

Resorption of nitrogen,phosphorus and potassium from leaves of lucerne stands of different ages

Background and aims

Nutrient resorption from the senesced to the green leaves can help a plant re-use elements, thus improving adaptability and persistence. How the resorption of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) varies among differently aged lucerne (Medicago sativa) stands and how they correlate to their stoichiometry in the leaves and soil remain uncertain. This study aimed to analyze the resorption efficiencies (REs) of N, P and K and their possible correlations with stoichiometric ratios in the plant and soil.

Methods

The concentrations of plant N, P and K and soil N, P, K and carbon (C) were measured under lucerne stands established in different years, and stoichiometric ratios and REs were calculated. The relationships of REs with stoichiometric ratios were analyzed.

Results

The nitrogen resorption efficiency (NRE) was quite variable among the different stands and tended to rise and then drop with stand age, ranging from 4.6 to 33.7 % with an average of 16.2 %. The phosphorus resorption efficiency (PRE) tended to increase with stand age, ranging from 11.1 to 38.3 % with an average of 27.3 %. The potassium resorption efficiency (KRE) increased with stand age, ranging from 21.0 to 49.8 % with an average of 36.9 %. The KRE was generally highest, followed by the PRE, and the NRE was lowest. Leaf N:P and N:K generally decreased and then increased with stand age, while the K:P increased and then decreased. In the green leaves, total N concentration increased significantly with NRE and PRE, and total P concentration rose significantly with PRE, while in the senesced leaves, total N concentration decreased significantly with NRE and KRE. The N:P in the green leaves decreased significantly with PRE and the K:P in the senesced leaves dropped with NRE. Furthermore, the REs decreased with total soil nutrition status if there was any correlation. The REs increased significantly with soil ammonium N concentration, while the NRE decreased significantly with soil nitrate N concentration. In addition, soil available P concentration at most depths led to significant increases in NRE and KRE. However, the REs were rarely influenced by stoichiometric ratios of soil N, P, K and C.

Conclusions

The NRE rose and then dropped, and the PRE and KRE both increased with stand age. Leaf N:P and N:K generally decreased and then increased with stand age, while K:P increased and then decreased. The concentrations of N, P and K increased in the green leaves and decreased in the senesced leaves with REs if there was any correlation. The REs decreased with total soil nutrition status if there was any correlation. However, the REs hardly changed with stoichiometric ratios in the leaves and soil under differently aged lucerne stands. There appear to be no correlations between REs and element stoichiometries.     

Nutrient conservation strategies in native Andean‐Patagonian forests

Abstract. Nutrient conservation in vegetation affects rates of litter decomposition and soil nutrient availability. Although resorption has been traditionally considered one of the most important plant strategies to conserve nutrients in temperate forests, long leaf life‐span and low nutrient requirements have been postulated as better indicators. We aimed at identifying nutrient conservation strategies within characteristic functional groups of NW Patagonian forests on Andisols. We analysed C‐, N‐, P‐, K‐ and lignin‐concentrations in mature and senescent leaves of ten native woody species within the functional groups: broad‐leaved deciduous species, broad‐leaved evergreens and conifers. We also examined mycorrhizal associations in all species. Nutrient concentration in mature leaves and N‐ resorption were higher in broad‐leaved deciduous species than in the other two functional groups. Conifers had low mature leaf nutrient concentrations, low N‐resorption and high lignin/N ratios in senescent leaves. P‐ and K‐resorptions did not differ among functional groups. Broad‐leaved evergreens exhibited a species‐dependent response. Nitrogen in mature leaves was positively correlated with both N resorption and soil N‐fertility. Despite the high P‐retention capacity of Andisols, N appeared to be the more limiting nutrient, with most species being proficient in resorbing N but not P. The presence of endomycorrhizae in all conifers and the broad‐leaved evergreen Maytenus boaria, ectomycorrhizae in all Nothofagus species (four deciduous, one evergreen), and cluster roots in the broad‐leaved evergreen Lomatia hirsuta, would be possibly explaining why P is less limiting than N in these forests.
