三峡库区马尾松根系生物量的空间分布

以三峡库区主要植被马尾松人工林为研究对象,用内径为10 cm的根钻,分别在马尾松中龄林、近熟林和成熟林内,据树干0.5、1.0、1.5 m和2.0 m处设置取样点,各样点按0-10、10-20、20-30、30-40、40-60 cm将土壤分为5个垂直层次,对马尾松根系的空间分布格局进行调查。结果表明:(1)三峡库区马尾松总根系生物量(0-10 mm)为中龄林(4.72 t/hm²)显著高于成熟林(2.94 t/hm²)和近熟林(2.40 t/hm²)(P<0.05)。细根(0-2 mm)生物量随年龄增加而递减,差异不显著(P>0.05);(2)马尾松3个林龄中根系生物量表现出一定的水平分布特征,但具体趋势表现各异,细根生物量最大值均出现在距离样木1.0 m处;(3)细根主要分布在土壤上层,其中47.53%-71.73%的活细根集中在0-20 cm土壤深度内,且随土层的加深,其生物量明显减少。粗根(2-10 mm)则主要分布于20-60 cm土层范围内;(4)根系直径越小,受环境变化越明显。马尾松细根生物量分布主要受土壤深度的影响,树龄和不同水平距离对细根分布格局影响不显著(P>0.05),各因素对粗根生物量的影响均未达到显著水平(P>0.05)。     

亚热带4种森林凋落物量及其动态特征

通过对枫香林、樟树林、马尾松林、樟树—马尾松混交林4种森林生态系统的凋落物数量及组成进行为期1a的定位研究。结果表明,樟树—马尾松混交林的年凋落总量(4.30 t.hm^-2)＞枫香林(3.66 t.hm^-2)＞马尾松林(3.41 t.hm^-2)＞樟树林(3.26 t.hm^-2)。各组分凋落物中,凋落叶占绝对优势(70%以上),表现为樟树—马尾松混交林(3.09 t.hm^-2)＞枫香林(2.78 t.hm^-2)＞马尾松林(2.46 t.hm^-2)＞樟树林(2.32 t.hm^-2);凋落枝表现为樟树—马尾松混交林(0.73 t.hm^-2)＞樟树林(0.53 t.hm^-2)＞马尾松林(0.30 t.hm^-2)＞枫香林(0.22 t.hm^-2);凋落果表现为马尾松林(0.37 t.hm^-2)＞樟树—马尾松混交林(0.17 t.hm^-2)＞枫香林(0.12 t.hm^-2)＞樟树林(0.09 t.hm^-2);碎屑表现为枫香林(0.55 t.hm^-2)＞樟树林(0.33 t.hm^-2)＞樟树—马尾松混交林(0.31 t.hm^-2)＞马尾松林(0.27 t.hm^-2)。枫香和樟树林年凋落量的最大值分别在10月(1.22 t.hm^-2)和8月(0.58 t.hm^-2),而马尾松林和混交林年凋落量的最大值都在11月(分别为0.77 t.hm^-2和1.23 t.hm^-2)。     

Water-holding capacity of ground covers and soils in alpine and sub-alpine shrubs in western Sichuan, China

The water-holding functions of soils and ground covers in terms of moss and litters in the three major shrubs at different altitude gradients were studied using field investigation. The water-holding functions were measured and expressed with Biomass (t/hm²) of moss and litters, along with their maximal water holding capacity (MWHC, t/hm²) and maximal water holding rate (MWHR, %). The physical characteristics of the soils included bulk density, MWHC, capillary water holding capacity (CWHC), and least water holding capacity (LWHC). The result showed that Rhododendron przewalskii shrub exhibited the highest water-holding capacity among the three types. The average MWHC of the moss, litters, and at a depth of 0–40cm in R. przewalskii at different elevation gradients was 46.73,139.98 t/hm², and 2216.92 t/hm², respectively, whereas the average MWHC of the moss, litters, and soils in Quercus aquifolioides was 1.64, 72.08 t/hm² and 2114.88 t/hm², respectively. There was no moss in Quercus cocciferoides, and the average MWHC of litters and soils at a depth of 0–40 cm at different elevation gradients was 84.55 t/hm² and 2062.83 t/hm², respectively. The biomass and MWHC of the moss layer in R. przewalskii shrub significantly decreased with increasing elevation, whereas the reverse occurred in Q. aquifolioides before the maximum was reached at 3400 m, and then the SCM and MWHC decreased. MWHR of the moss layer in R. przewalskii was higher than that in Q. aquifolioides. The biomass and MWHC of the litters in R. przewalskii and Q. aquifolioides decreased with increasing elevation, whereas the reverse occurred in Q. cocciferoide. Regardless of shrub types, soil bulk density increased significantly with increasing soil depth, whereas MWHC decreased significantly with increasing soil depth. Significant decrease in CWHC and LWHC were found only in certain shrub communities. The MWHC with respect to the 0–40cm soil depth significantly decreased with increasing elevation only in R. przewalskii shrub, whereas there was no significant difference in MWHCs among the different elevation gradients for the other two types.     

吊丝单竹林生态系统碳储量及其垂直空间分配特征

利用标准样方法研究了吊丝单竹(Dendrocalamopsis vario-striata)林的碳储量及其空间分布特征。结果表明,吊丝单竹不同器官的碳密度为0.4684~0.5092 g g^-1,依次为竹秆>竹蔸>竹根>竹枝>竹叶;碳储量在吊丝单竹不同器官中的分配以竹秆最大(达50.46%),其次为竹蔸(20.71%),竹叶的最小(仅5.01%)。整个吊丝单竹林生态系统碳库主要由乔木层、灌草层、枯落物层和土壤层4部分组成,总碳贮量为104.9321 t hm^-2,其空间分布为土壤层>乔木层>枯落物层>灌草层,其中土壤层占总碳储量的比例最大(59.74%);整个吊丝单竹林乔木层年固碳量为6.4460 t hm^-2a^-1,相当于每年同化CO₂的量为23.6353 t hm^-2a^-1,这略低于我国森林植被的平均年固碳量,表明吊丝单竹林还有较大的发展空间。

基于2005-2010年林业资源清查数据,采用材积源生物量法,运用地理信息系统技术,估算和分析了桂西北植被碳密度及其储量的空间分布及其变化。结果显示:(1) 研究区域从2005年到2010年呈现碳汇变化趋势,植被碳储量由4.19×10⁴t增加到4.27×10⁴t(增幅为1.84%),植被碳密度从29.04t/hm²增加到29.57 t/hm²。(2) 从治理措施、林种起源方式及林种类型来看,自然保护区的植被碳密度最大,超过40 t/hm²。2005-2010年,人工植苗、直播、飞播和萌生方式植被碳密度增加,退耕还林工程的植被碳密度均呈明显增长(增加3.00 t/hm²),所有林种碳密度都呈不同程度的增长。 (3)植被碳密度空间分布上,大致表现为西部高、中东部低,北部高、南部低。西部区植被碳密度均值超过40 t/hm²,中东部区植被碳密度均值低于25 t/hm²。植被碳密度变化在空间分布上表现为无论是非喀斯特区还是喀斯特区的植被碳密度都有增长趋势,其中有7个县市植被碳密度升级为更高等级。研究表明,随着退耕还林、生态移民等治理措施的实施,区域植被碳密度显著增加,生态环境好转。     

马尾松和杉木树干韧皮部水溶性糖 δ13C值对气象因子的响应

通过测定亚热带马尾松和杉木树干韧皮部水溶性糖δ¹³C值的连日变化,及其对天气变化过程的响应,研究δ¹³C值对短期天气变化动态的响应特征。结果显示,春季马尾松和杉木树干韧皮部水溶性糖δ¹³C日均值分别介于-26.81‰到-26.49‰之间,以及-29.26‰到-27.47‰之间,平均值分别为(-26.58±0.12)‰和(-28.67±0.65)‰。进一步分析表明,马尾松树干韧皮部水溶性糖δ¹³C值与取样之前第4天的太阳辐射、水气压亏缺、相对湿度和空气温度显著相关(P≤0.05),杉木树干韧皮部水溶性糖δ¹³C值取样之前第3天的太阳辐射、水气压亏缺和相对湿度显著相关(P≤0.05),但与空气温度的相关性不显著(P≤0.05)。在所测定的环境因子中,太阳辐射是影响马尾松和杉木树干韧皮部水溶性糖δ¹³C值的首要因素。当天降水事件可能导致马尾松和杉木树干韧皮部水溶性糖δ¹³C值连日变化出现异常波动。马尾松和杉木韧皮部水溶性糖δ¹³C值可以敏感记录短期天气变化动态。     

长白落叶松林龄序列上的生物量及碳储量分配规律

由于多年来的过量采伐和重采轻育,伊春东折棱河林场人工长白落叶松林分质量普遍下降,森林生态功能严重衰退。结合对该研究地同一立地类型的人工长白落叶松林(Larix ologensis)林木各组分生物量垂直分配规律的分析,研究了其生物量在年龄序列上的分布及分配规律,为提高其林分生物量及碳储量采取相应的抚育管理措施提供一定的理论基础。结果表明,处于中龄、近熟及成熟林中的林木树干、树皮及活枝生物量所占比例受年龄影响较小,而叶生物量随林龄增大呈现明显递减变化;不同年龄长白落叶松的垂直分布规律基本一致:其树皮及树干生物量随树高增大呈现递减规律,其活枝及叶生物量主要集中分布于树冠中部,而其死枝生物量未呈现明显分布规律;长白落叶松根系生物量随着林分年龄的增大,其粗根、中根及细根所占比例呈现递减规律,而其大根所占比例随年龄的增大基本呈增大趋势。通过统计分析得出,长白落叶松生物量与林分蓄积的最优模型为:W=0.4909M+9.6624(R²=0.8893),进而估算得出:研究区域幼龄长白落叶松林分生物量为1273.72 t/hm²,碳储量为656.98 t/hm²;中龄长白落叶松林分生物量为15480.13 t/hm²,碳储量为7984.65 t/hm²;近熟、成熟龄长白落叶松林分生物量为7684.41 t/hm²,碳储量为3963.62 t/hm²。随林分结构的改善以及中龄、近熟及成熟林分的不断增加,生物量及碳储量会相应增加。     

四川盆地四种柏木林分类型的水文效应

四川盆地丘陵区是长江上游水土流失最严重地区之一,该区大面积柏木纯林林分结构不合理、天然更新不良、林分稳定性差、产品产量和水土保持功能低,急需进行结构调整。通过群落样地调查和坡面径流场观测,对比分析了四川盆地4种柏木林分类型的水文效应。结果表明:(1) 4种林分类型林冠截留量与降水量呈幂函数关系; 林冠截留率随雨量级的增大而减小,对次降雨的最大截留量为栎柏混交林 (9.5 mm) > 桤柏混交林 (9.2 mm) > 松柏混交林 (8.8 mm) > 柏木纯林 (8.5 mm)。(2) 4种林分类型之间未分解层和半分解层枯落物持水量随浸泡时间的变化存在极显著差异;枯落物总存储量变化范围为4.06-7.62 t/hm²,枯落物总持水量排序为栎柏混交林 (17.07 t/hm²) > 桤柏混交林 (13.26 t/hm²)> 松柏混交林 (8.89 t/hm²) > 柏木纯林 (7.57 t/hm²)。(3) 4种林分0-40 cm土层非毛管孔隙度变化范围为 4.21%-6.94％,土壤最大持水量排序为栎柏混交林(1820.83±124.80) t/hm² > 松柏混交林(1686.85±76.15) t/hm² > 桤柏混交林(1644.45±119.84) t/hm² > 柏木纯林(1574.14±119.89) t/hm²;4种林分类型雨季产沙量变化范围在534.2-1467.9 kg/hm²之间。综合分析表明,栎柏混交林是4种柏木林分类型中水土保持效果最优的;因此,该区柏木纯林的结构调整应以促进栎柏混交林的演替为目标。     

滇中高原云南松林枯落物输入对土壤碳氮储量及其分布格局的影响

为了更好地理解土壤碳氮对枯落物输入变化的响应,通过枯落物添加与去除实验（DIRT）对滇中高原云南松林枯落物输入变化对土壤碳氮储量及其分布格局的影响进行了研究。2018年3月至2019年2月分别设置6种枯落物输处理,分别为对照（CO）、去除枯落物（NL）、双倍枯落物（DL）、去除根系（NR）、无输入（NI）以及去除有机层与A层（O/A-Less）,研究了不同处理条件下土壤剖面上碳氮储量的分布规律。研究结果表明：（1）不同处理全碳储量为134.49-170.92 t/hm²,全碳储量在不同处理间表现为：S_C（NL）=170.92 t/hm² > S_C（CO）=168.10 t/hm² > S_C（NR）=153.26 t/hm² > S_C（NI）=147.20 t/hm² > S_{C（O/A-Less）}=143.54 t/hm² > S_C（DL）=134.49 t/hm²,不同处理0-20 cm土层全碳储量占0-60 cm土层全碳储量的40.86%-53.56%;不同处理全氮储量表现为：S_N（CO）=11.83 t/hm² > S_N（NL）=9.70 t/hm² > S_N（DL）=8.70 t/hm² > S_N（NR）=8.35 t/hm² > S_{N（O/A-Less）}=8.21 t/hm² > S_N（NI）=8.09 t/hm²。不同处理0-20 cm土层的全氮储量占0-60 cm土层全氮储量的39.28%-46.04%。云南松林地枯落物添加去除实验发现去除枯落物短期内可以增加土壤碳储量,其他处理均在一定程度上减少了土壤碳氮储量。（2）地上枯落物输入对表层（0-20 cm）土壤碳氮影响显著,根系输入对深层（20-40 cm）土壤碳氮影响显著;（3）土壤C、N存在耦合关系,不同处理土壤全碳含量与全氮含量极显著正相关,并且土壤全碳含量与土壤各化学计量比均呈极显著正相关关系;土壤容重与土壤碳氮含量具有极显著负相关关系。     

Plant-Parasitic Nematodes of South Viet Nam

Between 1974 and 1978, 2,842 identifications of plant-parasitic nematodes were made from more than 1,700 soil and plant samples collected in eight provinces of South Viet Nam. Species in nine genera—Helicotylenchus, Criconemoides, Meloidogyne, Pratylenchus, Tylenchorhynchus, Hoplolaimus, Hirschmanniella, Xiphinema, and Rotylenchulus—comprised 96.1% of the identifications; the remaining 3.9% were species of 11 genera. Fourteen genera were associated with rice which was grown on about 2,500,000 ha in 1970. Of these, Ditylenchus, Hirschmanniella, and Meloidogyne were most important. Ditylenchus angustus caused severe damage to about 50,000 ha of flooded rice in the Mekong Delta in 1976. Hirschmanniella spp. were found in all samples examined from flooded rice fields. Meloidogyne spp. were common in rice seedbeds, upland rice, and rice not kept flooded continuously. Meloidogyne and Pratylenchus spp. were found in roots of 22 of the 32 crop plants sampled. Little or no attempt was made in South Viet Nam to control nematodes.     

Study of types of some species of "Filaria" (Nematoda) parasites of small mammals described by Von Linstow and Molin

Parasitic nematodes from the Berlin (ZMB) and Vienna (NMW) Museum collections referred to the genus Filaria Mueller, 1787 by von Linstow or Molin were studied. Three samples were in good condition and the specimens redescribed. Litomosa hepatica (von Linstow, 1897) n. comb., sample ZMB Vermes Entozoa 3368, from the megachiropteran Pteropus neohibernicus, Bismarck Archipelago, resembles L. maki Tibayrenc, Bain & Ramanchandran, 1979, from Pteropus vampyrus, in Malaysia, but the buccal capsule differs. Both species display particular morphological characters which differ from species of Litomosa parasitic in microchiropterans. The remaining material originates from Brazil. The spicule morphology of Litomosoides circularis (von Linstow, 1899) Chandler, 1931, sample ZMB Vermes Entozoa 1059 from Hesperomys spec. (= Holochilus brasiliensis), Porto Alegre, confirms that it belongs to the sigmodontis group; the microfilaria presents characters of the genus Litomosoides, e.g. body attenuated at both extremities and salient cephalic hook. Taxonomic discussions by others confirm that species of Litomosoides belonging to the sigmodontis group and described subsequently are distinct from L. circularis. Litomosoides serpicula (Molin, 1858) Guerrero, Martin, Gardner & Bain, 2002, is redescribed, sample NMW 6323 from the bat Phyllostoma spiculatum (= Sturnira lilium), Ypanema. It is very close to L. brasiliensis Almeida, 1936, type host Moytis sp., but distinguished by a single ring in the buccal capsule, rather than two, supporting previous conclusions that the taxon L. brasiliensis, as generally regarded, may represent a complex of species. Samples NMW 6322 and NMW 6324, from other bats and also identified by Molin (1858) as Filaria serpicula, contain unidentifiable fragments of Litomosoides incertae sedis. Filaria hyalina von Linstow, 1890, sample ZMB Vermes Entozoa Q 3905 from Sorer vulgaris (= Sorex araneus), is incertae sedis because it contains two unidentifiable posterior parts of male, which might be an acuarid, Stammerinema sp. Filaria vesperuginis von Linstow, 1885, sample ZMB Vermes Entozoa Q 3929, from the bat Vesperugo serotinus (= Eptesicus serotinus), contains encysted nematode larvae and is a nomen dubium.

Multilocus phylogenetic analysis of the genus Aeromonas

A broad multilocus phylogenetic analysis (MLPA) of the representative diversity of a genus offers the opportunity to incorporate concatenated inter-species phylogenies into bacterial systematics. Recent analyses based on single housekeeping genes have provided coherent phylogenies of Aeromonas. However, to date, a multi-gene phylogenetic analysis has never been tackled. In the present study, the intra- and inter-species phylogenetic relationships of 115 strains representing all Aeromonas species described to date were investigated by MLPA. The study included the independent analysis of seven single gene fragments (gyrB, rpoD, recA, dnaJ, gyrA, dnaX, and atpD), and the tree resulting from the concatenated 4705 bp sequence. The phylogenies obtained were consistent with each other, and clustering agreed with the Aeromonas taxonomy recognized to date. The highest clustering robustness was found for the concatenated tree (i.e. all Aeromonas species split into 100% bootstrap clusters). Both possible chronometric distortions and poor resolution encountered when using single-gene analysis were buffered in the concatenated MLPA tree. However, reliable phylogenetic species delineation required an MLPA including several “bona fide” strains representing all described species.     

Fate map of the distal portion of Drosophila proboscis as inferred from the expression and mutations of basic patterning genes

The late-third-instar labial disc is comprised of two disc-proper cell layers, one representing mainly the ventral half of the anterior compartment (L-layer) and the other, the dorsal half of the anterior compartment and most, if not all, of the posterior compartment (M-layer). In the L-layer, Distal-less represses homothorax whereas no Distal-less-dependent homothorax repression occurs in the M-layer where Distal-less is coexpressed with homothorax. In wild-type labial discs, clawless, one of the two homeobox genes expressed in distal cells receiving maximum (Decapentaplegic+Wingless) signaling activity in leg and antennal discs, is specifically repressed by proboscipedia. A fate map, inferred from data on basic patterning gene expression in larval and pupal stages and mutant phenotypes, indicates the inner surface of the labial palpus, which includes the pseudotracheal region, to be a derivative of the distal portion of the M-layer expressing wingless, patched, Distal-less and homothorax. The outer surface of the labial palpus with more than 30 taste bristles derives from an L-layer area consisting of dorsal portions of the anterior and posterior compartments, each expressing Distal-less. Our analysis also indicates that, in adults and pupae, the anterior-posterior boundary, dividing roughly equally the outer surface of the distiproboscis, runs along the outer circumference of the inner surface of distiproboscis.     

Molecular phylogeny of Phoma and allied anamorph genera: Towards a reclassification of the Phoma complex

The present generic concept of Phoma is broadly defined, with nine sections being recognised based on morphological characters. Teleomorph states of Phoma have been described in the genera Didymella, Leptosphaeria, Pleospora and Mycosphaerella, indicating that Phoma anamorphs represent a polyphyletic group. In an attempt to delineate generic boundaries, representative strains of the various Phoma sections and allied coelomycetous genera were included for study. Sequence data of the 18S nrDNA (SSU) and the 28S nrDNA (LSU) regions of 18 Phoma strains included were compared with those of representative strains of 39 allied anamorph genera, including Ascochyta, Coniothyrium, Deuterophoma, Microsphaeropsis, Pleurophoma, Pyrenochaeta, and 11 teleomorph genera. The type species of the Phoma sections Phoma, Phyllostictoides, Sclerophomella, Macrospora and Peyronellaea grouped in a subclade in the Pleosporales with the type species of Ascochyta and Microsphaeropsis. The new family Didymellaceae is proposed to accommodate these Phoma sections and related anamorph genera. The present study demonstrated that Phoma radicina, the type species of Phoma sect. Paraphoma and Phoma heteromorphospora, the type species of Phoma sect. Heterospora can be assigned to the Phaeosphaeriaceae and Leptosphaeriaceae respectively.     

Spatial and temporal regulation of the homeotic selector gene Antennapedia is required for the establishment of leg identity in Drosophila

Antennapedia is one of the homeotic selector genes required for specification of segment identity in Drosophila. Dominant mutations that ectopically express Antennapedia cause transformation of antenna to leg. Loss-of-function mutations cause partial transformation of leg to antenna. Here we examine the role of Antennapedia in the establishment of leg identity in light of recent advances in our understanding of antennal development. In Antennapedia mutant clones in the leg disc, Homothorax and Distal-less are coexpressed and act via spineless to transform proximal femur to antenna. Antennapedia is negatively regulated during leg development by Distal-less, spineless, and dachshund and this reduced Antennapedia expression is needed for the proper development of distal leg elements. These findings suggest that the temporal and spatial regulation of the homeotic selector gene Antennapedia in the leg disc is necessary for normal leg development in Drosophila.
