桂林会仙喀斯特湿地芦苇群落土壤氮的季节变化

该研究以桂林会仙喀斯特湿地典型芦苇植物群落土壤为对象,研究了土壤氮含量的季节动态变化特征,探讨了土壤氮对水热季节变化的响应趋势。结果表明:土壤有机氮在全氮中所占比例较大,0~10 cm土层的全氮与0~10 cm和10~20 cm土层的速效氮季节变化特征一致,表现为夏季秋季春季冬季;10~20 cm和20~30 cm土层的全氮和有机氮均表现为春季夏季秋季冬季。0~10 cm土层的有机氮和10~20 cm土层的速效氮变化趋势一致,表现为秋季夏季春季冬季。各层土壤硝态氮呈现出先升高后降低的单峰曲线变化趋势,均表现为夏季春季秋季冬季,并与铵态氮0~10 cm和10~20 cm土层的季节变化趋势相一致。20~30 cm土层的铵态氮与0~10 cm和20~30 cm土层的土壤微生物量氮含量时间动态一致,均表现为春季秋季夏季冬季,10~20 cm土层的微生物量氮表现为秋季春季夏季冬季的趋势。土壤铵态氮含量明显高于硝态氮,各层土壤铵态氮含量基本呈现出不规则"M"形的双峰曲线变化。会仙喀斯特湿地典型芦苇植物群落不同土层土壤各形态氮含量的动态特征对水热变化的季节响应差异较大,不同月份之间有所不同,但均在冬季含量最低,与月均气温和月均降雨量的变化关系表现为不完全的同步趋势。土壤氮含量季节变化特征的差异主要与气温、水分条件、不同生长期芦苇吸收利用、土壤有机碳、凋落物养分的归还以及有机氮矿化等影响有关。该研究结果为桂林会仙喀斯特国家湿地公园生态功能恢复与可持续发展利用提供了科学依据。

梨树弃枝粉碎还田对梨园土壤理化性质和梨生长的影响

以梨树品种‘金蜜梨’为对象,于2017-2018年进行梨树枝条粉碎覆盖还田试验,设置不还田(0 kg·plant~(-1),对照)、低量还田(4 kg·plant~(-1))、常规量还田(8 kg·plant~(-1))和高量还田(12 kg·plant~(-1))4个施用量处理,考察不同施用量处理对梨园土壤矿质元素含量、土壤微生物数量、土壤酶活性、梨树新生枝条生长状况、梨树叶片生长状况和梨果实品质等的影响,探讨梨树冬季修剪废枝还田的效果和资源化利用途径。结果显示:(1)梨树枝条常规量还田处理使梨园土壤中有机质、全锰、全铁、全铜、全锌、全硼、全钙、全镁、全硫、全氮、硝态氮、速效钾和有效磷含量均显著提高,梨园土壤pH值显著上升;而高量还田处理使土壤中全锰、全锌以及硝态氮含量显著降低,低量还田处理也使土壤中全硫、全磷和有效磷含量显著降低。(2)常规量还田处理显著增加了梨园土壤真菌和放线菌数量,同时显著提高了土壤过氧化氢酶活性;高量还田处理使土壤过氧化物酶活性显著下降,但显著增加了土壤中细菌数量。(3)梨树新生树枝直径在低量还田处理下显著增加,但其叶片百叶厚、百叶重、叶绿素含量和类胡萝卜素含量在各处理组间均无显著变化。(4)常规量还田处理使梨果实单果重、果实纵横经、Vc含量以及果实硬度显著增加,但果实的可滴定酸含量显著下降,促使果实品质明显提高。研究表明,冬季适量梨树枝条粉碎覆盖还田能显著提高梨园土壤矿质元素含量和有机质含量,有效改善土壤酸化状况,增加土壤真菌和放线菌数量及其相关土壤酶活性,促进梨树新生枝条生长,提高果实品质;该试验条件下短期内以改善土壤综合性质为目的最佳枝条还田量为8 kg·plant~(-1)。     

不同植物种植对松嫩平原盐碱地土壤理化性质与细根生长的影响

土地利用方式如何影响土壤理化性质及其作用深度一直是土壤生态学的研究热点,但是对松嫩平原退化盐碱地的相关研究匮乏。以肇东实验林场为研究对象,对8种植被类型的3个土层0~60 cm进行采样,共测定13个相关指标,结果显示：不同植被对根系密度、土壤pH、速效磷含量、土壤含水量、电导率、有机碳含量、全氮含量具有显著影响：其中前3个在不同土层的种间差异显著不同,而其余4个指标在60 cm土壤内种间差异一致。具体表现为：0~40 cm水曲柳根系密度最大,但在40~60 cm草地根系密度最大;黄檗的pH值在0~20 cm最大,但是在40~60 cm最小,而草地的pH值在20~60 cm均大于其他植物种类;速效磷含量在0~20、40~60 cm均是樟子松最小,但在20~40 cm层樟子松速效磷含量最高。草地土壤含水量26.7%,显著高于其它,是落叶松的1.8倍,其土壤电导率为503.4 μs·cm^-1,明显大于其它各植被类型;杨树、樟子松的土壤有机碳含量显著低于黄檗、榆树、草地和水曲柳;土壤全氮含量最低的樟子松和杨树仅为草地的72.3%。所有其他养分包括全磷、全钾、速效钾不同植被间没有差异。上述结果说明,与原有植被草地相比,松嫩平原盐碱化土壤造林虽然能降低盐碱化,但同时对水分消耗较大,造林各个树种对土壤养分消耗相差不大,多体现在有机碳和氮。这些发现可为今后该地区种间差异比较、土壤肥力评价、土壤养分收支平衡等研究提供指导。     

有机肥对粉垄蔗地土壤养分及甘蔗产量品质的影响

为了研究施用有机肥对粉垄条件下甘蔗产量和品质的影响,该研究以蚯蚓粪、猪粪分别与复合肥配施于粉垄蔗地中,并以单施复合肥作为对照,研究有机肥与复合肥配施对粉垄土壤理化性状及甘蔗养分、产量、蔗茎品质的影响。结果表明:(1)与对照相比,有机肥与复合肥混施可在不同时期分别提高粉垄土壤有机质、全氮、全磷、碱解氮、速效磷、速效钾含量,且对于土壤中速效养分含量的提升主要集中于甘蔗生长前期(6—8月),但在土壤pH值和容重方面影响不显著。(2)蚯蚓粪、猪粪与复合肥混施均能不同程度提高甘蔗生长前期的+1叶和根系中的全氮、全磷、全钾含量,使产量分别比对照提高了28.09%、32.81%。砍收时甘蔗的茎长、茎径、单茎重、有效茎数、蔗汁糖分、甘蔗糖分高于对照但不显著,出苗率、分蘖率、锤度影响不显著。粉垄耕作条件下,选择合适的有机肥与复合肥配施可增加土壤速效养分和有机质、全氮、全磷含量,也能提高甘蔗根叶全氮、全磷、全钾含量,提高甘蔗产量。     

结果初期黄冠梨对春施15N-尿素的吸收、分配与利用

以3年生黄冠梨为材料,探讨了早春施用¹⁵N尿素后,树体在萌芽期-新梢缓慢生长期和新梢缓慢生长期-果实成熟期对氮素的吸收、分配与利用特性。结果表明: 梨树在萌芽期-新梢缓慢生长期主要以新梢和叶片等营养器官生长为核心;在新梢缓慢生长期-果实成熟期则以根系等贮藏器官生长为主,果实产量品质形成为辅,且树体尤其是贮藏器官的生物量成倍增加。由于各器官尤其是新梢和叶片生长旺盛、新梢缓慢生长期吸收的标记氮量相对较多,各器官吸收的肥料氮(Ndff)值相对较高;果实成熟期除粗根外各器官的Ndff值均低于新梢缓慢生长期。萌芽期到新梢缓慢生长期吸收的标记氮主要分配在新梢和叶片营养器官中,新梢缓慢生长期到果实成熟期吸收的标记氮则主要分配在贮藏器官中;整个生育期间,植株吸收的标记氮在贮藏器官中分配率最高,营养器官次之,生殖器官中分配率最低。3年生梨树从萌芽期-新梢缓慢生长期、新梢缓慢生长期-果实成熟期吸收的肥料氮分别占当年总吸氮量的31.1%和21.0%,而两个时期内吸收的土壤氮占比分别达68.9%和79.0%。     

不同管理方式下橡胶林土壤氮动态特征

对西双版纳割胶、未割胶条件下橡胶林种植带土壤及其保护带土壤氮素动态变化特征进行了研究,并比较了不同保护带种植方式(距瓣豆绿肥覆盖与野生杂草覆盖)对土壤氮素动态的影响。结果表明,橡胶林种植带土壤全氮、碱解氮和硝态氮含量低于保护带。橡胶林土壤全氮、碱解氮、铵态氮、硝态氮均呈现明显的动态变化,种植距瓣豆绿肥覆盖与野生杂草生长覆盖的橡胶林土壤氮变化趋势一致。土壤全氮随时间逐渐下降,碱解氮含量先升后降,铵态氮和硝态氮含量变化幅度较大。橡胶林土壤全氮和碱解氮含量呈现表层(0～20cm)>中层(20～40cm)>底层(40～60cm)的趋势,且未割胶处理全氮和碱解氮含量>割胶处理,而保护带为距瓣豆绿肥覆盖的割胶橡胶林>杂草生长覆盖的橡胶林。距瓣豆绿肥覆盖的保护带土壤硝态氮含量高于杂草生长覆盖。碱解氮与铵态氮含量呈显著的负相关、与硝态氮呈显著正相关。割胶橡胶林土壤氮养分含量最低。橡胶林土壤种植豆科距瓣豆绿肥能够改善土壤氮素肥力。     

Periods of organogenesis in mono- and bicyclic annual shoots of Juglans regia L. (Juglandaceae)

The organogenetic cycle of shoots on main branches of 4-year-old Juglans regia trees was studied. Mono- and bicyclic floriferous and vegetative annual shoots were analysed. Five parent annual shoot types were sampled between October 1992 and August 1993. Organogenesis of summer growth units was monitored between 16 Jun. and 3 Aug. 1993. Variations over time in the number of nodes, cataphylls and embryonic green leaves of terminal buds were studied. The number of nodes of parent shoot buds was compared with the number of nodes of shoots derived from parent shoot buds. The spring growth units of mono- and bicyclic shoots consist exclusively of preformed leaves which were differentiated, respectively, during the spring flush of growth (mid-April until mid-May) or the summer flush of growth (mid-June until early August) in the previous growing season. Thus, winter buds may consist of flower and leaf primordia differentiated in two different periods during annual shoot extension. The summer growth units of bicyclic shoots consist of preformed leaves that were differentiated in spring buds during the spring flush of growth in the current growing season. Bud morphology is compared between spring and summer shoots.

通过单施、配施和同施氮、磷、钾肥,研究了不同施肥方式下,茶园春、夏、秋季茶树一芽二叶新梢的氮、磷、钾含量及新梢叶片光合生理的变化,并通过逐步回归分析建立了春、夏、秋季茶树叶片净光合速率(P_n)的回归方程.结果表明: 不同施肥方式对茶树春、夏、秋季新梢的氮、磷、钾含量影响较大.相同施肥方式下,夏、秋季茶树新梢的氮、磷含量低于春季,而钾含量高于春季.氮磷钾肥同施有利于春季茶树叶片P_n的提高,而单施磷肥对其产生抑制作用,单施氮肥可显著提高夏、秋季茶树叶片P_n;相同施肥方式下,夏、秋季茶树叶片P_n要高于春季.气孔导度(g_s)、蒸腾速率(T_r)与夏、秋季茶树P_n呈极显著正相关.逐步回归方程及相关分析表明,季节不同,影响茶树叶片P_n的主要生理因子不同,其共同影响因子是胞间CO₂浓度(C_i)和磷含量,其中C_i对茶树P_n有一定的抑制作用,而磷对其有一定的促进作用.     

Seasonal changes in foliar macronutrients (N,P, K,Ca and Mg) inEucalyptus saligna Sm. andE. wandoo Blakely growing in rehabilitated bauxite mine soils of the Darling Range,Western Australia

Summary Seasonal changes in the foliar concentration of macronutrients (N, P, K, Ca and Mg) in sapling trees ofEucalyptus saligna Sm. andE. wandoo Blakely growing in rehabilitated bauxite mined areas in the Darling Range of Western Australia are described. Foliar N concentration decreased with age of the fully expanded leaf tissue. Leaf N concentrations were also high when rates of litter decomposition were expected to be high during the period of early spring. The greatest foliar N difference between trees growing in good soil conditions and those from poorer soil conditions also occurred during this period. Levels of P in leaves were highest in young developing leaves but once the leaves reached full size, no seasonal trend in P concentration was observed. Foliar K was lower during the winter and probably related to the period of maximum leaching by precipitation. High foliar K during summer, however, could be related to the role of K in lowering cellular water potential. Leaf Ca was highest during early sping. Low mobility of cellular Ca during the cool portion of the year was indicated. Foliar Mg showed a weak pattern of decreasing concentration with leaf age. The best season for sampling for these broadleafed evergreen species to provide information on plant nutrient status appears to be in spring.     

不同贮藏条件对沙田柚果实苦味物质含量的影响

沙田柚原产广西,营养丰富且适合高血压和糖尿病等患者食用,近年来在沙田柚产业中存在品质下降、有苦味、异味生成等问题。为了研究不同贮藏条件下沙田柚苦味物质的含量变化,该文利用高效液相色谱仪,对室温包薄膜袋(A)、室温不包薄膜袋(B)和4℃低温不包薄膜袋(C)三种不同贮藏条件下,沙田柚外果皮、中果皮、囊衣、汁胞和种子中柚皮苷、柠檬苦素和诺米林在贮藏过程中的含量变化进行了测定。结果表明：沙田柚果实苦味物质以柚皮苷为主,主要分布在中果皮和囊衣中,柠檬苦素主要分布在种子和外果皮中,诺米林主要分布在种子中。各处理果实在贮藏过程中苦味物质含量变化不同,其中柚皮苷含量略有上升,柠檬苦素和诺米林含量整体呈下降趋势,略有波动,而汁胞中柠檬苦素和诺米林含量先上升再下降。三种不同贮藏条件相比,4℃低温不包薄膜袋贮藏的果实汁胞中柚皮苷和柠檬苦素的含量最高,在贮藏第30天,A、B、C 三种不同贮藏条件果实汁胞中柚皮苷含量分别为(0.139±0.006)、(0.190±0.009)和(0.194±0.019) mg?g-1,柠檬苦素含量分别为(47.28±1.91)、(33.64±1.90)和(84.19±5.56)μg?g-1。与此相反,外果皮、中果皮、囊衣和种子中柚皮苷、柠檬苦素和诺米林含量最低。该研究结果为采后沙田柚贮藏保鲜方式的选择提供了理论指导。

Relative growth rate of leaf biomass and leaf nitrogen content in several mediterranean woody species

In many plant species, herbivory is a major determinant of leaf mortality and it can cause a strong reduction in productive potential. Most predation occurs on young, expanding leaves. Thus, a rapid growth of the leaves can reduce the impact of predation. Furthermore, in cold Mediterranean climates the length of the growing season is constrained to a short period in spring and early summer owing both to low winter temperatures and drought stress in early summer. Therefore, a rapid deployment of leaf area and a high photosynthetic capacity during the spring and early summer might have important positive effects on the final carbon balance of the leaf population. Relative growth rates (RGR) of leaf biomass were measured in 19 woody species typical of Central Western Spain with deciduous and evergreen habits. Highly significant differences were detected in the leaf growth rate of the different species. The differences between species, however, did not correlate either with the mean leaf life-span of each of the species or with other leaf traits such as photosynthetic capacity, specific leaf area or nitrogen content. Leaf growth rate was positively correlated with time elapsed between leaf initiation and fruit maturation, so that species with fruit dispersal in spring and early summer in general had lower leaf growth rates than species with autumn fruit shedding. This relationship shows the effects of the concurrence between vegetative and reproductive organs for nutrients and other resources. Nitrogen concentration in the leaves was very high at the time of bud break, and declined during leaf expansion owing to the dilution associated with the increase in structural components. The rate of nitrogen dilution was, thus, positively related to the leaf growth rate. Relative growth rates calculated for nitrogen mass in leaves were very low compared to the growth in total mass. This suggests that most leaf nitrogen is translocated from the plant stores to the leaf biomass before the start of leaf expansion and that the contribution of root uptake during leaf expansion is comparatively low.     

Temporal variation in leaf nitrogen partitioning of a broad-leaved evergreen tree, <Emphasis Type="Italic">Quercus myrsinaefolia</Emphasis>

We examined temporal changes in the amount of nitrogenous compounds in leaves from the outer and inner parts of the crown of Quercus myrsinaefolia growing in a seasonal climate. Throughout the leaf life span, metabolic protein and Rubisco content closely correlated with total nitrogen content, while structural protein content was relatively stable after full leaf expansion. Chlorophyll content was affected by shading as well as total nitrogen content in outer leaves that were overtopped by new shoots in the second year. Outer leaves showed a large seasonal variation in photosynthetic nitrogen-use efficiency (PNUE; the light-saturated photosynthetic rate per unit leaf nitrogen content) during the first year of their life, with PNUE decreasing from the peak in summer towards winter. Outer and inner leaves both showed age-related decline in PNUE in the second year. There were no such drastic changes in leaf nitrogen partitioning that could explain seasonal and yearly variations in PNUE. Nitrogen resorption occurred in overwintering leaves in spring. Metabolic protein explained the majority of nitrogen being resorbed, whereas structural protein, which was low in degradability, contributed little to nitrogen resorption.     

The resource balance of Milium effusum with emphasis on environmental resource supply

Summary Growth of the broad-leaved graminoid Milium effusum, occurring in shady deciduous forests, was matched with periods of high light influx through the tree canopy in spring and autumn. Fertile shoots grew faster than sterile shoots. Leaves on flowering shoots were fully developed when the budbreak started on the trees, whereas nonflowering shoots had fully developed leaves when the tree canopy closed. Leaf concentrations of N and P were high (6.1 and 0.74% respectively) in spring but decreased as the leaves expanded. Maximum pool sizes of N and P in whole tillers were reached about one month after the onset of spring growth, whereas maximum spring pools of K, Mg, and Ca were timed with peak biomass about one month later. The leaves lost nutrients during summer when no growth took place. Since leaching losses were negligible, nutrients were probably allocated from the leaves to support root growth. Autumn reallocation to winter stores was low. The pattern of growth and nutrient use suggests that light availability, i.e., the resource in relatively lowest supply, regulates the investment of the resource in highest supply, i.e., nutrients. This is consistent with previously reported observations on Eriophorum vaginatum, a graminoid of low nutrient — high light environments. This species utilizes nutrients efficiently at the expense of less efficient acquisition of carbon. We suggest that selection for efficient utilization of the resource in lowest relative supply has been a strong driving force behind the physiological adaptation of both species to their environments.     

Initial Stages of Tundra Shrub Litter Decomposition May Be Accelerated by Deeper Winter Snow But Slowed Down by Spring Warming

The Arctic climate is projected to change during the coming century, with expected higher air temperatures and increased winter snowfall. These climatic changes might alter litter decomposition rates, which in turn could affect carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling rates in tundra ecosystems. However, little is known of seasonal climate change effects on plant litter decomposition rates and N dynamics, hampering predictions of future arctic vegetation composition and the tundra C balance. We tested the effects of snow addition (snow fences), warming (open top chambers), and shrub removal (clipping), using a full-factorial experiment, on mass loss and N dynamics of two shrub tissue types with contrasting quality: deciduous shrub leaf litter (Salix glauca) and evergreen shrub shoots (Cassiope tetragona). We performed a 10.5-month decomposition experiment in a low-arctic shrub tundra heath in West-Greenland. Field incubations started in late fall, with harvests made after 249, 273, and 319 days of field incubation during early spring, summer and fall of the next year, respectively. We observed a positive effect of deeper snow on winter mass loss which is considered a result of observed higher soil winter temperatures and corresponding increased winter microbial litter decomposition in deep-snow plots. In contrast, warming reduced litter mass loss during spring, possibly because the dry spring conditions might have dried out the litter layer and thereby limited microbial litter decomposition. Shrub removal had a small positive effect on litter mass loss for C. tetragona during summer, but not for S. glauca. Nitrogen dynamics in decomposing leaves and shoots were not affected by the treatments but did show differences in temporal patterns between tissue types: there was a net immobilization of N by C. tetragona shoots after the winter incubation, while S. glauca leaf N-pools were unaltered over time. Our results support the widely hypothesized positive linkage between winter snow depth and litter decomposition rates in tundra ecosystems, but our results do not reveal changes in N dynamics during initial decomposition stages. Our study also shows contrasting impacts of spring warming and snow addition on shrub decomposition rates that might have important consequences for plant community composition and vegetation-climate feedbacks in rapidly changing tundra ecosystems.     

施用不同氮、磷、钾肥和有机肥对‘红阳’猕猴桃生长及产量的影响

为阐明施肥与猕猴桃产量、品质的关系,优化施肥配方,以猕猴桃品种‘红阳’(Actinidia chinensis‘Hongyang’)为试验材料,采用田间小区栽培方法研究了不同施肥处理对‘红阳’植株生长、叶片光合特性及果实产量的影响。研究结果显示,N、P、K任何一种元素的缺乏均会影响植株生长并降低果实产量;均衡施用N、P、K肥可以提高叶片光合作用,促进植株新梢和主干茎的生长,从而提高果实产量;如果N和K比例过大则会降低叶片气孔导度、胞间CO2浓度和净光合速率,从而减少果实产量;增施有机肥对提高果实产量效果不显著,但可以提高单果重,过量施用有机肥则会显著降低产量。本研究结果表明,均衡施用N、P、K并配施一定的有机肥(N 250 g/株、P2O5250 g/株、K2O 250 g/株、有机肥6 kg/株)能显著促进植株的生长并提高果实产量。氮、磷、钾肥与有机肥配合施用是提高猕猴桃果园养分管理的有效方法。
