煤粉尘沉降对鄂尔多斯高原优势植物羊柴幼苗生长的影响

随着鄂尔多斯煤矿开采的日益加剧,开采和运输过程中产生的煤粉尘沉降已成为影响当地植物生长的一个重要影响因子。通过近自然生境条件下的控制实验,以鄂尔多斯高原优势植物羊柴(Hedysarum laeve)为研究对象,探究不同梯度煤粉尘沉降量(0—3.5 mg/cm2)对其幼苗的光合生理特性和生长的影响。研究结果表明,随着煤粉尘沉降量的增加,羊柴叶片的气孔导度(Gs)、胞间二氧化碳浓度(Ci)、叶片水分饱和水汽压亏缺(Vpdl)等因子发生了不同程度的改变,导致净光合速率(Pn)和蒸腾速率(Tr)降低,使得幼苗的植株高度、叶片数、地上和地下生物量降低。因而,积累到一定程度的煤粉尘颗粒通过影响叶片气孔的水汽交换过程和降低叶片表面的光照强度,影响了叶片的光合生理过程,从而抑制了羊柴幼苗的生长。     

28种园林植物对大气CO2浓度增加的生理生态反应

通过对28种园林植物在不同CO2浓度水平下的气体交换参数的观测,分析了净光合速率、气孔导度、蒸腾速率和水分利用效率等生理生态指标的变化趋势与规律.结果表明,所测植物净光合速率和水分利用效率随CO2浓度升高而线性增加,但不同植物种类对高CO2浓度的反应存在较大差异.气孔导度和蒸腾速率与CO2浓度呈线性负相关关系.当CO2浓度倍增(350～700 μmol·mol-1)时,28种园林植物净光合速率平均提高31.2%,气孔导度降低16.5%,蒸腾速率下降11.7%,而水分利用效率则提高了49.2%.不同光合途径的植物净光合速率和水分利用效率受CO2浓度增加的影响程度为C3植物较大,C4植物较小, CAM植物介于两者之间.对不同生活型植物而言,影响程度则为草本C3植物较大,乔木C3植物较小,灌木C3植物居于两者之间.

5种木本植物对NaHCO_3胁迫的光合生理响应

以5个抗盐性不同的树种白榆、新疆枸杞、南蛇藤、小叶丁香、樟子松的一年生实生苗为实验材料,研究光合生理参数作为植物抗盐性评价指标的有效性。结果表明:5个树种的抗盐性由强到弱依次为新疆枸杞、白榆、南蛇藤、小叶丁香、樟子松。5个树种对NaHCO_3胁迫有一致的光合响应,即净光合速率(P_n)、蒸腾速率(T_r)、气孔导度(G_s)、细胞间隙CO_2浓度(C_i)和气孔限制值(L_s)等光合参数均呈下降趋势。与对照相比,重度胁迫下白榆、新疆枸杞、南蛇藤、小叶丁香、樟子松P_n分别下降33.97%、31.40%、54.97%、71.18%和72.25%,5个树种苗木P_n下降幅度顺序为樟子松小叶丁香南蛇藤白榆新疆枸杞;重度胁迫下5个树种苗木T_r分别比对照下降36.18%、48.49%、46.07%、53.55%和71.82%,5个树种苗木T_r下降幅度顺序为樟子松小叶丁香新疆枸杞南蛇藤白榆;重度胁迫下5个树种苗木G_s分别比对照下降58.73%、72.16%、19.82%、48.22%和74.15%,5个树种苗木G_s下降幅度顺序为樟子松新疆枸杞白榆小叶丁香南蛇藤。研究表明,在低NaHCO_3胁迫下白榆和新疆枸杞叶片光合下降的原因是气孔限制,在高NaHCO_3胁迫时,则为非气孔限制;南蛇藤和樟子松为气孔限制因素;小叶丁香为非气孔因素。在NaHCO_3胁迫条件下,抗性较强的白榆和新疆枸杞净光合速率降低的程度明显小于抗性较弱的小叶丁香和樟子松。     

截干对杉木种子园老龄化母树光合特性的影响

为探究截干与否对杉木老龄化母树光合特性的影响,以杉木种子园老龄化截干与未截干母树为试验对象使用LI 6400XT便携式光合测定系统对其净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)、蒸腾速率(Tr)和水分利用效率进行了比较研究。结果表明:与未截干母树相比,截干可极显著提高母树净光合速率、气孔导度、蒸腾速率以及水分利用效率,其中净光合速率提高了0.3~5.6倍,叶片气孔导度提高了0.4~2.7倍,蒸腾速率提高了0.2~2.1倍,水分利用效率提高了0.02~2.6倍。枝条朝向对光合特性有显著影响,总体表现为东面枝叶的净光合速率、叶片气孔导度和蒸腾速率大于南面和西面。     

黄土高原森林草原区6种植物光合特性研究

 对黄土高原森林草原区6种不同植物的生理生态学特性进行了一个生长季的野外观测。测定了2002年生长季早、中、晚期植物叶片的光合、蒸腾速率及相应的微气象因子和土壤水分的含量。在此基础上,采用机理性生理生态学模型对黄土高原森林草原区6种植物净光合速率和气孔导度与环境因子的关系进行了分析,净光合速率模型和气孔导度模型分别能够解释57%～79% 和40%～59% 生长季中净光合速率和气孔导度的日变化。在此基础上根据拟合得到的参数计算了典型7月份天气的净光合速率的日变化。模拟的结果表明：沙棘(Hippophae rhamnoides L. subsp. sinensis Rousi)的生物化学光合能力最强,茵陈蒿（Artemisia capillaris）的光呼吸速率最低,这两种植物的净光合速率高于其它植物种。刺槐（Robinia pseudoacacia）、铁杆蒿 (Artemisia gmelinii)、茵陈蒿和沙棘在午后出现的净光合速率下降主要是由气孔导度减小引起的,而苹果 (Malus pumila) 和柠条 (Caragana korshinskii)午后净光合速率的降低与叶肉细胞酶的活性降低有关。这些结论为未来的实验室测定提供了野外观测佐证。     

模拟大气硫酸铵污染对香樟幼苗生长及光合特性的影响

通过室内盆栽实验研究了大气颗粒污染物硫酸铵对香樟幼苗生长及光合特性的影响。结果表明,香樟幼苗叶片涂抹硫酸铵处理对植物生长无显著影响;低浓度硫酸铵(2 g·L^-1)提高了叶片叶绿素含量,而高浓度(4 g·L^-1)却降低了叶片叶绿素含量;与对照相比,低浓度处理的香樟叶片净光合速率、气孔导度、胞间二氧化碳浓度与蒸腾速率无显著差异;高浓度处理的香樟叶片净光合速率与蒸腾速率高于对照,而气孔导度与胞间二氧化碳浓度与对照无显著差异。机理分析表明,硫酸铵颗粒物主要通过影响叶片气孔导度来影响植物光合特性。

采煤塌陷影响下土壤含水量变化对柠条气孔导度、蒸腾与光合作用速率的影响

采煤塌陷引起的土壤环境因子的变化对矿区植物生长的影响越来越受到人们的关注,气孔导度、蒸腾与光合作用作为环境变化响应的敏感因子,研究植物气孔导度、蒸腾与光合作用的变化是揭示荒漠矿区自然环境变化及其规律的重要手段之一。研究采煤塌陷条件下植物光合生理的变化是探究煤炭开采对植物叶片水分蒸腾散失和CO_2同化速率影响的关键环节,是探讨采煤塌陷影响下植物能量与水分交换动态的基础,而采煤矿区植物叶片气孔导度、蒸腾与光合作用速率对采煤塌陷影响下土壤含水量变化的响应如何尚不清楚。选取神东煤田大柳塔矿区52302工作面为实验场地,以生态修复物种柠条为研究对象,对采煤塌陷区和对照区柠条叶片气孔导度、蒸腾和光合作用速率以及土壤体积含水量进行监测,分析了采煤塌陷条件下土壤含水量的变化以及其对柠条叶片气孔导度、蒸腾与光合作用速率的影响。结果显示:(1)煤炭井工开采在地表形成大量裂缝,破坏了土体结构,潜水位埋深降低,土壤含水量均低于沉陷初期,相对于对照区,硬梁和风沙塌陷区土壤含水量分别降低了18.61%、21.12%;(2)柠条叶片气孔导度、蒸腾和光合作用速率均与土壤含水量呈正相关关系;煤炭开采沉陷增加了地表水分散失,加剧了土壤水分胁迫程度,为了减少蒸腾导致的水分散失,柠条叶片气孔阻力增加,从而气孔导度降低,阻碍了光合作用CO_2的供应,从而导致柠条叶片光合作用速率的降低,蒸腾速率也显著降低。     

Gas Exchange and Water Use Efficiency of Three Native Tree Species in Hunshandak Sandland of China

Only three tree species, i.e. Ulmus pumila, Malus baccata, and Prunus padus, are distributed in Hunshandak Sandland (HS) in Inner Mongolia, China. Field studies of gas exchange and chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence of these three tree species were conducted in three arid periods of growth season 2002. Net photosynthetic rate (P _N), transpiration rate (E), stomatal conductance (g _s), and F_v/F_m of U. pumila were higher than in M. baccata and P. padus, especially in the midday. Hence M. baccata and P. padus were more sensitive to high temperature and irradiance than U. pumila in HS. This may be a reason for wide distribution of U. pumila in HS. M. baccata and P. padus are adapted to the back slope of fixed dune, because the micro-habitat is relatively cool and less irradiated than the slope facing sun. Water use efficiency (WUE) of U. pumila was lower than that of M. baccata and P. padus, and thus U. pumila does not form forests in this region, because the soil is dry. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Mines over matter: Effects of foliar particulate matter on the herbivorous insect,Helicoverpa armigera

Coalmines, which are major contributors of particulate matter in the form of coal dust, are expanding globally into rural environments. However, ecological effects on organisms interacting with coal‐dusted foliage in mining landscapes are unknown. We tested how the behaviour, development and survival of a polyphageous insect herbivore, Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is affected by consuming tomato leaves Lycopersicon esculentum laden with coal dust. We tested (a) feeding site establishment preference of neonates, (b) feeding behaviour and leaf consumption of late‐instar larvae, (c) survival of neonates and (d) survival and development of late‐instar larvae. We found that coal dust consumption increased the mortality of late‐instar larvae but did not influence their development. Despite long‐term implications for survival, late‐instar larvae did not adjust their feeding behaviour or the amount of leaf material consumed in response to foliar coal dust. Contrastingly, when neonate H. armigera were given a choice, they avoided establishing themselves on the coal‐dusted adaxial surface of leaves. Neonate mortality was 99% within 7 days, with no effect of coal dust. Our study provides the first data on the impact of coal dust on an insect herbivore. This has implications for ecological interactions in landscapes adjoining coalmines.     

Effects of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria application on soil phosphorus availability in coal mining subsidence area in Shanxi

The effect of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) application on phosphorus (P) availability in reclaimed soil in coal mining subsidence region was investigated. Seven treatments were carried out including control, chicken manure (CM), PSB, PSB + tricalcium phosphate (TCP), CM?+?TCP, PSB?+?ground phosphate rock (GPR) and CM?+?GPR. The results showed soil Olsen-P concentration and phosphatase level as well as the yield of pakchoi (Brassica chinensis L.) were significantly higher in PSB application treatments compared to the corresponding CM application treatments. Soil phosphatase, invertase and urease contents were increased most significantly in PSB treatment, 1.18-, 1.31- and 2.32-fold higher than those in the control, respectively. Soil Ca₂-P, Ca₈-P, Fe-P and Al-P concentrations exhibited the greatest increases in PSB?+?TCP treatment, while occluded-P showed minor changes in different treatments. Application of PSB fertilizer reduced the transformation of Olsen-P to Ca₁₀-P, thus increasing P availability in reclaimed soil of coal mining subsidence area.     

Canopy and leaf gas exchange of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Haloxylon ammodendron</Emphasis> under different soil moisture regimes

In order to reveal the drought resistance and adaptation of the C₄ desert plant Haloxylon ammodendron under artificially controlled soil moisture regimes, representative plants were selected to measure canopy photosynthesis using canopy photosynthetic measurement system. The results showed that appropriate soil moisture significantly enhances the canopy and leaf photosynthetic capacity, and extremely high soil moisture is not conducive to the photosynthesis of H. ammodendron.     

Changes in photosynthetic and growth characteristics of Leymus chinensis community along the retrogression on the Songnen grassland in northeastern China

Net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, ratio of sub-stomatal to atmospheric CO₂ concentration, transpiration rate, and water use efficiency changed significantly and assimilation capacity dropped continuously along the salinization and alkalinization process in the afternoon. Assimilation capacity of L. chinensis leaf correlated negatively with the degree of salinization and alkalinization. The photosynthetic characteristics of L. chinensis determined its community formation. By changing the ratio of chlorophyll a/b in leaves and accumulating soluble saccharides in rhizome, L. chinensis could adapt to the saline-alkali condition.     

地下水埋深和季节性干旱对古尔班通古特沙漠南缘梭梭生理和生长的影响

干旱区因降水稀少,地下水成为荒漠植被重要且稳定的水源。选取古尔班通古特沙漠南缘建群种植物梭梭（Haloxylon ammodendron）为研究对象,通过测量不同地下水埋深（3.45、9.08、10.47、13.27 m和15.91 m）下生长季前期和后期同化枝生理生化指标（黎明水势、正午水势、含水量、氯离子、钠离子、脯氨酸和非结构性碳水化合物）和生长与形态特征（生长速率和胡伯尔值）,旨在认识荒漠植物对地下水埋深增加和季节性干旱的响应特征和调节适应机制。结果表明：（1）梭梭应对地下水埋深变化的生理调节对策,是采取先降低后升高黎明前同化枝水势、降低新枝形成期同化枝生长速率、增大胡伯尔值和积累非结构性碳水化合物的策略;（2）梭梭应对生长季大气干旱的生理调节对策,是通过降低黎明前同化枝水势、维持较高胡伯尔值、积累钠离子和消耗淀粉抵御季节性干旱;（3）在大气干旱与地下水水文干旱交互作用下,梭梭是采取降低正午同化枝水势、维持较高的同化枝含水量和积累可溶性糖的生态策略。综上所述,梭梭在响应地下水水文干旱和季节性大气干旱的生理特征间存在差异。研究结果丰富了水文和大气干旱对梭梭生理和生长影响的认知,可以为基于地下水资源管理的干旱区荒漠植被保育提供参考。     

Coal Dust Pollution Effects on Wetland Tree Species in Richards Bay,South Africa

In this study, the effects of coal dust on four, sympatric, wetland tree species in Richards Bay Harbour were investigated. We tested the hypothesis that leaf micromorphology influenced dust accumulation and that coal dust occluded stomata and reduced photosynthetic performance of three mangroves, Avicennia marina, Bruguiera gymnorrhiza and Rhizophora mucronata, and a mangrove associate, Hibiscus tiliaceus. To investigate leaf micromorphology, leaf blade material of the four species was prepared following standard procedures and viewed under scanning electron microscopy. Gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence measurements were made at saturating light (>1000 μmol m⁻² s⁻¹) and high temperature (>25 °C) on leaves that were either covered or uncovered with coal dust. There was no evidence of occlusion of stomata by dust. Dust accumulation in A. marina and H. tiliaceus was exacerbated by the presence of a dense mat of trichomes on the undersurface of the leaves, as well as by the sticky brine secreted by salt glands in the former species.Coal dust significantly reduced CO₂ exchange, Photosystem II (PS II) quantum yield and electron transport rate (ETR) through PS II in A. marina and H. tiliaceus but not in the other two mangroves. Reduction in photosynthetic performance was attributed to reduction in light energy incident on the photosynthetic tissues.
