草丘微地貌对苔草泥炭沼泽枯落物分解的影响

苔草沼泽在北半球高纬度地区广泛分布,草丘微地貌是苔草泥炭沼泽普遍存在的外貌特征,草丘和丘间环境差异可能会引起枯落物分解的异质性。为此,选择长白山区敦化东明林场典型臌囊苔草(Carex schmidtii)沼泽为研究对象,采用分解袋法对臌囊苔草枯落物在草丘及丘间位置的分解差异及其影响因素进行研究。结果表明:草丘和丘间枯落物干重损失具有相似的变化趋势,但丘间枯落物总干重损失(40.20%±4.22%)和分解速率(0.0021±0.0001)d~(-1)均高于草丘枯落物总干重损失(21.70%±2.25%)和分解速率(0.0012±0.0001)d~(-1),且丘间枯落物分解速率具有较大的波动性;草丘和丘间粗孔分解袋枯落物干重损失分别比对应位置的细孔分解袋枯落物干重损失高(1.81%±0.32%)和(2.91%±0.30%),在草丘和丘间枯落物分解速率上,微生物贡献分别是土壤动物贡献的6.37倍和5.65倍,而丘间土壤动物和微生物对枯落物分解速率的贡献分别是草丘的1.79倍和1.59倍。相关分析显示,草丘丘间枯落物干重损失与相应位置积温呈显著正相关(P0.05),而枯落物干重损失与草丘水位呈显著负相关(P0.05),与丘间水位呈显著正相关(P0.05)。本研究表明,在草丘微地貌格局下,不同的水热组合影响土壤动物和土壤微生物分布及群落组成,从而对枯落物分解产生影响,而其丘间不稳定的水分环境则是影响苔草泥炭沼泽枯落物分解的关键环境因子。     

人工恢复与自然恢复模式下苔草草丘生态特征比较

本研究以哈尔滨太阳岛草丘湿地为对象,对比了人工恢复与自然恢复下苔草草丘个体和种群的生态特征,并分析其与环境因子的关系.结果表明:苔草植株生长随时间呈现先增加后降低的变化趋势(5—8月),初期(5—6月)生长迅速,6月达到峰值.人工恢复和自然恢复模式下,苔草草丘个体和种群特征差异显著:自然恢复下苔草叶面积、叶宽、单株鲜重、单株干重、丘墩高度、直径、丘顶面积、丘墩表面积、丘墩体积等苔草草丘个体特征均显著高于人工恢复,人工恢复下苔草草丘密度、盖度、生物量等种群特征显著高于自然恢复,物种多样性无显著差异.土壤含水量、水深、草丘密度、丘间距离是导致2种恢复模式下苔草草丘生长差异的主要因素,自然恢复区土壤含水量、水深、间距均显著高于人工恢复区,对草丘个体的形成和发育具有促进作用,人工恢复区高移栽密度是导致草丘密度、盖度、生物量高于自然恢复区的主要因素.建议未来开展苔草草丘湿地恢复和保护时,应参考自然恢复湿地中草丘的分布特点,适当调整丘间距离(54.22～117.89 cm)和种群密度(1.9～3.1 墩·m^-2),同时采取干旱区春季适当补水措施,保持适宜的土壤含水量和水深,促进苔草草丘的生长发育和快速恢复,维持其种群长期健康稳定.     

草原鼢鼠土丘与不同根系类型植物的关系

本研究于2013-2015年的5月（春季）和9月（秋季）,在锡林浩特市南部白银库伦牧场的天然草地监测草原鼢鼠（Myospalax aspalax）生境中植被情况及新旧土丘数量,采用偏冗余分析的方法研究了新旧土丘数量与植物地上生物量的干重、株丛数和物种数之间的关系。结果表明：5月鼢鼠新土丘数量与轴根型、根蘖型植物呈正相关且具有较大解释量。鼢鼠旧土丘数量与疏丛型植物呈正相关,与轴根型和根蘖型植物呈负相关,且具有较大解释量。9月鼢鼠新土丘数量与疏丛型、密丛型和根蘖型植物呈正相关且解释量较大。鼢鼠旧土丘与疏丛型、密丛型和根蘖型植物呈正相关且解释量较大。这些结果说明草原鼢鼠的造丘活动和微栖息地选择和食物资源有关,存在季节差异。轴根型和根蘖型植物对鼢鼠的春季活动有重要影响;疏丛型、密丛型和根蘖型植物对鼢鼠的秋季活动有重要影响。     

放牧干扰下若尔盖高原沼泽湿地植被种类组成及演替模式

以若尔盖高原退化沼泽植被为研究对象,应用多重比较、双因素方差分析、物种累积曲线、PCA排序、方差分解等方法分析了不同放牧压力、放牧季节下物种丰富度、多度、生活型组成、群落演替的变化。结果表明:不同放牧季节物种丰富度格局不尽相同,其中6、9、10月在各牧压梯度间无显著差异,7、8月均以极重度和极度阶段(中生草甸)的最高,原生沼泽的最低。在物种累积速率上,沿牧压梯度以极重度和极度阶段的最高,沿放牧季节以7、8月最高;双因素方差分析结果进一步表明物种丰富度与放牧季节无显著关系,但与放牧压力关系显著。放牧压力和放牧季节共解释了物种多度总方差的47.6%,其中放牧压力解释了50.1%,放牧季节以及二者方差交集均为负值;沿牧压梯度,沼泽植被逆向演替模式倾向于沼泽→草甸,沼泽化草甸阶段不明显,但是演替方向未发生变化,建群种替代规律为:乌拉草→木里苔草→栗褐苔草,生活型组成中直立型植物比例较少,莲座型和匍匐型植物增加。总之,放牧季节对物种丰富度无显著影响,但在一定程度上改变了其牧压梯度格局,降低了物种累积速率。放牧压力改变了群落物种丰富度、生活型组成和演替模式,但放牧可能仅为沼泽植物群落物种多样性格局和演替的驱动力之一。     

垫状植物囊种草对群落物种多样性的影响

在甘肃盐池湾国家级自然保护区内海拔4137 m处,选择典型的囊种草垫状植被设置研究样地,研究了垫状植物囊种草对群落物种组成和群落物种多样性的影响,并且定量的研究了囊种草对群落物种丰富度的影响能力和维持潜力。研究结果表明:囊种草为群落中增加了新的植物种类,并且提高了部分生境一般种的多度;囊种草的出现提高了群落物种密度和物种丰富度,进而提高了群落物种多样性;囊种草斑块的增加将会引起景观水平物种丰富度的增加,表明囊种草具有为群落中引入新的植物种类进而提高群落物种丰富度的能力;在景观水平,囊种草所创造的生境多样性则成为一种保障,可以维持景观中物种丰富度从而降低物种损失的风险,表明囊种草具有较高的群落物种丰富度维持潜力。     

三江平原七星河流域湿地植物多样性及影响因素

湿地植物多样性是生物多样性的重要组成部分,在维护湿地生态功能和湿地生态系统稳定性方面发挥着极其重要的作用。为研究七星河流域湿地植物的多样性,选择七星河流域的七星河国家级自然保护区和三环泡国家级自然保护区,分别于2016年和2017年,对该流域内湿地植物进行了实地植物样方调查,共计调查194个样方,利用TWINSPAN进行了样方群落划分,并采用广义线性模型分析了影响植物多样性的影响因素。结果表明七星河流域湿地植物共有532种,隶属于80科,212属,主要群落类型为湿苔草-隐果苔草群丛;狭叶甜茅群丛;萍蓬草-狐尾藻群丛;漂筏苔草群丛;小叶章-臌囊苔草群丛;甜茅-芦苇群丛;芦苇群丛;貉藻群丛等,狭叶甜茅群丛物种多样性较单一,芦苇群丛的物种多样性较丰富。广义线性模型分析结果得出物种多样性与植被密度密切相关,植被密度越大,物种的多样性越小。为七星河流域物种多样性研究提供了重要的基础数据。     

Plant functional groups mediate effects of climate and soil factors on species richness and community biomass in grasslands of Mongolian Plateau

植物功能群在调控气候和土壤因子对蒙古高原草原群落物种丰富度和生物量影响中的作用 植物功能群组成主要受环境因素驱动,同时植物功能群组成也是影响草地生物多样性和生产力的主要因素之一。因此,理解植物功能群在调控环境因素对生态系统功能和生物多样性影响中可能发挥的作用至关重要。通过对蒙古高原草原65个样点的植物生物量和物种丰富度的调查,将157种多年生草本植物分为两种植物功能群(即禾草和杂类草)。通过随机森林模型和普通最小二乘回归,确定与植物功能群物种丰富度和地上生物量显著相关的环境因素(即干燥度、土壤总氮和pH),并利用结构方程模型探讨筛选出的环境因素与群落物种丰富度和生物量间的关系,以及植物功能群在驱动这种关系中发挥的作用。干燥度与禾草、杂类草以及整个群落的地上生物量和物种丰富度均呈显著的单峰关系。所有的物种丰富度和生物量指标均与土壤总氮和pH值显著相关。禾草在维持蒙古高原草原生态系统群落生物量中起着关键作用,并受气候因素的直接影响。而杂类草物种丰富度决定了群落总丰富度,并受到土壤因素直接的调控。因此,群落组成在调控环境因素对群落生物量和植物多样性的影响中起着关键作用。     

三江平原典型沼泽湿地螺类组成生态指示

螺类作为湿地的重要生物类群,对环境变化响应敏感,这使得螺类成为潜在的环境指示物种。为了研究中国东北沼泽湿地不同类型湿地螺类群落结构的差异以及螺类作为不同类型湿地指示物种的可能,在2014年9月和2015年5月对小叶章沼泽化草甸湿地、臌囊苔草湿地、毛苔草湿地、漂筏苔草湿地共17个采样点进行螺类样品采集。共采集到了螺类8科13属17种4452个。研究表明,螺类以扁卷螺科Planorbidae、椎实螺科Lymnaeidae、膀胱螺科Physidae为主;4种不同类型湿地螺的种类组成不同,这些螺类的种类组成与不同类型湿地的水深、植物类型组成等湿地特征是相对应。螺类的生物多样性指数(ShannonWiener指数和Marglef指数)在不同类型湿地之间也存在一定差异,筛选了指示螺类6种,无褶螺是小叶章沼泽化草甸的指示物种,小土蜗、半球多脉扁螺和虹蛹螺是臌囊苔草湿地的指示物种,琥珀螺是毛苔草湿地的指示物种,平盘螺是漂筏苔草湿地的指示物种,这表明了螺类是沼泽湿地类型的重要指示生物。也为螺类生物多样性资源的保护、恢复和生态评价提供科学依据和资料积累。     

三江平原湿地小叶章群落沿土壤水分梯度物种组成及多样性变化

水分是影响湿地生态系统植物多样性的重要因素之一。以三江平原湿地小叶章群落为对象,研究了沿土壤水分梯度的典型草甸、沼泽化草甸和沼泽3种生境中群落物种组成及多样性特征。结果表明,3种生境均以小叶章占优势,但是伴生物种组成分化明显,其中,典型草甸指示种为二歧银莲花和垂梗繁缕,沼泽化草甸指示种为灰脉苔草和五脉山黧豆,沼泽指示种为漂筏苔草和毛果苔草;非度量多维尺度分析结果表明,草甸的物种组成差异更大,而沼泽和沼泽化草甸的物种组成差异较小。随土壤水分含量增加,小叶章的优势度逐渐降低,群落物种丰富度和Simpson优势度均呈逐渐降低的趋势,而Shannon-Wiener多样性与Pielou均匀度均呈逐渐上升的趋势;群落相似性系数(CJ、CS)呈现逐渐升高的趋势,二者的最大值分别出现在沼泽化草甸和沼泽,最小值分别出现在典型草甸和和沼泽化草甸,而Cody指数的变化格局呈现渐低的趋势,群落间共有物种数逐渐减少,物种替代速率降低。研究认为,三江平原小叶章湿地植物群落物种组成、Pielou均匀度、Simpson优势度和Shannon-Wiener多样性的变化格局与水分密切相关,β多样性的格局与水分联系紧密,物种丰富度的变化格局与水分无相关性,可能与物种自身的生物学特性以及其它环境因子有关,尚需进一步探讨。     

苔草草丘恢复湿地的景观格局变化——以哈尔滨太阳岛为例

湿地景观变化是湿地生态学领域研究的重要内容。湿地景观要素在不同时间和空间的变化过程研究是揭示湿地演变规律,开展生态恢复实践的重要科学基础。以哈尔滨太阳岛苔草草丘恢复湿地为例,采用野外调查与3S技术相结合的方法,选取草丘面积、斑块形状特征、草丘数量及形态特征等指标,探究草丘湿地恢复过程中的景观变化,为开展湿地恢复提供了重要的科学依据。结果表明:经过8年的恢复,苔草草丘景观变化明显。草丘数量增多,丘墩高度、直径、植株高度、冠幅显著增加(P0.05);湿地恢复后,苔草群落向外扩展722 m~2,苔草草丘总面积达2222 m~2,扩展率为48.13%;在湿地微地貌和水文条件等因素的综合作用下,草丘群落扩展方向具有一定规律性,斑块边界和质心分别向西南方向扩展了29.91 m和迁移了5.9 m,扩展度和曲线边界比重不断增加,斑块形状和边界趋于复杂,景观空间异质性增强;利用根茎克隆繁殖结合水位调控可实现苔草草丘的快速恢复。     

Conservation of vascular plants in single large and several small mires: species richness, rarity and taxonomic diversity

1. This study on vascular plant species of boreal spruce and pine mires concentrated on two geometrical principles: whether single large or several small (SLOSS) reserves contain more species and whether patch shape should be as nearly circular as possible.
2. SLOSS and patch shape have usually been tested by using species richness. Only a few studies have taken the rarity of species into account, and taxonomic diversity has never been used. In our study, all three of these factors were used.
3. Our results showed that the number of species was not related to the spruce mire size, but it increased in relation to the pine mire size. In contrast, the rarity score increased in relation to the area of spruce mires, but it was not related to the area of pine mires. Taxonomic diversity was not related to size in the case of spruce mires, but it increased with pine mires.
4. The SLOSS comparison showed that several small mires contained more vascular plant species than a large one of equal size. Several small mires also had higher rarity scores and taxonomic diversity than a single large mire. The number of species, rarity score and taxonomic diversity increased in relation to the number of small mires in a group. The same results were obtained with both spruce and pine mires.
5. Species richness, rarity score and taxonomic diversity were not related to mire shape. The results did not depend on the mire type.     

Impact of rewetting on the vegetation of a cut‐away peatland

Abstract. We tested whether rewetting improved environmental conditions during peatland restoration and promoted colonization and development of mire vegetation. Vegetation change was monitored in a cut‐away peatland one year before, and four years after, rewetting. Colonizers before rewetting were perennials, mostly typical of hummocks or bare peat surfaces. The main variation in vegetation was related to variation in the amounts of major nutrients and water table level. The wettest site with the highest nutrient level had the highest total vegetation cover and diversity, as well as some species typical of wet minerotrophic mires. Raising the water table level above, or close to, the soil surface promoted development of wet minerotrophic vegetation. Diversity initially decreased because of the disappearance of hummock vegetation but started to recover in the third year. Eriophorum vaginatum and Carex rostrata were both favoured, and bryophytes typical of wet habitats colonized the site. Moderate rewetting promoted the development of Eriophorum vaginatum seedlings and an increase in the cover of tussocks. Bryophytes typical of disturbed peat surfaces spread. In the control site development continued slowly towards closed hummock vegetation. The study showed that raising the water level to, or above, soil surface promotes conditions wet enough for a rapid succession towards closed mire vegetation.     

四种野生苔草属植物的耐寒性评价

以采自泰山的白颖苔草、披针叶苔草、青绿苔草和低矮苔草为材料,观察越冬期间田间适应性并测定低温胁迫下抗寒相关的生理指标,计算半致死温度(LT₅₀),利用模糊隶属函数法对耐寒性进行综合评价.结果表明: 4种野生苔草属植物均能安全越冬,且翌春恢复生长良好,年绿期达到260～310 d,越冬期间枯叶率为12%～95%;LT₅₀为-18.65～-11.74 ℃.随着低温胁迫的加剧,4种苔草的丙二醛(MDA)含量、游离脯氨酸(Pro)和可溶性蛋白含量总体呈先上升后下降的趋势,可溶性糖含量呈上升趋势.除披针叶苔草表现为整体呈下降趋势外,其他3种苔草的超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性均呈先上升后下降的趋势.耐寒性相对较弱的白颖苔草较早地积累MDA、Pro和可溶性糖.可溶性蛋白含量在低温处理后期达到最大值,且苔草的耐寒性越强其峰值越小.在低温处理初期披针叶苔草SOD活性显著高于其他3种苔草.4种苔草属植物的耐寒性强弱为:披针叶苔草>青绿苔草>低矮苔草>白颖苔草.

Paniceae）27种及4变种（东亚14种4变种,北美13种）小坚果形态与微形态特征进行比较观察。结果表明：（1）所有材料小坚果的形状为倒卵球形和钝三棱状,组内很一致,长度为1.53~3.59 mm,同种不同居群个体差异不显著（P>0.05）。（2）表皮细胞一般为五至七边形,偶有四边形或八边形,丝柄薹草（C. rouyana）不同个体间有变异;垂周璧式样直或微波状;硅质台平,偶有凹或略凸,具1个中心体,C. filipes var. kuzakaiensis 和C. filipes var. tremula中偶见2个中心体,无卫星体,这些性状种内稳定。（3）利用表皮细胞形状、硅质台凹凸情况和中心体个数对于区分近似种具有价值,如白马薹草（C. baimaensis）和线柄薹草（C. filipes）,且可以区分一些种下等级,如线柄薹草及其变种var. kuzakaiensis、var. oligostachys和var. tremula。（4）sect. Paniceae s.s.和sect. Laxiflorae小坚果形态和微形态上具有较高一致性,具有重要分类学意义。     

Trait evolution rates shape continental patterns of species richness in North America's most diverse angiosperm genus (Carex,Cyperaceae)

Ecological opportunity has been associated with increases in diversification rates across the tree of life. Under an ecological diversification model, the emergence of novel environments is hypothesized to promote morpho- and ecospace evolution. Whether this model holds at the clade level within the most species-rich angiosperm genus found in North America (Carex, Cyperaceae) is yet to be tested. Recent works demonstrate a temporal coupling of climate cooling and widespread colonization of Carex in North America, implicating ecological diversification. In addition, research has consistently found asymmetric patterns of lineage-level diversification in the genus. Why does variation in clade sizes exist in the genus? Is ecological diversification involved? In this study, we tested whether rates of morphological and ecological trait evolution are correlated with clade-level species richness in Carex of North America north of Mexico. We constructed a phylogeny of 477 species—an almost complete regional sample. We estimated rates of evolution of morphological traits, habitat, and climatic niche and assessed whether differences in rates of evolution correlate with species richness differences in replicate non-nested sister clades. Our work demonstrates significant positive correlations between climatic niche rates, habitat and reproductive morphological evolution, and species richness. This coupling of trait and niche evolution and species richness in a diverse, continental clade sample strongly suggests that the ability of clades to explore niche and functional space has shaped disparities in richness and functional diversity across the North American flora region. Our findings highlight the importance of the evolutionary history of trait and niche evolution in shaping continental and regional floras.     

Combining population genomics and ecological niche modeling to assess taxon limits between Carex jemtlandica and C. lepidocarpa

Carex section Ceratocystis (Cyperaceae) is a group of recently evolved plant species, in which hybridization is frequent, introgression is documented, taxonomy is complex, and morphological boundaries are vague. Within this section, a unified taxonomic treatment of the Carex jemtlandica–Carex lepidocarpa species complex does not exist, and Norway may currently be the sole country accepting species rank for both. Carex jemtlandica is mainly confined to Fennoscandia and is thus a Fennoscandian conservation responsibility. This motivated us to test the principal hypothesis that both C. jemtlandica and C. lepidocarpa represent evolutionary significant units, and that both deserve their current recognition at species level. We investigated their evolutionary distinctiveness in Norway,using restriction site-associated DNA sequencing and ecological niche modeling. Our genomic results reveal two genetic clusters, largely corresponding to C. jemtlandica and C. lepidocarpa that also remain distinct in sympatry, despite clear indications of ongoing hybridization and introgression. The ecological niche modeling suggests that they occupy different environmental niches. Jointly, our results clearly show that C. jemtlandica and C. lepidocarpa represent separately evolving entities that should qualify recognition as evolutionary significant units. Given the high level of introgression compared to other hybridizing species pairs in Carex we recommend treating C. jemtlandica as a subspecies of C. lepidocarpa.

Testing the species pool hypothesis for mire vegetation: exploring the influence of pH specialists and habitat history

The Evolutionary species pool hypothesis (ESPH) predicts that historically more common habitats will be richer in species because they have had greater opportunity for the evolution of suitably adapted species. We explored the relationship between mire species richness and pH, an important environmental variable in mires, in two regions that differ in habitat pH distribution: the West Carpathians and Bulgaria. Mire habitats in both the West Carpathians and Bulgaria demonstrate support for the ESPH prediction that habitats with more common pH values host more species. We also explored the influence of habitat history by examining the distribution of generalists and specialists along gradients of habitat pH, using extensive community-level vegetation data from European mires in these two regions. We found a striking pattern with the distribution of pH-specialists having three distinct peaks in both regions, whereas the total species pool peaked in near neutral pH habitats in both regions. Because the peaks in specialist richness do not correspond to regional pH distribution patterns, we hypothesize that historical explanations may be important, and that habitats currently rich in pH-specialists may have historically acted as pleniglacial refugia for many mire species. Our findings support the general predictions of the ESPH, but further suggest that historical processes such as patterns of glacial refugia, may significantly influence contemporary species distributions and the diversity of plant species in mire habitats.
