测定了加拿大一枝黄花水浸提液对辣椒、番茄、萝卜、长梗白菜和小麦等五种经济作物种子萌发和生长的影响。结果表明:(1)高浓度的加拿大一枝黄花水浸提液对几种作物种子萌发和生长有明显的抑制作用,而低浓度下则对萝卜、长梗白菜和番茄的种子生长有一定的促进作用;(2)加拿大一枝黄花茎叶部分水浸提液的抑制作用要强于地下部分。     

种群密度对加拿大一枝黄花生长与繁殖的影响

加拿大一枝黄花种子可以通过风传播扩散,其地下根茎可以进行无性克隆,具有极强的繁殖能力。为探讨加拿大一枝黄花生长及繁殖规律,2006—2008年在杭州下沙国家级经济开发区内对自然生长状态下不同密度的加拿大一枝黄花定点进行调查,结果表明:90～120株.m-2的高密度状况下,植株平均株高高于其他密度,最大的差距为57.6cm;60～80株.m-2的中密度下,茎粗最大,达到10.3mm,比低密度条件下平均值粗2mm;中密度条件下加拿大一枝黄花叶片的增长数最多,平均日增长量最多达3.4片;高密度时加拿大一枝黄花最早开花,分别比中密度、低密度条件下提前约8和3d;高密度条件下种子扩散的时间最早,分别比中密度、低密度条件下提前约7和2d;中密度条件下平均每株产生种子数量最多,平均种子量达到77896颗.株-1,且种子的发芽率最高。本研究明确了自然生长状况下加拿大一枝黄花的营养及繁殖生长特性,可为加拿大一枝黄花的防控措施的制定提供科学依据。     

空心莲子草地下茎克隆繁殖特征

空心莲子草是一种原产于南美洲的苋科多年生草本植物,目前在许多地方已经成为一种危害十分严重的外来入侵植物。通过地下茎等营养器官进行无性繁殖是其主要繁殖方式。本文以空心莲子草的地下茎为实验材料,对其克隆繁殖特征进行了研究。研究结果表明:(1)地下茎的节是克隆繁殖的必要条件,节的有无决定克隆繁殖是否发生;(2)地下茎可以通过控制单位节上的出芽率来调节其克隆生长过程,从而使克隆繁殖结果更有利于整个种群的生长;(3)地下茎的粗细程度对其克隆繁殖也有显著影响。空心莲子草地下茎的单位节数与其单位节出芽率、无性系小株的高度和地上部分的节数之间存在密切联系。     

芒萁对几种杂草和农作物的生化他感作用

本文研究了芒萁植株地上部分和地下部分水提液对几种杂草和农作物的生化他感作用。证明：(1)芒萁水提液对供试杂草及白菜、萝卜的种子萌发有显著或极显著抑制作用,对全部供试幼苗的根生长和多数供试幼苗的苗高有显著抑制作用;(2)地上部分的生化他感作用强于地下部分;(3)芒萁对供试植物幼苗根生长的抑制作用强于对茎、叶的作用。     

开花期加拿大一枝黄花水浸提液对3种作物种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响

测定了入侵杂草加拿大一枝黄花（Solidago canadensis）开花期的茎、叶和花序水浸提液对辣椒(Capsicum annuum)、番茄(Lycoperiscum esculetum)、长梗白菜(Brassica chinensis var. communis)种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响。结果表明：（1）处于开花期的加拿大一枝黄花存在明显的化感作用,在25 mg·mL^-1时,对3种作物种子苗生长有促进作用,浸提液高于50 mg·mL^-1时,作物种子的萌发率和生长受到抑制,这种抑制作用随处理液浓度的提高而增强,在100 mg·mL^-1浓度处理下,甚至使作物种子失去活力;（2）加拿大一枝黄花叶和花序的水浸提液对种子萌发和生长的影响要大于其茎的浸提液;（3）在3种作物中,长梗白菜种子对加拿大一枝黄花水浸提液的敏感性最高。     

加拿大一枝黄花和一枝黄花化感作用比较研究

比较研究了入侵物种加拿大一枝黄花（Solidago canadensisL.）与本地物种一枝黄花（S.decurrens Lour.）开花期水浸提溶液对6种受试植物的种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响。结果表明：两种一枝黄花的水浸提溶液对受试植物均有化感作用,但是加拿大一枝黄花地下部分的化感作用比其地上部分强,而本地一枝黄花则相反。两种植物相比较,加拿大一枝黄花地下部分的化感作用比一枝黄花强,而地上部分则相反。本研究表明,加拿大一枝黄花地下部分具有较强的化感作用,通过化感作用对本地植物产生较强的抑制作用,从而形成单一优势群落。化感作用是其成功入侵的重要机制之一。豆科植物对加拿大一枝黄花的化感作用不敏感,因此它们可以作为生物替代控制中优先选择的物种。     

加拿大一枝黄花的生态位及其入侵对植物群落的影响

加拿大一枝黄花(Solidago canadensis)原产于北美,1935年作为花卉植物引入我国,现在是我国东南地区的一种常见外来杂草,本文调查了该种入侵地植物群落的多样性指数和该外来杂草与群落其它28种植物的生态位重叠值,并应用主坐标排序对生态位重叠关系进行了表达,结果表明：(1)入侵地植物群落的物种多样性指数随着加拿大一枝黄花种群的扩展而下降;(2)在早春,与加拿大一枝黄花生态位重叠值较大的有一年蓬(Erigeron annuus)、毛莨(Ranunculus japonicus)、山莴苣(Lactuca indica)、波斯婆婆纳(Veronica persica)、雀麦(Bromus japonicus)、马兰(Kalimeris indica)等植物;(3)加拿大一枝黄花地下根具有很强的无性繁殖能力。     

入侵植物加拿大一枝黄花对环境的生理适应性研究

 外来杂草已对我国的作物、果园、草坪、自然环境和生物多样性产生了严重危害。因此,对新传入的外来杂草开展生理生态学研究,对于预测它们在我国分布的潜在范围和生境特点有实践意义,了解新外来杂草对逆境条件的生理适应方面的知识,对它们的综合管理也是有益的。加拿大一枝黄花 (Solidago canadensis) 原产于北美,20世纪70年代作为花卉植物引入我国,现在是我国东南地区的一种常见外来杂草。本项工作测定了不同酸碱度、不同NaCl含量、不同质地的土壤、不同温度处理对加拿大一枝黄花植物体内游离脯氨酸、丙二醛、可溶性糖含量、过氧化物酶活性和过氧化物酶同工酶谱等生理指标的影响。结果表明：1）加拿大一枝黄花适生于偏酸、低NaCl浓度的土壤中;2）砂壤土、壤土比粘土更适于加拿大一枝黄花的生长;3）38 ℃的高温比5 ℃的低温对加拿大一枝黄花具有更大的损伤作用;4）加拿大一枝黄花地下根具有很强的无性繁殖能力。     

南方菟丝子对加拿大一枝黄花的寄生控制效应

以安全性较高的本土植物南方菟丝子和重要的外来入侵植物加拿大一枝黄花为材料,于温室中采用盆栽试验在湿润和半湿润条件下用南方菟丝子寄生不同生长阶段(幼苗阶段、过渡阶段和成株阶段)的加拿大一枝黄花植株,考察加拿大一枝黄花植株被寄生后的营养生长、光合生理、逆境生理等指标,探索适宜南方菟丝子寄生加拿大一枝黄花的最佳条件阈值。结果显示:(1)寄生处理与对照之间,加拿大一枝黄花株高、基径、生物量、叶绿素含量、光合速率、可溶性糖、丙二醛、脯氨酸等指标差异均显著;(2)幼苗组、过渡组被寄生加拿大一枝黄花的株高增量、基径增量、生物量、叶绿素含量、净光合速率均显著低于相应对照组,而其可溶性糖、丙二醛、脯氨酸含量均显著高于相应对照组;(3)在半湿润条件下,加拿大一枝黄花的株高、基径增量均小于湿润条件下植株,其净光合速率、叶绿素含量在幼苗组和过渡组均小于湿润条件下植株,而可溶性糖、丙二醛、脯氨酸含量在在幼苗组和过渡组均大于湿润条件下相应指标;(4)幼苗组、过渡组加拿大一枝黄花被寄生后无法正常开花结实,寄生幼苗组加拿大一枝黄花的南方菟丝子亦无法正常开花结实。研究表明,在湿润与半湿润地区,南方菟丝子可以寄生各生长阶段的加拿大一枝黄花,并对株高1.2 m以下的植株产生较强的寄生胁迫;寄生的最佳时间段为每年的4月到8月。     

乡土植物芦苇对外来入侵植物加拿大一枝黄花的抑制作用

在城市建筑荒地中设立实验样地,通过对样方植物进行实地观测,并结合实验室比叶重和生物量测算,了解和分析野外建筑荒地中自然混生条件下芦苇(Phragmites communis)和加拿大一枝黄花(Solidago canadensis)的竞争过程和结果。结果表明芦苇和加拿大一枝黄花混生群落中芦苇发展近似于单优群落,芦苇以较高的平均株高和密度抑制加拿大一枝黄花生长,混生群落逐渐趋向于芦苇单优群落。混生群落芦苇比叶重和平均每株生物量近似于单优群落,加拿大一枝黄花比叶重和平均每株生物量显著低于其单优群落,光合作用受到显著抑制。de Wit模型分析显示,混生群落中芦苇和加拿大一枝黄花相互竞争、拮抗,前者竞争攻击力高于后者,模型预测混生群落中芦苇最终将把加拿大一枝黄花从样地中排除出去。浸提液种子培养显示加拿大一枝黄花具有化感作用,在低浓度条件(12.5mg/mL)下,对自生种子发芽有促进作用,高浓度条件下出现强烈抑制,但各浓度下芦苇种子不受加拿大一枝黄花化感作用影响;芦苇种子繁殖能力相对较弱,混生样地中加拿大一枝黄花在芦苇竞争胁迫下,种子千粒重和发芽率显著上升,扩散能力增强。芦苇具有在一定区域生态控制加拿大一枝黄花的潜力。     

Reproductive biology in an invasive plant Solidago canadensis

Solidago canadensis,a perennial Compositae plant originating from North America,was introduced into China as a horticultural plant in 1935.Under natural conditions,S.canadensis allocates large amounts of energy to sexual reproduction and produces many seeds,which reflects an r-strategy with high seed number and small seed size.In addition,naturalized populations have a great capacity to grow clonally with underground stems.S.canadensis has become an invasive weed in eastern China,and has caused serious damages to agricultural production and ecosystems in several provinces in China.In order to understand the reproductive characteristics of S.canadensis and effectively control its spread,we examined soil conditions,seed characteristics,seed germination and the capacity for asexual reproduction in different plant parts.We investigated the population dispersion of S.canadensis in fixed sites for three years,and analyzed the seasonal dynamics of the morphological parameters of the underground parts and the caloric values of different organs of S.canadensis.We also compared differences in the root systems of S.canadensis and composite exotic weeds.The following results were obtained:1)Under natural conditions,the germination season of S.canadensis lasts from March to October,with a peak from April to May.Vegetative growth and asexual reproduction are especially vigorous during summer due to high temperatures and soil drought stress.On the other hand,the rainy season proves suitable for seed germination.Most S.canadensis flower between September and January,and fruit in late October.A mature plant can produce about 20000 seeds.The mean weight of 1000 seeds ranges from 0.045 g to 0.050 g,and the mean seed moisture content ranges from 60% to 80%.The light-winged seeds disperse readily by air,water,vehicles,human activity or through livestock.2)S.canadensis seeds have a wide tolerance for different values of pH,salinity and soil moisture.The mean percent germination of seeds is 30% under suitable conditions.The results of seed germination under various environmental stresses and investigation of soil conditions indicate that well-aerated,slightly acidic soils with low salinity are suitable for the growth of S.canadensis.Additionally,S.canadensis has a high tolerance for contamination by heavy metal elements including Zn,Cu and Pb,but has low accumulation coefficients for these elements.3)S.canadensis reproduces asexually via underground rhizomes and nodes on the stem base to recruit new individuals,and in plants that experience mechanical damage,this reproductive strategy is used to produce clonal shoots.The capacity for asexual reproduction among different plant parts rank as follows:underground parts＞stem-base (20 cm)＞stem-base (30 cm)＞stem-base (45 cm)＞stem.Further,with increasing mechanical damage,the quantity of shoots produced by the plant decreases.4)The morphological parameters of the root system of S.canadensis including length,surface area,volume,and average diameter are greater than for composite exotic weeds.These parameters indicate that S.canadensis has the physiological potential to widely invade China.5)The aboveground growth rate and most of the underground morphological parameters vary remarkably among the seasons,with a peak normally occurring in September.In August,a fraction of the energy in leaves and stems is allocated underground to increase fine root growth and water uptake during hot weather.Additionally,the seasonal dynamics of the underground morphological parameters and the caloric values of different organs of S.canadensis enhance its reproductive ability.Based on the results above,we conclude that S.canadensis has great invasive potential in China.We suggest that urgent measures should be taken to control its further spread,and to minimize its impact on local plant diversity.     

Reproductive biology in an invasive plant Solidago canadensis

Solidago canadensis, a perennial Compositae plant originating from North America, was introduced into China as a horticultural plant in 1935. Under natural conditions, S. canadensis allocates large amounts of energy to sexual reproduction and produces many seeds, which reflects an r-strategy with high seed number and small seed size. In addition, naturalized populations have a great capacity to grow clonally with underground stems. S. canadensis has become an invasive weed in eastern China, and has caused serious damages to agricultural production and ecosystems in several provinces in China. In order to understand the reproductive characteristics of S. canadensis and effectively control its spread, we examined soil conditions, seed characteristics, seed germination and the capacity for asexual reproduction in different plant parts. We investigated the population dispersion of S. canadensis in fixed sites for three years, and analyzed the seasonal dynamics of the morphological parameters of the underground parts and the caloric values of different organs of S. canadensis. We also compared differences in the root systems of S. canadensis and composite exotic weeds. The following results were obtained:

Allelopathic interactions between invasive plant Solidago canadensis and native plant Phragmites australis

Taking the seeds of invasive plant Solidago canadensis and native plant Phragmites australis from their mono- and co-dominant communities as allelopathic acceptors, this paper analyzed the differences in the seed germination rate and sprout length after treated with five level (12.5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg x mL(-1)) S. canadensis and P. australis extracts, aimed to understand the allelopathic interactions between the two species. The 1000-grain weight and seed germination rate under distilled water treatment of the two species in co-dominated community were greater than those in mono-dominant community. Low level (12.5 and 25 mg x mL(-1)) S. canadensi extracts slightly promoted the seed germination rates of S. canadensis in both mono- and co-dominant communities, but high level (50, 100, and 200 mg x mL(-1)) S. canadensi extracts had strong inhibition effect, especially for the S. canadensis in co-dominated community. No significant patterns were observed about the effects of P. australis extract on S. canadensis seed germination. The sprout length of S. canadensis seeds in both mono- and co-dominant communities decreased with increasing level of S. canadensis extract, but decreased in a fluctuation way with increasing level of P. australis extract. After treated with the extracts of P. australis or S. canadensis, the seed germination rate of P. australis in mono-dominant community was significantly greater than that in co-dominant community (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between these two extracts.     

晋西北丘陵风沙区不同种植年限柠条的种子形态特征

以晋西北丘陵风沙区不同种植年限(6、12、18、40和50 年)人工柠条的3种大小类型种子为对象,分析不同年限柠条种子形态特征,从繁殖策略的角度探讨人工植被恢复潜力。结果表明:人工柠条的结实量随着种植年限的增加总体呈上升趋势,在种植50年达到最大值(584粒·株^-1);种子长度、种子宽度、种子形状指数随着种植年限的增加总体呈下降趋势,在种植50年达到最小值(5.09 mm、2.76 mm、0.05);种子萌发率随种植年限的增加呈上升-下降-上升的波动变化趋势,在种植12年达到最大值(97.2%)。结实量与种子重量呈显著负相关。种子萌发率与种子重量密切相关,重量小的种子萌发率低,更易于形成持久种子库。相关分析表明,结实量与株高、地上生物量和地下生物量呈显著正相关;种子形状与新枝数呈显著负相关。这表明随着种植年限的增加,柠条繁殖对策由种植前期(6～12年)大种子较多的K策略向种植后期(18～50年)小种子逐渐为主的r策略转变,即柠条既要保证繁殖体数量,又要保证繁殖体的持久性,从而产生了数量更多的小而圆的种子。     

Biology of the polyploid geophyte Allium oleraceum (Amaryllidaceae): Variation in size,sexual and asexual reproduction and germination within and between tetra-, penta- and hexaploid cytotypes

It has been proposed that plant species cytotypes commonly exhibit altered morphology, reproduction, geographic and ecological distributions. We studied phenotypic variation in height, sexual (flowers, seeds) and asexual (aerial bulbils) reproduction in natural populations and in the conditions of a common garden of three cytotypes (2n = 4x, 5x, 6x) of the bulbous geophyte Allium oleraceum in the Czech Republic. Additionally, we compared the germination and dormancy of seeds and bulbils to determine whether propagules have different ecological roles. The pattern of morphological differentiation observed between cytotypes under natural conditions was similar to that observed under common garden conditions, suggesting that variability in morphological characteristics appears to be associated with ploidy levels. We revealed differences in size and sexual and asexual production between A. oleraceum cytotypes, but with wide overlap among cytotypes, suggesting a limited possibility of the studied traits to reliably distinguish between cytotypes. Tetraploids and pentaploids were rather similar; they were taller and produced more flowers than hexaploids, which were mostly flowerless (mean <0.7 flower/plant). All cytotypes were able to produce viable seeds, but their numbers were extremely low, usually less than 3 seeds per inflorescence; clonal reproduction via aerial bulbils dominates in all cytotypes (flower:bulbil ratio <0.5), with tetraploids producing more but lighter bulbils than other cytotypes. The seed: ovule ratio was low (<0.1) in all cytotypes, although hexaploids reached higher values than other cytotypes. Bulbils germinated better (means >80%) than seeds in all cytotypes, with pentaploid bulbils showing the highest germination (mean 90.5%). The cytotypes did not differ in seed germination (range of means 73.4%–76.3%). About 6% of seeds did not germinate but were still viable at the end of the experiment, while all non-germinated bulbils of all cytotypes had rotten away. Seeds, but not bulbils, can likely form a short-term persistent propagule soil bank. We found no evidence of a phenotypic trade-off between the production of flowers (seeds) and the production of bulbils within the inflorescence of all studied cytotypes. Together, inter-cytotypic differences in fitness-related traits cannot completely explain the different geographic and ecological distributions of cytotypes in the Czech Republic found by previous research.     

Endozoochorous dispersal of aquatic plants: does seed gut passage affect plant performance?

The ingestion of seeds by vertebrates can affect the germinability and/or germination rate of seeds. It is, however, unclear if an earlier germination as a result of ingestion affects later plant performance. For sago pondweed, Potamogeton pectinatus, the effects of seed ingestion by ducks on both germinability and germination rate have been previously reported from laboratory experiments. We performed an experiment to determine the effects of seed ingestion by ducks on germination, seedling survival, plant growth and asexual multiplication. Both at the start and end of the winter, seeds were fed to three captive shovelers (Anas clypeata) and planted outdoors in water-filled containers. Plant biomass and its allocation to vegetative parts (shoot and roots), tubers, and seeds were determined in autumn. More duck-ingested seeds than control (uningested) seeds germinated in early winter, but this difference disappeared for seeds planted in late winter, when the treatments were first stratified for 3 mo. None of the variables for measuring seedling survival and plant performance varied between treatments. Under our experimental conditions (no herbivory or competition), ingestion by ducks in early winter resulted in increased performance for seeds surviving gut passage due to enhanced seed germinability, without other costs or benefits for the seedlings.     

四种短命植物若干生物学生态学特性的研究

 卷果涩芥(Malcolmia scorpioides)、四齿芥(Tetracme quadricornis)、长齿四齿芥(T．recurvata)和狭果鹤虱(Lappula semiglabra)为新疆北部常见的四种短命植物。本文从种子生物学、发育节律、株形和植株寿命等方面研究它们与生存环境的协调与适应。     

晋西北丘陵风沙区不同林龄人工柠条生长与繁殖动态特征

晋西北丘陵风沙区生态环境脆弱,是我国风沙活动危害最为严重的地区之一。本文以晋西北典型丘陵风沙区0(撂荒地)、6、12、18、40和50年生人工柠条为研究对象,分析了不同林龄柠条的土壤含水量、地上和地下生物量、个体形态特征、生长繁殖及光合生理特征,研究0～50年长时间序列人工柠条的生长和繁殖动态特征。结果表明: 人工柠条林土壤水分变化与柠条林龄密切相关。6年生柠条的土壤水分较低,6～18年生柠条由于冠幅增加,降低了近地表的风速和太阳辐射,减少了土壤水分的蒸发,土壤水分呈上升趋势,18～50年生柠条的生物量快速积累,植物蒸腾量和根系对水分的吸收量大幅度增加,土壤水分不断降低,到50 年则下降至最低水平(11.1%);6～18年生人工柠条以地下根系生长为主,18～40年生柠条以地上部生长为主,40年生柠条的生物量维持在较高水平,冠幅和株高达到最高,生长状态达到最佳,40～50年生柠条的冠幅和株高显著降低,生长进入衰退期;柠条的光合能力(叶绿素a、b,类胡萝卜素和总叶绿素含量)随着种植年限的增加逐渐下降,尤其在18年后显著下降;柠条种子的数量和质量从6年生到40年生不断上升,40年生达到最大;与 6～12年生柠条相比,30～40年生柠条能产生更多个体质量小的种子。萌发试验表明,在相同年限,柠条的小种子比大种子的萌发速率更高,表明柠条繁殖策略有从前期(6～12年生)K策略向后期(30～40年生)r策略转化的趋势,而从50年生开始,柠条种子数量和质量显著下降,人工柠条的生长和繁殖出现退化。     

钙盐及模拟干旱互作对大花套唇苣苔种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响

苦苣苔科原大花旋蒴苣苔(former Boea clarkeana Hemsl.)为我国特有的复苏植物,在最近的修订中被并入套唇苣苔属(Damrongia Kerr),更名为大花套唇苣苔[D. clarkeana(Hemsl.)C. Puglisi]。为了探究该植物对喀斯特特殊生境的适应机制,该文以大花套唇苣苔成熟种子为材料,通过观察钙盐和模拟干旱互作试验,研究了干旱和盐胁迫共同作用对其种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响。结果表明:钙盐及模拟干旱互作时,低浓度钙盐可减轻干旱对种子萌发和幼苗生长的抑制作用,且低程度的干旱与低浓度的钙盐相互作用时反而会促进种子萌发和幼苗生长; 低钙盐低干旱复合条件对大花套唇苣苔生长的促进作用体现了该物种对喀斯特地区保水性差的石灰岩土壤基质的专适性,避免了和其他植物直接生态位的竞争。
