三峡库区消落带4种典型草本植物的生态化学计量特征

为研究三峡水库消落带优势植物的养分利用特征及其对生境的适应策略,选择消落带分布最多的4种草本植物为研究对象,分析了植物根、茎、叶的碳(C)、氮(N)、磷(P)、钾(K)含量和化学计量比特征。结果表明:(1)相比陆地系统和自然湿地系统,消落带植物具有较低的C含量和较高的N、P、K含量,C/N、C/P、C/K均较低,表明植物具有低固碳和高养分积累、低养分利用效率和高生长速率的特征;(2)4种植物的养分含量和计量比存在一定差异,其中狗牙根具有较低的N、P、K含量和较高的C/N、C/P、C/K,且变异系数均低于其他3种植物,其低养分需求、高养分利用效率以及较强的内稳性可能是其在库区分布最广的重要机制;(3)4种植物在不同器官的养分分配策略相似,均表现为叶片C含量低于根和茎,而N、P、K含量则显著高于根、茎;同时,与根、茎相比,叶片C/N、C/P、C/K较低,N/P、N/K较高,且在不同生境条件下变异系数较小,表现出相对较高的稳定性;(4)落消带植物的养分含量及计量比从全库区上游至下游的空间变异性较强,其中N、C/N、N/P变异性较大,而C、P、K变异性较小,表明植物N含量受生境变化的影响较大,加之消落带不同植物生长均受到严格的N限制,因此N供给可能是影响消落带生态系统结构的重要因子。三峡库区消落带植物生态化学计量特征具有明显的变异性和特殊性,是植物群落演替及生态系统功能变化的重要驱动因素。     

幽门螺杆菌根除治疗对慢性胃炎患者肠道菌群的影响及其与血清hsCRP水平的相关性

目的探究幽门螺杆菌(H.pylori)根除治疗对慢性胃炎患者肠道菌群的影响及其与血清超敏C反应蛋白(hsCRP)水平的相关性。方法选择2018年5月至2019年5月我院收治的87例慢性胃炎患者为研究对象,所有患者均采用枸橼酸铋钾胶囊+雷贝拉唑钠肠溶胶囊+克拉霉素片+阿莫西林克拉维酸钾片进行幽门螺杆菌根除治疗,评价所有患者治疗后临床疗效、H.pylori根除率,比较所有患者治疗前后临床症状积分,肠道肠球菌、葡萄球菌、肠杆菌、乳杆菌、双歧杆菌数量及血清hsCRP水平,采用Pearson相关分析所有患者治疗后肠道菌群数量与血清hsCRP水平的相关性。结果入选患者临床治疗有效率为95.40%,H.pylori根除率为90.80%。患者治疗后腹胀、嗳气、腹痛、纳差评分显著低于治疗前(均P<0.05)。治疗后患者肠道肠球菌、葡萄球菌数量显著高于治疗前,而肠杆菌、乳杆菌、双歧杆菌数量显著低于治疗前(均P<0.05)。患者治疗后血清hsCRP水平显著低于治疗前(P<0.05)。患者治疗后肠道肠球菌、葡萄球菌、乳杆菌、肠杆菌、双歧杆菌数量与血清hsCRP水平无显著相关性(均P>0.05)。结论H.pylori根除治疗能有效改善慢性胃炎患者临床症状,提高H.pylori根除率,降低血清hsCRP水平,但会造成患者肠道菌群失调,且肠道菌群数量与血清hsCRP水平无显著相关性。

Examining differences in phylogenetic composition enhances understanding of the phylogenetic structure of the shrub community in the northeastern Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau

Periodic climatic oscillations and species dispersal during the postglacial period are two important causes of plant assemblage and distribution on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau (QTP). To improve our understanding of the bio‐geological histories of shrub communities on the QTP, we tested two hypotheses. First, the intensity of climatic oscillations played a filtering role during community structuring. Second, species dispersal during the postglacial period contributed to the recovery of species and phylogenetic diversity and the emergence of phylogenetic overdispersion. To test these hypotheses, we investigated and compared the shrub communities in the alpine and desert habitats of the northeastern QTP. Notably, we observed higher levels of species and phylogenetic diversity in the alpine habitat than in the desert habitat, leading to phylogenetic overdispersion in the alpine shrub communities versus phylogenetic clustering in the desert shrub communities. This phylogenetic overdispersion increased with greater climate anomalies. These results suggest that (a) although climate anomalies strongly affect shrub communities, these phenomena do not act as a filter for shrub community structuring, and (b) species dispersal increases phylogenetic diversity and overdispersion in a community. Moreover, our investigation of the phylogenetic community composition revealed a larger number of plant clades in the alpine shrub communities than in the desert shrub communities, which provided insights into plant clade‐level differences in the phylogenetic structures of alpine and desert shrub communities in the northeastern QTP.     

头孢藻属中国新记录种

头孢藻属(Cephaleuros)是一类寄生性藻,在分类学上位于绿藻门石莼纲橘色藻目橘色藻科。国内对头孢藻属的研究多见于它对经济作物和观赏植物的危害,而分类学研究较缺乏。为了全面系统地了解中国头孢藻属的多样性,于2012-2018年先后在多个省份采集头孢藻属标本60余份,并对其进行了形态分类学研究。结果显示,头孢藻属中国新记录种有6种,分别为:寄生头孢藻(Cephaleuros parasiticus Karsten)、德鲁特头孢藻(Cephaleuros drouetii Thompson&Wujek)、肿毛头孢藻(Cephaleuros tumidae-setae Thompson&Wujek)、散生头孢藻(Cephaleuros diffusus Thompson&Wujek)、宽阔头孢藻(Cephaleuros expansa Thompson&Wujek)、亨宁头孢藻(Cephaleuros henningsii Schmidle),对6个种的形态学特征进行了详细描述,并提供了照片资料。     

Retraction of invasive Spartina alterniflora and its effect on the habitat loss of endangered migratory bird species and their decline in YNNR using remote sensing technology

Wetland environment and habitat loss increase the rate of biodiversity decline and affect our ecosystems. Yancheng National Nature Reserve (YNNR) is a protected area dedicated to endangered migratory bird species to overwinter. However, it currently has a record low influx of migrating birds and might therefore be losing its founding purpose. We used remote sensing technology to assess and quantify the impacts and effects of invasive halophytes Spartina alterniflora in the habitat loss and shrinkage of endangered bird wintering habitat from 2003 to 2018. We also attempted to ascertain the causes and triggers of avian population decline and its relationship with habitat loss, as these phenomena threaten and endanger species both locally and globally. Our study shows how YNNR has lost about 80% of migratory bird habitat to invasive S. alterniflora and Phragmites australis, a native halophyte plant in the reserve. Furthermore, shoreline erosion triggered the retraction of S. alterniflora and its backward growth toward Suaeda Salsa, the preferred foraging habitat for migratory birds in the zone, which is a possible cause of their decline.
