Effects of fire,mowing and nitrogen addition on root characteristics in tall-grass prairie

Abstract. Root harvests and root windows were used to study the influence of fire, mowing and nitrogen additions on root lengths, biomass, and nitrogen content in tall-grass prairie. Four years of nitrogen additions (10 g m² yr^?1) increased below-ground mass by 15 % and nitrogen concentration in that mass by 77 %. In general, live roots and rhizomes exhibited greater increases in nitrogen concentrations than detrital roots and rhizomes. After four years of treatment, live roots and rhizomes immobilized an additional 1.5 to 5 g/m² of nitrogen, depending upon specific treatment, while dead roots and rhizomes immobilized an additional 3 to 3.5 g/m². Average root growth parameters, as measured with root windows, were positively correlated with above-ground peak foliage biomass; however, the only significant correlation was between average new root growth and above-ground peak foliage biomass (r = 0.73, p ≤ 0.04). Root growth and decay, as measured by annual mean values for eight root windows over a four year interval, were insensitive to climatic and treatment effects.

Understory plant diversity is related to higher variability of vegetative mobility of coexisting species

Theoretical studies claim that if co-occurring species have very different mobilities this will result in greater small-scale species richness, but empirical evidence is still lacking. We measured horizontal vegetative mobility (VM) of 48 herbaceous understory species and estimated small-scale species richness in early and late successional boreonemoral herb-rich coniferous forests in central Estonia. VM of erosulate growth forms was significantly higher than that of hemi-rosette and rosette growth forms. Erosulate species exhibited higher mobility in young stands, but their relative and total cover was considerably higher in old stands. Local plant richness (in 1 × 1 m plots) correlated positively with the variability of VM of species in a plot—larger differences in VM resulted in a higher number of coexisting species. Our results thus suggest that species differences in VM can contribute to small-scale coexistence by providing different ways to colonise empty space.

A change from phalanx to guerrilla growth form is an effective strategy to acclimate to sedimentation in a wetland sedge species Carex brevicuspis (Cyperaceae)

The rhizomatous sedge Carex brevicuspis can produce clumping ramets from shortened rhizomes (phalanx) and spreading ramets from elongated rhizomes (guerrilla) to form a combined clonal growth form. In this paper, changes in clonal growth and biomass allocation pattern of C. brevicuspis in response to sedimentation were studied. Four sedimentation depths (0, 3, 6, and 9 cm) were applied to 48 ramets in a randomized block design. Plants were harvested after 20 weeks. With increasing sedimentation depth, the proportion of spreading ramets to total ramets increased from 19.6% in 0 cm to 92.9% in 9 cm sedimentation treatments, whereas that of clumping ramets decreased from 80.4% to 7.1%, indicating a change of clonal growth form from phalanx to guerrilla as a response to sedimentation. With increasing sedimentation depth, biomass allocation to shoots and roots did not change, but rhizome mass ratio increased from 2.7% in 0 cm to 7.2% in 9 cm sedimentation treatments, suggesting that production of long rhizomes changes biomass allocation pattern. The results show that plasticity of clonal growth forms, by which more spreading ramets are produced, is an effective strategy to avoid sedimentation stress under our experimental conditions.     

Development of a plant regeneration system based on friable embryogenic callus in the ornamental Alstroemeria

 Stem segments of seedlings from two Alstroemeria breeding lines, cultured on media supplemented with 4 mg/l 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 0.5–1.0 mg/l 6-benzylaminopurine (BA), initiated soft callus, which became compact after subculture on a medium with only 0.5 mg/l BA. Friable embryogenic calli were initiated from compact callus on a medium supplemented with 10 mg/l picloram. Proembryos developed from friable embryogenic calli via embryos into plants after subculture on medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/l BA. The proembryos formed friable embryogenic calli again after culture on medium supplemented with 10 mg/l picloram. The total time needed to regenerate a complete plantlet from friable callus was approximately 6 months. This system for the production of embryogenic material is considered to have valuable applications for genetic transformation in Alstroemeria.

木岩黄芪的繁殖特点及其与沙生适应性的关系

 木岩黄芪具有两种繁殖方式：天然下种繁殖及根状茎繁殖。本文试图从这两种繁殖方式入手,探讨木岩黄芪的沙生适应性。木岩黄芪种子繁殖效率较低,原因主要有两点：种子不易传播和影响天然下种繁殖的因素较多。大致3年生的实生植株具备根状茎繁殖能力,根状茎繁殖对战胜沙埋具有较大的作用,也具有在干旱条件下保证该植物萌发新枝从而衰而不竭的作用,这无疑是适应沙地流动性及干旱性的重要生物学特性。

毛竹地下茎对创伤的反应

研究了在中国最为广泛栽培的毛竹(Phyllostachys edulis(Cart.)H.de Lehaie)的地下茎的创伤反应。创伤后的第1天,在伤口附近没有明显反应;2d之后,创口附近可以观察到生理反应的代谢物,在后生木质部的导管中以及在基本组织细胞的胞间隙出现粘状物质,这些粘状物质具有果胶特性;创伤后1周,创口附近的筛管及基本组织中的短细胞的细胞壁变成木质化。同时,基本组织中的长细胞的内壁出现新的次生壁的沉积;2周后,创伤反应的组织与未受创伤的组织之间的区别变得更加明显;4周后,一些导管完全充满了粘性物质,但没有观察到侵填体。由于细胞壁的木质化及酚类物质的填充,筛管完全失去了功能。对创伤后6周的材料进行观察的结果表明,其创伤反应的范围不再扩展,在创伤组织与未受伤组织之间的基本组织的细胞壁变得相当厚,从而在两者之间形成一道屏障。毛竹地下茎的这种创伤反应与毛竹竹竿的创伤反应基本上是一致的,只是略有不同。
