Three mires and a small lake in the Swiss and Austrian Alps were studied palynologically at high resolution, covering the
last 1,000, 400, 50 and 1,200 years, respectively. Methodological lessons include: (1) Sub-decadal resolution in upper, little-decomposed
peat layers reveals recurrent marked fluctuations in both percentages and influx of regional tree-pollen types, reflecting
variations in pollen production rather than in plant-population sizes. (2) Intermittent, single-spectrum pollen maxima in
samples of sub-decadal resolution indicate pollen transport in clumps. This type of pollen transport may remain unrecognized
in sections with lower sampling resolution, which may then lead to inappropriate interpretation in terms of plant-population
sizes. (3) The detection of short-lived phases of human impact in decomposed peat requires sampling intervals as close as
0.2 cm. (4) PAR (pollen influx) may reflect vegetation dynamics more faithfully than percentages. Reliable PAR, however, is
difficult to achieve in Alpine mires due to past human impact on peat growth, even when complex depth–age modelling techniques
are used. Critical comparison of PAR with percentages is therefore essential. (5) Careful consideration of spatial scales
in pollen signals (local–regional and subdivisions) is essential for a realistic palaeo-ecological interpretation. Results
in terms of past human impact on vegetation are summarized as follows: (1) Trends in pollen types reflecting regional human
action are in general agreement with earlier findings for the western Swiss Alps, allowing for regional differences. (2) All
mires in the Alps investigated here and in an earlier study experienced human impact during the last millennium. The studied
small lake, lying in sub-alpine pasture, records forest dynamics at a lower elevation since a.d. 800. 相似文献

By means of double immunolabeling procedures it has been possible to demonstrate glucocorticoid receptor (GR) immunoreactivity (IR) in large numbers of various peptidergic neurons of the brain including neurons containing gastrointestinal peptides, opioid peptides, and peptides with a hypothalamic hormone function. For each peptide system, however, marked heterogeneities exist among brain regions. Thus, in the neocortex and the hippocampal formation most of the brain peptide neurons lack GR IR, while the same types of peptide neurons in the arcuate and paraventricular nucleus [e.g. neuropeptide Y (NPY), somatostatin (SRIF) and the cholecystokinin (CCK) neurons] possess strong GR IR. Furthermore, in the arcuate, parvocellular part of the paraventricular nuclei and the central amygdaloid nucleus practically all the peptidergic neurons are strongly GR IR, while in the lateral hypothalamus, mainly the neurotensin (NT) and galanin (GAL) IR neurons are GR IR. These marked differences among areas probably reflect functional differences dependent upon their participation in stress regulated circuits. All the paraventricular NT, corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF), thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and SRIF IR neurons appear to contain GR IR, while the luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) IR neurons lack GR IR, underlying the importance of glucocorticoids (GC) in controlling endocrine function. Finally, the GC may influence pain and mood control mainly via effects on enkephalin (ENK) neurons especially in the basal ganglia (mood) and on all beta-endorphin (beta-END) neurons of the arcuate nucleus, while most of the dynorphin neurons are not directly controlled by GC. 相似文献

Want a glimpse at past vegetation? Studying pollen and other plant remains, which are preserved for example in lake sediments or mires for thousands of years, allows us to document regional occurrences of plant species over radiocarbon‐dated time series. Such vegetation reconstructions derived from optical analyses of fossil samples are inherently incomplete because they only comprise taxa that contribute sufficient amounts of pollen, spores, macrofossil or other evidences. To complement optical analyses for paleoecological inference, molecular markers applied to ancient DNA (aDNA) may help in disclosing information hitherto inaccessible to biologists. Parducci et al. (2013) targeted aDNA from sediment cores of two lakes in the Scandes Mountains with generic primers in a meta‐barcoding approach. When compared to palynological records from the same cores, respective taxon lists show remarkable differences in their compositions, but also in quantitative representation and in taxonomic resolution similar to a previous study (Jørgensen et al. 2012). While not free of assumptions that need critical and robust testing, notably the question of possible contamination, this study provides thrilling prospects to improve our knowledge about past vegetation composition, but also other organismic groups, stored as a biological treasure in the ground. 相似文献

Habitat fragmentation is a major threat for beneficial organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. Multiple‐habitat users such as wild bees depend on both nesting and foraging habitat. Thus, they may be affected by the fragmentation of at least two habitat types. We investigated the effects of landscape‐scale amount of and patch isolation from both nesting habitat (woody plants) and foraging habitat (specific pollen sources) on the abundance and diet of Osmia bicornis L. Trap‐nests of O. bicornis were studied in 30 agricultural landscapes of the Swiss Plateau. Nesting and foraging habitats were mapped in a radius of 500 m around the sites. Pollen composition of larval diet changed as isolation to the main pollen source, Ranunculus, increased, suggesting that O. bicornis adapted its foraging strategy in function of the nest proximity to main pollen sources. Abundance of O. bicornis was neither related to isolation or amount of nesting habitat nor to isolation or abundance of food plants. Surprisingly, nests of O. bicornis contained fewer larvae in sites at forest edge compared to isolated sites, possibly due to higher parasitism risk. This study indicates that O. bicornis can nest in a variety of situations by compensating scarcity of its main larval food by exploiting alternative food sources. 相似文献

The cultivation of<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Castanea sativa</Emphasis> (Mill.) in Europe,from its origin to its diffusion on a continental scale 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The history of Castanea sativa (sweet chestnut) cultivation since medieval times has been well described on the basis of the very rich documentation available. Far fewer attempts have been made to give a historical synthesis of the events that led to the cultivation of sweet chestnut in much earlier times. In this article we attempt to reconstruct this part of the European history of chestnut cultivation and its early diffusion by use of different sources of information, such as pollen studies, archaeology, history and literature. Using this multidisciplinary approach, we have tried to identify the roles of the Greek and Roman civilizations in the dissemination of chestnut cultivation on a European scale. In particular, we show that use of the chestnut for food was not the primary driving force behind the introduction of the tree into Europe by the Romans. Apart from the Insubrian Region in the north of the Italian peninsula, no other centre of chestnut cultivation existed in Europe during the Roman period. The Romans may have introduced the idea of systematically cultivating and using chestnut. In certain cases they introduced the species itself; however no evidence of systematic planting of chestnut exists. The greatest interest in the management of chestnut for fruit production most probably developed after the Roman period and can be associated with the socio-economic structures of medieval times. It was then that self-sufficient cultures based on the cultivation of chestnut as a source of subsistence were formed.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available in the online version of this article at .

Knowledge about the glacial refugia of the thermophilous European Castanea sativa Mill. (sweet chestnut) is still inadequate. Its original range of distribution has been masked by strong human impact. Moreover, under natural conditions the species was probably admixed with other taxa (such as Quercus, Fraxinus, Fagus, Tilia) and thus possibly represented by low percentages in pollen records. In this paper we try to overcome the difficulties related to the scarcity and irregularity of chestnut pollen records by considering 1471 sites and extending the palynological approach to develop a Castanea refugium probability index (IRP), aimed at detecting possible chestnut refugia where chestnuts survived during the last glaciation. The results are in close agreement with the current literature on the refugia of other thermophilous European trees. The few divergences are most probably due to the large amount of new data integrated in this study, rather than to fundamental disagreements about data and data interpretation. The main chestnut refugia are located in the Transcaucasian region, north-western Anatolia, the hinterland of the Tyrrhenian coast from Liguria to Lazio along the Apennine range, the region around Lago di Monticchio (Monte Vulture) in southern Italy, and the Cantabrian coast on the Iberian peninsula. Despite the high likelihood of Castanea refugia in the Balkan Peninsula and north-eastern Italy (Colli Euganei, Monti Berici, Emilia-Romagna) as suggested by the IRP, additional palaeobotanical investigations are needed to assess whether these regions effectively sheltered chestnut during the last glaciation. Other regions, such as the Isère Département in France, the region across north-west Portugal and Galicia, and the hilly region along the Mediterranean coast of Syria and Lebanon were classified as areas of medium refugium probability. Our results reveal an unexpected spatial richness of potential Castanea refugia. It is likely that other European trees had similar distribution ranges during the last glaciation. It is thus conceivable that shelter zones with favourable microclimates were probably more numerous and more widely dispersed across Europe than so far assumed. In the future, more attention should be paid to pollen traces of sporadic taxa thought to have disappeared from a given area during the last glacial and post-glacial period.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available in the online version of this article at .

Detailed Late-glacial and Holocene palaeoenvironmental records from the northern Apennines with a robust chronology are still
rare, though the region has been regarded as a main area of potential refugia of important trees such as Picea abies and Abies alba. We present a new high-resolution pollen and stomata record from Lago del Greppo (1,442 m a.s.l., Pistoia, northern Apennines)
that has been dated relying on 12 terrestrial plant macrofossils. Late-glacial woodlands became established before 13000 cal
b.p. and were dominated by Pinus and Betula, although more thermophilous taxa such as Quercus, Tilia and Ulmus were already present in the Greppo area, probably at lower altitudes. Abies and Picea expanded locally at the onset of the Holocene at ca. 11500 cal b.p. Fagus sylvatica was the last important tree to expand at ca. 6500 cal b.p., following the decline of Abies. Human impact was generally low throughout the Holocene, and the local woods remained rather closed until the most recent
time, ca. a.d. 1700–1800. The vegetational history of Lago del Greppo appears consistent with that of previous investigations in the study
region. Late-glacial and Holocene vegetation dynamics in the northern Apennines are very similar to those in the Insubrian
southern Alps bordering Switzerland and Italy, across the Po Plain. Similarities between the two areas include the Late-glacial
presence of Abies alba, its strong dominance during the Holocene across different vegetation belts from the lowlands to high elevations, as well
as its final fire and human-triggered reduction during the mid Holocene. Our new data suggest that isolated and minor Picea abies populations survived the Late-glacial in the foothills of the northern Apennines and that at the onset of the Holocene they
moved upwards, reaching the site of Lago del Greppo. Today stands of Picea abies occur only in two small areas in the highest part of the northern Apennines, and they have become extinct elsewhere. Given
the forecast global warming, these relict Picea abies stands of the northern Apennines, which have a history of at least 13,000 years, appear severely endangered. 相似文献
