兰州市南山和北山3种乔木叶片生态化学计量特征的对比研究

叶片生态化学计量是了解生物地球化学循环的窗口,也是认识植物的生长状况及生态适应性的关键,研究人工林叶片生态化学计量特征对进一步优化生态工程建设具有重要意义。为揭示兰州市南北两山主要绿化树种侧柏、圆柏和云杉环境适应性的异同,对其叶片生态化学计量特征进行了对比研究。结果显示:云杉、圆柏叶片C含量(496.02、497.64 g/kg)显著高于侧柏叶片(484.12 g/kg),侧柏叶片N、P含量(17.70、1.66 g/kg)均显著高于圆柏(14.04、1.42 g/kg)和云杉(15.62、1.40 g/kg)。C、N、P的变异系数均为圆柏<侧柏<云杉;云杉、圆柏叶片C∶N (33.32、35.42)、C∶P (389.57、360.52)显著高于侧柏叶片(28.17、306.07),云杉叶片N∶P (11.88)显著高于圆柏叶片(10.20)和侧柏叶片(10.98)。C∶N、C∶P、N∶P的变异系数均为圆柏<侧柏<云杉;侧柏和云杉叶片N含量与P含量正相关、与C∶N、C∶P负相关,而3种乔木叶片P含量与C∶P、N∶P负相关(且C∶P与N∶P正相关)。圆柏叶片C含量与N含量正相关,侧柏叶片C含量与N含量负相关但与叶片C∶N、C∶P正相关,侧柏和云杉叶片C∶N与C∶P正相关。冗余分析表明,SOC∶STN是影响3种乔木叶片化学计量的主导因子,圆柏叶片C、侧柏叶片P与SOC正相关,3种乔木叶片N都与SOC、SOC∶STN和SOC∶STP正相关;云杉叶片N,侧柏、云杉叶片P和STP负相关,而STP与侧柏叶片C∶P、N∶P及云杉叶片C∶N正相关;3种乔木叶片C∶N与SOC∶STN、SOC∶STP负相关。研究结果表明:面对养分贫瘠的土壤环境,3种乔木叶片生态化学计量的适应策略有所不同,其中云杉和圆柏采取防御策略,而侧柏采取竞争倾向策略。虽然云杉是兰州市较适宜的造林树种,但其生长与其他两种乔木一样,都受N元素的限制。

A comparative study on foliar stoichiometry traits of three trees in north and south mountains of Lanzhou City

Foliar stoichiometry is a window to understand the biogeochemical cycle,as well as understand plant growth and ecological adaptability.Studying the foliar stoichiometry of artificial forests is of great significance for further optimizing ecological projects.In order to reveal the similarities and differences of the main greening species(Sabina chinensis,platycladus orientalis,Picea asperata)to environmental adaptability in the north and south mountains of Lanzhou City,the foliar stoichiometry traits of three trees were compared.The results showed that the foliar C contents of Picea asperata and Sabina chinensis(497.64 g/kg,and 496.02 g/kg,respectively)was significantly higher than that of platycladus orientalis(484.12 g/kg).The foliar N content of platycladus orientalis(17.70 g/kg)was significantly higher than that of Sabina chinensis and Picea asperata(14.04 g/kg,15.62 g/kg,respectively),and this trend was also found for foliar P content,with the former being 1.66 g/kg,and the latter two being 1.42 g/kg and 1.40 g/kg,respectively.The order of variation coefficients of C,N,and P were Sabina chinensis
