夏玉米群体光合速率特性及其与冠层结构、生态条件的关系

研究结果表明：高产夏玉米群体光合速率日变化呈单峰曲线。在水肥充足栽培条件下,光照强度是影响玉米群体光合速率的主导因素,最大自然光强下群体光合未测到光饱和点。群体光合速率随CO2浓度(50—900ppm范围)的增加而提高。土壤呼吸释放的CO2量占群体光合速率的11.68%。高产群体所形成的独特环境对单叶光合速率影响很大,群体生长下的单株,在8×104一9×104Lx光下的单叶光合速率为果穗叶高于下部和上部叶,品种、密度间差异不大;冠层自然状态下的单位叶面积光合速率上部叶却高于中、下部叶,高密度下,紧凑型品种高于平展型品种,低密度下则相反。

灌浆期间冬小麦多穗型品种豫麦49和大穗型品种豫麦66旗叶中蔗糖磷酸合成酶活性和可溶性糖含量变化均呈单峰曲线,后者的峰值出现较晚,灌浆中后期叶片中相关的酶活性下降缓慢。两品种旗叶中硝酸还原酶活性变化趋势基本相同,开花后5～20d问,豫麦49旗叶中NR活性高于豫麦66,20～35d间情况相反。在整个灌浆期间豫麦49籽粒淀粉积累速率呈双峰曲线,峰值分别出现在花后15～20d和25～30d问;豫麦66则为单峰曲线,峰值出现较晚但持续时间较长。     

冬小麦节水栽培群体“穗叶比”及其与产量和水分利用的关系

建立高光效低耗水的群体结构是小麦节水高产栽培的核心内容。为此,需要明确节水高产群体的适宜调控指标。以穗叶比(单位面积穗数与上三叶总面积之比,穗/m2)为指标,在不同品种、不同灌水和种植密度条件下研究了小麦群体穗叶比的变化,并分析了穗叶比与群体光合性能、水分利用的关系。结果表明,在相同密度下,随着灌水减少,孕穗、开花和灌浆期的穗叶比均相应增大;在限水灌溉下,随密度增加穗叶比也相应增加。不同品种的穗叶比也存在明显差异。在适宜叶面积基础上,随穗叶比增加,群体中非叶面积指数(NAI)增加,冠层内光照状况明显改善,群体光合效率提高;非叶器官贮藏物质转移率增加,收获指数提高。在一定范围内,随穗叶比增加产量明显增加,而耗水量显著减少,从而使水分利用效率得到提高。研究认为,群体穗/叶比是衡量小麦节水栽培库源关系是否协调的适宜指标。试验中小麦节水省肥高产栽培适宜的穗叶比值为230—270穗/m2。

不同供水条件下冬小麦叶与非叶绿色 器官光合日变化特征

为揭示小麦叶片与非叶绿色器官的光合活性在一日中的变化特性及其在器官间的差异性,探讨群体及不同器官光合日变化对不同供水条件的响应特征,在田间设置生育期不灌水(I0)、灌2水(I2,拔节水＋开花水)和灌4水(I4,起身水+孕穗水+开花水+灌浆水)3个处理,于灌浆期测定了群体光合与呼吸速率的日变化, 旗叶片、叶鞘、穗、穗下节间各器官光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度及叶绿素荧光参数的日变化。结果表明,灌浆期小麦穗和穗下节间光合速率日变化呈单峰曲线,而旗叶叶片与旗叶鞘光合速率均呈双峰型,表现出不同程度的午休。随着灌水次数减少,各器官光合速率降低,叶片对严重水分亏缺的反应大于各非叶器官。器官光合速率的日变化与F_v/F_m变化相一致,而与气孔导度日变化有较大差异。各器官上午的累积光合量均高于下午,上午光合量占日总光合量的比例为51％-62％,随着灌水次数减少而增大。不同灌水处理群体光合速率、呼吸速率日变化均未出现午休现象。春季浇2水处理与春浇4水处理相比,灌浆期群体光合速率及日光合积累量没有显著差异。综合研究认为,小麦叶与非叶器官光合性能及其日变化特征有较大不同,非叶光合对水分亏缺的敏感性低于叶片,生育期浇2水可以获得与浇4水相似的群体日光合积累量。     

两种类型小麦品种分蘖成穗对群体环境的响应与调控

为探讨不同类型小麦(Triticum aestivum)品种分蘖成穗特性及对群体环境的响应, 寻求合理播种方式的调控参数, 在大田试验条件下, 对两类品种单株稀植与不同播种方式所构成的不同群体进行了对比研究。结果表明, 单株稀植时, 两类品种均具有较高的分蘖潜力, 中多穗型品种‘济麦20’和‘鲁麦14’单株平均成穗数为40.58和44.34个, 大穗型品种‘山农8355’和‘兰考矮早八’为24.33和23.20个, 成穗率存在着显著的基因型差异; 进入不同播种方式的群体环境后, 中多穗型品种每株平均成穗数降至3.37和3.85个, 降低率分别为91.70%和91.32%, 大穗型品种每株成穗1.82和1.36个, 分别降低92.52%和94.14%; 证明群体环境对分蘖成穗的影响比遗传因素更强烈, 且大穗型品种分蘖成穗特性对群体环境的响应较中多穗型敏感。播种方式可有效地调控群体结构, 条播的经济产量显著高于撒播, 条播行距配置对产量的影响因品种类型而异; 中多穗型行距在23.4-23.9 cm、大穗型在16.5-16.9 cm时产量最高; 撒播和窄行条播可有效地增加单位面积穗数, 提高挑旗和灌浆中期群体中、上层的光截获率, 而千粒重和穗粒数却随之降低。播种方式对挑旗后群体内部CO₂浓度有微弱的影响。

喷施ABA对两个穗型不同小麦穗颈节伤流、穗部性状及产量的影响

以冬小麦品种山农8355和山农15为试验材料,研究了不同ABA喷期处理条件下,小麦花后穗颈节伤流变化及其对籽粒穗部性状与产量的影响。结果表明,多穗型品种SN15伤流强度呈现出单峰变化,而大穗型品种SN8355呈现一定的双峰变化趋势,其伤流强度在后期出现一个小高峰。不论是孕穗后期喷施ABA处理(T1)还是花后3d喷施ABA处理(T2),一定程度上均有利于花后穗颈节伤流的增加。各粒位籽粒粒重与体积在不同生育时期表现基本相同,大体上表现为T1处理较对照小,而T2处理则较对照大,即T2＞CK＞T1。施用ABA可改善穗部营养状况,最高增加穗粒数31.31%,平均提高小穗结实率2.79%,增加穗粒重7.90%-19.01%,并最终增加产量4.08%-9.81%。相关分析表明,穗颈节伤流强度在大多数生育时期与穗粒重关系密切,而群体伤流强度则与产量关系相对密切。研究表明,合理施用ABA能够调节小麦穗颈节伤流强度,从而可以优化穗部性状发育,利于产量的提高。     

草坪型结缕草冠层截留性能试验研究

草坪植物冠层对雨水或灌溉水的截留量大小对于草坪水分利用效率具有重要影响.针对草坪型结缕草,用吸水法分别试验研究了单株和群落草坪草的冠层截留特性.结果表明:结缕草的叶片数量、叶面积对单株结缕草截留量影响显著.随着叶片数量的增多,单株结缕草截留量增大,5叶枝条的结缕草截留量高达0.16g,占其植株浸水前自身重的81.22%,而3叶枝条的结缕草截留量仅为5叶枝条结缕草的1/2.单株结缕草截留量与叶面积呈线性正相关关系.对于结缕草草坪,修剪留茬高度越高,截留量就越多.建植3a的草坪在修剪高度14cm时冠层截留可达1.05mm,修剪6cm时截留量为0.48mm.在修剪留茬高度相同的情况下,不同生长年限间草坪草截留量、截留率差异极显著(P＜0.01),建植3a的草坪比建植1a的草坪能拦截更多的水分,在修剪高度6cm时,3a生草坪草截留量为0.48mm,而1年生草坪草截留量为0.38mm,并且随着修剪高度的增加,不同年限间截留量的差异越明显,差值最大可达0.44mm.     

Forest canopy structure analyzed by using aerial photographs

A method was developed using aerial photographs to analyze forest canopy structure. Digital elevation models of both the land and canopy surface in a mesh of 5 m intervals were made from aerial photographs taken in winter (without tree leaves) and summer (with leaves), respectively, in a 60 ha area of temperate deciduous forest. The difference between the two elevation values at each point was regarded as the canopy height, and a canopy height profile was constructed. The estimated canopy structure was compared with that obtained by ground observations in a 6 ha part of the study area. Large gaps (>100 m²) were adequately detected by the method, and the gap size distribution obtained was similar to the one observed on the ground. The method was found to be effective in analyzing the forest canopy structure of large areas, but it is not suitable for the detection of small gaps.

Artificial canopy gaps accelerate restoration within an exotic Pinus radiata plantation

We created small‐scale artificial canopy gaps to accelerate the growth of mature indigenous forest canopy species for restoration of an 18‐year‐old exotic Pinus radiata plantation forest, in the Marlborough Sounds, New Zealand. Small and large circular gaps were formed by felling. Seedlings of two indigenous forest canopy species, Podocarpus totara (Podocarpaceae) and Beilschmiedia tawa (Lauraceae), were planted within artificial gaps and undisturbed plantation canopy. Seedling height growth, mortality, and occurrence of animal browse were monitored at approximately 6‐month intervals over 17 months. Both P. totara and B. tawa differed significantly in height growth and in animal browse occurrence among artificial gap treatments. Growth of the light‐demanding P. totara was better under large canopy gaps, whereas growth of the shade‐tolerant B. tawa increased under gaps of any size but was most consistent under small gaps. For P. totara, any significant restoration benefit of gap formation on height growth was lost when browsed seedlings were taken into account. Animal browse significantly limited B. tawa height growth in large but not in small gaps. Small‐scale canopy gap creation is an effective method of modifying light transmission to the plantation understorey and accelerating seedling growth rates. Canopy gap size can be used to optimize understorey illumination according to species‐specific light requirements. The increased occurrence of animal browse in gaps requires consideration. Artificial canopy gaps within planted monocultures create structural heterogeneity that would otherwise take an extended period of time to develop. These results further support the role of plantations as indigenous forest restoration sites.     

Linking physiological processes with mangrove forest structure: phosphorus deficiency limits canopy development, hydraulic conductivity and photosynthetic carbon gain in dwarf Rhizophora mangle

Spatial gradients in mangrove tree height in barrier islands of Belize are associated with nutrient deficiency and sustained flooding in the absence of a salinity gradient. While nutrient deficiency is likely to affect many parameters, here we show that addition of phosphorus (P) to dwarf mangroves stimulated increases in diameters of xylem vessels, area of conductive xylem tissue and leaf area index (LAI) of the canopy. These changes in structure were consistent with related changes in function, as addition of P also increased hydraulic conductivity ( K _s), stomatal conductance and photosynthetic assimilation rates to the same levels measured in taller trees fringing the seaward margin of the mangrove. Increased xylem vessel size and corresponding enhancements in stem hydraulic conductivity in P fertilized dwarf trees came at the cost of enhanced midday loss of hydraulic conductivity and was associated with decreased assimilation rates in the afternoon. Analysis of trait plasticity identifies hydraulic properties of trees as more plastic than those of leaf structural and physiological characteristics, implying that hydraulic properties are key in controlling growth in mangroves. Alleviation of P deficiency, which released trees from hydraulic limitations, reduced the structural and functional distinctions between dwarf and taller fringing tree forms of Rhizophora mangle .

Modelling canopy CO2 fluxes: are ‘big‐leaf’ simplifications justified?

• 1 The ‘big‐leaf’ approach to calculating the carbon balance of plant canopies is evaluated for inclusion in the ETEMA model framework. This approach assumes that canopy carbon fluxes have the same relative responses to the environment as any single leaf, and that the scaling from leaf to canopy is therefore linear.
• 2 A series of model simulations was performed with two models of leaf photosynthesis, three distributions of canopy nitrogen, and two levels of canopy radiation detail. Leaf‐ and canopy‐level responses to light and nitrogen, both as instantaneous rates and daily integrals, are presented.
• 3 Observed leaf nitrogen contents of unshaded leaves are over 40% lower than the big‐leaf approach requires. Scaling from these leaves to the canopy using the big‐leaf approach may underestimate canopy photosynthesis by ~20%. A leaf photosynthesis model that treats within‐leaf light extinction displays characteristics that contradict the big‐leaf theory. Observed distributions of canopy nitrogen are closer to those required to optimize this model than the homogeneous model used in the big‐leaf approach.
• 4 It is theoretically consistent to use the big‐leaf approach with the homogeneous photosynthesis model to estimate canopy carbon fluxes if canopy nitrogen and leaf area are known and if the distribution of nitrogen is assumed optimal. However, real nitrogen profiles are not optimal for this photosynthesis model, and caution is necessary in using the big‐leaf approach to scale satellite estimates of leaf physiology to canopies. Accurate prediction of canopy carbon fluxes requires canopy nitrogen, leaf area, declining nitrogen with canopy depth, the heterogeneous model of leaf photosynthesis and the separation of sunlit and shaded leaves. The exact nitrogen profile is not critical, but realistic distributions can be predicted using a simple model of canopy nitrogen allocation.

     

紫耳箭竹克隆形态可塑性对典型冠层结构及光环境的响应

在重庆金佛山国家自然保护内,选择了3种典型群落类型(落叶阔叶林、常绿落叶阔叶混交林和常绿阔叶林),使用Hemiview数字植物冠层分析系统量化群落冠层结构和光环境特征,并对林下紫耳箭竹(Fargesia decurvata)的形态可塑性特征进行调查,分析冠层结构和光环境特征改变下紫耳箭竹形态可塑性的差异,并探讨它们之间的相互关系。结果表明:(1)随着落叶阔叶林"常绿落叶阔叶混交林"常绿阔叶林演替的进行,群落的冠层开度降低,叶面积指数增加,平均叶倾角变小,趋于水平化,冠层对光的截获能力提高,林下光照的强度降低(P0.05)。(2)随着光照强度的降低,紫耳箭竹分株矮小化,叶片变窄,生物量积累降低,但通过增大比茎长、叶面积率和比叶面积提高对光的利用效率,并增大分枝角度和比隔长有效适应弱光环境。(3)在光照条件差的常绿阔叶林下,紫耳箭竹降低对地下茎的投资,将较多的生物量用于秆的增高增长和叶片的生长;而在光照条件好的落叶阔叶林环境下,紫耳箭竹降低对枝、叶生物量的分配,则加大对地下茎的投资,可认为是克隆植物对水分资源所表现的一种觅食行为。研究表明,紫耳箭竹种群随着冠层结构的改变发生了明显的可塑性变化,这些可塑性变化是种群对冠层结构和光环境差异的适应性反应的结果,有利于增强种群对异质生境中光资源的获取和利用;群落内部可以通过调控冠层结构的改变协调和控制小径竹种群的发展。     

Salinity-induced limits to mangrove canopy height

Aim

Mangrove canopy height is a key metric to assess tidal forests' resilience in the face of climate change. In terrestrial forests, tree height is primarily determined by water availability, plant hydraulic design, and disturbance regime. However, the role of water stress remains elusive in tidal environments, where saturated soils are prevalent, and salinity can substantially affect the soil water potential.

Location

Global.

Time Period

The canopy height dataset provides a global snapshot of the maximum mangrove height geographical distribution for the year 2000. Climate and environmental variables extend over the period 1970–2018.

Major Taxa Studied

Mangroves.

Methods

We use global observations of maximum canopy height, species richness, air temperature, and seawater salinity—a proxy of soil water salt concentration—to explore the causal link between salinity and mangrove stature.

Results

Our findings suggest that salt stress limits mangrove height. High salinity favours more salt-tolerant species, narrowing the spectrum of viable traits. Highly salt-tolerant mangroves have evolved to cope with high salt concentrations in the soil, but this adaptation comes at a cost. They typically have lower rates of photosynthesis and growth, resulting in reduced productivity and smaller stature compared to more salt-sensitive mangrove species. This suggests a causal link between salinity, biodiversity, and tree height, where high salinity selects for more salt-tolerant species that tend to be less productive and shorter.

Conclusions

We hypothesize that the salinity-induced limit to mangrove canopy height is the direct result of a reduction of primary productivity, an increment in the risk of xylem cavitation, and an indirect consequence of the decrease in biodiversity. As sea-level rise enhances coastal salinisation, failure to account for these effects can lead to incorrect estimates of future carbon stocks in Tropical coastal ecosystems and endanger preservation efforts.
