不同盐分水平对中国柽柳和甘蒙柽柳根系生长及生理特性的影响

柽柳作为黄河三角洲湿地的重要优势种,对盐渍化环境具有较好的适应性。根系作为植物直接感受盐分变化的器官,研究其生理生态特性对盐分条件的响应,对植物生存、土壤改良及植被恢复等具有重要意义。以一年生中国柽柳和甘蒙柽柳插穗为研究材料,采用水培法,设置6个盐分水平:CK(空白对照)、0.4%、0.8%、1.2%、2.4%、3.6%进行试验,测定生根率、根寿命、根系生物量等生长指标及根中过氧化氢酶(CAT)、ATP合成酶活性和脱落酸(ABA)含量等生理指标,研究不同盐分水平对根系生长及生理特性的影响。结果表明:中国柽柳和甘蒙柽柳适合扦插在含盐量低于0.8%的培养溶液中;含盐量超过0.8%后,扦插穗生根率显著降低,且含盐量3.6%时甘蒙柽柳不生根;含盐量超过1.2%时,中国柽柳及甘蒙柽柳根系生长受到显著抑制,且中国柽柳受抑制程度较大;中国柽柳和甘蒙柽柳在高盐条件下均会通过增加根系生物量分配比例来缓解盐分对根系的危害;中国柽柳ATP合成酶活性、CAT活性在含盐量低于0.8%时增加,含盐量超过0.8%时,活性降低;脱落酸含量随含盐量增加先增加,含盐量超过1.2%时减少;甘蒙柽柳则随含盐量升高一直保持减少趋势。     

盐胁迫对中国柽柳幼苗生理特性的影响

以中国柽柳(Tamarix chinensis Lour.)插穗为研究材料,在装有不同土壤盐分梯度(0.4%、0.8%、1.2%、1.6%、2.0%、2.4%)的盆钵中进行扦插试验,测定柽柳扦插成活率、叶绿素含量、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性、过氧化物酶(POD)活性及丙二醛(MDA)含量等指标,研究分析柽柳扦插成活率及幼苗生理特性对盐分胁迫的响应特征。结果表明:(1)柽柳扦插成活率随盐胁迫增强逐渐降低,适合扦插繁殖的土壤含盐量低于0.8%;土壤含盐量超过0.8%后,扦插成活率太低,不适合柽柳进行扦插繁殖。(2)柽柳可通过提高叶绿素含量来适应盐胁迫,随着盐胁迫增强,柽柳扦插幼苗叶片中叶绿素含量先升高后降低,但过高的盐胁迫会破坏叶绿素的合成。(3)柽柳扦插幼苗叶片SOD和POD活性随盐胁迫增强先升高后降低,通过提高SOD和POD活性来清除细胞内多余的活性氧自由基,但活性氧自由基积累过多时,膜脂过氧化作用会破坏细胞膜的稳定性,导致抗氧化酶活性降低。(4)柽柳扦插幼苗叶片MDA含量随盐胁迫的增强先升高后降低。在土壤含盐量0.4%—1.2%范围内,MDA含量虽高于CK,但各盐分处理之间差异不显著。在含盐量为1.6%时,叶片细胞受到膜脂过氧化作用加强,MDA含量显著升高,但含盐量为2.0%时,MDA含量降低。     

沙生柽柳扦插生根过程插穗相关理化特征分析

选取沙生柽柳半木质化枝条进行苗床扦插,通过实验测定插穗生根过程中内源激素(IAA、GA3、ZR、ABA)含量、可溶性营养物质(糖、蛋白质)含量及相关氧化酶(PPO、POD、SOD、IAAO)活性的动态变化特征,探讨沙生柽柳插穗扦插生根机理。结果表明:(1)沙生柽柳插穗内源激素含量随生根进程而发生变化,其中,IAA含量在扦插35d最大,并出现较大的波动变化;ZR含量在扦插55d前后变化明显,呈现低水平向高水平转化趋势;ABA、GA3含量依次呈先升高后降低再升高的变化过程,并在扦插15d和55d(80d)呈现变化的峰值和谷值。(2)沙生柽柳扦插生根与相关氧化酶活性密切相关,其中,POD、IAAO活性在插穗扦插35d后长时间保持较高水平,直至插穗生根后POD活性明显降低,IAAO活性有所增加;PPO、SOD活性则在插穗扦插15d保持较高活性,且PPO活性的变化均匀,SOD活性的高低交替变化明显。(3)在沙生柽柳扦插生根期间,插穗可溶性糖含量呈现生根前消耗减少与生根后积累增加两大变化过程,可溶性蛋白质含量表现为扦插后逐步积累增加的变化趋势。研究表明,高水平的IAA、ZR和低水平的GA3、ABA共同调控着沙生柽柳插穗生根;IAA能够通过促进插穗POD、PPO、IAAO活性变化来影响生根,较高的POD、IAAO活性可调节插穗IAA水平,高水平的PPO活性则催化插穗IAA-酚酸复合物的形成,进而诱导插穗生根。

地下水位对黄河三角洲柽柳根系生长的影响

为揭示黄河三角洲柽柳根系生长特征对地下水位的响应规律,明确柽柳生长适宜的地下水位,在咸水矿化度（6 g/L）下,模拟设置0、0.3、0.6、0.9、1.2、1.5、1.8 m共7个地下水位。测定分析栽植柽柳土柱的水盐参数与根系生长指标。结果表明：在咸水矿化度下,地下水位可显著影响土壤水盐变化,从而影响柽柳根系的生长。随地下水位的降低,土壤含水量、含盐量和土壤溶液绝对浓度显著降低。在高水位（≤0.6 m）下,柽柳根系生长受水盐胁迫影响显著,柽柳根长、根径、侧根数、总生物量、侧根生物量、根系连接长度均较低,拓扑结构呈叉状分支;中水位（0.9 m）时,土壤水盐条件适宜,柽柳侧根数、根径、二级侧根和毛细根生物量达到最大值,拓扑结构由叉状分支向鱼尾形分支过渡;低水位（≥1.2 m）下,土壤水盐含量低,柽柳根系总生物量、主根生物量、一级侧根生物量和根系平均连接长度在1.2 m水位达到最大值后降低,拓扑结构呈鱼尾形分支。柽柳根系生长与地下水位密切相关,柽柳通过改变根系生长和调整构型来适应不同土壤水盐和地下水位条件。高水位（≤0.6 m）下柽柳以降低根系生长深度,增加分叉,调配各组织器官的生物量来适应水盐胁迫;中水位0.9 m下土壤水盐条件最适宜柽柳生长;低水位（≥1.2 m）下柽柳主要受土壤干旱胁迫而使根系向下生长,增加根系连接长度,以此扩大资源获取效率。柽柳根系生长及根系构型对咸水矿化度下不同地下水位表现出较强的适应性和可塑性。

外源脱落酸对湿地植物美人蕉抗寒性的影响

低温时植物枯萎导致人工湿地运行效率降低,研究将脱落酸应用于湿地植物,以期提高其抗寒性。采用0、5、10、15、20和25 mg/L的脱落酸(ABA)对美人蕉(Canna indica L.)幼苗叶面进行喷施并进行阶段性降温培养,评价各组在0℃时的抗寒性,筛选出最适ABA处理浓度。结果表明:在低温条件下,经过适宜浓度外源脱落酸预处理组的丙二醛(MDA)、相对电导率显著性低于对照组;脯氨酸、可溶性糖和蛋白质含量显著高于对照组,超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性也有所提高。综合以上指标,认为15 mg/L脱落酸处理为最佳。随后将其应用于人工湿地,对其冬季净化效果进行评估。结果发现, 15 mg/L脱落酸预处理可使人工湿地的冬季TP、TN和COD去除率显著高于对照组(P<0.05)。由此可见,一定浓度的脱落酸预处理能够有效提高美人蕉的抗寒性,并提高人工湿地冬季净化效果。     

Relationship between morphological and physiological responses to waterlogging and salinity in Sporobolus virginicus (L.) Kunth

The effects of waterlogging and salinity on morphological and physiological responses in the marsh grass Sporobolus virginicus (L.) Kunth were investigated in a 4×2 factorial experiment. Plants were subjected to four salinity levels (0, 100, 200 and 400 mol m^–3 NaCl) and two soil inundation conditions (drained and flooded) for 42 days. Flooding at 0 mol m^–3 NaCl caused initiation of adventitious surface roots, increased internal acration and plant height, induced alcohol dehydrogenase activity (ADH), and decreased belowground biomass and the number of culms per plant. Salinity increase from 0 to 400 mol m^–3 NaCl under drained conditions increased leaf and root proline concentrations and decreased photosynthesis, aboveground biomass, number of culms per plant and number of internodes per culm. Concurrent waterlogging and salinity induced ADH activity and adventitious surface roots but decreased plant height and aboveground biomass. Internal air space increased with waterlogging from 0 to 100 mol m^–3 NaCl but further increases in salinity to 400 mol m^–3 reduced air space. Combined waterlogging and salinity stresses, however, had no effect on photosynthesis or on the concentrations of proline in leaves or roots. These results are discussed in relation to the widespread colonization by S. virginicus of a wide range of coastal environments varying in soil salinity and in the frequency and intensity of waterlogging.     

黄河三角洲滨海滩涂不同密度柽柳林的根系形态及生长特征

为探讨黄河三角洲滨海滩涂不同密度柽柳根系形态及生长特征,以山东省滨州港附近滨海滩涂的低密度（1100株/hm²）、中密度（4100株/hm²）和高密度（7100株/hm²）柽柳林为研究对象,采用全挖法对不同密度柽柳根系进行挖掘,测定分析柽柳地上生物量、根系生物量、空间分布特征、拓扑结构和连接长度等指标。结果表明：（1）中、高密度下,柽柳对根系生长的投入量更大,以保证对地下资源的吸收利用,根冠比分别为0.59、0.53;而低密度柽柳根冠比为0.44。（2）低、中密度下柽柳根冠生长关系均表现为异速生长,高密度下为等速生长。（3）不同密度柽柳根系生长都以水平分布为主,表现出水平根型特征。中、高密度柽柳根幅及侧根长均小于低密度,低密度柽柳根系水平分布范围最大,可利于增强觅养和固定能力。（4）林分密度与拓扑指数显著相关,低密度柽柳根系拓扑结构趋向于叉状结构（拓扑指数TI=0.62）;中、高密度柽柳拓扑结构趋向于鱼尾形分支（TI=0.86;TI=0.81）。（5）不同密度柽柳根系外部连接长度显著大于内部连接长度,呈现滨海滩涂柽柳根系向外扩张的生长策略。滨海滩涂不同密度柽柳根冠异速生长关系、根系形态及生长特征既有差异性又有相似性,表现出不同的密度适应特征。不同密度柽柳根系均以地表分布、向外扩张为主。低密度柽柳主要通过增加分支,扩大根系生长空间;中、高密度柽柳减少分支,加强对内部资源的利用,以降低与邻株间的竞争。柽柳密度与土壤含水量、电导率、扎根深度、侧根长、拓扑指数显著相关。     

Competitive relationships between two contrasting but coexisting grasses

Leymus chinensis (Trin.) Tzvelev and Phragmites communis Trin. are co-dominant grasses in both nutrient-poor and rich steppes in the Songnen Plains of northeastern China. A replacement series experiment was conducted along a five-level nutrient gradient to test for changes in the competitive relationships of the species with nutrient availability. There were significant effects of nutrient level and species proportion on mean plant height, biomass and rhizome length. Facilitation was found in these plant attributes for both species when grown in mixture compared with monoculture, especially at high nutrient levels. For example, L. chinensis grew taller and intercepted more light when in mixture. The aboveground dominance of P. communis did not decrease in mixture, possibly because it benefited from belowground interactions with L. chinensis. Biomass allocation was apparently influenced by both above and belowground competition. For example, L. chinensis allocated much more biomass to shoots and less to roots when neighbor number was increased, suggesting that aboveground competition occurred. Root: shoot ratios of L. chinensis in monoculture decreased gradually with increasing nutrient availability, whereas the ratio in mixture declined rapidly, implying intense competition for light at high levels. Our results support the hypothesis that nutrient competition is more important than light competition when soil nutrients are scarce. Although the interactions between these species benefit both, P. communis is more likely to displace L. chinensis at high nutrient availability.     

青海省森林细根生物量及其影响因子

细根是植物吸收水分和养分的主要器官。全球变暖背景下,研究森林细根生物量及其环境因子的变化对生态系统碳平衡、碳收支及其贡献率具有重要意义。采用土钻法和室内分析法对青海省森林6个海拔梯度上5种林分类型的细根生物量和土壤理化性质进行测定,并分析了与环境因子之间的相互关系。结果表明:(1)青海省森林0—40 cm土层总细根生物量平均为8.50 t/hm~2,随着海拔梯度的增加先降低后升高,不同海拔梯度细根生物量差异显著(P0.05),最大值出现在2100—2400 m处。(2)5种林分0—40 cm土层总细根生物量为:白桦白杨云杉圆柏山杨,不同林分间细根生物量差异不显著。(3)细根垂直分布随土层深度增加而减少,且70%的细根集中在表层(0—20 cm)。(4)土壤容重深层(20—40 cm)显著大于表层(P0.05),并随海拔梯度逐步增加,且林分间差异较大。(5)全碳(Total carbon, TC)、全氮(Total nitrogen, TN)、全磷(Total phosphorus, TP)含量表层显著高于深层。TC、TN随海拔升高先增后降低,TP则随海拔逐步降低。不同林分间土壤养分差异较明显。(6)结构方程模型分析得到海拔、土层、容重直接影响细根生物量,细根生物量直接影响土壤养分。林分类型通过土壤容重间接影响细根生物量。因此,林分和海拔通过影响土壤微环境而影响到细根生物量及其空间分布格局。     

低磷胁迫对雷公藤幼苗形态指标及生物量的影响

采用土培的方法,研究了磷(P)胁迫对雷公藤(Tripterygium wilfordii Hook.f.)1年生和3年生幼苗在一个生长季内形态指标及生物量的影响。结果表明:低P处理显著抑制了雷公藤幼苗地上部分的增长,而对地下部分的影响较小,导致根冠比的增加,在相同P水平处理下,3年生雷公藤的根冠比高于1年生的;低P胁迫显著影响了雷公藤的生物量积累及分配,雷公藤幼苗总生物量及1年生雷公藤细根生物量占根系生物量的比例下降,根系生物量在总生物量中的比例及3年生雷公藤细根生物量在根系生物量中的比例上升。这表明3年生雷公藤对P逆境有更好的适应机制,对低P林地套种雷公藤的苗龄选择有参考价值;雷公藤幼苗的株高、最长枝均与生物量呈显著的正相关,可作为耐低P雷公藤良种选育中优良性状的指标。中轻度的P胁迫不显著影响根系生物量的积累,维持较大比例的根系是雷公藤适应低P胁迫的主要策略。     

Architectural Tradeoffs between Adventitious and Basal Roots for Phosphorus Acquisition

Adventitious rooting contributes to efficient phosphorus acquisition by enhancing topsoil foraging. However, metabolic investment in adventitious roots may retard the development of other root classes such as basal roots, which are also important for phosphorus acquisition. In this study we quantitatively assessed the potential effects of adventitious rooting on basal root growth and whole plant phosphorus acquisition in young bean plants. The geometric simulation model SimRoot was used to dynamically model root systems with varying architecture and C availability growing for 21 days at 3 planting depths in 3 soil types with contrasting nutrient mobility. Simulated root architectures, tradeoffs between adventitious and basal root growth, and phosphorus acquisition were validated with empirical measurements. Phosphorus acquisition and phosphorus acquisition efficiency (defined as mol phosphorus acquired per mol C allocated to roots) were estimated for plants growing in soil in which phosphorus availability was uniform with depth or was greatest in the topsoil, as occurs in most natural soils. Phosphorus acquisition and acquisition efficiency increased with increasing allocation to adventitious roots in stratified soil, due to increased phosphorus depletion of surface soil. In uniform soil, increased adventitious rooting decreased phosphorus acquisition by reducing the growth of lateral roots arising from the tap root and basal roots. The benefit of adventitious roots for phosphorus acquisition was dependent on the specific respiration rate of adventitious roots as well as on whether overall C allocation to root growth was increased, as occurs in plants under phosphorus stress, or was lower, as observed in unstressed plants. In stratified soil, adventitious rooting reduced the growth of tap and basal lateral roots, yet phosphorus acquisition increased by up to 10% when total C allocation to roots was high and adventitious root respiration was similar to that in basal roots. With C allocation to roots decreased by 38%, adventitious roots still increased phosphorus acquisition by 5%. Allocation to adventitious roots enhanced phosphorus acquisition and efficiency as long as the specific respiration of adventitious roots was similar to that of basal roots and less than twice that of tap roots. When adventitious roots were assigned greater specific respiration rates, increased adventitious rooting reduced phosphorus acquisition and efficiency by diverting carbohydrate from other root types. Varying the phosphorus diffusion coefficient to reflect varying mobilities in different soil types had little effect on the value of adventitious rooting for phosphorus acquisition. Adventitious roots benefited plants regardless of basal root growth angle. Seed planting depth only affected phosphorus uptake and efficiency when seed was planted below the high phosphorus surface stratum. Our results confirm the importance of root respiration in nutrient foraging strategies, and demonstrate functional tradeoffs among distinct components of the root system. These results will be useful in developing ideotypes for more nutrient efficient crops.     

黄河三角洲滨海滩涂不同密度柽柳林的土壤盐碱与养分特征

为探讨黄河三角洲滨海滩涂不同密度柽柳林的土壤盐碱和养分特征,明确不同密度柽柳林的“盐谷”及“肥岛”效应,以黄河三角洲山东省滨州市北海新区滨海滩涂的低密度（1100 株/hm2）、中密度（4100 株/hm2）和高密度（7100 株/hm2）柽柳林为研究对象,测定分析不同密度柽柳林及柽柳植株周边不同位置的土壤pH、电导率、速效氮、速效磷、速效钾、有机碳等指标。结果表明：（1）土壤电导率随林分密度增大表现为逐渐减小,在中、高密度柽柳林,土壤电导率分别比低密度降低28.39%、55.74%;随距离柽柳植株远近不同,中、高密度柽柳林土壤电导率表现为根部<冠幅中心<冠幅边缘<株间空地,即中、高密度柽柳林出现“盐谷”效应,而低密度林分未出现。（2）土壤速效氮、速效磷和有机碳含量随林分密度增大表现出先增大后减小,在中、高密度柽柳林,柽柳植株周边不同位置的速效氮、速效磷和有机碳含量存在显著差异（P<0.05）,表现为根部>冠幅中心>冠幅边缘>株间空地,而低密度柽柳林差异不显著（P>0.05）;即中、高密度柽柳林出现“肥岛”效应,而低密度林分未出现。（3）中密度柽柳林在养分含量、养分富集率方面高于高密度,在盐分富集率方面低于高密度,具有更强的“肥岛”、“盐谷”效应。（4）不同密度柽柳林以及柽柳植株周边不同位置的土壤pH差异均不显著（P>0.05）。林分密度显著影响土壤盐分及养分含量,中密度柽柳林具有显著提高土壤肥力的作用,高密度次之,而低密度较差。不同密度柽柳林的降盐作用表现为中、高密度较好,低密度较差。基于柽柳林改良土壤盐碱与养分的作用,建议黄河三角洲滨海滩涂柽柳合理的初植密度为4100 株/hm2。     

Competition in tree row agroforestry systems. 1. Distribution and dynamics of fine root length and biomass

Complementarity in the distribution of tree and crop root systems is important to minimise competition for resources whilst maximising resource use in agroforestry systems. A field study was conducted on a kaolinitic Oxisol in the sub-humid highlands of western Kenya to compare the distribution and dynamics of root length and biomass of a 3-year-old Grevillea robusta A. Cunn. ex R. Br. (grevillea) tree row and a 3-year-old Senna spectabilis DC. (senna) hedgerow grown with Zea mays L. (maize). Tree roots were sampled to a 300 cm depth and 525 cm distance from the tree rows, both before and after maize cropping. Maize roots were sampled at two distances from the tree rows (75–150 cm and 450–525 cm) to a maximum depth of 180 cm, at three developmental stages. The mean root length density (L_rv) of the trees in the upper 15 cm was 0.55 cm cm⁻³ for grevillea and 1.44 cm cm⁻³ for senna, at the start of the cropping season. The L_rv of senna decreased at every depth during the cropping season, whereas the L_rv of grevillea only decreased in the crop rooting zone. The fine root length of the trees decreased by about 35% for grevillea and 65% for senna, because of maize competition, manual weeding, seasonal senescence or pruning regime (senna). At anthesis, the L_rv of maize in the upper 15 cm was between 0.8 and 1.5 cm cm⁻³. Maize root length decreased with greater proximity to the tree rows, potentially reducing its ability to compete for soil resources. However, the specific root length (m g⁻¹) of maize was about twice that of the trees, so may have had a competitive uptake advantage even when tree root length was greater. Differences in maize fine root length and biomass suggest that competition for soil resources and hence fine root length may have been more important for maize grown with senna than grevillea.

黄河三角洲莱州湾湿地柽柳种群分布特征及其影响因素

为探明黄河三角洲莱州湾柽柳(Tamarix chinensis Lour)灌丛环境因子的基本特征及其对柽柳灌丛空间分布类型的影响,采用样地与样方相结合的测定方法,对柽柳灌丛样地距海远近、地下水水位、土壤盐碱含量、土壤容重和孔隙度等基本物理参数以及土壤有机质、速效氮、磷养分等13个环境因子参数进行相关性和主成分分析。结果表明:莱州湾柽柳种群空间分布表现为聚集型分布,林分密度与距海距离和地下水水位呈极显著正相关,与土壤含水量呈极显著负相关;土壤含盐量与土壤含水量呈极显著正相关,与地下水水位和土壤孔隙度呈极显著负相关;土壤含水量与地下水位呈极显著负相关。莱州湾柽柳灌丛13个环境因子的变异系数在0.060—1.296之间,土壤K+含量、土壤含盐量和林分密度变化幅度较大;其次为土壤有机质和有效磷,地下水水位的空间变异性高于至海距离,而土壤p H值、土壤容重和总孔隙度等基本物理性状变化幅度较小。土壤盐碱含量分别为0.47%和p H为8.48,呈重盐土和偏碱性特征。主成分分析表明,土壤盐碱含量是影响黄河三角洲莱州湾湿地柽柳灌丛分布的主导因素,其次是距海距离,土壤速效磷和地下水位次之。
