Effects of intercropping on photosynthetic rate and net photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency of maize under nitrogen addition

研究间作后作物光合碳同化和光合氮利用效率(PNUE)对氮投入的响应, 对阐释间作产量优势的氮调控效应, 指导间作氮肥管理有重要意义。本研究设置玉米(Zea mays)单作、玉米间作两种种植模式的4个氮水平(N0, 0 kg·hm ^-2; N1, 125 kg·hm ^-2; N2, 250 kg·hm ^-2; N3, 375 kg·hm ^-2), 分析间作与施氮量对玉米叶片特征、光合参数、PNUE和产量的影响。结果表明: 与单作相比, 间作显著增加玉米叶片的叶干质量和比叶质量; 各施氮水平(除N3)下, 间作中靠近马铃薯(Solanum tuberosum)侧的玉米叶面积均显著高于单作玉米。单间作对比发现, 间作提高了玉米光饱和点和暗呼吸速率。单作、间作靠玉米侧(I-M)、间作靠马铃薯侧(I-P)的玉米PNUE均随施氮量增加而降低, 降幅以I-P最大; 施氮量低于250 kg·hm ^-2时, 相同施氮量下的玉米PNUE和净光合速率(P_n)均以I-P最高, I-M和单作次之。间作显著提高了玉米产量(土地当量比>1)。该研究中当施氮量≤250 kg·hm ^-2时, 间作I-P的玉米叶片P_n和PNUE显著提高可能是间作玉米产量提高的重要原因。     

间作对氮调控玉米光合速率和光合氮利用效率的影响

研究间作后作物光合碳同化和光合氮利用效率(PNUE)对氮投入的响应, 对阐释间作产量优势的氮调控效应, 指导间作氮肥管理有重要意义。本研究设置玉米(Zea mays)单作、玉米间作两种种植模式的4个氮水平(N0, 0 kg·hm ^-2; N1, 125 kg·hm ^-2; N2, 250 kg·hm ^-2; N3, 375 kg·hm ^-2), 分析间作与施氮量对玉米叶片特征、光合参数、PNUE和产量的影响。结果表明: 与单作相比, 间作显著增加玉米叶片的叶干质量和比叶质量; 各施氮水平(除N3)下, 间作中靠近马铃薯(Solanum tuberosum)侧的玉米叶面积均显著高于单作玉米。单间作对比发现, 间作提高了玉米光饱和点和暗呼吸速率。单作、间作靠玉米侧(I-M)、间作靠马铃薯侧(I-P)的玉米PNUE均随施氮量增加而降低, 降幅以I-P最大; 施氮量低于250 kg·hm ^-2时, 相同施氮量下的玉米PNUE和净光合速率(P_n)均以I-P最高, I-M和单作次之。间作显著提高了玉米产量(土地当量比>1)。该研究中当施氮量≤250 kg·hm ^-2时, 间作I-P的玉米叶片P_n和PNUE显著提高可能是间作玉米产量提高的重要原因。

在大田条件下,设自然降水(W₁)、适量补水(W₂,拔节后土壤相对含水量维持在70%±5%)、充足补水(W₃,拔节后土壤相对含水量维持在85%±5%)3个水分处理和不施氮(N₁)、减氮(N₂,195 kg N·hm^-2)、高氮((N₃,270 kg N·hm^-2)3种氮肥水平,研究了减氮补水对小麦高产群体光照环境、光合性能和产量构成的影响.结果表明: 减氮补水(N₂W₂)处理在灌浆期明显改善了群体的光照环境,距冠层顶部20～30 cm处的光合有效辐射(PAR)较高氮补水(N₃W₂、N₃W₃)处理提高34.5%,透光率提高10.8%;N₂W₂处理孕穗期叶面积指数最高,灌浆期下降速率最慢,高值(大于7.6)持续期较高氮和无氮处理延长3～4 d,光合势平均提高9.7%;减氮补水(N₂W₂、N₂W₃)处理灌浆期旗叶的光合速率仍较高,但与N₃W₂处理差异不显著.N₂W₂处理旗叶的表观量子效率达0.101 μmol CO₂·m^-2·s^-1、P_n维持在27.692 μmol CO₂·m^-2·s^-1,光补偿点(LCP)较低,表现出较高的光合生产力;籽粒产量以N₂W₂处理最高.     

氮肥减施与配施有机肥对冬小麦土壤线虫群落结构的影响

土壤线虫是指示土壤健康的典型生物之一,为了揭示氮肥减施对土壤健康的影响,以冬小麦土壤为对象,研究了氮肥减施和配施有机肥对拔节期冬小麦土壤线虫群落结构的影响。共设置了6个施肥处理:CF(315 kg N·hm^-2,常规施肥量)、N₂₄₀(240 kg N·hm^-2)、N₂₁₀(210 kg N·hm^-2)、N₁₈₀(180 kg N·hm^-2)、F₁₅₀(180 kg N·hm^-2+150 kg·hm^-2黄腐酸)、F₂₂₅(180 kg N·hm^-2+225 kg·hm^-2黄腐酸)。结果表明: 1)氮肥减施会降低土壤线虫数量,降幅为15.3%～68.5%;2)各处理均以原杆属为优势属(19.6%～50.4%)。氮肥减施提高了食真菌类、植食类和捕食/杂食类线虫的丰度,食细菌类线虫的丰度先降低后升高。配施有机肥后,食细菌类和食真菌类线虫的丰度降低,植食类和捕食/杂食类线虫丰度升高;3)N₂₄₀和F₂₂₅处理分别使线虫多样性指数H提高了48.1%和58.5%。N₂₄₀处理线虫成熟度指数MI最高(1.95)。N₁₈₀处理线虫结构指数SI最低(43.33),配施有机肥的F₂₂₅线虫结构指数SI达到62.72,但线虫富集指数EI最低(80.82)。说明减施氮肥并配施有机肥可以提高土壤线虫的多样性,使食物网向复杂稳定方向发展,对农田土壤生态系统有积极意义。     

基于冠层塔吊原位测定长白山温带阔叶红松原始林群落主要树种的光合特征

为了更好地理解温带阔叶红松原始林群落主要树种的生理生态学特征,为森林生态系统碳动态的模拟预测提供基础数据,本研究依托中国科学院长白山森林生态系统定位站,首次利用冠层塔吊原位测定了阔叶红松原始林群落4个主要树种成熟大树的CO₂响应曲线,并利用FvCB模型计算了一些重要的光合生理参数.结果表明: 红松的光合速率(A)、最大羧化速率(V_{c max})和气孔导度(g_s)均最小,而其气孔对光合的限制性(L_s)最大.水曲柳、蒙古栎和紫椴这3个阔叶树种的光合特征也存在显著差异.基于叶片面积的V_{c max}大小顺序为:水曲柳(83.2 μmol·m^-2·s^-1)、蒙古栎(89.3 μmol·m^-2·s^-1)>紫椴(68.4 μmol·m^-2·s^-1)、红松(68.8 μmol·m^-2·s^-1)(P<0.05),而基于叶片质量的V_{c max}大小顺序为:水曲柳(1.36 μmol·g^-1·s^-1)>蒙古栎(1.03 μmol·g^-1·s^-1)>紫椴(0.90 μmol·g^-1·s^-1)>红松(0.42 μmol·g^-1·s^-1)(P<0.05).7—9月,水曲柳和蒙古栎的A值显著降低,而紫椴和红松的A值变化不显著;所有树种V_{c max}都随季节发生显著下降.在温带阔叶红松林生态系统碳动态的模拟预测中,应该考虑V_{c max}的季节变化.     

水肥一体化对小麦水分利用和光合特性的影响

于2016—2018年小麦生长季,在山东省兖州市史家王子村进行田间试验,供试品种为‘济麦22’,在150(N₁)、180(N₂)和210(N₃) kg·hm^-2 3个施氮量下,拔节期设置畦灌和撒施追氮(W₁)及微喷带灌溉和追氮水肥一体化(W₂)两种灌溉施氮方式,研究了测墒补灌条件下灌溉施氮方式对小麦水分利用、光合特性及干物质积累与转运的影响.结果表明: 同一施氮量条件下,W₂两年度灌浆期7日平均棵间蒸发量均显著低于W₁处理,60～160 cm 土层土壤水分消耗量显著高于W₁处理;W₂两年度开花后14、21和28 d的旗叶净光合速率、气孔导度和蒸腾速率均显著高于W₁处理;W₂开花期和成熟期干物质积累量及小麦开花后干物质积累在籽粒中的分配显著高于W₁处理;W₂两年度总耗水量与W₁处理均无显著差异,籽粒产量、水分利用效率和氮肥利用效率显著高于W₁处理,施氮量为210 kg·hm^-2的籽粒产量、水分利用效率和氮肥利用效率最高.综合考虑,同一施氮量水平下,微喷带灌溉和追氮水肥一体化处理优于畦灌和撒施追氮处理,总施氮量210 kg·hm^-2、拔节期采用微喷带灌溉和追氮水肥一体化的N₃W₂处理是本试验条件下节水节肥的最优处理.     

鲁西北平原冬小麦田臭氧浓度变化特征及对产量的潜在影响和机理分析

近地层高浓度臭氧(O₃)对农作物生长和产量形成有明显的影响。利用在中国科学院禹城综合试验站(山东省)冬小麦(Triticum aestivum)农田生态系统上观测的O₃浓度及微气象资料, 分析了鲁西北平原冬小麦农田生态系统O₃浓度的日变化和季节变化规律, 在此基础上初步分析了O₃浓度与CO₂通量(F_c)的关系, 并用欧洲和美国科学家在实验室得到的O₃浓度-冬小麦产量关系模型估算了O₃对冬小麦产量的潜在影响。结果表明: O₃浓度存在明显的日变化规律, 日最小值和最大值分别出现在7:00和16:00左右。整个观测期间(2011年3-5月)平均O₃浓度为(30.4 ± 20.1) nL·L ^-1(平均值±标准误差); 30 min平均浓度的最大值为93.1 nL·L ^-1。在冬小麦春季生长季节, O₃浓度日平均值呈现逐步增加的趋势, O₃浓度日均增加约为0.17 nL·L ^-1·d ^-1; 白天7 h和12 h平均浓度(M7和M12)分别为45.7和43.1 nL·L ^-1; O₃浓度超过40 nL·L ^-1的3个月累积值(AOT40)为9.8 μL·L ^-1·h; 超过60 nL·L ^-1的O₃浓度累积值(SUM06)为12.6 μL·L ^-1·h; 经过权重修正的O₃污染指标W126为10.1 μL·L ^-1·h。在高浓度O₃ (>60 nL·L ^-1)情况下, CO₂通量与O₃浓度呈现负相关关系, 鲁西北平原O₃对冬小麦光合作用影响的阈值取60 nL·L ^-1比较合适, 该值高于欧洲国家普遍采用的40 nL·L ^-1。基于以上结果, 初步估算得出: 在目前的O₃浓度水平下, 鲁西北平原近地层O₃可能会使冬小麦产量减少5.2%-8.8%。     

氮磷肥配施对超高产冬小麦灌浆期光合日变化及产量的影响

在大田超高产条件下,研究了氮磷肥配施对超高产冬小麦济麦22灌浆期光合日变化及产量的影响.结果表明：对照(不施氮磷肥)和低氮低磷处理(N、P分别为225和75 kg·hm^-2)的净光合速率(P_n)日变化均呈双峰曲线,有明显的光合“午休”现象,而合理的氮磷处理(N₂P₂,N、P分别为300和150 kg·hm^-2)可以减弱甚至使光合“午休”现象消失;“午休”现象的产生是气孔因素与非气孔因素共同作用的结果.随施肥量增加,小麦的P_n、气孔导度(G_s)、气孔限制值(L_s)和蒸腾速率(T_r)均逐渐增强.磷素对小麦光合作用的影响程度小于氮素,当施磷量超过150 kg·hm^-2时,小麦P_n随施磷量的增加程度有所减缓,甚至下降,各处理中以N₂P₂处理P_n、G_s和水分利用效率与对照差异最显著.表明氮肥对超高产小麦光合日变化有较大的调节作用,磷肥次之,而氮磷肥配施对P_n、G_s、T_r存在极显著的互作效应.当N、P分别为300和150 kg·hm^-2时有利于提高超高产冬小麦的P_n和产量.     

Construction of CO2-response model of electron transport rate in C4 crop and its application

准确估算光合电子流对CO₂响应的变化趋势对深入了解光合过程具有重要意义。该研究在植物光合作用对CO₂响应新模型(模型I)的基础上构建了电子传递速率(J)对CO₂的响应模型(模型II), 并对用LI-6400-40便携式光合仪测量的玉米(Zea mays)和千穗谷(Amaranthus hypochondriacus)的数据进行了拟合。结果表明, 模型II可以很好地拟合玉米和千穗谷叶片J对CO₂浓度的响应曲线(J-C_a曲线), 得到玉米和千穗谷的最大电子传递速率分别为262.41和393.07 mmol·m ^-2·s ^-1, 与估算值相符合。在此基础上, 对光合电子流分配到其他路径进行了探讨。结果显示, 380 mmol·mol ^-1 CO₂浓度下玉米和千穗谷碳同化所需的电子流为247.92和285.16 mmol·m ^-2·s ^-1, 分配到其他途径的光合电子流为14.49和107.91 mmol·m ^-2·s ^-1(考虑植物CO₂的回收利用)。比较两种植物的其他途径光合电子流分配值发现, 两者相差6倍之多。分析认为这与千穗谷和玉米的催化脱羧反应酶种类以及脱羧反应发生的部位不同密切相关。该发现为人们研究C₄植物中烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷磷酸苹果酸酶型和烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸苹果酸酶型两种亚型之间的差异提供了一个新的视角。此外, 构建的电子传递速率对CO₂的响应模型为人们研究C₄植物的光合电子流的变化规律提供了一个可供选择的数学工具。

采用盆栽实验研究了Zn (0、1.0、5.0、10.0和20.0 mg·kg ^-1)对不同油菜品种(‘罗平金菜子’ (Brassica juncea)、‘二牛尾’ (B. juncea)、‘溧阳苦菜’ (B. juncea)、‘南通黄油菜’ (B. chinensis)、‘H33’ (B. napus))的光合特性、根尖细胞超微结构及籽粒富锌的影响。结果显示, 5个油菜品种在品种之间、Zn处理浓度之间, 根、茎、叶、籽粒及植株干重、光合特性、Zn含量和积累量的差异性均达到显著水平; 品种与Zn浓度的交互效应也达到显著水平。在Zn ≤ 5.0 mg·kg ^-1范围内, Zn增加了超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)等抗氧化酶活性、净光合速率(P_n)、气孔导度(G_s)以及蒸腾速率(T_r), 提高了油菜茎、叶、籽粒干重及总干重。油菜产量(籽粒干重)在5.0 mg·kg ^-1 Zn时达到最大值, 各品种分别较对照增加了37.7%、23.4%、29.5%、82.6%和18.0%。在Zn处理浓度为20.0 mg·kg ^-1时, ‘罗平金菜子’、‘二牛尾’、‘南通黄油菜’和‘溧阳苦菜’根尖细胞出现不同程度的线粒体肿胀、细胞壁增厚、细胞核萎缩且内容物较少, 而‘H33’中根尖细胞结构较CK处理差异不明显, 细胞结构较为完整。5个品种的籽粒Zn积累量随Zn浓度先增加, 在5.0 mg·kg ^-1 Zn时达到最大值, 然后下降。‘二牛尾’的籽粒Zn含量和籽粒Zn积累量在5.0和10.0 mg·kg ^-1 Zn处理时为5个品种最高或次高, 分别为172.34和164.10 mg·kg ^-1、2.932和2.575 mg·pot ^-1。     

限水灌溉冬小麦冠层氮分布与转运特征及其对供氮的响应

以高产冬小麦品种周麦18为材料,在大田春灌1水条件下,设置不同供氮水平和氮肥运筹处理试验,研究并探讨了在华北地区限水灌溉条件下氮肥施用对冬小麦冠层叶片氮素时空分布与转运及氮肥利用的影响。结果表明,冬小麦适量施氮可显著增产,2008-2009年以施氮量180 kg/hm²时(N21)产量最高,为8749 kg/hm²;2009-2010年以施氮量270 kg/hm²时(N32)产量最高,但施氮量210 kg/hm²(N22)处理与N32处理产量无显著差异,分别为8340 kg/hm²和8558 kg/hm²。氮肥利用效率和氮肥偏生产力均随施氮量增加而降低;氮肥利用率与氮肥农学效率均随施氮量的增加呈先升后降的趋势,分别在N21和N22处理时最高。冠层叶片氮素含量和积累量随叶层层次自上而下降低而下降,垂直梯度分明,各时期冠层叶片氮素垂直梯度随施氮量的增加总体呈先增大后减小的趋势。冠层叶片氮素转运量、转运率和对籽粒的贡献率均呈现为:第1层>第2层>第3层>第4层。相关分析表明,冠层叶片氮素梯度与叶片氮素转运率呈显著正相关关系(R²=0.722^*),与贡献率呈极显著正相关关系(R²=0.975^**)。适量施氮(120-210 kg/hm²)增大了叶层间氮素垂直分布梯度,促进了氮素在植株内的运移分配,有利于叶片氮素向外转运,提高了叶片氮素转运量和对籽粒贡献率,保持了较高的氮素利用率。施氮过多(330 kg/hm²)减小了叶层间氮素垂直分布梯度,减弱了氮素在植株内的再利用,叶片氮素转运不畅,导致叶片氮素转运量和对籽粒贡献率下降,氮素利用率显著降低。连续两年试验结果显示,通过适量氮肥调控可以增大冠层叶片氮素垂直梯度,有利于叶片中的氮素输出,促进氮素的再分配、再利用,从而提高氮素利用率,并可获得较高的籽粒产量和蛋白质含量。     

Photosynthesis,respiration, and carbon allocation of two cool-season perennial grasses in response to surface soil drying

The study was conducted to investigate carbon metabolic responses to surface soil drying for cool-season grasses. Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) and tall fescue (Festuca arundinaceae Schreb.) were grown in a greenhouse in split tubes consisting of two sections. Plants were subjected to three soil moisture regimes: (1) well-watered control; (2) drying of upper 20-cm soil (upper drying); and (3) drying of whole 40-cm soil profile (full drying). Upper drying for 30 d had no dramatic effects on leaf water potential (Ψ_leaf) and canopy photosynthetic rate (P_n) in either grass species compared to the well-watered control, but it reduced canopy respiration rate (R_canopy) and root respiration rate in the top 20 cm of soil (R_top). For both species in the lower 20 cm of wet soil, root respiration rates (R_bottom) were similar to the control levels, and carbon allocation to roots increased with the upper soil drying, particularly for tall fescue. The proportion of roots decreased in the 0-20 cm drying soil, but increased in the lower 20 cm wet soil for both grass species; the increase was greater for tall fescue. The Ψ_leaf, P_n, R_canopy, R_top, R_bottom, and carbon allocation to roots in both soil layers were all significantly higher for upper dried plants than for fully dried plants of both grass species. The reductions in R_canopy and R_top in surface drying soil and increases in root respiration and carbon allocation to roots in lower wet soil could help these grasses cope with surface-soil drought stress. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Influence of stand structure on carbon-13 of vegetation, soils, and canopy air within deciduous and evergreen forests in Utah, United States

Carbon isotope ratios (δ¹³C) were studied in evergreen and deciduous forest ecosystems in semi-arid Utah (Pinus contorta, Populus tremuloides, Acer negundo and Acer grandidentatum). Measurements were taken in four to five stands of each forest ecosystem differing in overstory leaf area index (LAI) during two consecutive growing seasons. The δ¹³C_leaf (and carbon isotope discrimination) of understory vegetation in the evergreen stands (LAI 1.5–2.2) did not differ among canopies with increasing LAI, whereas understory in the deciduous stands (LAI 1.5–4.5) exhibited strongly decreasing δ¹³C_leaf values (increasing carbon isotope discrimination) with increasing LAI. The δ¹³C values of needles and leaves at the top of the canopy were relatively constant over the entire LAI range, indicating no change in intrinsic water-use efficiency with overstory LAI. In all canopies, δ¹³C_leaf decreased with decreasing height above the forest floor, primarily due to physiological changes affecting c _i/c _a (> 60%) and to a minor extent due to δ¹³C of canopy air (< 40%). This intra-canopy depletion of δ¹³C_leaf was lowest in the open stand (1‰) and greatest in the denser stands (4.5‰). Although overstory δ¹³C_leaf did not change with canopy LAI, δ¹³C of soil organic carbon increased with increasing LAI in Pinus contorta and Populus tremuloides ecosystems. In addition, δ¹³C of decomposing organic carbon became increasingly enriched over time (by 1.7–2.9‰) for all deciduous and evergreen dry temperate forests. The δ¹³C_canopy of CO₂ in canopy air varied temporally and spatially in all forest stands. Vertical canopy gradients of δ¹³C_canopy, and [CO₂]_canopy were larger in the deciduous Populus tremuloides than in the evergreen Pinu contorta stands of similar LAI. In a very wet and cool year, ecosystem discrimination (Δ_e) was similar for both deciduous Populus tremulodies (18.0 ± 0.7‰) and evergreen Pinus contorta (18.3 ± 0.9‰) stands. Gradients of δ¹³C_canopy and [CO₂]_canopy were larger in denser Acer spp. stands than those in the open stand. However, ¹³C enrichment above and photosynthetic draw-down of [CO₂]_canopy below tropospheric baseline values were larger in the open than in the dense stands, due to the presence of a vigorous understory vegetation. Seasonal patterns of the relationship δ¹³C_canopy versus 1/[CO₂]_canopy were strongly influenced by precipitation and air temperature during the growing season. Estimates of Δ_e for Acer spp. did not show a significant effect of stand structure, and averaged 16.8 ± 0.5‰ in 1933 and 17.4 ± 0.7‰ in 1994. However, Δ_e varied seasonally with small fluctuations for the open stand (2‰), but more pronounced changes for the dense stand (5‰). Received: 15 April 1996 / Accepted: 19 October 1996     

Temporal expression of effects of varying nitrogen supply on canopy growth, photosynthesis and fruit production for Actinidia deliciosa vines in the field

The effects of varying nitrogen supply on canopy leaf area, response of leaf net photosynthesis (A_n) to quantum flux density (Q), and fruit yields of kiwifruit vines (Actinidia deliciosa var. deliciosa) were examined in a two-year field experiment. Vines were grown with 0, 250 or 750 kg N ha^?1 year^?1. The responses to nitrogen supply were compared with responses to shade, to examine the impact of reduced carbon assimilation on canopy leaf area and fruit yields. Nitrogen supply did not affect significantly any of the measured variables during the first season of the experiment. In the second season, canopy leaf area was reduced significantly where nitrogen supply was limited. The quantum efficiency of photosynthesis (φ_q) increased from 0. 03 mol CO₂ mol^?1 Q soon after leaf emergence to more than 0. 05 mol CO₂ mol^?1 Q during the middle of the growing season. The quantum saturated rate of A_n (A_sat) also increased during the season, from 7–10 μmol CO₂ m^?2 s^?1 soon after leaf emergence, to 15–20 (μmol CO₂ m^?2 s^?1 during the middle of the growing season. φ_q and A_sat increased significantly with nitrogen supply at all measurement times during the second season. For vines with high nitrogen, fruit yields in both seasons were similar, averaging 3. 05 kg m^?2. Fruit yields in the second season were reduced significantly where nitrogen supply was limited, due to reduced fruit numbers. The relative effects of reduced leaf area and reduced leaf photosynthesis for carbon assimilation by nitrogen deficient vines were examined using a mathematical model of canopy photosynthesis for kiwifruit vines. Simulations of canopy photosynthesis indicated that effects on leaf area and on leaf photosynthesis were of similar importance in the overall effects of nitrogen deficiency on carbon assimilation. The effects of nitrogen supply on fruit numbers (i. e. flower development) preceded the measured effects on carbon assimilation, indicating that the nitrogen supply affected carbon partitioning to reserves in the first season.     

Interseasonal comparison of CO2 concentrations, isotopic composition, and carbon dynamics in an Amazonian rainforest (French Guiana)

Canopy CO₂ concentrations in a tropical rainforest in French Guiana were measured continuously for 5 days during the 1994 dry season and the 1995 wet season. Carbon dioxide concentrations ([CO₂]) throughout the canopy (0.02–38 m) showed a distinct daily pattern, were well-stratified and decreased with increasing height into the canopy. During both seasons, daytime [CO₂] in the upper and middle canopy decreased on average 7–10 μmol mol⁻¹ below tropospheric baseline values measured at Barbados. Within the main part of the canopy (≥ 0.7 m), [CO₂] did not differ between the wet and dry seasons. In contrast, [CO₂] below 0.7 m were generally higher during the dry season, resulting in larger [CO₂] gradients. Supporting this observation, soil CO₂ efflux was on average higher during the dry season than during the wet season, either due to diffusive limitations and/or to oxygen deficiency of root and microbial respiration. Soil respiration rates decreased by 40% after strong rain events, resulting in a rapid decrease in canopy [CO₂] immediately above the forest floor of about 50␣μmol mol⁻¹. Temporal and spatial variations in [CO₂]_canopy were reflected in changes of δ¹³C_canopy and δ¹⁸O_canopy values. Tight relationships were observed between δ¹³C and δ¹⁸O of canopy CO₂ during both seasons (r ² > 0.86). The most depleted δ¹³C_canopy and δ¹⁸O_canopy values were measured immediately above the forest floor (δ¹³C = −16.4‰; δ¹⁸O = 39.1‰ SMOW). Gradients in the isotope ratios of CO₂ between the top of the canopy and the forest floor ranged between 2.0‰ and 6.3‰ for δ¹³C, and between 1.0‰ and 3.5‰ for δ¹⁸O. The δ¹³C_leaf and calculated c _i/c _a of foliage at three different positions were similar for the dry and wet seasons indicating that the canopy maintained a constant ratio of photosynthesis to stomatal conductance. About 20% of the differences in δ¹³C_leaf within the canopy was accounted for by source air effects, the remaining 80% must be due to changes in c _i/c _a. Plotting 1/[CO₂] vs. the corresponding δ¹³C ratios resulted in very tight, linear relationships (r ² = 0.99), with no significant differences between the two seasons, suggesting negligible seasonal variability in turbulent mixing relative to ecosystem gas exchange. The intercepts of these relationships that should be indicative of the δ¹³C of respired sources were close to the measured δ¹³C of soil respired CO₂ and to the δ¹³C of litter and soil organic matter. Estimates of carbon isotope discrimination of the entire ecosystem, Δ_e, were calculated as 20.3‰ during the dry season and as 20.5‰ during the wet season.

Modelling the discrimination of 13CO2 above and within a temperate broad-leaved forest canopy on hourly to seasonal time scales

Fluxes and concentrations of carbon dioxide and ¹³CO₂ provide information about ecosystem physiological processes and their response to environmental variation. The biophysical model, CANOAK, was adapted to compute concentration profiles and fluxes of ¹³CO₂ within and above a temperate deciduous forest (Walker Branch Watershed, Tennessee, USA). Modifications to the model are described and the ability of the new model (CANISOTOPE) to simulate concentration profiles of ¹³CO₂, its flux density across the canopy–atmosphere interface and leaf‐level photosynthetic discrimination against ¹³CO₂ is demonstrated by comparison with field measurements. The model was used to investigate several aspects of carbon isotope exchange between a forest ecosystem and the atmosphere. During the 1998 growing season, the mean photosynthetic discrimination against ¹³CO₂, by the deciduous forest canopy (Δ_canopy), was computed to be 22·4‰, but it varied between 18 and 27‰. On a diurnal basis, the greatest discrimination occurred during the early morning and late afternoon. On a seasonal time scale, the greatest diurnal range in Δ_canopy occurred early and late in the growing season. Diurnal and seasonal variations in Δ_canopy resulted from a strong dependence of Δ_canopy on photosynthetically active radiation and vapour pressure deficit of air. Model calculations also revealed that the relationship between canopy‐scale water use efficiency (CO₂ assimilation/transpiration) and Δ_canopy was positive due to complex feedbacks among fluxes, leaf temperature and vapour pressure deficit, a finding that is counter to what is predicted for leaves exposed to well‐mixed environments.     

施氮肥缓解臭氧对小麦光合作用和产量的影响

以小麦(Triticum aestivum)品种‘扬麦16’为试材, 利用开放式空气臭氧(O₃)浓度升高平台, 研究了增施氮(N)肥对O₃对小麦光合作用和产量影响的缓解作用。结果表明, O₃胁迫下灌浆期小麦的净光合速率(P_n)、气孔导度(G_s)、蒸腾速率(T_r)、叶绿素a (Chl a)、叶绿素b (Chl b)、类胡萝卜素(Car)、总叶绿素含量(Chl t)和可溶性蛋白的含量显著降低, 降幅分别为28.95%、31.79%、23.17%、58.89%、68.64%、22.89%、60.31%和32.00%; 胞间CO₂浓度(C_i)变化很小; 成熟期生物量和收获时产量也明显下降, 降幅分别为12.23%和12.63%; 而增施N肥可以增加小麦灌浆期的P_n、Chl a、Chl b、可溶性蛋白的含量, 进而增加小麦生物量和产量, 增幅分别为25.66%、83.05%、121.57%、30.33%、14.94%和10.67%, 而对C_i、G_s、T_r、Car含量无明显影响。O₃和N肥对小麦叶片的P_n、Chl t及可溶性蛋白含量有明显的交互作用。因此, 在大气O₃浓度升高条件下增施N肥对小麦O₃损伤有一定的缓解作用。     

秸秆还田配施不同比例化肥对晚稻产量及土壤养分的影响

在不同秸秆还田方式对早稻的效应研究确定的最佳还田方式和还田量(粉碎还田3000 kg/hm2)基础上,以单施秸秆为对照,研究了秸秆还田配施不同比例化肥对晚稻产量、干物质积累与分配及土壤养分的影响。结果表明:(1)与对照相比,秸秆3000 kg/hm2+N 150 kg/hm2+P2O575 kg/hm2+K2O 37.5 kg/hm2增产效果最为显著,在水稻的每穗粒数、千粒重、结实率、充实度和产量等方面增加幅度最大,分别为9.32%、4.28%、13.70%、2.74%和26.38%。(2)各处理的干物质茎鞘比例随着生育进程不断降低,从孕穗期的66.68%—77.00%降低至成熟期的25.97%—34.79%,除SNPK1外,叶片比例从孕穗期的23.00%—33.32%降低至成熟期的7.41%—21.03%;秸秆还田配施不同比例化肥处理的茎鞘比例在孕穗期、抽穗期和成熟期高于对照,而叶片比例与茎鞘比例呈相反趋势。(3)与对照相比,秸秆还田配施不同比例化肥处理提高了土壤pH值、有机碳、全氮、碱解氮、全磷、有效磷、全钾、速效钾,降低了土壤C/N比。研究结果说明,秸秆还田配施不同比例化肥可以提高植株干物质积累速率、群体生物量,合理改善土壤养分,保证较高的水稻增产潜力,其中秸秆3000 kg/hm2+N 150 kg/hm2+P2O575 kg/hm2+K2O 37.5 kg/hm2效果最为显著。     

油松幼苗水分传输效率及安全性对养分和水分添加的响应

探讨油松水分传输效率和安全性对养分和水分添加的响应是揭示其适应性的基础。该试验采用新改进的离心机技术,以2年生油松幼苗当年生枝为材料,试验设置对照（CK,不施肥、自然降水）、氮磷养分添加（F,按每年120 kg/hm²纯N和60 kg/hm²纯P水平添加N和P素,自然降水）及养分和水分同时添加（FI,按每年120 kg/ hm²纯N和60 kg/hm²纯P水平添加N素和P素,且补水100 mm）3个处理,研究了油松幼苗水分传输效率和栓塞脆弱性对氮磷养分和水分添加的响应。结果表明：（1）与CK相比,氮磷养分添加（F）增加了油松幼苗地径、冠幅和地上部生物量,但对比导水率（K_s）、比叶导水率（LSC）、Huber值、抵抗栓塞能力（P₅₀）及水分传输安全阈值均影响不大。（2）氮磷和水分同时添加处理（FI）的地径、株高、冠幅和地上部生物量显著高于CK和F处理,其K_s、LSC和Huber值与CK及F处理相比并无显著差异,但P₅₀比CK和F处理增加0.2 MPa左右,且水分传输安全阈值相对变小。研究表明,养分添加对油松幼苗当年生枝的水分传输效率和安全性影响不大,水分添加对水分传输效率亦无显著影响,但降低了水分传输的安全性,原因主要与管胞长度增加及管胞壁抗爆破阻力下降有关。     

Field investigations of ammonia exchange between barley plants and the atmosphere. I. Concentration profiles and flux densities of ammonia

The exchange of ammonia between the atmosphere and the canopy of spring barley crops growing at three levels of nitrogen application (medium N, high N and excessive N) was studied over two consecutive growing seasons by use of micrometeorological techniques. In most cases, ammonia was emitted from the canopy to the atmosphere. The emission started around 2 weeks before anthesis, and peaked about or shortly after anthesis. The volatilization of ammonia only took place in the daytime. During the night-time, atmospheric ammonia was frequently aborbed by the canopy. Occasionally, plants in the medium and high N treatments also absorbed ammonia from the atmosphere during the daytime. Daytime absorption of ammonia never occurred in the excessive N canopy. The loss of ammonia from the canopy amounted in both years to 0.5–1.5 kg NH₃-N ha^?1 and increased with the N status of the canopy. In agreement with the small losses of ammonia, the content of ¹⁵N-labelled nitrogen in the plants did not decline during the grain-filling period. The experimental years were characterized by very favourable conditions for grain dry matter formation, and for re-utilization of nitrogen mobilized from leaves and stems. Consequently, a very high part of the nitrogen in the mature plants was located in grain dry matter (80–84% in 1989; 74–80% in 1990). The efficient re-utilization of nitrogen may have reduced the volatilization of ammonia.
