Quercus garryana habitats are increasingly being managed with prescribed fire, but acorn dependent wildlife might be adversely affected if
fires damage acorn crops. We examined one way that fire might affect subsequent acorn crops: through direct heating and damage
of buds containing the following year’s floral organs. We measured internal bud temperatures during controlled time and temperature
treatments, described damage to heated buds at the tissue and cellular levels and quantified spring flowering to assess the
consequences of the treatments. We found that internal bud temperature was logarithmically related to exposure time and linearly
related to treatment temperature. Tissue damage was more common in bud scales, staminate and bud scale scar primordia than
in leaf, pistillate, leaf axillary primordia and apical meristems. Damaged tissues were sequestered by cells with thickened
cell walls. A 133°C treatment applied for 60 s produced minimal damage or mortality, but damage increased rapidly in hotter
or longer treatments, culminating in 100% mortality at 273°C for 60 s. Our experiments account only for radiative, not convective
heating, but suggest that fires might produce sublethal effects that affect flowering and acorn crops. Q. garryana’s large buds possess an internal organ arrangement well suited to minimizing heat damage.

The germination response of different sized seeds from individuals of a Mediterranean fire-prone shrub (Cistus ladanifer) was investigated in relation to pre-germination heating. A control (no heating), a low temperature during a short exposure
time (50°C during 5 min), a high temperature during a short exposure time (100°C during 5 min) and a high temperature during
a long exposure time (100°C during 15 min) were applied to seeds from different individual plants with different mean seed
weight. These pre-germination treatments resemble natural germination scenarios for the studied species, absence of fire,
low intensity pasture fire, typical Mediterranean shrub fire, and severe fire with high fuel load. Mean seed weight only showed
a marginally significant positive correlation with the proportion of germinated seeds whatever the pre-germination treatment.
These results suggest that seed dormancy is unrelated to seed size and that under the experimental conditions used in this
study, the effect of seed size on seed germination is low. Nevertheless, larger seeds could be favoured in natural conditions,
especially under the high competition scenario which arise after wildfires. Control seeds showed a negative correlation between
seed size and germination velocity suggesting that lighter seeds could take advantage from early germination in recruitment
events in the absence of wildfires. Nevertheless, even the lower pre-germination heating treatment turns this correlation
in not significant, suggesting a strong selection pressure (unrelated to seed size) for early germination after fire events.
In our study, different sized seeds of C. ladanifer seem to perform better under different germination scenarios suggesting that seed size variation could be maintained by the
alternation of recruitments without wildfires and recruitments after wildfire events. 相似文献

In grassy ecosystems of south‐eastern Australia, fire maintains richness of native forbs. It is commonly thought that fire promotes regeneration indirectly by reducing competition for light and providing gaps for recruitment, rather than directly stimulating germination. However, physiological dormancy and morphophysiological dormancy are common, and few studies have explored responses to fire‐cues among dormant or hard‐to‐germinate forbs. Recent studies from other fire‐prone ecosystems suggest that in some cases, fire‐cues may not alleviate physiological or morphophysiological dormancy, but instead promote germination in combination with treatments which alleviate dormancy. We experimentally tested the prevailing hypothesis that perennial forbs common in south‐eastern Australian grassy ecosystems do not germinate in direct response to fire. Responses to fire‐cues both inherently and in combination with treatments which alleviate dormancy were investigated for seven species. Two fire‐cues (smoke and heat) plus a treatment of both heat + smoke were applied to fresh seed at three temperatures (35/25°C, 30/20°C and 25/15°C). Following this, the effect of fire‐cues on seed that had undergone warm stratification, cold stratification and dry‐after‐ripening was investigated. Three species — Arthropodium strictum, Cheiranthera cyanea and Dianella revoluta — responded to fire‐cues inherently, although germination in C. cyanea was low. High germination of D. revoluta was found when fire‐cues were combined with warm stratification. Fire‐cues had no effect on germination of Brunonia australis, Burchardia umbellata and Eryngium ovinum. Germination of Stypandra glauca was zero following all treatment combinations. Our finding that fire‐cues promote germination of three of the seven study species did not provide sufficient evidence to reject the current hypothesis that germination of perennial forbs is not typically promoted by fire‐cues. However, this study highlights the important direct role fire‐cues can play in promoting germination of some perennial forbs both inherently and in combination with treatments used to alleviate physiological dormancy. 相似文献

Fuel management techniques are commonly used in shrublands to reduce wildfire risk. However, more information about the ecological
effects of these treatments is needed by managers and ecologists. In an effort to address this need, we performed a replicated
(4 replicates per treatment) 48-ha experiment in northern California chaparral dominated by Adenostoma fasciculatum to determine the effects of two fuel reduction types (prescribed fire and mastication) and three different seasons of treatment
(fall, winter, and spring) on shrub cover, height, and seedling density. Exclosures (2.5 m2 each) were also used to assess herbivory effects. By the third post-treatment year, prescribed fire treatments had higher
shrub cover (71 ± 2%) than mastication (43 ± 4%). There was no treatment effect on shrub height, species richness, or composition.
Seedling density was initially higher in prescribed fire treatments (31 ± 4 seedlings m−2) than mastication (3 ± 0 seedlings m−2); however, prescribed fire treatments experienced substantial mortality, especially spring burning, resulting in lower densities
3 years after treatments (18 ± 0 seedlings m−2 after fall and winter fire compared to 2 ± 0 seedlings m−2 after spring fire). A. fasciculatum remained the dominant shrub species after the treatments, and Ceanothus cuneatus recruitment was higher in fall burning. Deer herbivory only affected shrub height, especially in masticated units, resulting
in heights of 55 ± 2 cm in unexclosed areas compared to 66 ± 4 cm inside exclosures by the third post-treatment year. Overall,
our findings suggest that fuel treatments play an important role in shrubland community dynamics, at least in the short-term,
with implications for re-treatment frequency, community structure, and wildlife habitat. 相似文献

The effect of incubation and rearing temperature on muscle development and swimming endurance under a high-intensity swimming test was investigated in juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in a hatchery experiment. After controlling for the effects of fork length (LF) and parental identity, times to fatigue of fish were higher when fish were incubated or reared at warmer temperatures. Significant differences among combinations of pre- and post-emergence temperatures conformed to 15–15°C > 15–9°C > 9–9°C > 7–9°C > 7–7°C in 2011 when swimming tests were conducted at 300 accumulated temperature units post-emergence and 15–9°C > (7–9°C = 7–7°C) in 2012 when swimming tests were conducted at an LF of c. 40 mm. The combination of pre- and post-emergence temperatures also affected the number and size of muscle fibres, with differences among temperature treatments in mean fibre cross-sectional area persisting after controlling for LF and parental effects. Nonetheless, neither fibre number nor fibre size accounted for significant variation in swimming endurance. Thus, thermal carryover effects on swimming endurance were not mediated by thermal imprinting of muscle structure. This is the first study to test how temperature, body size and muscle structure interact to affect swimming endurance during early development in salmon. 相似文献

We used hand-pollination experiments to test the mating systems of and evaluate limits to seed production in two federally listed endangered plants endemic to the Lake Wales Ridge in Florida, USA: Dicerandra frutescens Shinners ssp. frutescens Huck and D. christmanii Huck and Judd (Lamiaceae). Both are nonclonal, short-lived perennials found in gaps created by disturbance (e.g., fire, roads) in Florida scrub. We found that both species require pollen and insect visitation to produce seeds. We detected pollinator limitation of seed production in D. christmanii but not D. frutescens ssp. frutescens, which we suggest is a function of time-since-disturbance or gap size rather than intrinsic differences between the two species. Both species are self-compatible. Inbreeding depression reduced seed set by 60% in D. frutescens ssp. frutescens but did not occur in D. christmanii. We conclude that pollinator limitation (in fire-suppressed populations of both species) and inbreeding depression (in D. frutescens ssp. frutescens) have the potential to limit seed production in these seed-dependent, rare species. Appropriate fire management should mitigate both of these risks, by maintaining large populations and conditions attractive to pollinators. Although these two species are very similar in reproductive biology, comparisons with other Florida scrub endemics and with rare plants in general suggest that potential threats to conservation via reproductive biology are difficult to predict, depending on combinations of ecology, life-history, and phylogenetic history. 相似文献

We investigated the influence of root zone temperature (RZT) and the aerial application of paraquat on stress defence mechanisms
of Trichosanthes cucumerina L. To achieve this objective, T. cucumerina cv Green was grown with roots at 25 and 30°C root zone temperature and maintained at 20 ± 1°C air temperature in a growth
chamber. These RZT and air temperature had earlier been shown to favor growth and fruit production in T. cucumerina. Plants at each RZT were subjected to paraquat treatment (+P) and without paraquat treatment (−P). Paraquat (0.2 mmol/L)
was applied as aerial spray. Results showed that the individual main effects of RZT and paraquat treatments significantly
affected the chlorophyll fluorescence and gas exchange parameters, while the interaction of both treatments had no significant
effect. Results showed that the total phenolics and ascorbic acid contents of T. cucumerina at 30°C were significantly higher than at 25°C. The T. cucumerina plants in +P treatment recorded significantly lower maximum photochemical efficiency (F
v/F
m), net photosynthesis (A), transpiration rate (E), intercellular CO2 concentration (C
i) and stomatal conductance (g
1) compared to untreated plants. Also, plants raised at 30°C recorded significantly higher F
v/F
m, A, E, C
i and g
1 compared to plants raised at 25°C. Plants that were sampled at 48 h after paraquat treatment recorded a higher degree of
oxidative damage compared to those sampled at 24 h after treatment. We showed that the degree of damage suffered by T. cucumerina, when treated with paraquat either at 25 or 30°C RZT was similar at 48 h after treatment. We concluded that either at 25
or 30°C, exposure of T. cucumerina to paraquat would impose the same degree of oxidative damage. 相似文献

The effects of three salinities (0, 100 and 500 mM NaCl) and four constant temperatures (10, 20, 30 and 35 °C) on seed germination of Halostachys caspica (M. B.) C. A. Mey., Kalidium foliatum (Pall.) Mop. and Halocnemum strobilaceum (Pall.) Bieb. were investigated. After seeds were treated with different concentrations of NaCl at constant temperatures
of 10–35 °C for 16 days, ungerminated seeds were transferred to distilled water for 10 days to investigate the total germination;
after this time, the ungerminated seeds from the 10 and 20 °C treatments were then moved to 35 °C for another 5 days to determine
the final germination. The three plant species in the present experiment are salt-resistant euhalophytes growing in high saline
soils in the Zhungur Basin in Xinjiang, a northwest province of China.Compared with germination under control conditions,
germination percentages of all three species were not affected by 100 mM NaCl at 10–35 °C, while severely inhibited by 500 mM NaCl; germination percentages were very low at 10 °C up to 100 mM NaCl for all species; the optimum temperature for germination of H. caspica and K. foliatum was 20–30 °C, while 35 °C for H. strobilaceum, up to 100 mM NaCl; seeds did not suffer ion toxicity for all species, as evidenced by the high total germination after ungerminated seeds
pretreated with 500 mM NaCl were transferred to distilled water at constant temperatures of 10–35 °C for 10 days, and the high final germination
after the ungerminated seeds from the 10 and 20 °C treatments were subsequently moved to 35 °C for another 5 days; Halostachys caspica had greater sensitivity to increasing temperatures from 10 and 20 °C to 35 °C compared with the other two species. 相似文献

The effect of several alkali treatments on the yield, gel strength, rheology, and chemical characteristics (quality) of the
agar obtained from Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis from the Gulf of California was analyzed using different alkali concentrations, temperatures and treatment times. In the
first stage of the experiment, all treatments lasted 60 min and the NaOH concentrations (2.5, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0%) and temperature
(80, 90, 100°C) varied. At constant time, temperature played the predominant role, promoting an increase in agar gel strength.
Based on the best treatment conditions found (4% and 5% NaOH, and 90°C and 100°C temperature), in the second stage different
treatment times (15, 30, 60, 90, 120 min) were used. Since agar yields were not significantly different among temperatures
and times, the optimal conditions to obtain best quality agar were those providing the highest gel strength. Treatment time
played an important role in increasing gel strength. Maximum gel strength (Nikan, 954 g cm−2) was obtained with 5% NaOH at 100°C after 90 min of treatment, though these conditions resulted in an agar yield reduction
of 25.5% relative to native agar. This treatment proved to efficiently yield G. lemaneiformis agar that will meet the commercial quality requirements regarding gel strength, 3,6 anhydrogalactose and sulfate content,
as well as rheology and hysteresis.

Arctic ground squirrels overwintering in northern Alaska experience average soil temperature of −10°C. To examine energetic
costs of arousing from hibernation under arctic compared to temperate conditions, captive ground squirrels were maintained
in ambient temperatures (T
a) of 2, −5 and −12°C. Rates of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production were used to estimate metabolic rate and fuel
use during the three phases of arousal episodes: rewarming, euthermia, and recooling. Respiratory quotient comparisons suggest
exclusive use of lipid during rewarming and mixed fuel use during euthermia. Animals rewarming from torpor at T
a −12°C took longer, consumed more oxygen, and attained higher peak rates of oxygen consumption when compared to 2°C. T
a had no significant effect on cost or duration of the euthermic phase. Animals recooled faster at −12°C than at 2°C, but total
oxygen consumption was not different. T
a had no significant effect on the total cost of arousal episodes when all three phases are included. Arousal episodes account
for 86% of estimated costs of a complete hibernation cycle including torpor when at 2°C and only 23% at −12°C. Thus, due to
the higher costs of steady-state metabolism during torpor, proportional metabolic costs of arousal episodes at T
a characteristic of the Arctic are diminished compared to relative costs of arousals in more temperate conditions. 相似文献

Fire is considered an important factor in influencing the physiognomy, dynamics and composition of Neotropical savannas. Species of diverse physiognomies exhibit different responses to fire, such as population persistence and seed mortality, according to the fire frequency to which they are submitted. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of heat shocks on seed germination of Anadenanthera macrocarpa (Benth.) Brenan, Dalbergia miscolobium Benth., Aristolochia galeata Mart. & Zucc., Kielmeyera coriacea (Spreng.) Mart. and Guazuma ulmifolia Lam., which are native species of the Brazilian savanna. The temperatures and exposure times to which the seeds were submitted were established according to data obtained in the field during a prescribed fire: 60 °C (10, 20 and 40 min), 80 °C (5, 10 and 20 min) and 100 °C (2, 5 and 10 min). Untreated seeds were used as controls. Seeds of A. galeata and K. coriacea showed high tolerance to most heat treatments, and seeds of A. macrocarpa showed a significant reduction in germination percentage after treatments of 80 °C and 100 °C. Treatments of 100 °C for 10 min reduced germination percentage for all species except G. ulmifolia, which has dormant seeds. For this species, germination was accelerated by heat treatments. The high temperatures applied did not interfere with the time to 50% germination (T50) of the tolerant seeds. Seeds of the savanna species K. coriacea and A. galeata were more tolerant to heat shocks than seeds of the forest species A. macrocarpa. Guazuma ulmifolia, the forest species with seeds that germinate after heat shock, also occurs in savanna physiognomies. Overall, the high temperatures applied did not affect the germination rate of the tolerant seeds. 相似文献

Selected biodegradable municipal solid waste fractions were subjected to fifteen different pre-hydrolysis treatments to obtain
the highest glucose yield for bio-ethanol production. Pre-hydrolysis treatments consisted of dilute acid (H2SO4, HNO3 or HCl, 1 and 4%, 180 min, 60°C), steam treatment (121 and 134°C, 15 min), microwave treatment (700 W, 2 min) or a combination
of two of them. Enzymatic hydrolysis was carried out with Trichoderma reesei and Trichoderma viride (10 and 60 FPU g−1 substrate). Glucose yields were compared using a factorial experimental design. The highest glucose yield (72.80%) was obtained
with a pre-hydrolysis treatment consisting of H2SO4 at 1% concentration, followed by steam treatment at 121°C, and enzymatic hydrolysis with Trichoderma viride at 60 FPU g−1 substrate. The contribution of enzyme loading and acid concentration was significantly higher (49.39 and 47.70%, respectively),
than the contribution of temperature during steam treatment (0.13%) to the glucose yield. 相似文献

Xylitol was produced by selected species of the yeast Candida after growth on a medium containing a hydrolysate of the North American perennial prairie grass big bluestem. The grass was
hydrolysed by a combination of dilute acid and enzymatic treatments. After growth on the medium for 120 h at 30 °C, Candida tropicalis ATCC 750 produced a 1.4-fold higher level of xylitol than did C. tropicalis ATCC 20215 while biomass production by C. tropicalis ATCC 750 was 1.7-fold higher than Candida guilliermondii ATCC 20216. The xylitol yields observed for C. tropicalis ATCC 750, Candida mogii ATCC 18364 and C. guilliermondii ATCC 20216 were at least 1.4-fold higher than the yield observed for C. tropicalis ATCC 20215 after growth for 120 h at 30 °C. 相似文献

Abstract. A southern ridge sandhill site in central Florida, USA, was burned in 1989, 1991, and 1995 after 63 years of fire‐suppression to simulate a pre‐settlement fire regime. Fire changed species abundance and vegetation structure but caused only minimal changes in species turnover and diversity. There was a general trend for an increase in the cover of herbs following fire but this was a statistically significant effect for only one species, Liatris tenuifolia var. tenuifolia. Aristida beyrichiana increased, litter cover and litter depth were significantly reduced, and ground lichens were eliminated in response to burning. Scrub oaks and palmettos in the ground cover and small shrub layers (height ≤ 1 m) either increased or did not respond to burning, reflecting strong post‐fire resprouting. Diversity in the ground cover and small shrub layers were not affected by fire. Scrub oaks and palmettos in the large shrub and overstorey layers (height > 1 m) were reduced in density, basal area, and longest canopy measurements in response to fire. Species diversity also decreased within these layers following fire. Some Pinus elliottii var. densa survived fire, but their density was reduced. All Pinus clausa were eliminated by fire. Periodic burning can suppress the dominance of shrubs (Quercus spp.) while increasing the cover of grasses and herbs in southern ridge sandhill vegetation. 相似文献

Questions: What are the short-term effects of restoration treatments, including fire and/or partial cutting with dead wood creation, on seedling density and distribution among microsites, and do they differ between upland and paludified biotopes? Location: Mature managed Picea abies-dominated stands in southern Finland. Methods: The restoration treatments consisted of four levels of cutting, with and without fire: uncut, low-CWD (partial cutting leaving 50 m3 ha−1 of standing retention trees and 5 m3 ha−1 of down retention trees, DRT), intermediate-CWD (as previous but with 30 m3 ha−1 of DRT), and high-CWD (as previous but with 60 m3 ha−1 of DRT). Results: The cutting treatment alone did not affect seedling density. Fire had an immediate effect, both by itself in upland biotopes (decreasing effect on P. abies density) and in combination with cutting in paludified biotopes (increasing effect on Betula spp. density). The density of other deciduous species (Sorbus aucuparia, Populus tremula, and Salix spp.) was not affected. Before treatments, seedlings grew predominantly on level ground and mounds. After treatments, more Betula, but fewer P. abies and other deciduous species, grew on these microsites. More Betula and other deciduous species grew next to CWD and under a fallen crown; more P. abies grew under a fallen crown in unburned stands. Conclusion: The post-treatment tree seedling density and distribution among microsites can be affected by restoration treatments. However, knowledge of local site characteristics and their interaction with different restoration treatments is needed to achieve the goals set for restoration at the stand and landscape levels. 相似文献

Flood tolerance and the distribution of Iva frutescens across New England salt marshes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Summary Tidal flooding is widely believed to be an important determinant of marsh plant distributions but has rarely been tested in the field. In New England the marsh elder Iva frutescens often dominates the terrestrial border of salt marshes and we examined its flood tolerance and distribution patterns. Marsh elders only occur at elevations where their roots are not subject to prolonged water table flooding. Consequently they are found on the terrestrial border of marshes and at lower elevations associated with drainage ditches and locally elevated surfaces. Marsh elders transplanted to elevations lower than they normally occur died within a year with or without neighbors and greenhouse tests revealed that I. frutescens is much less tolerant of flooded soil conditions than plants found at lower marsh elevations. We also manipulated the water table level of field plots and found that increasing or decreasing water table drainage led to enhanced and diminished I. frutescens performance, respectively. Our results demonstrate the importance of water table dynamics in generating spatial patterns in marsh plant communities and provide further evidence that supports the hypothesis that the seaward distributional limits of marsh plant populations are generally dictated by physical processes. 相似文献

According to the amino acid sequence, a codon-optimized xylanase gene (xynA1) from Thermomyces lanuginosus DSM 5826 was synthesized to construct the expression vector pHsh-xynA1. After optimization of the mRNA secondary structure in the translational initiation region of pHsh-xynA1, free energy of the 70 nt was changed from −6.56 to −4.96 cal/mol, and the spacing between AUG and the Shine-Dalgarno sequence
was decreased from 15 to 8 nt. The expression level was increased from 1.3 to 13% of total cell protein. A maximum xylanase
activity of 47.1 U/mL was obtained from cellular extract. The recombinant enzyme was purified 21.5-fold from the cellular
extract of Escherichia coli by heat treatment, DEAE-Sepharose FF column and t-Butyl-HIC column. The optimal temperature and pH were 65 °C and pH 6.0,
respectively. The purified enzyme was stable for 30 min over the pH range of 5.0–8.0 at 60 °C, and had a half-life of 3 h
at 65 °C. 相似文献

The marcoalga Ulva pertusa was cultured under (20 ± 2)°C, (20 ± 4)°C, (20 ± 6)°C, (20 ± 8)°C and (20 ± 10)°C circadian rhythms of fluctuating temperature
conditions, and constant temperature of 20°C was used as the control. The growth rate of macroalga at (20 ± 2)°C, (20 ± 4)°C
and (20 ± 6)°C were significantly higher than that at constant temperature of 20°C, while growth rate at (20 ± 8)°C and (20
± 10)°C were significantly lower than that at constant temperature of 20°C. The growth rate of macroalga was a quadratic function
of the thermal amplitude. Such a growth model can be described by G = β
0 + β
1(TA) + β
2(TA)2, where G represents the relative growth rate, TA is thermal amplitude in degree Celsius, β
0 is the intercept on the G axis, and β
1 and β
2 are the regression coefficients. The optimal thermal amplitude for the growth of thallus at mean temperature of 20°C was
estimated to be ± 3.69°C. Analysis of biochemical composition at the final stages of thaulls growth revealed that diel fluctuating
temperature caused various influences (P < 0.05). The content of chlorophyll, protein and total solute carbohydrate at (20 ± 2)°C and (20 ± 4)°C were slightly higher
than those at constant temperature of 20°C, however no statistically significant differences were found among them (P > 0.05). While osmolytes (total solute carbohydrate and free proline) at (20 ± 10)°C were significantly higher than that at
20°C (P < 0.05). Therefore, more chlorophyll and carbohydrate production might account for the enhancement in the growth of macroalga
at the diel fluctuating temperatures in the present study.

Notonecta unifasciata Guerin eggs maintained at different stages of embryonic development in water at variable temperatures (2.2–25.6 °C) and for
periods of 4–12 weeks revealed maximum viability (>80 %) at the highest temperature. However, optimum nondevelopmental viability
was at 14.4 °C with eight-day-old embryos (>35 %). Short term (4 weeks) storage at 14.4 °C significantly increased egg viability.
Survival was poor (<20 %) at the 2 lowest temperatures. Eggs held at 14.4 °C for 12 weeks and sustainingca. 50 % mortality, may be a practical procedure for biological control.

In a two-phase operation, E. coli containing λSNNU1 (Q
−
S
−) in the chromosome is typically cultured at 33°C and cloned gene expression is induced by elevating the temperature. At least
40°C is necessary for complete induction of cloned gene expression; however, temperatures above 40°C have been shown to inhibit
cloned gene expression. This suggests that a three-phase operation, which has an induction phase between the growth and production
phases, may result in higher gene expression. In this study, optimal temperature management strategies were investigated for
the three-phase operation of cloned gene expression in thermally inducible E. coli/bacteriophage systems. The optimal temperature for the induction phase was determined to be 40°C. When the temperature of
the production stage was 33°C, the optimal time period for the induction phase at 40°C was determined to be 60 min. In contrast,
when the temperature of the production phase was 37°C, the optimal period for the induction phase at 40°C was 20∼30 min. When
the three-phase temperature and temporal profile were set at a growth phase of 33°C, an induction phase at 40°C for 30 min,
and a production phase at 37°C, the highest level of cloned gene expression was achieved. 相似文献
