Factors affecting iron plaque on the roots ofPhragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steudel

Phragmites australis (the common reed) was collected at six sites in southern Québec and Ontario, Canada, in order to study the accumulation of iron plaque on the roots. The deposition of iron oxides on roots ofP. australis did not correlate directly with soil measurements; however, the amounts of iron-bound-to-carbonates fraction of the soil/sediment, responsible for the iron plaque accumulation, correlated with the % of water, % of organic matter, % of clay and pH of the substrate. Plants located very near flowing water accumulated more iron plaque on the roots than plants in other habitats through the summer; it is hypothesized that carbonates associated with iron come from the flowing water. In wetlands or sites near flowing water, most root iron was found on the surface, as iron plaque, while there was more iron inside the root in dry environments. Radial oxygen loss from the roots is probably the most important source of oxygen for the oxidation of iron.     

林窗尺度对侧柏人工林土壤微生物生物量碳氮的短期影响

为了明晰林窗尺度对侧柏人工林土壤微生物生物量碳氮的短期影响,以徐州市50年生侧柏人工林为研究对象,探讨了开设林窗2a后3种林窗尺度(半径分别为4m,S林窗;8m,M林窗;12m,L林窗)和位置(林窗内、林缘和林窗外部)对土壤微生物生物量碳氮(MBC,Microbial Biomass Carbon;MBN,Microbial Biomass Nitrogen)的影响。结果表明:(1)与对照样地相比,L林窗显著提高了春季(207.1mg/kg)和夏季(169.5mg/kg)林窗外部的土壤MBN含量;M林窗显著提高了春季林窗内部(2959.3mg/kg)和林缘(3008.8mg/kg)位置土壤MBC含量和林缘位置(207.7mg/kg)土壤MBN含量,且显著提高了夏季林窗内部(144.4mg/kg)土壤MBN含量;S林窗显著降低了春季林窗外部和林缘位置土壤MBC(分别为2159.2mg/kg和1955.1mg/kg)和MBN(分别为153.1mg/kg和131.3mg/kg)含量。(2)土壤MBC含量与土壤全碳和土壤可溶性有机碳(DOC)含量呈极显著(P0.01)正相关,与土壤温度呈极显著负相关(在3—27℃之间);土壤MBN含量与土壤含水量和DOC含量呈极显著正相关,与土壤全碳呈显著正相关;土壤MBC和MBN含量与凋落物量没有显著相关关系。本研究中,相对于S和L林窗,M林窗对土壤微生物生物量的提高作用较为明显,可促进侧柏人工林土壤碳氮循环过程,在徐州侧柏人工林中开设M林窗有利于提高土壤肥力和林木生长。     

Monitoring therapeutical intervention with ezetimibe using targeted near-infrared fluorescence imaging in experimental atherosclerosis

Ezetimibe (EZE), an inhibitor of cholesterol absorption, reduces atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-deficient (apoE(-/-)) mice. The matrix protein ED-B fibronectin (ED-B) is upregulated in atherosclerotic lesions. Using a novel conjugate for near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging targeting ED-B, we studied the effect of EZE on plaque lesion formation in apoE(-/-) mice. ApoE(-/-) mice received EZE (5 mug/kg/d) or chow up to the age of 4, 6, and 8 months. NIRF imaging of aortic lesions was performed 24 hours after intravenous application ex vivo and in vivo. Plaque lesion formation was analyzed by histology and immunohistochemistry. Aortic lesion formation detected by Sudan staining and NIRF imaging was significantly reduced at 6 and 8 months (p < .001). Plaque areas determined by NIRF imaging significantly correlated with Sudan staining (p < .001). EZE treatment resulted in a significant reduction in plaque macrophage and ED-B immunoreactivity (both p < .05) in brachiocephalic lesions. There was a significant reduction in plaque size in brachiocephalic arteries in 8-month-old mice treated with EZE compared with mice during short-term treatment (p < .05), indicating EZE plaque regression. Targeted NIRF imaging showed a correlation to histologic lesion extension during therapeutical intervention in experimental atherosclerosis.     

Effects of red clover (Trifolium pratense) green manure and compost soil amendments on wild mustard (Brassica kaber) growth and incidence of disease

Using a soil bioassay technique, seedling growth and incidence of disease of wild mustard (Brassica kaber) and sweet corn (Zea mays) were assessed in soil from field plots that received either of two treatments: incorporated red clover (Trifolium pratense) residue plus application of compost (`amended soil'), or application of ammonium nitrate fertilizer (`unamended soil'). Soils were analyzed for percent moisture, dissolved organic carbon, conductivity, phenolics, and nutrient content. A trend toward greater incidence of Pythium spp. infection of wild mustard seedlings grown in amended soil was observed during the first 40 days after incorporation (DAI) of red clover and compost, with significant differences ( = 0.05) at two out of four sampling dates in 1997, and four out of four sampling dates in 1998. Incidence of Pythium infection was 10–70% greater in the amended soil treatment during that period. Asymptomatic wild mustard seedlings grown in amended soil were also on average 2.5 cm shorter ( = 0.05) at 5 DAI than those grown in unamended soil in one year out of two. Concentration of phenolic compounds in soil solution was weakly correlated with decreased shoot and root growth (r = 0.50, 0.28, respectively) and increased incidence of disease (r = 0.48) in wild mustard seedlings in one year out of two. Dissolved organic carbon concentration was weakly correlated with increased disease in wild mustard seedlings in both years (r = 0.51, 0.33, respectively). Growth of corn seedlings did not differ between the two soil treatments, suggesting that red clover green manure and compost may selectively reduce density and competitive ability of wild mustard in the field. Bioassay results corresponded well with emergence and shoot weight results from a related field study, indicating that this technique may be useful for screening potential soil treatments prior to field studies.     

Alginate films for delivery of root-knot nematode inoculum and evaluation of microbial interactions

A method was developed for utilizing alginate films to deliver inoculum into soil and evaluate microbial antagonistic activity against nematode eggs. Eggs of Meloidogyne incognita were harvested from galled tomato roots (Lycopersicon esculentum), surface disinfested, suspended in 2% (w/v) aqueous sodium alginate, and applied to 2.5 × 5.0 cm polyvinyl chloride coated fiberglass screens (1.5 mm² mesh size) at a uniform thickness of 0.5 mm. The alginate solution was gelled by dipping in 0.25 M CaCl₂. Films containing eggs were observed in vitro and egg development was evaluated. The number of immature eggs and eggs with first stage juveniles declined linearly over time while the number of empty eggs shells, and hatched juveniles increased over time, indicating that the alginate gel did not inhibit development and motility of M. incognita juveniles. In a greenhouse experiment using cucumber (Cucumis sativus) the number of galls g^-1 root was correlated with the number of eggs in alginate films placed in each pot at planting. Films containing M. incognita eggs were buried in field soil containing organic amendments, incubated, removed from soil, rinsed with water, and observed. The number of immature eggs in grids from soil amended with chitin or flax seed meal were lower than in untreated soil; percent parasitized eggs was also greater in films from amended soil than from untreated soil.     

Response of Stylosanthes guianensis to endomycorrhizal fungi inoculation as affected by lime and phosphorus applications

The effect of 3 different species of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on the growth of Stylosanthes guianensis (Aubl.) Sw. cultivated in a sterilized acid and dystrophic soil (Quartzipsament), with 4 levels of lime (0; 0.27; 0.63 and 1.10 meq Ca²⁺/100 g air-dried soil, as Ca(OH)₂) and 2 P levels (0 and 20 mg P/kg soil, as KH₂PO₄) was evaluated under greenhouse conditions. Plants were harvested 40, 60, and 80 days after planting. Stylosanthes guianensis was highly mycotrophic, especially in soil without P fertilization. Mycotrophism was highest in plants inoculated with Acaulospora scrobiculata in soil receiving no P fertilizer and with 0.63 meq Ca²⁺/100 g air-dried soil. Shoot growth increment was as high as 5129% at the third harvest. Inoculation with Glomus macrocarpum presented intermediate results, whereas inoculation with Gigaspora margarita had no significant effect on plant growth. Root per cent colonization and shoot dry weight, as well as root percent colonization and shoot to root ratio were significantly correlated. The occurrence of S. guianensis in very acid and dystropic soils, containing toxic levels of Al³⁺, requires the association with VAM fungi for the plant tolerate such conditions.     

科尔沁沙地樟子松人工林土壤真菌共现网络及其与土壤因子的关系

为揭示科尔沁沙地樟子松(Pinus sylvestris var.mongolica)人工林土壤真菌间相互作用,以不同林龄(中龄、近熟和成熟)、不同土层(0—10和10—20 cm)樟子松人工林土壤为研究对象,以未造林地为对照样地,采用分子生态网络分析法,基于随机矩阵理比较分析樟子松人工林土壤真菌网络特征及其影响因素。研究结果表明：(1)中龄林到近熟林阶段,科尔沁沙地樟子松人工林土壤真菌网络平均连通度增大,平均路径长减小,网络愈加复杂,而近熟林到成熟林阶段则相反,网络愈加简单;不同土层间,10—20 cm土层土壤真菌平均路径长度小于0—10 cm土层,平均连通度和聚类系数大于0—10 cm土层,10—20 cm较0—10 cm土壤真菌间相互联系更为密切;与樟子松人工林相比,未造林地土壤真菌网络中的平均连通度略低于近熟林,平均路径长低于樟子松人工林,未造林地土壤真菌群落更不稳定。(2)中龄、近熟和成熟樟子松人工林土壤真菌关键菌种分别为Guehomyces sp.、Oidiodendron sp.和Pseudeurotium sp.,未造林地关键菌种为Alphamyces sp.。在0—1...

Soil fumigation and phosphorus supply affect the formation of Pisolithus-Eucalyptus urophylla ectomycorrhizas in two acid Philippine soils

To examine the effects of microbial populations and external phosphorus supply of two Philippine soils on mycorrhizal formation, Eucalyptus urophylla seedlings were inoculated with two Pisolithus isolates and grown in fumigated, reinfested and unfumigated soil fertilized with four rates of phosphorus. The Pisolithus isolates used were collected from under eucalypts in Australia and in the Philippines. Soils were infertile acid silty loams collected from field sites in Pangasinan, Luzon and Surigao, Mindanao.Significant interaction was observed between inoculation, soil fumigation and phosphorus supply on mycorrhizal formation by the Australian isolate in Surigao soil but not in Pangasinan soil. Soil fumigation enhanced mycorrhizal formation by the Australian isolate but did not affect root colonization by the Philippine isolate. Root colonization by the Australian isolate was highest in the reinfested soil while for the Philippine isolate it was highest in the unfumigated soil. The Australian isolate was more effective than the Philippine isolate in promoting growth and P uptake of E. urophylla seedlings in both soils. Total dry weight and P uptake of E. urophylla seedlings inoculated with the Australian isolate were maximum in fumigated and in the reinfested Pangasinan and Surigao soils supplied with 8 mg P kg^-1 soil. In the unfumigated soil, growth of seedlings inoculated with the Australian isolate was significantly reduced. Seedlings inoculated with the Philippine isolate had the largest dry weights and P contents in unfumigated Pangasinan and Surigao soils supplied with 8 mg P kg^-1 soil.These results indicate that the performance of the Australian Pisolithus isolate was markedly affected by biological factors in unfumigated soil. Thus, its potential use in the Philippines needs to be thoroughly tested in a variety of unfumigated soils before its widespread use in any inoculation programme.     

祁连山排露沟流域青海云杉天然更新与土壤水热的关系

青海云杉是祁连山区森林生态系统的建群种,其天然更新对维持祁连山森林生态系统功能具有重要意义。以祁连山排露沟流域青海云杉林天然更新为研究对象,于2021年6-9月测定海拔2700-3300m的0-40cm土层土壤温度和水分数据,并于7月中旬对样地天然更新进行每木检尺,将天然更新划分为幼苗(第一龄级)阶段和幼树(第二龄级)阶段,通过方差分析探究不同海拔更新苗胸径、株高的差异,再进一步建立回归模型拟合更新苗胸径、株高与各层土壤水热的关系,探讨更新苗胸径、株高对土壤水热的响应。结果表明:(1)更新苗胸径、株高随海拔升高而降低,海拔2700m幼苗胸径与3300m幼苗胸径存在显著性差异(P<0.05),海拔2700m、2800m幼苗、幼树株高与3300m幼苗、幼树株高存在显著性差异(P<0.05),幼树胸径在各海拔均不存在显著性差异,表明更新苗胸径对海拔的敏感性要低于更新苗株高。(2)更新苗胸径、株高与土壤温度呈正相关,与土壤水分呈负相关,幼苗胸径与20cm土壤温度和土壤水分的相关系数最大,幼树胸径与40cm土壤温度和土壤水分相关系数最大,幼树株高与40cm土壤温度及20cm土壤水分相关系数最大。(3)回归模型显示幼苗胸径和株高对土壤水热的利用模式相同,而幼树胸径和株高对土壤水热的利用模式存在差异。(4)青海云杉天然更新随着龄级的增加,影响生长的主要因素由土壤温度逐渐变为土壤水分,更新苗胸径对土壤水热的响应也随着龄级的增加在逐渐减弱。     

Fluid-structure interaction models based on patient-specific IVUS at baseline and follow-up for prediction of coronary plaque progression by morphological and biomechanical factors: A preliminary study

Plaque morphology and biomechanics are believed to be closely associated with plaque progression. In this paper, we test the hypothesis that integrating morphological and biomechanical risk factors would result in better predictive power for plaque progression prediction. A sample size of 374 intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) slices was obtained from 9 patients with IVUS follow-up data. 3D fluid-structure interaction models were constructed to obtain both structural stress/strain and fluid biomechanical conditions. Data for eight morphological and biomechanical risk factors were extracted for each slice. Plaque area increase (PAI) and wall thickness increase (WTI) were chosen as two measures for plaque progression. Progression measure and risk factors were fed to generalized linear mixed models and linear mixed-effect models to perform prediction and correlation analysis, respectively. All combinations of eight risk factors were exhausted to identify the optimal predictor(s) with highest prediction accuracy defined as sum of sensitivity and specificity. When using a single risk factor, plaque wall stress (PWS) at baseline was the best predictor for plaque progression (PAI and WTI). The optimal predictor among all possible combinations for PAI was PWS + PWSn + Lipid percent + Min cap thickness + Plaque Area (PA) + Plaque Burden (PB) (prediction accuracy = 1.5928) while Wall Thickness (WT) + Plaque Wall Strain (PWSn) + Plaque Area (PA) was the best for WTI (1.2589). This indicated that PAI was a more predictable measure than WTI. The combination including both morphological and biomechanical parameters had improved prediction accuracy, compared to predictions using only morphological features.

两种代表性蚯蚓对设施菜地土壤微生物群落结构及理化性质的影响

不同生态型蚯蚓的取食偏好和生境有所差异,因此蚯蚓的生态型差异可能关乎其对土壤性质的不同影响;有关不同生态型蚯蚓对土壤性质尤其是微生物学性质影响的研究有助于了解蚯蚓生态功能的作用机制。在野外调控试验的第4年采集土壤,研究了牛粪混施和表施处理下内层种威廉腔环蚓(Metaphire guillelmi)和表层种赤子爱胜蚓(Eisenia foetida)对设施菜地土壤微生物群落结构和主要理化性质的影响。结果表明,土壤微生物群落结构同时受到蚯蚓种类和牛粪施用方式的影响。牛粪表施时,两种蚯蚓均显著降低了菌根真菌、真菌生物量和原生动物生物量(P0.05);牛粪混施时,不同蚯蚓的影响有所差异,威廉腔环蚓明显增加了菌根真菌、真菌生物量和放线菌生物量,而赤子爱胜蚓的作用不明显。此外,两种蚯蚓均提高了土壤孔隙度、团聚体稳定性和土壤p H、矿质氮以及微生物生物量碳氮水平,但提高幅度取决于蚯蚓种类和牛粪施用方式。冗余分析表明蚯蚓影响下土壤微生物群落结构的变化与团聚体稳定性、p H、速效磷、矿质氮呈正相关,而与土壤容重呈负相关。     

Remediation of AMD Contaminated Soil by Two Types of Reeds

Acid mine drainage (AMD) adversely impacts many regions in the world. The interactions among citric acid (CA), rhizosphere bacteria and metal uptake in different types of Phragmites australis cultured in spiked AMD contaminated soil were investigated. Compared with non-contaminated reeds cultured under the same conditions, wild reeds harvested from a contaminated site accumulated more metals into tissues. Rhizosphere iron oxidizing bacteria (Fe(II)OB) enhanced the development of Fe plaque but had no significant impact on the formation of Mn and Al plaque on the root surface of either reeds. Plaque may restrain the accumulation of Fe and Mn into tissues of reeds. CA inhibited the growth of Fe(II)OB, reduced the formation of metal plaque and significantly elevated metal accumulations into both underground and aboveground biomass of reeds. The concentrations of Fe, Al and Mn were higher in belowground organs than aboveground tissues. The roots contained 0.28 ± 0.01 mg/g Mn, 3.09 ± 0.51 mg/g Al, 94.47 ± 5.75 mg/g Fe, while the stems accumulated 0.19 ± 0.01 mg/g Mn, 1.34 ± 0.02 mg/g Al, 10.32 ± 0.60 mg/g Fe in wild reeds cultured in soil added with 33,616 ppm CA. Further field investigations may be required to study the effect of CA to enhance phytoremediation of metals from real AMD contaminated sites.     

古尔班通古特沙漠梭梭冠下裸斑形成土壤学机制

古尔班通古特沙漠梭梭与齿肋赤藓共生区域中,梭梭冠下常形成藓类结皮裸露斑块。为研究梭梭冠下裸斑形成机理,以裸斑内土壤、裸斑外藓类结皮土壤、背景裸地土壤以及背景藓类结皮土壤为研究对象,测定四类土壤营养物质含量和理化因子,并测定土壤代谢组以及分析其之间差异。结果表明,裸斑内土壤养分及生态化学计量比与裸斑外藓类结皮和背景藓类结皮土壤并无显著性差异,土壤养分及生态化学计量并非造成梭梭冠下藓类裸斑的原因。裸斑内土壤Na⁺、K⁺、Mg²⁺、SO^2-₄、CO^2-₃、HCO^-₃含量显著高于裸斑外土壤、背景裸地土壤和背景结皮土壤,总盐含量最高为1.705 g/kg。这个含量不足以对齿肋赤藓正常生长造成影响,因此裸斑内土壤中较高的离子浓度也并非藓类裸斑产生的原因。土壤代谢组结果显示不同土壤代谢物具有极显著差异,油酰胺等酰胺类化合物相对丰度最高,占总代谢物的72.68%,且在裸斑内土壤中相对丰度显著高于裸斑藓类结皮土壤、裸地土壤和背景结皮土壤,因此推测裸斑内土壤中油酰胺等酰胺类化合物可能是抑制齿肋赤藓生长的主要原因,是造成古尔班通古特沙漠梭梭冠下藓类裸斑产生的主要土壤学机制。     

武夷山自然保护区不同海拔甜槠天然林土壤有机碳变化特征及影响因素

为揭示中亚热带常绿阔叶林建群种--甜槠天然林不同海拔土壤有机碳含量垂直分布差异及影响机制,以武夷山自然保护区甜槠天然林单一植被类型为研究对象,在其集中分布的5个海拔梯度（540、700、850、1022、1200 m）范围内设置固定样地,测定每个海拔梯度不同深度土层土壤因子（土壤全氮、全磷、土壤pH值、容重、土壤有机质、粉粒、砂粒、粘粒）、气候因子（土壤温度）、植被因子（细根生物量）及土壤有机碳含量等指标,分析了土壤有机碳沿海拔及垂直土层分布特征,并在主成分分析基础上构建了基于主控因子的线性回归模型。结果表明：（1）同一海拔高度,土壤有机碳含量在土壤垂直剖面分布具有明显的"表聚性"现象;同一土层深度,随着海拔升高,土壤有机碳含量逐渐增加,但增幅随土层深度增加而减小,高海拔地区有助于土壤有机碳的固存;（2）不同土层土壤有机碳含量与海拔、土壤全氮、土壤含水量、土壤粉粒呈极显著正相关（P<0.01）,与土壤温度、土壤容重、土壤粘粒、砂粒呈极显著负相关（P<0.01）;土壤细根生物量、土壤有机质与土壤有机碳含量在土壤表层（0-10、10-20 cm）呈极显著（P<0.01）或显著正相关（P<0.05）;土壤pH值、土壤砂粒与土壤有机碳含量在20-30 cm土层呈显著负相关（P<0.05）,但与其他土层关系不显著（P>0.05）;海拔因素是影响土壤有机碳含量分布的主要因素,其次为土壤因素,植被因素主要影响土壤表层有机碳含量分布。（3）海拔因素能通过影响与土壤有机碳形成和转化的因子及改变土壤有机碳的累积和分解速率,对土壤有机碳的分布产生影响。（4）多元线性回归模型拟合R²高于一元线性回归模型拟合R²,能解释土壤有机碳含量变异的82.1%-98.1%。由此可见,不同环境因子组合可以更好的解释不同土层土壤有机碳含量随海拔梯度的变异。     

敦煌阳关湿地芦苇叶性状对土壤水分的响应

为了了解干旱区湿地不同水分梯度下芦苇叶性状的构建模式及对不同水分环境的适应策略差异性,以敦煌阳关渥洼池湿地植物芦苇(Phragmites australis)为研究对象,分析不同水分梯度下芦苇叶性状对土壤水分的响应。结果表明:(1)低水分梯度下的叶厚度(LT)和叶片磷含量(LPC)显著高于中、高水分梯度(P0.05),高水分梯度下的叶碳含量(LCC)也显著高于中、低水分梯度(P0.05)。(2)芦苇叶性状之间的关系也因水分的变化而有所不同。就整体而言,叶片碳含量与叶干物质含量(LDMC)极显著正相关(P0.01);叶厚度与叶片磷含量极显著正相关(P0.01),比叶面积(SLA)与叶氮含量(LNC)极显著正相关(P0.01)、与叶碳氮比(C/N)极显著负相关(P0.01)。(3)在水分作为限制因素的条件下,叶片碳含量与比叶面积对水分的响应最为突出。土壤含水量与叶厚度、叶碳含量和叶片磷含量均显著负相关(P0.05)。芦苇在低水分环境下采取高收入低投入的积极型生存策略,高水分下则采取低获取高消耗的保守型生存策略,说明了芦苇在适应异质生境的自我调节机制。

胀果甘草(Glycyrrhiza inflata)主要分布于新疆、甘肃的荒漠区,是耐盐性最强的药用甘草,在改良盐碱地土壤中发挥着重要作用,其原生境土壤微生物群落结构特征是揭示种群分布影响因素及盐碱地修复机制的重要依据。从胀果甘草5个主产区采集原生境土壤,测定土壤理化指标,并采用高通量测序技术,结合Spearman、dbRDA等方法开展微生物群落组成及多样性特征研究,揭示不同分布区的优势微生物群落特征和影响因子。结果表明：真菌群落中曲霉属(Aspergillus)、地丝霉属(Geomyces)、镰刀菌属(Fusarium)和细菌群落中的寡养单胞菌属(Stenotrophomonas)、Marinimicrobium、Idiomarina是野生胀果甘草原生境土壤中的优势微生物类群。不同分布区的土壤真菌多样性和丰富度具有显著差异,但土壤细菌多样性和丰富度差异不显著;部分分布区土壤中的真菌和细菌种类差异较大。土壤理化因子中,土壤含水量和总含盐量对真菌和细菌的群落分布、丰富度有显著影响。原生境含水量与曲霉属(Aspergillus)、镰刀菌属(Fusarium)、链格孢属(Alternaria)...     

影响不同林型天然红松混交林林隙更新的土壤特征因子

采用野外调查、样品采集和统计分析等相结合的方法,对小兴安岭天然红松混交林3种不同林型(椴树红松混交林(TP)、枫桦红松混交林(BP)、云冷杉红松混交林(PAP))的林隙及其邻近郁闭林分的土壤特征因子和树木更新的相关性进行了研究,旨在阐明林隙土壤特征因子对树木更新的影响,从而为小兴安岭天然红松混交林植被更新、退化生态系统的恢复和可持续经营提供基础数据和实践参考。结果表明:郁闭林分土壤有机质、全氮质量分数显著高于3种不同林型的林隙。有效磷和速效钾含量在BP内与其他林型之间差异显著。3种林型林隙内p H值均略高于其郁闭林分,但与其差异均不显著。3种林型林隙内更新总密度、幼树更新密度与郁闭林分差异显著(P0.05),PAP林隙中更新总密度和幼树更新密度最高。BP林隙面积与更新密度相关不显著,乔木幼苗、幼树更新密度与有机质(r=-0.400,r=-0.475)、全氮均呈显著负相关(r=-0.519,r=-0.603)。TP林隙内全氮与乔木幼苗更新密度呈正相关(r=0.092),而与乔木幼树更新密度呈显著负相关(r=-0.585)。PAP林隙内全氮与乔木幼苗、幼树更新密度均呈负相关。郁闭林分幼苗更新密度分别与有机质、全氮、速效钾、p H值、脲酶和蛋白酶呈负相关。主成分分析表明,全氮是影响林隙和郁闭林分树木更新的关键因素。
