干旱胁迫对科尔沁沙地榆树幼苗C、N、P化学计量特征的影响

设置适宜水分、轻度、中度和重度干旱胁迫处理(即80%、65%、50%和35%田间持水量),研究干旱胁迫对榆树幼苗不同器官C、N、P化学计量的影响.结果表明:与适宜水分处理相比,干旱胁迫导致C含量在叶、茎、粗根和细根中增加,N含量在叶、茎和粗根中增加,P含量在叶、茎和粗根中下降,在细根中增加,C:N在叶和茎中下降,C:P及N:P在叶、茎和粗根中增加,在细根中下降.各器官间C含量呈显著正相关,而各器官间N与P相关性均不显著.土壤含水量与各器官C含量,叶N含量,细根P含量及C:N,叶、茎和粗根C:P及N:P呈显著负相关,而与细根N含量,叶、茎和粗根P含量,细根C:P及N:P呈显著正相关.因此,干旱胁迫影响榆树幼苗对N、P的吸收及向上运输,幼苗生长主要受N限制;随着干旱胁迫的加剧,叶、茎和粗根生长受P限制作用增强.     

干旱胁迫下接种丛枝菌根真菌对七子花非结构性碳水化合物积累及C、N、P化学计量特征的影响

以濒危植物七子花二年生幼苗为研究材料,采用盆栽试验方法,研究干旱胁迫和接种丛枝菌根真菌(AMF)处理对幼苗不同器官C、N、P化学计量关系和非结构性碳水化合物(NSC)含量的影响。试验共设计4个处理:对照(CK)、干旱胁迫(D)、接种AMF(AMF)、干旱胁迫和接种AMF(D+AMF)。结果表明: 在干旱胁迫下七子花根系AMF的侵染率显著下降,但接种AMF处理植株的株高、叶片数显著高于未接种处理。接种AMF显著提高了干旱胁迫下植株根、叶可溶性糖和NSC含量及茎、叶淀粉含量,且茎和叶可溶性糖与淀粉比显著下降。干旱胁迫导致植株C含量在根和叶中显著增加,P含量在茎中显著减少;与干旱胁迫相比,胁迫下接种AMF植株根、茎、叶P含量及叶C含量显著提高,而根C、N含量及茎C含量显著降低。胁迫下接种AMF植株根、茎C∶N、C∶P、N∶P和叶N∶P均显著低于单一胁迫处理。NSC与C∶N∶P计量比的相关性分析表明,根、叶P含量与可溶性糖和NSC含量呈显著正相关,茎P含量与淀粉和NSC含量呈显著正相关,各器官N∶P与NSC含量呈显著负相关。综上,干旱胁迫显著抑制了七子花幼苗的生长,接种AMF通过提高植株根和叶的可溶性糖含量、根的可溶性糖/淀粉,增加地上部分淀粉含量,促进P元素吸收和降低各器官N∶P来增强植株耐旱性,从而提高七子花幼苗在干旱环境中的存活率。     

Mycorrhizal inoculant alleviates salt stress in<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Sesbania aegyptiaca</Emphasis> and<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Sesbania grandiflora</Emphasis> under field conditions: evidence for reduced sodium and improved magnesium uptake

A field experiment was conducted to examine the effect of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus macrocarpum and salinity on growth of Sesbania aegyptiaca and S. grandiflora. In the salt-stressed soil, mycorrhizal root colonisation and sporulation was significantly higher in AM-inoculated than in uninoculated plants. Mycorrhizal seedlings had significantly higher root and shoot dry biomass production than non-mycorrhizal seedlings grown in saline soil. The content of chlorophyll was greater in the leaves of mycorrhiza-inoculated as compared to uninoculated seedlings. The number of nodules was significantly higher in mycorrhizal than non-mycorrhizal plants. Mycorrhizal seedling tissue had significantly increased concentrations of P, N and Mg but lower Na concentration than non-mycorrhizal seedlings. Under salinity stress conditions both Sesbania sp. showed a high degree of dependence on mycorrhizae, increasing with the age of the plants. The reduction in Na uptake together with a concomitant increase in P, N and Mg absorption and high chlorophyll content in mycorrhizal plants may be important salt-alleviating mechanisms for plants growing in saline soil.     

亚适温条件下缺铁和硝酸盐胁迫对番茄幼苗生长及铁吸收的影响

研究亚适温(昼/夜18 ℃/12 ℃)条件下缺铁和硝酸盐胁迫对番茄幼苗生长及铁吸收的影响.结果表明: 与适温对照相比,亚适温条件下番茄幼苗生长受到明显的抑制,株高、叶面积显著变小,干物质积累下降;亚适温下缺铁对番茄幼苗生长的影响比适温下缺铁的影响大.亚适温条件下,缺铁、硝酸盐胁迫及二者同时胁迫的番茄幼苗株高与无胁迫处理差异不显著,但幼苗叶面积明显变小,电解质渗漏率、根系活力和三价铁还原酶活性明显增加,叶绿素含量降低;根总长、根表面积、根体积及根尖数明显减小;幼苗根、茎、叶中铁含量明显降低.亚适温下硝酸盐胁迫以及缺铁与硝酸盐二者同时胁迫加重了番茄幼苗干物质积累的减少、电解质渗漏率的增加,以及减少了对铁离子的吸收.Fe²⁺对K⁺和Ca²⁺吸收具有拮抗作用,不同器官中的表现有所差异;降低营养液中的Fe²⁺浓度可使番茄幼苗的缺铁症状更加严重.     

氮磷添加对巨桉幼苗生物量分配和C:N:P化学计量特征的影响

巨桉(Eucalyptus grandis)是一种优良的速生用材树种, 了解氮(N)和磷(P)对巨桉生长、养分限制、化学计量特征的影响对于科学合理施肥具有重要意义。该实验以巨桉无性系组培苗为研究对象, 通过在酸性紫色土中设置不同施N或施P梯度, 研究巨桉幼苗各器官(根、茎、叶)生物量及碳(C)、N、P的分配和化学计量特征以及巨桉生长的养分限制状况。结果表明: 施N处理对巨桉根茎叶及总生物量的影响极显著, 增加了地上部分的生物量比例而显著降低了根系的生物量比例; 施P对巨桉幼苗总生物量影响不显著, 但显著提高了根的生物量分配比例, 对茎和叶的生物量分配没有显著影响。施N或施P显著改变了巨桉幼苗的N、P含量和化学计量比, 同时也显著影响了土壤与植物N:P的关系。施N可以促使酸性紫色土条件下巨桉对N的吸收而抑制对P的吸收, 施P则促进巨桉幼苗对P的吸收。施N对巨桉幼苗根茎叶的C、N、P分配特征有极显著影响, 而施P对巨桉幼苗根茎叶的C、N、P分配没有显著影响。施N极显著降低了巨桉幼苗N的利用率, 显著提高了P的利用率, 而施P处理极显著降低了巨桉幼苗P的利用率。从巨桉生物量沿施肥梯度和N:P的变化规律可以判断, 当叶片N:P < 15时, 巨桉的生长主要受到N的限制作用。施N可以显著地提高根茎叶的N:P比值, 缓解巨桉缺N的现象, 施P则进一步加剧了N元素的缺乏。     

镉胁迫对小报春幼苗生长及生理特性的影响

该研究采用盆栽控制试验,测定不同浓度(0、5、50、100、150、200 mg/kg)土壤Cd胁迫下小报春幼苗生长及生理生化指标,以探究小报春(Primula forbesii Franch.)对重金属镉(Cd)污染的抗性和敏感性,为新型香花地被植物应用于Cd污染土壤提供理论依据。结果表明:(1)低浓度(5 mg/kg)Cd胁迫能促进小报春株高和根长的伸长,高浓度(≥150 mg/kg)Cd胁迫下株高、根长和生物量明显降低。(2)随Cd胁迫浓度增加,小报春幼苗叶片光合作用、叶绿素含量、SOD和CAT活性先上升后下降,而其超氧阴离子产生速率、过氧化氢、丙二醛含量、叶相对电导率和POD活性持续升高。(3)在Cd胁迫条件下,小报春体内K、Zn含量降低,叶和根中Ca、Mg含量显著增加,体内Cd含量明显升高,且根系Cd含量远远高于叶和叶柄。研究发现,小报春幼苗对Cd胁迫具有一定的耐性,低浓度(5 mg/kg)Cd胁迫对小报春生长影响较小,但高浓度(≥150 mg/kg)Cd胁迫对小报春产生明显的毒害作用,影响其正常生长;小报春可能通过增强体内抗氧化酶系统活性、增加叶和根中Ca、Mg含量和根系截留镉来减轻镉胁迫的伤害,提高自身耐受镉胁迫能力。     

干旱区不同地理种群骆驼刺元素组成及表面结构特征的对比研究

碳(C)、氮(N)、磷(P)元素在植物各器官中的组成,及植物表面结构差异是其对外界环境适应性的重要表征。以干旱区3个地理种群骆驼刺(塔里木盆地策勒种群,吐鄯托盆地托克逊种群,准噶尔盆地阜康种群)为研究对象,通过对植株各器官C,N,P元素组成的测定及表面形貌观测,对其在不同环境中的适应特性进行了比较研究。结果表明:(1)同一种群的骆驼刺,C元素在各器官中的分配没有显著规律;N元素在叶片中含量最高,茎中最低;策勒种群和阜康种群的P含量,叶片中最高,茎与刺中差异不显著;但托克逊种群茎中P含量显著高于其他部位。(2)3个地理种群的骆驼刺叶中元素组成相比,策勒种群C,N含量均最高,托克逊种群C,N含量最低;3个种群叶片的P含量,C∶N,C∶P,N∶P值均没有显著差异。刺中元素含量相比,C含量没有显著差异;N含量阜康种群策勒种群托克逊种群。茎中元素含量相比,N含量差异不显著,但托克逊种群茎中P含量为其他两个种群的2倍,可能与托克逊土壤中高浓度的全N,速效N,速效P有关。(3)托克逊种群表皮极厚,蜡质非常致密,各器官气孔密度均高于其他两个种群;策勒种群比阜康种群叶表皮增厚,蜡质致密,但叶片气孔密度却减小;策勒种群和阜康种群茎与刺的气孔密度差异不显著。研究表明,策勒种群骆驼刺最适应当地环境条件:其叶片具有最高的C,N含量,且表面结构没有明显的干旱胁迫特征。托克逊种群表现出明显的干旱适应特征:其表皮增厚,蜡质致密,气孔密度增大,叶片C,N含量最低。虽然托克逊种群茎中P含量显著高于其他地理种群,但3个地理种群骆驼刺叶片中C∶N,C∶P,N∶P比值保持恒定,C∶N=30.6±4.3,C∶P=357.4±49.9,N∶P=12.0±2.4,说明骆驼刺能够保持较高内稳性,这也可能是其在新疆各地广泛生存的重要原因。     

Composted sewage sludge can improve the physiological properties of<Emphasis Type="Italic">Betula schmidtii</Emphasis> grown in tailings

We investigated how the application of composted sewage sludge to tailings affects the physiological response of woody plants growing on abandoned coal-mining sites. Twenty seedlings ofBetula schmidtii were transplanted to pots containing various combinations of artificial soil plus nursery soil, tailings, composted soil, or tailings amended with composted soil. Dry weights, shoot to root ratios, relative growth rates (RGR), chlorophyll content and fluorescence, and carbohydrate concentrations were assessed at the end of the experiment. Growth responses differed significantly among soil types. For example, dry weights were greatest for seedlings grown in composted soil and smallest for plants raised in pure tailings. Shoot to root ratios were higher for seedlings in composted soil compared with those in either tailings or nursery soil. Leaf chlorophyll content was twice as high for seedlings from composted soil than for those in the nursery soil or tailings; chlorophyll fluorescence (Fv/Fm) was lower for seedlings in either nursery soil or tailings than for those in composted soil. In contrast, plants grown in either nursery soil or tailings had higher starch concentrations in their stems, whereas the carbohydrate allocation of seedlings in composted soil was highest in the leaves, followed by stems and roots. Overall, the carbohydrate content was highest in the leaves, except for seedlings treated with tailings. Therefore, we believe that composted soil can improve the physiological and biochemical properties of trees growing in tailings when appropriate nutrients are supplemented.     

外源CaCl2对NaCl胁迫下酸枣幼苗氮代谢的影响

为了研究CaCl₂对NaCl胁迫下酸枣幼苗根、茎、叶的氮代谢影响,探索钙缓解幼苗NaCl胁迫的作用途径。该研究以酸枣幼苗为试验材料,检测不同浓度CaCl₂(0、5、10、20 mmol/L)对NaCl(150 mmol/L)胁迫下幼苗叶片H₂O₂、O^-·₂含量,根、茎、叶中硝酸还原酶(NR)、谷氨酰胺合成酶(GS)、谷氨酸合酶(GOGAT)活性及游离氨基酸、可溶性蛋白、硝态氮含量的影响,并采用主成分分析法筛选出评价CaCl₂缓解NaCl胁迫效应的生理指标。结果表明：与NaCl胁迫相比,盐胁迫幼苗叶片的H2O₂、O^-·₂积累量在5、10 mmol/L CaCl₂处理下显著减少;GOGAT活性在5、10 mmol/L CaCl₂处理下的植株根和茎内以及各浓度 CaCl₂处理的叶内均显著升高, GS、NR活性在10、20 mmol/L CaCl₂处理的根内和10 mmol/L CaCl₂处理的茎内以及5、10、20 mmol/L CaCl₂处理的叶内均显著升高;可溶性蛋白含量在5、10、20 mmol/L CaCl₂处理的根、茎、叶内均显著升高,游离氨基酸含量在10、20 mmol/L CaCl₂处理的根和茎内以及10 mmol/L CaCl₂处理的叶内均显著升高,硝态氮含量在10 mmol/L CaCl₂处理的根和茎内以及5、10、20 mmol/L CaCl₂处理的叶内均显著升高。研究发现,150 mmol/L NaCl胁迫对酸枣幼苗造成明显过氧化伤害,抑制了体内氮代谢;外源CaCl₂可通过促进幼苗根和茎内GS/GOGAT循环对NH₄⁺的同化作用,提高叶片NR活性,加快硝态氮的转化速率,从而增强幼苗对NaCl胁迫的适应性,并以10 mmol/L CaCl₂处理缓解效果最佳;游离氨基酸、GOGAT、NR可以作为CaCl₂缓解幼苗NaCl胁迫伤害的评价指标。     

不同培育方式对橡胶树实生苗生理指标、养分及长势的影响

橡胶树(Heveabrasiliensis)种子催芽生长一般使用沙床培育,沙子是不可再生资源,为了选择一种适合橡胶树种子培育方式来替代对沙子的依赖,该研究通过水培、悬空培育和传统的沙培比较橡胶树实生苗第1蓬叶稳定时,苗木的生长势、生理指标及养分含量。结果表明,水培实生苗地上部株高、茎粗、叶面积的长势最佳,壮苗指数和生物量的含量最高,但其根太长,根相对较细。水培的叶、茎、根的可溶性糖、丙二醛、游离脯氨酸、超氧化物歧化酶的含量均较低;水培和悬空培育的叶片和茎的叶绿素、类胡萝卜素及根系活力的含量没有显著性差异,均高于沙培。水培的叶、茎、根中的氮和磷含量最低,沙培的最高;而水培实生苗根和茎中钾的含量较高,叶片中含量与悬空培育、沙培均没有显著性差异;悬空培育在叶、茎、根中钾的含量最低。水培促进了苗木的生长,降低干旱胁迫,提高养分利用率,但后续还需调控根系,建设良好根团。悬空培育的苗木长势较弱,还需进一步完善方法。     

土壤自然干旱处理对钩藤生长与生理特征及主要药用成分积累的影响

以一年生钩藤实生苗为试材,通过连续土壤控水12 d盆栽试验,研究持续性土壤自然干旱对钩藤幼苗生长、抗逆生理指标及其主要药用成分含量的影响。结果表明:(1)随着干旱胁迫时间的延长,钩藤根和茎叶生物量以及叶片相对含水量(RWC)显著持续下降(P0.05),而根冠比、叶片丙二醛(MDA)含量及相对电导率(REC)逐渐升高。(2)随着干旱胁迫时间的延长,钩藤叶片叶绿素a、b含量先增高后下降,叶片超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性先上升后下降,且POD活性最先达到峰值,CAT活性增幅最大;叶片中脯氨酸(Pro)、可溶性糖(SS)和可溶性蛋白(SP)含量逐渐升高,且Pro表现出更强的渗透调节能力。(3)钩藤幼苗叶片、主茎和带钩茎枝中钩藤碱与异钩藤碱含量随着干旱胁迫时间的延长而呈先增高后下降的趋势,响应时间先后顺序依次为叶片、主茎、带钩茎枝,生物碱含量由高到低依次为带钩茎枝、叶片、主茎。研究发现,在土壤持续自然干旱条件下,钩藤幼苗生长受到一定影响,但植株能通过提高其抗氧化酶活性和积累渗透调节物质来提高吸水和保水能力,有效抵御干旱逆境;且土壤自然干旱胁迫4～8 d有利于主要药效成分钩藤碱与异钩藤碱的积累;土壤相对含水量在42%～53%时,钩藤幼苗耐旱性较强且钩藤碱与异钩藤碱含量较高。     

Autumnal changes in tissue nitrogen of autumn olive,black alder and eastern cottonwood

Two experiments were conducted to determine patterns of N change in tissues of autumn olive (Elaeagnus umbellata Thunb.) and black alder (Alnus glutinosa [L.] Gaertn.) during autumn in central Illinois, U.S.A. In the first study leaf nitrogen concentrations of autumn olive decreased 40% at an infertile minespoil site and 39% at a fertile prairie site throughout autumn whereas nitrogen concentrations in respective bark samples increased by 39% and 37%. Salt-extractable protein concentrations increased in bark and decreased in leaves over the sampling period. Free amino acid concentrations of autumn olive leaves decreased over the course of the experiment from peak concentrations in August. Asparagine, glutamic acid and proline were major constituents of the free amino acid pools in leaves. Total phosphorus concentrations of autumn olive leaves declined by 40–46% during autumn while bark concentrations of P did not significantly change.In the second experiment non-nodulated seedlings of alder receiving a low level of N-fertilization did not exhibit net resorption of leaf N during autumn whereas foliar N concentration of contrasting nonactinorhizal cottonwood plants (Populus deltoides Bartr. ex. Marsh) under the same fertilization regime decreased by 27% after the first frost. A gradual but significant decrease of 38% in foliar N concentration of nodulated alder seedlings grown under a low N-fertilization regime was associated with the cessation of nitrogenase activity during autumn in nodules. Compared with the low N fertilization regime, the higher level of N-fertilization resulted in smaller autumnal decreases of foliar N concentration in nodulated alder (17%) and in cottonwood (20%); but there was no decrease in foliar N concentration in non-nodulated alder. The higher level of N-fertilization promoted a greater accumulation of N in the roots than in the bark of both tree species after the first frost.Our results suggest that black alder lackingFrankia symbionts does not exhibit net leaf N resorption and that autumnal decreases in leaf N ofFrankia-nodulated black alder result primarily from declining foliar N import relative to export due to low temperature inhibition of N₂ fixation. In contrast, autumn olive exhibited greater and more precipitous autumnal declines in foliar N concentration than those of alder, and the pattern of N decline was unaffected by site fertility.     

不同盐胁迫下小麦叶片渗透性调节和叶绿素荧光特性

盐胁迫对植物伤害机理受到普遍关注。本试验以‘西旱3号’小麦幼苗为材料,通过比较钠盐(150 mmol·L^-1)、钙盐(5、30 mmol·L^-1)单独及其复合胁迫对叶片渗透调节和光合特性的影响,揭示不同盐胁迫对小麦的伤害机理。结果表明: 钠盐或钙盐单独胁迫显著抑制了小麦幼苗根、茎的生长,使叶片可溶性糖和脯氨酸含量、调节性能量耗散电子产量、非光化学猝灭及玉米黄质相对含量均显著增加,而叶绿素a和叶绿素b含量、最大光化学效率、PSⅡ实际光化学效率、光化学猝灭及光合电子传递效率均显著下降。此外,钙盐对小麦幼苗生长的抑制作用更强,钠盐处理下叶片叶绿素含量减少和叶绿素荧光参数降低更显著。除了可溶性蛋白、叶黄素和玉米黄质相对含量以外,低浓度钙盐有效缓解了钠盐诱导其他各指标的变化,而高浓度钙盐进一步增大了钠盐处理小麦幼苗各参数的变化幅度。总之,钠盐和钙盐显著抑制了小麦幼苗的生长,低浓度钙盐能有效缓解钠盐对小麦幼苗的伤害,而高浓度钙盐加剧了钠盐的毒害作用。这均与叶片光合色素含量、光能捕获及光合电子传递的改变有关。此外,渗透调节物质在增强钠盐或钙盐环境中小麦幼苗的抗性方面发挥着重要作用。     

硝普钠对缺铁和硝酸盐胁迫下番茄幼苗生长及生理特性的影响

采用营养液培养方法,研究外源NO供体(硝普钠,SNP)对缺铁和硝酸盐胁迫番茄幼苗生长、养分吸收及抗氧化酶活性的影响.结果表明: 处理7 d后,缺铁使番茄幼苗生长受到抑制,叶绿素a、b、类萝卜素含量显著降低,出现明显失绿症状;降低叶片中超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)的活性,电解质渗漏率、丙二醛含量明显增加,脯氨酸和可溶性糖含量变化不显著,幼苗叶片和根中N、P、K、Ca、Mg、Fe含量比对照处理有不同程度的减少.硝酸盐和缺铁双重胁迫对番茄幼苗生长抑制加剧,叶绿素a、b、类萝卜素含量、SOD、POD和CAT活性显著降低,电解质渗漏率、脯氨酸、可溶性糖和丙二醛含量明显增加;番茄幼苗叶片和根中N、P、Mg、Fe含量显著减少,而K、Ca含量显著增加. 与不添加处理相比,添加0.1 mmol·L^-1 SNP处理使胁迫番茄幼苗的生长抑制明显缓解.添加0.1 mmol·L^-1 SF(亚铁氰化钠)的处理在SOD、POD和CAT等指标上也表现出一定程度的缓解或促进作用,但其他生理指标没有表现出缓解或促进作用,原因是SF中也含有铁离子.     

Small-scale spatial heterogeneity in the vertical distribution of soil nutrients has limited effects on the growth and development of Prosopis glandulosa seedlings

We examined the above- and below-ground responses of seedlings of the woody shrub Prosopis glandulosa to the spatial heterogeneity of soil nutrients within the root zone. We performed a microcosm experiment where seedlings were grown with different combinations of nutrients [nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and both combined (NP)] and under different levels of nutrient heterogeneity (nutrients supplied as patches located in the bottom and/or upper portion of rooting zone versus homogeneous distribution). Seedling morphology and biomass did not show a strong response to changes in nutrient ion or spatial heterogeneity. Height, number of leaves, and specific leaf area did not vary significantly between treatments. The number of leaves, foliar biomass, stem biomass and biomass allocation to stems of seedlings showed more responsiveness to the addition of N and NP than to the addition of P. The spatial heterogeneity of nutrients affected the diameter, root biomass and leaf N content. Seedlings had higher diameter and root biomass when the nutrients were homogeneously distributed as compared to their placement as patches in the bottom of the microcosms. Their leaf N concentration increased in those treatments where the nutrient patch was located in the lower half as compared to the upper half of the microcosms. Root foraging responses to nutrient patches varied with their location. Significant root proliferation was observed when patches of N, P and NP were located in the upper portion of the rooting zone; when they were located in the lower portion such a response was observed only for P. Despite our findings that Prosopis seedlings have a low overall responsiveness to small-scale vertical differences in soil nutrient heterogeneity, our results suggest that these differences may modify the growth dynamics of the secondary roots of this ecologically important dryland species during the early stages of its development.     

海水胁迫对苦荬菜幼苗生长及生理特性的影响

抗盐耐海水植物的种植是有效利用和开发滩涂资源的措施之一。采用温室砂培方式, 研究了不同稀释配比的海水处理8天对苦荬菜(Lactuca indica)幼苗生物量、根冠比、叶绿素含量、离子含量、可溶性蛋白和可溶性糖含量的影响。结果表明: 苦荬菜幼苗地上部受海水胁迫较为显著, 而根在海水浓度小于30%时与对照相比没有显著差异; 根冠比随着海水浓度的增加而不断提高; 在10%和20%海水浓度处理下, 叶绿素含量与对照相比差异不显著, 但随着海水浓度的进一步增加,叶绿素含量显著下降; 在10%海水浓度处理下, 苦荬菜地上部分及根部的K⁺含量与对照相比差异不显著, 而海水浓度高于10%时, 随着海水浓度的增加地上部和根部的K⁺含量均逐渐降低; 海水处理下, 苦荬菜体内Na⁺和Cl^–含量逐渐增加; 地上部可溶性糖含量逐渐增加, 而可溶性蛋白含量先升后降。海水胁迫下, 苦荬菜幼苗维持一定的K⁺选择性吸收是其一定程度上盐适应的重要原因。同时, 积累的可溶性糖和可溶性蛋白是苦荬菜幼苗在盐胁迫下的重要渗透调节物质, 可作为其抗盐性的生理参数。     

岳桦幼苗光合特性和非结构性碳水化合物积累对干旱胁迫的响应

以长白山林线树种岳桦为对象,利用生长控制试验进行干旱处理,研究干旱对岳桦幼苗光合特性及非结构性碳水化合物(NSC)积累的影响.结果表明:干旱显著降低了岳桦幼苗的净光合速率和气孔导度,提高了其水分利用效率;干旱显著增加了岳桦幼苗叶、皮、干和根中的可溶性糖和总NSC的含量,但显著降低了淀粉含量;随着干旱的持续,叶片的气孔导...     

翅果油树幼苗对NaCl胁迫的生理生化反应

研究了不同浓度NaCl处理对翅果油树幼苗高度、叶绿素含量、膜脂过氧化和保护酶活性的影响.结果表明,随着NaCl浓度的升高和胁迫时间的延长,幼苗高度明显受到抑制,叶绿素含量呈下降趋势.整个处理过程中,丙二醛(MDA)含量逐渐增加,但增加幅度不大,表明脂质过氧化反应水平不高.各处理浓度的叶片相对电导率、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)活性均呈上升趋势.研究表明,翅果油树幼苗在NaCl胁迫下有活性较高的膜保护酶系统,具有一定的抗盐能力.     

EFFECTS OF GIBBERELLIN AND AMO-1618 ON GROWTH,DRY-MATTER ACCUMULATION,CHLOROPHYLL CONTENT AND PEROXIDASE ACTIVITY OF CITRUS SEEDLINGS

Monselise , S. P., and A. H. Halevy . (Hebrew U., Rehovot, Israel.) Effects of gibberellin and AMO–1618 on growth, dry-matter accumulation, chlorophyll content and peroxidase activity of citrus seedlings. Amer. Jour. Bot. 49(4): 405–412. Illus. 1962.—Sweet-lime seedlings, 6 months old, were sprayed with gibberellic acid (GA) and a growth retardant, AMO–1618, alone and in combination, at concentrations ranging between SO and 1600 ppm. Increasing concentrations of GA progressively increased shoot and internode length, did not influence number of leaves, and decreased leaf area. Dry weight of shoots was progressively increased up to 400 ppm, while dry weights of leaves and roots were decreased over all GA concentrations. Total dry weight of plants was increased by GA when related to leaf area or weight and to total chlorophyll content, which indicates a higher synthetic efficiency of leaves. This could not be detected by manometric determinations using leaf discs. It is suggested that a short determination period and/or work with detached leaves are responsible for failures to detect increased photosynthetic activity of GA-treated leaves. Chlorophyll content of leaves was decreased by increasing GA concentrations; it is shown that this is not due to “dilution” over a larger area of leaves. Peroxidase activity of leaves was only slightly reduced by GA, while it was increased by AMC–1618, acting as antagonist to GA. This is remarkable, since AMO–1618 did not clearly affect other procperties of citrus seedlings which are only slightly responsive to this chemical.     

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Alter Fractal Dimension Characteristics of Robinia pseudoacacia L. Seedlings Through Regulating Plant Growth,Leaf Water Status,Photosynthesis, and Nutrient Concentration Under Drought Stress

The influence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), Funneliformis mosseae and Rhizophagus intraradices, on plant growth, leaf water status, chlorophyll concentration, photosynthesis, nutrient concentration, and fractal dimension (FD) characteristics of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) seedlings was studied in pot culture under well-watered, moderate drought stress, and severe drought stress treatments. Mycorrhizal seedlings had higher dry biomass, leaf relative water content (RWC), and water use efficiency (WUE) compared with non-mycorrhizal seedlings. Under all treatments, AMF colonization notably enhanced net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and transpiration rate, but decreased intercellular CO₂ concentration. Leaf chlorophyll a and total chlorophyll concentrations were higher in AM seedlings than those in non-AM seedlings although there was no significant difference between AMF species. AMF colonization improved leaf C, N, and P concentrations, but decreased C:N, C:P, and N:P ratios. Mycorrhizal seedlings had a larger FD value than non-mycorrhizal seedlings. The FD value was positively and significantly correlated to the plant growth parameters, photosynthesis, RWC, WUE, and nutrient concentration but negatively correlated to leaf/stem ratio, C:N and C:P ratios, and intercellular CO₂ concentration. We conclude that AMF lead to an improvement of growth performance of black locust seedlings under all growth conditions, including drought stress via improving leaf water status, chlorophyll concentration, photosynthesis, and nutrient uptake. Moreover, FD technology proved to be a powerful non-destructive method to characterize the effect of AMF on the physiology of host plants during drought stress.
