科尔沁沙地黄柳气孔导度和水分状况随季节和地形的变化特征①

黄柳叶片气孔导度在上午８时后即呈下降趋势,下表皮气孔导度大于上表皮。干旱季节上下表皮气孔日间开启程度不同,下表皮气孔受环境因子的影响较大;湿润季节则相同。不同季节气孔导度值不同,下表皮气孔对季节变化反应灵敏。不同季节黄柳体内水分状况参数值不同,在５、６月份抗旱性最强;沙丘不同部位各参数值亦不相同,在沙丘中部和丘脚抗旱性最强,而在丘顶水分状况最好。湿润的７月黄柳一日内各时刻的膨压值均大于０,说明经期     

高羊茅叶片表皮蜡质含量与其抗旱性的关系

以14个高羊茅品种为试验材料,在田间试验中对干旱高温胁迫下的叶片表皮蜡质含量、净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度、胞间CO2浓度等生理指标测定分析。结果表明,干热胁迫下高羊茅品种间的叶片表皮蜡质含量和水分利用效率均存在极显著差异(P<0.01);叶片蜡质含量与综合抗旱性和水分利用效率的等级相关系数分别为0.78(P<0.01)和0.68(P<0.01);蜡质含量越高的品种,其叶片气孔导度和胞间CO2浓度越低,水分利用效率越高,但所有品种的水分利用效率绝对值都较低。研究发现,在干热胁迫时,高羊茅叶片表皮蜡质可通过对气孔导度的调节来减少气孔蒸腾,提高水分利用效率,最终提高其抗旱性;表皮蜡质含量可以作为高羊茅品种抗旱性鉴定的一个新指标。

不同R∶FR值对菊花叶片气孔特征和气孔导度的影响

以切花菊品种"神马(Jinba)"为试材,2010年10月至2011年2月间在南京信息工程大学试验温室采用不同Red (660±10) nm: Far-red (730±10) nm值的LED光源短日处理,研究了温室切花菊叶片气孔特征和气孔导度对不同R∶FR值的响应。结果表明:不同R∶FR值短日处理35d菊花叶片的上表皮和下表皮的气孔直径分别以R∶FR值4.5和6.5处理最大,均以R∶FR值2.5处理最小,气孔密度和气孔开度均以R∶FR=2.5处理最高,以R∶FR值6.5处理最低,下表皮的气孔密度、气孔开度明显高于上表皮;不同R∶FR值处理叶片的气孔开张比和气孔指数差异不显著;在相同光强下,菊花叶片气孔导度和光合速率由大到小的R∶FR值顺序依次为2.5、4.5、0.5、6.5。叶片气孔导度与气孔指数、气孔密度、气孔开张比和气孔开度成正相关,与气孔长度和气孔宽度呈负相关;R∶FR值在2.5-6.5范围内,随光质中红光成分增加,叶片气孔密度、气孔指数、气孔开度、气孔开张比和气孔导度显著降低。     

CO2浓度、氮和水分对春小麦光合、蒸散及水分利用效率的影响

研究了不同土壤氮和土壤水分条件下,大气CO2浓度升高对春小麦光合作用、气孔导度、蒸散和水分利用效率的影响。结果表明,CO2浓度升高,干旱处理的春小麦（Triticum aestivum L.）叶片光合作用速率幅度增加大于湿润处理,随着氮肥用量增加光合速率相应增加,而不施氮脂增加有限;干旱处理气孔导度幅度减少大于湿润处理,不施氮肥的大于氮肥充足的CO2浓度升高,干旱处理的蒸散量减少比湿润处理多,不施氮肥的蒸散量减少较为明显;但干旱处理单叶WUE增加大于湿润处理;随着氮肥用量增加,冠层WUE提高,而不施氮肥的冠层WUE最低。因而CO2浓度升高、光合速率增加和蒸散量减少会减缓干旱的不利影响,增强作物对干旱胁迫的抵御能力。     

胡杨叶片气孔导度特征及其对环境因子的响应

依据2005年对极端干旱区荒漠河岸林胡杨的观测资料,对胡杨气孔运动进行了分析研究以揭示胡杨的水分利用特征与抗旱机理。结果表明:(1)胡杨叶片气孔导度日变化呈现为周期波动曲线,其波动周期为2 h,傍晚(20:00)波动消失;净光合速率和蒸腾速率与气孔导度的波动相对应而呈现同步周期波动。(2)胡杨的阳生叶气孔导度高于阴生叶,且不同季节气孔导度值不同,阳生叶气孔导度的季节变幅大于阴生叶。(3)胡杨气孔导度与气温、相对湿度和叶水势有显著相关关系,当CO2浓度较小时,胡杨气孔导度随CO2浓度的增加而增加,当CO2浓度达到一定值后气孔导度不再增加,反而随CO2浓度的增加大幅度降低。(4)胡杨适应极端干旱区生境的气孔调节机制为反馈式反应,即由于叶水势降低导致气孔导度减小,从而减少蒸腾耗水,达到节约用水、适应干旱的目的,表明胡杨的水分利用效率随气孔限制值的增大而减小,二者呈显著负相关。     

弱光下生长的葡萄叶片蒸腾速率和气孔结构的变化

 植物能够对生长环境产生生态适应性,这种适应性可从气孔导度、光合速率、水分利用效率等生态指标上反映出来。为了研究葡萄蒸腾特性对弱光环境的适应性变化,本试验以‘京玉’葡萄幼苗（Vitis vinefera cv. Jingyu）为试验材料,通过遮光处理（2个处理,分别遮光65%和85%）营造弱光环境,测定了在弱光环境下生长的葡萄叶片蒸腾速率、气孔导度、水分利用效率对光照强度的响应,同时用扫描电镜技术观察了气孔的发育。结果表明,弱光环境下生长的葡萄幼苗,叶片的水势较高,但水分利用效率较低,叶片蒸腾速率和气孔导度变化对光照强度的响应缓慢,而自然光下生长的葡萄叶片则反应较迅速。通过对气孔结构的研究发现,与自然光照环境下生长的植株相比,在弱光环境下生长的葡萄幼苗,叶片下表皮的气孔横轴变宽,大小气孔之间差异减少,气孔外突,表皮细胞变大甚至扭曲,角质层变薄。说明葡萄幼苗能够对弱光环境产生适应性变化,其蒸腾特性的变化与其气孔结构的变化相关,具有一致性。     

冬小麦叶片气孔导度模型水分响应函数的参数化

植物气孔导度模型的水分响应函数用来模拟水分胁迫对气孔导度的影响过程, 是模拟缺水环境下植物与大气间水、碳交换过程的关键算法。水分响应函数包括空气湿度响应函数和土壤湿度(或植物水势)响应函数, 该研究基于田间实验观测, 分析了冬小麦(Triticum aestivum)叶片气孔导度对不同空气饱和差和不同土壤体积含水量或叶水势的响应规律。一个土壤水分梯度的田间处理在中国科学院禹城综合试验站实施, 不同水分胁迫下的冬小麦叶片气体交换过程和气孔导度以及其他的温湿度数据被观测, 同时观测了土壤含水量和叶水势。实验数据表明, 冬小麦叶片气孔导度对空气饱和差的响应呈现双曲线规律, 变化趋势显示大约1 kPa空气饱和差是一个有用的阈值, 在小于1 kPa时, 冬小麦气孔导度对空气饱和差变化反应敏感, 而大于1 kPa后则反应缓慢; 分析土壤体积含水量与中午叶片气孔导度的关系发现, 中午叶片气孔导度随土壤含水量增加大致呈现线性增加趋势, 但在平均土壤体积含水量大于大约25%以后, 气孔导度不再明显增加, 而是维持在较高导度值上下波动; 冬小麦中午叶片水势与相应的气孔导度之间, 随着叶水势的增加, 气孔导度呈现增加趋势。根据冬小麦气孔导度对空气湿度、土壤湿度和叶水势的响应规律, 研究分别采用双曲线和幂指数形式拟合了水汽响应函数, 用三段线性方程拟合了土壤湿度响应函数和植物水势响应函数, 得到的参数可以为模型模拟冬小麦的各类水、热、碳交换过程采用。

CO2浓度、氮和水分对春小麦光合、蒸散及水分利用效率的影响

研究了不同土壤氮和土壤水分条件下,大气CO₂浓度升高对春小麦光合作用、气孔导度、蒸散和水分利用效率的影响.结果表明,CO₂浓度升高,干旱处理的春小麦(Triticum aestivum L.)叶片光合作用速率幅度增加大于湿润处理,随着氮肥用量增加光合速率相应增加,而不施氮肥增加有限;干旱处理气孔导度幅度减少大于湿润处理,不施氮肥的大于氮肥充足的.CO₂浓度升高,干旱处理的蒸散量减少比湿润处理多,不施氮肥的蒸散量减少较为明显;但干旱处理单叶WUE增加大于湿润处理;随着氮肥用量增加,冠层WUE提高,而不施氮肥的冠层WUE最低.因而CO₂浓度升高、光合速率增加和蒸散量减少会减缓干旱的不利影响,增强作物对干旱胁迫的抵御能力.

Leaf hydraulic conductivity and stomatal responses to humidity in amphistomatous leaves

The response of stomata to changes in humidity for a single surface of an amphistomatous leaf was investigated in Xanthium strumarium and Vicia faba using gas exchange and direct observation of stomatal apertures. The stomatal response to humidity for a given surface was found to be the same whether or not the humidity for the opposite surface was changed concurrently. Stomata on the surface for which humidity was constant showed no response to changes in humidity for the opposite surface. Despite large changes in epidermal turgor on the surface for which humidity was changed, there was no change in epidermal turgor for the surface with constant humidity. Measurements of transpiration and epidermal turgor as functions of the mole fraction gradient of water between leaf and air were used to calculate a value for leaf hydraulic resistance. The results suggest that in these species, the mechanism for the stomatal response to humidity resides in the epidermis or the mesophyll very close to the epidermis, and that most of the hydraulic resistance of the leaf occurs between the xylem and the evaporating sites.     

Interrelationships between water use and growth traits in biomass-producing willows

Abstract Water use, drought response and growth were examined under controlled conditions in four interbreeding willow species from different geographical origins (two clones of Salix viminalis L., one clone of S. viminalis × S. schwerenii E. Wolf and one clone of S. purpurea L.). The levels of soil water depletion that plants could sustain without wilting varied markedly between the clones. The level of drought resistance expressed this way was positively related to resistance to xylem cavitation, negatively related to the maximum stomatal conductance, and positively related to early stomatal closure. The rate of stomatal closure, however, was negatively related to the resistance to xylem cavitation. Prior to drought, there were no significant differences between leaf-specific hydraulic conductances of the clones when whole plants were considered. However, there were differences if the roots and shoots were considered separately. Drought resistance was negatively related to maximum growth yields. This is probably because resources were diverted away from leaf production to the production of denser wood (wood density was positively related to cavitation resistance), and, for one clone, to the growth of a larger root system. In addition, because the level of drought resistance was negatively related to the maximum stomatal conductance, growth may have been adversely affected as a result of reduced photosynthesis. Given its high water extraction ability, one of the clones started to wilt sooner than expected, although only lateral shoots were affected. This appeared to indicate a strategy of sacrificing expendable shoots.     

浑善达克沙地不同植物功能型光合作用和水分利用特征的比较

为了比较不同植物功能型在沙地生境下光合作用和水分利用效率的差异,测定了浑善达克沙地3种功能型的代表种的气体交换特征来比较它们的光合碳固定能力和水分利用状况。3个代表种的气体交换日变化结果表明乔木的光合速率和水分利用效率比草本和灌木的低,而蒸腾速率和气孔导度较高,经过中午的光合午休后,乔木的光合速率在下午没有恢复,而草本和灌木都有不同程度的恢复。在所测定的所有代表物种中,研究地全部的乔木(3种)和灌木(6种)以及典型的草本(2 5种) ,气孔导度与光合速率和蒸腾速率都成显著的正相关关系;另外,在同样的叶片水势情况下,乔木植物的气孔导度最低,在同样的蒸腾速率情况下,乔木植物的光合速率最低。这些结果表明乔木在CO2 同化和H2 O蒸腾平衡上具有低的水分利用效率。从这个角度考虑,我们认为在对沙地进行恢复时,一些草本和灌木种比乔木更合适     

Dynamics of stomatal water relations during the humidity response: implications of two hypothetical mechanisms

The feasibility of two hypothetical mechanisms for the stomatal response to humidity was evaluated by identifying theoretical constraints on these mechanisms and by analysing timecourses of stomatal aperture following a step change in humidity. The two hypothetical mechanisms, which allow guard cell turgor pressure to overcome the epidermal mechanical advantage, are: (1) active regulation of guard cell osmotic pressure, requiring no hydraulic disequilibrium between guard and epidermal cells, and (2) a substantial hydraulic resistance between guard and epidermal cells, resulting in hydraulic disequilibrium between them. Numerical simulations of the system are made possible by recently published empirical relationships between guard cell pressure and volume and between stomatal aperture, guard cell turgor pressure, and epidermal cell turgor pressure; these data allow the hypothetical control variables to be inferred from stomatal aperture and evaporative demand, given physical assumptions that characterize either hypothesis. We show that hypothesis (1) predicts that steady‐state π_g is monotonically related to transpiration rate, whereas hypothesis (2) suggests that the relationship between transpiration rate and the steady‐state guard to epidermal cell hydraulic resistance may be either positive or negative, and that this resistance must change substantially during the transient phase of the stomatal response to humidity.     

Interdependence of growth, water relations and abscisic acid level in Phaseolus vulgaris during waterlogging

The interdependence between changes in growth and water relations after waterlogging was investigated by recording simultaneously growth, transpiration, water potential, turgor, leaf diffusion resistance and abscisic acid content in Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. bruine Noord-Hollandse. Growth was inhibited immediately after flooding, whereas transpiration decreased gradually to a low level in about three days. The first two days after flooding a small increase in abscisic acid content in the leaves was observed which was accompanied by an increase in diffusion resistance. The increase in abscisic acid content could result from an inhibited export from the leaves. After the first two days a decrease in water potential and turgor was accompanied by a drastic increase in both abscisic acid content and diffusion resistance. This large increase in abscisic acid content occurred before the turgor had reached its minimum value. The change in diffusion resistance kept showing a lag of about one day with the change in abscisic acid content. The possibility is discussed that besides abscisic acid also its metabolite phaseic acid is involved in stomatal closure. After the formation of adventitious roots on the hypocotyl, abscisic acid level, diffusion resistance, water potential and turgor returned to the control values. Transpiration showed a slow recovery from the sixth day after flooding, whereas growth was inhibited for at least nine days. A remarkable similarity exists between our observations on the responses of bean plants to flooding and the well known responses to drought.     

Drought resistance of mycorrhizal pepper plants independent of leaf P concentration - response in gas exchange and water relations

Pepper ( Capsicum annuum L.) plants with and without the VA-mycorrhizal fungus Ghmus deserticola Trappe. Bloss and Menge (VAM and NVAM. respectively), were drought acclimated by four drought cycles (DA) or kept well watered (NDA). All plants were then subjected to an additional drought followed by a 3-day irrigation recovery period. Measurements of water relations, gas exchange and carbohydrates were made at selected intervals throughout the drought cycles and recovery. To equalize growth and avoid higher P in VAM plants. NVAM plants received higher P fertilization. Consequently, similar transpirational surface and shoot mass were achieved in all treatments, but NVAM had a higher tissue P concentration than VAM plants. Plants that were either VAM or DA, but especially the VAM-DA plants, tended to be high in net photosynthetic flux (A), A per unit of tissue P concentration (A/P), stomatal conductance (g) or leaf turgor (Ψ_p) during high environmental stress or recovery from stress. During this time, NVAM-NDA plants had low A. A/P and leaf chlorophyll, but high soluble carbohydrate concentrations in their leaves. All VAM and DA plants had some osmotic adjustment compared to the NVAM-NDA plants, but VAM-DA plants had the most. Osmotic adjustment was not due to accumulation of soluble carbohydrate. The high turgor, A and g in the VAM-DA plants during and following environmental stress indicated superior drought resistance of these plants; however, osmotic adjustment was only apparent during recovery and cannot account for the observed drought resistance during environmental stress. Drought resistance of VAM-DA plants was not attributable to high leaf P concentration or confounded by differences in plant transpirational surface.     

PECTATE LYASE LIKE12 patterns the guard cell wall to coordinate turgor pressure and wall mechanics for proper stomatal function in Arabidopsis

Plant cell deformations are driven by cell pressurization and mechanical constraints imposed by the nanoscale architecture of the cell wall, but how these factors are controlled at the genetic and molecular levels to achieve different types of cell deformation is unclear. Here, we used stomatal guard cells to investigate the influences of wall mechanics and turgor pressure on cell deformation and demonstrate that the expression of the pectin-modifying gene PECTATE LYASE LIKE12 (PLL12) is required for normal stomatal dynamics in Arabidopsis thaliana. Using nanoindentation and finite element modeling to simultaneously measure wall modulus and turgor pressure, we found that both values undergo dynamic changes during induced stomatal opening and closure. PLL12 is required for guard cells to maintain normal wall modulus and turgor pressure during stomatal responses to light and to tune the levels of calcium crosslinked pectin in guard cell walls. Guard cell-specific knockdown of PLL12 caused defects in stomatal responses and reduced leaf growth, which were associated with lower cell proliferation but normal cell expansion. Together, these results force us to revise our view of how wall-modifying genes modulate wall mechanics and cell pressurization to accomplish the dynamic cellular deformations that underlie stomatal function and tissue growth in plants.
