Determining the Optimal Sowing Density for a Mixture of Native Plants Used to Revegetate Degraded Ecosystems 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

No standardized, objective methodology exists for optimizing seeding rates when establishing herbaceous plant cover for pastures, hay fields, ecological restoration, or other revegetation activities. Seeding densities, fertilizer use, season of seeding, and the interaction of these treatments were tested using native plants on degraded sites in northern British Columbia, Canada. A mixture of 20% Achillea millefolium, 20% Carex aenea, 20% Elymus glaucus, 20% Festuca occidentalis, 16% Geum macrophyllum, and 4% Lupinus polyphyllus seed was applied at 0, 375, 750, 1,500, 3,000, and 6,000 pure live seed (PLS) per m2 in 2.5 × 2.5–m rototilled test plots, established in the fall and spring, with and without fertilizer. There was no significant difference in plant cover of sown species between fall seeding and spring seeding, and few treatment interactions were identified in the first 2 years after sowing. There was no significant difference in cover between seed densities of 3,000 and 6,000 PLS/m2 in the first year, nor among 1,500, 3,000, and 6,000 PLS/m2 treatments in the second year. Seed densities as low as 375 PLS/m2 produced year 2 plant cover equivalent to that observed at 3,000 PLS/m2 in year 1. Plots sown to seed densities less than or equal to 750 PLS/m2 generally exhibited an increase (infilling) in plant density from year 1 to year 2, whereas plots sown to seed densities greater than or equal to 1,500 PLS/m2 generally exhibited a decrease (density‐dependent mortality) in plant density. These results imply a most efficient sowing density between 750 and 1,500 PLS/m2 (corresponding to 190–301 established plants.m?2 after two growing seasons). It is suggested that net changes in plant populations observed over a range of sowing densities are a robust and objective means of determining optimal sowing densities for the establishment of herbaceous perennials. 相似文献

The conformational preferences of helix foldamers having different sizes of the H‐bonded pseudocycles have been studied for di‐ to octa‐γ2,3‐peptides based on 2‐(aminomethyl)cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (γAmc6) with a cyclohexyl constraint on the Cα–Cβ bond using density functional methods. The helical structures of the γAmc6 oligopeptides with homochiral configurations are known to be much stable than those with heterochiral configurations in the gas phase and in solution (chloroform and water). In particular, it is found that the (P/M)?2.514‐helices are most preferred in the gas phase and in chloroform, whereas the (P/M)?2.312‐helices become most populated in water due to the larger helix dipole moments. As the peptide sequence becomes longer, the helix propensities of 14‐ and 12‐helices are found to increase both in the gas phase and in solution. The γAmc6 peptides longer than octapeptide are expected to exist as a mixture of 12‐ and 14‐helices with the similar populations in water. The mean backbone torsion angles and helical parameters of the 14‐helix foldamers of γAmc6 oligopeptides are quite similar to those of 2‐aminocyclohexylacetic acid oligopeptides and γ2,3,4‐aminobutyric acid tetrapeptide in the solid state, despite the different substituents on the backbone. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Topoisomerase inhibitors are used as anticancer and antibacterial agents. A series of novel 2,4,6-tri-substituted pyridine derivatives reported as topoisomerase inhibitors were used for quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) study. In order to understand the structural requirement of these topoisomerase inhibitors, a ligand-based pharmacophore and atom-based 3D-QSAR model have been developed. A five-point pharmacophore with one hydrophobic group (H4), four aromatic rings (R5, R6, R7 and R8) was obtained. The pharmacophore hypothesis yielded a 3D-QSAR model with good partial least-square (PLS) statistic results. The training set correlation is characterized by PLS factors (r2 = 0.7892, SD = 0.2948, F = 49.9, P = 1.379). The test set correlation is characterized by PLS factors (q2 = 0.7776, root mean squared error = 0.2764, Pearson R = 0.8926). The docking study revealed the binding orientations of these inhibitors at active site amino acid residues of topoisomerases enzyme. The results of pharmacophore hypothesis and 3D-QSAR provided the detail structural insights as well as highlighted the important binding features of novel 2,4,6-tri-substituted pyridine derivatives and can be developed as potent topoisomerase inhibitors.
