横断山区干旱河谷川滇蔷薇生长与繁殖特征的地理空间差异

通过大面积的野外踏查、种群调查和室内实验,分析了横断山区干旱河谷乡土灌木川滇蔷薇在岷江流域、大渡河流域、雅砻江流域和金沙江流域的分布、生长繁殖特征及其在流域间的差异。结果表明,川滇蔷薇广泛分布于四大流域,海拔范围1700m至3700 m,所调查的18个种群生长状况良好,株高2 m以上,明显高于群落中的其他灌木。主成分分析表明,地理位置(流域、纬度、经度、海拔)和土壤(全碳、总有机碳、全氮、pH值)是影响川滇蔷薇生长繁殖的主要因子,其中地理位置的影响更大。生长特征包括株高、地径和冠幅在18个种群间差异显著,但在不同的流域间差异不显著。丛萌生数在种群间差异显著,其差异性较其他生长特征弱,但丛萌生数在不同流域间差异显著:岷江流域显著大于雅砻江流域,金沙江流域显著大于大渡河流域。与生长和无性繁殖相比,有性繁殖特征表现出更强的空间差异性,果实重量、瘦果重量以及种子活力在居群间差异极显著,果实重量和种子活力在不同流域间差异显著,但瘦果重量在流域间的差异不显著。综合分析表明,川滇蔷薇生长和繁殖特征在横断山区干旱河谷存在较强空间差异性,较强无性繁殖是种群持续存活的保证,而有性繁殖及其强烈的空间差异为种群适应多变环境以及地理空间扩展提供了遗传基础。     

岷江干旱河谷黄蔷薇和川滇蔷薇更新能力及其限制因素

植物种子、种子库和幼苗库的研究是种群更新和植被恢复的重要内容.研究了岷江干旱河谷两种乡土灌木(黄蔷薇和川滇蔷薇)的种子、种子库和幼苗库特征.黄蔷薇和川滇蔷薇种子产量较高, 分别为(627±216)和(7832±4347)果/丛,但种子质量较差,饱满率分别为(49.62±1.03)%和(73.83±3.42)%,活力为(32.25±0.67)%和(55.38±2.5)%.黄蔷薇种子产量和活力低于川滇蔷薇,但其种子重量和休眠程度却远高于川滇蔷薇.两种蔷薇土壤种子库的水平和垂直分布格局相似:在水平分布上,离植株基部越近,种子密度越高;在垂直分布上,种子主要分布在地表层.黄蔷薇和川滇蔷薇种子库密度均较高,分别为(560±90)粒m2和(1955±235)粒/m2,但活力种子数量较少,分别为(26±4)粒/m2和(152±18)粒/m2, 处于休眠状态的种子,黄蔷薇(60.6%)较川滇蔷薇(18.4%)高,可萌发的种子,两者分别为(10±1)粒/m2和(124±14)粒/m2.黄蔷薇(65.3%)的种子库中被啮齿动物取食的比例较川滇蔷薇(0.5%)高.两种蔷薇的幼苗密度差异不大,黄薇幼苗密度((4.28±0.49)株/m2)略小于川滇蔷薇((5.24±1.28)株/m2).幼苗组成的总体趋势是高度级低的幼苗所占的比例相对较高,且Ⅰ级幼苗数显著高于较其他级幼苗数.研究表明,两种蔷薇种子存在休眠,能形成持久种子库,种子特征对种子库和幼苗库具有深刻影响.两种蔷薇更新状况不佳,比较而言,黄蔷薇更新较川滇蔷薇好.黄蔷薇更新的主要限制因素是动物对种子的破坏,而川滇蔷薇更新的主要限制因素是幼苗存活定居.

川滇高山栎种群不同海拔空间格局的尺度效应及个体间空间关联

川滇高山栎灌丛(Quercus aquifolioides)是我国西南高山典型的植被类型,研究其空间格局对于研究种群的生态学过程有重要意义。为了弄清川滇高山栎种群空间格局及其个体间空间关联对海拔,尺度和大小级等因素的响应情况,研究中应用点格局分析的方法,在巴郎山沿高山栎分布海拔范围设置4个海拔梯度,并根据体积大小将高山栎分为4个大小级等级,比较不同海拔、不同尺度、不同大小级间的高山栎种群空间格局及个体间空间关联。结果表明,川滇高山栎种群空间格局及其个体间关联与空间尺度、植株形体大小和海拔梯度密切相关:在小尺度上,种群趋向于聚集分布,个体间有较强的空间关联,随着空间尺度的增大,种群逐渐趋于随机分布,个体间空间关联减弱,区域无关联;个体间形体差异越小,个体间正关联就越强,个体间形体差异越大,正关联就越弱,负关联就越强;海拔因子对聚集分布的聚集规模和个体间关联的关联程度有较大影响。     

岷江上游干旱河谷区域空间变化的定量判定

采用遥感和地理信息系统技术,准确界定了岷江上游干旱河谷的范围,在此基础上分析了岷江上游干旱河谷的面积变化及其边界分布海拔的最高上限在垂直方向上的抬升距离。结果表明,干旱河谷面积在不断扩大,由1974年的93140hm2扩大到2000的123078hm2,其中1995～2000年间年变化率较1974～1995年有所降低;岷江上游干旱河谷的边界沿山体向上攀升非常迅速,1974岷江上游干旱河谷边界的最高上限海拔为3128m,1995年为3167m,较1974年抬升了39m;2000年为3181m,与1995年相比沿垂直方向向上抬升了14m。1974到2000年间岷江上游干旱河谷边界最高上限沿垂直方向抬升了53m,大约平均每年抬升2m。为了遏制干旱河谷进一步扩大的趋势,必须加大植被恢复和生态建设力度。     

岷江上游干旱河谷耕地和居民用地的空间特征

雅砻江和大渡河干旱河谷植被物种多样性比较:气候、地形与空间的影响

干旱河谷植被是我国西南横断山区的一类特殊的隐域性生态系统, 影响不同河谷之间植物群落差异的因素与作用大小尚不清楚。本研究调查了四川省雅砻江和大渡河流域干旱河谷段植被组成, 并比较了两个地区在植物多样性上的差别。结果表明: (1)影响两个地区植被类型的主要因素不同, 雅砻江干旱河谷植被主要受海拔和地形(坡度和坡向)影响, 大渡河干旱河谷植被主要受年平均降水量影响。(2)雅砻江和大渡河干旱河谷植物物种丰富度均随着年均温升高而降低。(3)坡向由北至南, 雅砻江干旱河谷灌木、草本物种丰富度减小, 而大渡河干旱河谷灌木、草本丰富度增加。(4)坡度越大, 雅砻江和大渡河干旱河谷灌木的丰富度越高。(5)雅砻江、大渡河干旱河谷植物β多样性受环境距离影响大, 受地理距离影响小。两条江植被间地理隔离效应约为地理距离产生差异的5倍。本研究弥补了干旱河谷研究中对于雅砻江和大渡河干旱河谷植物多样性研究的空白, 为相关区域植被保护提供了参考信息, 同时还为定量估计地理隔离效应对区域间生物多样性差异的影响提供了可行方法。     

岷江干旱河谷黄蔷薇(Rosa hugonis)生长与繁殖特征及其空间差异

对乡土植物生长繁殖特征的认识是制定合理的植被恢复及管理措施的基础和依据.通过大面积的野外踏查和样方调查,分析了岷江干旱河谷乡土灌木-黄蔷薇(Rosa hugonis)的分布、生长繁殖特征及空间差异.发现:(1)黄蔷薇主要分布于岷江干旱河谷的茂县段,其植株株高、基径、年龄、丛冠幅、丛的萌生数、丛干重、丛生物量和密度等生长特征存在明显空间差异,除丛萌生数和密度之外海拔对其他各参数都有较大的影响,这些参数的值在高海拔地段大于低海拔地段;(2)黄蔷薇在干旱河谷丛平均萌生数为6.48±0.97株/丛,丛的萌生能力较强,且其受砍伐后具有很强的再生能力;萌生株年龄结构大致为金字塔型,最大植株年龄为25a;(3)干旱河谷黄蔷薇的结实量较大,平均值为(404.96±106.91)果/丛,结实特征表现出明显的空间差异性;(4)各生长与结实参数关系密切,影响结实量的最主要的生长因素是冠幅和丛干重.研究结果表明:黄蔷薇适应干旱河谷的环境条件,具有较广泛的分布,生长和和繁殖状况良好,是可供选择的干旱河谷恢复物种.     

岷江干旱河谷区典型灌木对干旱胁迫的生理生化响应

以岷江干旱河谷区6种典型山地灌木[沙棘(Hippophae rhamnoides)、羊蹄甲(Bauhinia faberi)、白刺花(Sorphora davidii)、锦鸡儿(Caragana arborescens)、三颗针(Berberis sargentiana)、黄栌(Cotinus szechuanensis)]为试材,采用盆栽试验研究了土壤自然干旱胁迫对苗木叶片抗氧化保护酶活性、膜伤害程度以及渗透调节物质的影响,探讨植物应对土壤干旱逐渐加剧的生理生态适应机理。结果表明,植物不同抗氧化保护酶对干旱胁迫及随之而来的氧化胁迫的响应存在一定差异。各灌木的超氧化物歧化酶随着干旱胁迫的增强呈先上升后下降,过氧化物酶在整个胁迫期间表现为逐渐升高,过氧化氢酶的升高则主要发生在胁迫的中后期,表明不同胁迫时期对植物体起主导作用的保护酶不同,三者表现为相互协调的作用方式。随着干旱胁迫的增强,各灌木的丙二醛呈缓慢增加趋势,细胞的膜脂过氧化作用逐渐加强,植物开始遭受一定程度的毒害。沙棘和羊蹄甲叶片的质膜相对透性随胁迫的增强呈现先升后降最终回到初始水平的特点,表明植物可以通过干旱锻炼获得一定的抗旱能力。白刺花和黄栌叶片的质膜相对透性在胁迫的0—4 d保持不变,从8 d开始大幅上升并一直维持在较高水平,说明胁迫初期植物细胞膜的结构和功能还很完整,生理活动仍能正常进行,但从中期开始细胞膜遭受严重破坏。随着干旱胁迫的增强,各灌木叶片的脯氨酸总体均呈增加趋势,表明干旱胁迫下植物通过积累脯氨酸以提高细胞的渗透调节能力。主成分分析表明,6种灌木的抗旱能力由强到弱依次为:羊蹄甲、沙棘、锦鸡儿、黄栌、白刺花、三颗针。综合分析表明,干旱河谷区几种典型灌木可通过提高抗氧化酶活性并积累渗透调节物质对干旱胁迫进行积极的反馈,以减弱逆境胁迫下活性氧的危害,提高细胞的渗透调节能力,减轻细胞遭受的损伤。

不同处理对银沙槐种子休眠破除和幼苗生长的影响

对银沙槐种子破除休眠的适宜方法及其幼苗生长进行研究。结果表明:破口和沙磨处理休眠破除效果最好,但容易引起种子腐烂死亡;分别用65、80和95℃热水处理种子,以95℃1 min破除种子休眠效果最好,且幼苗长势好,65℃效果最差,80℃可破除部分种子休眠,除80℃外延长热水处理时间可导致死种子数增加,95℃则引致大部分种子死亡;液氮浸种处理效果均显著,其中以液氮处理10 min效果最好,但幼苗多为不正常苗而致死;硫酸处理以浸种120 min效果最好,但处理时间过长可导致死种子数增多,且造成少数幼苗根部腐蚀死亡。综上所述,打破银沙槐种子休眠的较优处理方法是硫酸120 min浸种处理和95℃1 min热水处理。     

The control of seed germination in Trollius ledebouri A model of seed dormancy

Treatment of Trollius ledebouri seeds with gibberellins A₄+A₇ promotes germination. The efficacy of the treatment is dependent upon the duration of imbibition in distilled water prior to GA₄₊₇ application. Presoaking increases both the final percentage germination attained and also its rate of achievement. No presoaking effect is exhibited by seeds induced to germinate by testa removal in the absence of GA₄₊₇. Active washing of Trollius seeds enhances the presoaking effect and the eluent from washed seeds is inhibitory to germination. The results support the hypothesis that the presoaking effect exhibited by Trollius is the result of the leaching of a germination inhibitor from the seeds which is antagonistic to GA₄₊₇. Additionally, treatment of Trollius seeds with the gibberellin-biosynthesis inhibitor (2-chloroethyl)-trimethylammonium chloride (CCC) prior to testa removal retards germination. The inhibitory effect of CCC on germination is overcome by GA₄₊₇. Although CCC inhibits embryo growth during the presoaking of intact seeds, it does not affect the increased sensitivity of presoaked seeds to GA₄₊₇. Therefore, although endogenous gibberellins may be involved in the germination process, they do not contribute to the presoaking phenomenon. The expansion of isolated endosperm tissue is not affected by CCC. However, the chemical markedly inhibits endosperm expansion in intact seeds and implicates the embryo as both the site of production of the germination inhibitor and of gibberellin. These results are discussed in relation to previous studies and a model is presented to account for the characteristics of germination in Trollius.Abbreviations GA gibberellin - CCC (2-chloroethyl)-trimethylammonium chloride     

Seed germination and dormancy in the medicinal woodland herbs Collinsonia canadensis L. (Lamiaceae) and Dioscorea villosa L. (Dioscoreaceae)

We used a double germination phenology or “move-along” experiment (sensu Baskin and Baskin, 2003) to characterize seed dormancy in two medicinal woodland herbs, Collinsonia canadensis L. (Lamiaceae) and Dioscorea villosa L. (Dioscoreaceae). Imbibed seeds of both species were moved through the following two sequences of simulated thermoperiods: (a) 30/15 °C→20/10 °C→15/6 °C→5 °C→15/6 °C→20/10 °C→30/15 °C, and (b) 5 °C→15/6 °C→20/10 °C→30/15 °C→20/10 °C→15/6 °C→5 °C. In each sequence, seeds of both species germinated to high rates (>85%) at cool temperatures (15/6 and 20/10 °C) only if seeds were previously exposed to cold temperatures (5 °C). Seeds kept at four control thermoperiods (5, 15/6, 20/10, 30/15 °C) for 30 d showed little or no germination. Seeds of both species, therefore, have physiological dormancy that is broken by 12 weeks of cold (5 °C) stratification. Morphological studies indicated that embryos of C. canadensis have “investing” embryos at maturity (morphological dormancy absent), whereas embryos of D. villosa are undeveloped at maturity (morphological dormancy present). Because warm temperatures are required for embryo growth and cold stratification breaks physiological dormancy, D. villosa seeds have non-deep simple morphophysiological dormancy (MPD). Neither species afterripened in a 6-month dry storage treatment. Cold stratification treatments of 4 and 8 weeks alleviated dormancy in both species but C. canadensis seeds germinated at slower speeds and lower rates compared to seeds given 12 weeks of cold stratification. In their natural habitat, both species disperse seeds in mid- to late autumn and germinate in the spring after cold winter temperatures alleviate endogenous dormancy.     

The control of seed germination in Trollius ledebouri: The breaking of dormancy

Seeds of Trollius ledebouri exhibit low germination when maintained on moistened filter paper. Dormancy can be overcome by the application of gibberellins A₄+A₇ or by testa removal. Germination is characterised by a change in the anatomy of the seed and by specific alterations in the protein complement of the endosperm tissue. These anatomical and biochemical changes are also exhibited by isolated endosperm tissue maintained in the absence of the embryo. The observations described are discussed in relation to the interaction between the endosperm and the embryo in the control of seed germination in T. ledebouri.Abbreviation GA gibberellin     

梁王山大花香水月季居群表型多样性分析

以云南省澄江市梁王山一带3个大花香水月季居群240个个体为研究对象,采用巢式方差分析、表型变异系数分析、Pearson相关性分析等方法,对大花香水月季的花、叶等16个表型性状进行分析.结果表明:大花香水月季居群内和居群间均存在丰富的表型多样性,表型分化系数在-1.51％～26.18％之间,在较近的距离内,居群内多样性远...     

Geographic variation in seed dormancy among populations of Echinochloa crus-galli

In 1991–1993, we investigated the incidence of seed dormancy in 25 local populations of barnyard grass, Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) P.Beauv., in the western Czech Republic. The percentage of germination after 4 months afterripening of dry seeds at 25°C varied between 0.0 and 83.6%. Although there were significant annual differences in the percentage of germination at some localities, typical proportions of dormant seeds persisted over 3 years at field sites where the seed bank was not disturbed. One-way ANOVA (using data from 14 cultivated or abandoned fields) revealed that 73.0% of variance in seed dormancy incidence could be attributed to the effect of locality (P<0.001). Incidence of dormancy was not correlated with mother plant stature (dry above-ground biomass, number of tillers, maximal stem height) nor seed mass. There was a significant correlation (r ²=0.403, P<0.005) between dormancy incidence at natural localities in 1991 and in F₁ offspring sown at experimental grounds at Praha-Ruzyn in 1992. The results indicate that heredity is important in maintaining local variation in seed dormancy, probably favoured by the self-pollinating reproduction of barnyard grass.     

雄性不育无籽刺梨花药发育过程中生理特性的初步研究

为探究无籽刺梨(Rosasterilis)雄性不育原因,采用1%I2-KI染色法观察花粉活性,并对无籽刺梨和正常可育刺梨(R.roburghii)花药不同发育时期的生理生化指标进行了研究。结果表明,无籽刺梨的败育花粉占95.5%,刺梨的正常花粉占99%。刺梨花药的可溶性蛋白质、可溶性糖和脯氨酸含量在各时期的总体变化趋势相似,可溶性淀粉含量呈上升趋势,而无籽刺梨花药的可溶性蛋白质、可溶性糖、淀粉和脯氨酸含量在各时期的变化无规律可循,且花粉成熟期这4种物质的含量均明显低于刺梨,即花粉成熟期缺少各营养物质的积累。在花药发育过程中,无籽刺梨的SOD活性均低于刺梨;MDA含量呈上升趋势,且上升幅度比刺梨大;MDA含量和POD活性均高于刺梨。因此,营养物质的匮乏和酶系统的紊乱可能是导致无籽刺梨雄性不育的原因。     

Evidence for the retention of genetic variation in Erodium seed dormancy by variable rainfall

Summary The periodic occurrence of summer/early autumn precipitation in the California annual grassland can result in the formation of early and late emerging cohorts of Erodium botrys and E. brachycarpum. The occurrence of early rainfall and the timing of such rainfall are highly variable from year to year. A series of field watering experiments in 1980–81 were used to simulate early emergence conditions that would result from significant rainfall (1 cm) occurring in mid-July, late August, and mid-September. Net reproduction was used to estimate fitness differentials between Erodium cohorts emerging in response to a watering treatment (early emerging cohorts) and Erodium cohorts emerging with the onset of winter rains in mid-October (late emerging cohorts). Survival was lower and gross reproduction was higher among early emerging cohorts than late emerging cohorts. For both species, net reproduction of the early cohort was lower than that of the late cohort under the July watering treatment and higher than that of the late cohort under the August watering treatment.Early cohorts, formed in response to rainfall in mid-September, 1982, were also compared demographically to later cohorts emerging in October. Compared to late cohorts, net reproduction, gross reproduction and survival were higher for the early cohorts.Common garden experiments indicate that differences in the duration of seed dormancy between the progenies of early and late emerging plants reflect a significant genetic component. Progency produced by early cohorts of E. brachycarpum from all three watering treatments possessed more extended seed dormancy than progeny of late cohorts. In E. botrys, progeny from early cohorts emerging in response to the July watering treatment were also more dormant than late progeny. In contrast, early cohorts of E. botrys emerging in response to the September watering treatment produced seed less dormant than seed produced by late cohorts. When combined with demographic data, indicating that fitness differentials between early and late cohorts varied with changes in the date of early emergence, genetic results suggest that year to year variation in early rainfall may act to retain genetic variation in the duration of seed dormancy.
