This study examined the effects of season-long exposure of Chinese pine (Pinus tabulaeformis) to elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) and/or ozone (O3) on indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) content, activities of IAA oxidase (IAAO) and peroxidase (POD) in needles. Trees grown in
open-top chambers (OTC) were exposed to control (ambient O3, 55 nmol mol−1 + ambient CO2, 350 μmol mol−1, CK), elevated CO2 (ambient O3 + high CO2, 700 μmol mol−1, EC) and elevated O3 (high O3, 80 ± 8 nmol mol−1 + ambient CO2, EO) OTCs from 1 June to 30 September. Plants grown in elevated CO2 OTC had a growth increase of axial shoot and needle length, compared to control, by 20% and 10% respectively, while the growth
in elevated O3 OTC was 43% and 7% less respectively, than control. An increase in IAA content and POD activity and decrease in IAAO activity
were observed in trees exposed to elevated CO2 concentration compared with control. Elevated O3 decreased IAA content and had no significant effect on IAAO activity, but significantly increased POD activity. When trees
pre-exposed to elevated CO2 were transferred to elevated O3 (EC–EO) or trees pre-exposed to elevated O3 were transferred to elevated CO2 (EO–EC), IAA content was lower while IAAO activity was higher than that transferred to CK (EC–CK or EO–CK), the change in
IAA content was also related to IAAO activity. The results indicated that IAAO and POD activities in Chinese pine needles
may be affected by the changes in the atmospheric environment, resulting in the change of IAA metabolism which in turn may
cause changes in Chinese pine’s growth.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term effects of elevated CO2 concentration (doubling of ambient CO2 concentration) and temperature (2–6°C elevation) on the concentration and content of secondary compounds in the needles of
Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) saplings grown in closed-top environmental chambers. The chamber treatments included (1) ambient temperature and CO2, (2) ambient temperature and elevated CO2, (3) elevated temperature and ambient CO2, and (4) elevated temperature and elevated CO2. The needle sampling and analyses of monoterpenes, HPLC-phenolics and condensed tannins in current- and 1-year-old needles
were made in two consecutive years. The results showed that the effects of elevation of CO2 and temperature were greatest on the monoterpene concentration in the needles while the concentration of HPLC-phenolics remained
almost unaffected by the changed growing conditions. Most of the observed decrease in monoterpene concentration was caused
by the CO2 enrichment while the effect of elevated temperature alone was not as significant. The accumulation of condensed tannins tended
to increase due to the elevation of CO2 alone compensating the reduced carbon allocation to monoterpenes. Overall, the responses of the concentrations of secondary
compounds to the elevation of CO2 and temperature are variable and depend strongly on the properties and characteristics of each compound as well as on the
interrelation between the production of these compounds and the primary production of trees. 相似文献

We examined the extent to which carbon investment into secondary compounds in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) is changed by the interactive effect of elevated CO2 and N availability and whether differences among treatments are the result of size-dependent changes. Seedlings were grown
for 138 days at two CO2 partial pressures (35 and 70 Pa CO2) and four N solution concentrations (0.5, 1.5, 3.5, and 6.5 mmol l−1 NO3NH4) and concentrations of total phenolics and condensed tannins were determined four times during plant development in primary
and fascicular needles, stems and lateral and tap roots. Concentrations of total phenolics in lateral roots and condensed
tannins in tap roots were relatively high regardless of treatment. In the smallest seedlings secondary compound concentrations
were relatively high and decreased in the initial growth phase. Thereafter condensed tannins accumulated strongly during plant
maturation in all plant parts except in lateral roots, where concentrations did not change. Concentrations of total phenolics
continued to decrease in lateral roots while they remained constant in all other plant parts. At the final harvest plants
grown at elevated CO2 or low N availability showed increased concentrations of condensed tannins in aboveground parts. The CO2 effect, however, disappeared when size differences were adjusted for, indicating that CO2 only indirectly affected concentrations of condensed tannins through accelerating growth. Concentrations of total phenolics
increased directly in response to low N availability and elevated CO2 in primary and fascicular needles and in lateral roots, which is consistent with predictions of the carbon-nutrient balance
(CNB) hypothesis. The CNB hypothesis is also supported by the strong positive correlations between soluble sugar and total
phenolics and between starch and condensed tannins. The results suggest that predictions of the CNB hypothesis could be improved
if developmentally induced changes of secondary compounds were included.

Opposing effects of elevated CO2 and N deposition on Lymantria monacha larvae feeding on spruce trees 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The effects of elevated atmospheric CO2 and increased wet N deposition on leaf quality and insect herbivory were evaluated in nine model ecosystems composed of 7-year-old
spruce trees (Picea abies) and three understorey species established on natural forest soil. Each model ecosystem was grown in a simulated montane
climate, and was exposed to one of three CO2 concentrations (280, 420, and 560 μl l−1), and to one of three levels of N deposition (0, 30, and 90 kg ha−1 year−1) for 3 years. In the 3rd year of the experiment second to third instars of the nun moth (Lymantria monacha) were allowed to feed directly on current-year needles of top canopy branches of each tree for 12 days. Specific leaf area
(SLA), water content, and N concentration decreased in needles exposed to elevated CO2, whereas the concentrations of starch, condensed tannins, and total phenolics increased. Increased N deposition had no significant
effect on SLA, and water content, but the concentrations of starch, condensed tannins, and total phenolics decreased, and
sugar and N concentrations increased. Despite higher relative consumption rates (RCRs) larvae consumed 33% less N per unit
larval biomass and per day at the two high CO2 treatments, compared to those feeding on 280 μl l−1-needles, but they maintained similar N accumulation rates due to increased N utilization efficiencies (NUE). However, over
the 12-day experimental period larvae gained less N overall and reached a 35% lower biomass in the two high-CO2 treatments compared to those at 280 μl l−1. The effects of increased N deposition on needle quality and insect performance were generally opposite to those of CO2 enrichment, but were lower in magnitude. We conclude that altered needle quality in response to elevated CO2 will impair the growth and development of L. monacha larvae. Increasing N deposition may mitigate these effects, which could lead to altered insect herbivore distributions depending
on regional patterns of N deposition.

Decomposition of secondary compounds from needle litter of Scots pine grown under elevated CO2 and O3 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and ozone (O3) concentrations have both been shown to affect plant tissue quality, which in turn could affect litter decomposition and carbon (C) and nutrient cycling. In order to evaluate effects of climate change on litter chemistry, needle litter was collected from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) saplings exposed to elevated CO2 or O3 concentration and their combination over three growing seasons in open‐top chambers. The decomposition of needle litter was followed for 19 months in a pine forest. During decomposition, needle samples for secondary compound analysis were collected and the mass loss of needles was followed. Main nutrients and total phenolics were analysed from litter in the beginning and at the end of the experiment. After 19‐month decomposition, the accumulated mass loss was about 34%; however, no significant differences were found in decomposition rates of needle litter between various treatments. Concentrations of total monoterpenes were about 4%, total resin acids 21% and total phenolics 14% of the initial concentrations in litter after 19‐month decomposition. In the beginning of litter decomposition, concentrations of individual monoterpenes –α‐pinene and β‐pinene – were significantly higher in needle litter grown under elevated CO2. However, concentrations of total monoterpenes during the whole decomposition period were not significantly affected by CO2 or O3 treatments. Concentrations of some individual and total resin acids were higher in needle litter grown under elevated CO2 or O3 than under ambient air. There were no significant differences in concentrations of total phenolics as well as nitrogen (N) and the main nutrient concentrations between treatments during decomposition. High concentrations of monoterpenes and resin acids in needles might slightly delay C recycling in forest soils. It is concluded that elevated CO2 and O3 concentrations do not have remarkable impacts on litter decomposition processes in Scots pine forests. 相似文献

Responses of Vegetation and Ecosystem CO2 Exchange to 9 Years of Nutrient Addition at Mer Bleue Bog 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) loading has the potential to affect plant community structure and function, and the carbon dioxide
(CO2) sink of peatlands. Our aim is to study how vegetation changes, induced by nutrient input, affect the CO2 exchange of a nutrient-limited bog. We conducted 9- and 4-year fertilization experiments at Mer Bleue bog, where we applied
N addition levels of 1.6, 3.2, and 6.4 g N m−2 a−1, upon a background deposition of about 0.8 g N m−2 a−1, with or without phosphorus and potassium (PK). Only the treatments 3.2 and 6.4 g N m−2 a−1 with PK significantly affected CO2 fluxes. These treatments shifted the Sphagnum moss and dwarf shrub community to taller dwarf shrub thickets without moss, and the CO2 responses depended on the phase of vegetation transition. Overall, compared to the large observed changes in the vegetation,
the changes in CO2 fluxes were small. Following Sphagnum loss after 5 years, maximum ecosystem photosynthesis (Pgmax) and net CO2 exchange (NEEmax) were lowered (−19 and −46%, respectively) in the highest NPK treatment. In the following years, while shrub height increased,
the vascular foliar biomass did not fully compensate for the loss of moss biomass; yet, by year 8 there were no significant
differences in Pgmax and NEEmax between the nutrient and the control treatments. At the same time, an increase (24–32%) in ecosystem respiration (ER) became
evident. Trends in the N-only experiment resembled those in the older NPK experiment by the fourth year. The increasing ER
with increasing vascular plant and decreasing Sphagnum moss biomass across the experimental plots suggest that high N deposition may lessen the CO2 sink of a bog. 相似文献

Since red pine (Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc.) often forms sparse forest floors where herbaceous plants do not grow well, allelopathy of red pine was investigated.
A growth inhibitory substance was isolated from an aqueous methanol extract of red pine needles and determined by spectral
data as abscisic acid-β-d-glucopyranosyl ester (ABA-GE). This substance inhibited root and shoot growth of cress and E. crus-galli seedlings at concentrations greater than 0.1 μM. The concentrations required for 50% growth inhibition on roots and shoots
of cress were 0.23 and 0.61 μM, respectively, and those of E. crus-galli were 1.1 and 2.8 μM, respectively. The activity of ABA-β-d-glucosidase, which liberates free ABA from ABA-GE, in cress and E. crus-galli seedlings was 13–29 nmol mg−1 protein min−1. Endogenous concentration of ABA-GE in the pine needles was 4.1–21.5 μmol kg−1 and the concentration in soil water of the pine forest was 2.5 μM. The effectiveness of ABA-GE on growth inhibition and the
occurrence of ABA-GE in pine needles and soil water suggest ABA-GE may play an important role in the allelopathy of red pine
resulting in the formation of sparse forest floors. 相似文献

The involvement of enzymic antioxidant system, superoxide dismutase, guaiacol peroxidase, ascorbate peroxidase in defense
reaction to environmental stress evoked by air and soil pollution, was seasonally studied on three populations of Scots pine
(Pinus sylvestris L.) growing on experimental areas close two industrial objects in Poland. The first of them (Luboón) is localised near a
phosphate fertiliser factory, the second (Głogów) near a copper foundry, and control stand is placed in Kórnik. Głogów is
the most polluted site, where in 1998 monthly mean daily concentrations was: SO2 - 17 μg·m−3, NOx- 12 μg·m−3 and dust containing heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Cd) - 29 μg·m−3. Trees in Luboń were influenced for many years by high concentration of SO2 and fluor compounds. Few years ago emissions were markedly reduced, but changes in the soil (low pH and high concentration
of aluminium ions) still influence the growth of trees. In needles of two populations: 3 (Russia) and 8 (Poland), from the
polluted sites Głogów and Luboń, activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and guaiacol peroxidase (PO) were significantly
higher compared to Kórnik. However, in one population (16 - Slovakia), such dependance was not evident. Activity of ascorbate
peroxidase (AP) measured in winter was also higher in needles from polluted sites. The results indicated that the sensitivity
of free radical scavenging system in Scots pine needles differs among populations. 相似文献

The effects of simulated N deposition on changes in mass, C, N and P of decomposing pine (Pinus massoniana) needles in a disturbed and a rehabilitated forest in tropical China were studied during a 24-month period. The objective
of the study was to test the hypothesis that litter decomposition in a disturbed forest is more sensitive to N deposition
rate than litter decomposition in a rehabilitated forest due to the relatively low nutrient status in the former as a result
of constant human disturbance (harvesting understory and litter). The litterbag method and N treatments (control, no N addition;
low-N, 5 g N m−2 year−1; medium-N, 10 g N m−2 year−1) were employed to evaluate decomposition. The results revealed that N addition increased (positive effect) mass loss rate
and C release rate but suppressed (negative effect) the release rate of N and P from decomposing needles in both disturbed
and rehabilitated forests. The enhanced needle decomposition rate by N addition was significantly related to the reduction
in the C/N ratio in decomposing needles. However, N availability is not the sole factor limiting needle decomposition in both
disturbed and rehabilitated forests. The positive effect was more sensitive to the N addition rate in the rehabilitated forest
than in the disturbed forest, however the reverse was true for the negative effect. These results suggest that nutrient status
could be one of the important factors in controlling the response of litter decomposition and its nutrient release to elevated
N deposition in reforested ecosystems in the study region. 相似文献

Six-year-old Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) seedlings were grown in open top chambers (OTCs) at ambient (AC) or elevated (ambient + 400 µmol mol–1; EC) CO2 concentration for three years (1996–1998). Chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence of current and one-year-old needles was measured in the field at two-weekly intervals in the period July–October 1998. In addition, Chl, carbon (C), and nitrogen (N) concentrations in both needle age classes were determined monthly during the same period. Chl fluorescence parameters were not significantly affected by EC, suggesting there was no response of the light reactions and the photochemical efficiency of photosystem 2. Chl concentrations were not significantly different but a reduced N concentration was observed in needles of EC treatment. Significant differences between needle age classes were observed for all parameters, but were most apparent under EC and toward the end of the growing season, possibly due to an acclimation process. As a result, significant interactions between CO2 treatment, needle age class, and season were found. This study emphasizes the importance of repeated measures including different leaf/needle age classes to assess the photosynthetic response of trees under EC. 相似文献

Current and previous year needles from three 16 years-old populations of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) trees were seasonally collected at the three experimental areas: Luboń- close to the phosphate fertiliser factory, Głogów
— close to the copper foundry and Kórnik — control site. Głogów is the most polluted site, where at 1998 monthly mean daily
concentrations of different pollutants were: SO2 - 17 μg·m−3, NOx - 12 μg·m−3 and dust containing heavy metals as Cu, Pb, Cd - 29 μg·m−3. Trees growing in Luboń were influenced for many years by high concentration of SO2 and fluor compounds. A few years ago emissions were markedly reduced, but low pH of soil and high concentration of aluminium
ions still influence the growth of trees. Seasonal changes of ascorbate and thiol content were observed in each needle class
and population, with the maximum in the winter and minimum in the summer. In needles from trees growing on polluted sites
higher level of ascorbic acid and thiols comparing to control site was observed. Significant differences appeared in each
population of Scots pine growing under higher pollution stress in the Głogów site. In needles from trees growing in Luboń
significant differences in ascorbic acid and thiols content were evidently less numerous. Needles from polluted sites in some
seasons contained significantly more malondialdehyde (MDA) and those was more frequent in Głogów than in Luboń. The results
indicated that in the Głogów site trees are more influenced by pollution stress than in Luboń and the defense reaction measured
as an increase of the antioxidant level is more evident. 相似文献

Carbon dioxide enrichment may increase the Al tolerance of trees by increasing root growth, root exudation and/or mycorrhizal
colonization. The effect of elevated CO2 on the response of mycorrhizal pitch pine (Pinus rigida Mill.) seedlings to Al was determined in two experiments with different levels of nutrients, 0.1- or 0.2-strength Clark solution.
During each experiment, seedlings inoculated with the ectomycorrhizal fungus Pisolithus tinctorius (Pers.) Coker & Couch were grown 13 weeks in sand irrigated with nutrient solution (pH 3.8) containing 0, 6.25, 12.5, or
25 mg/l Al (0, 232, 463, or 927 μM Al) in growth chambers fumigated with 350 (ambient) or 700 (elevated) μl/l CO2. At ambient CO2, in the absence of Al, mean total dry weights (DW) of seedlings at the high nutrient level were 164% higher than those at
the low level. Total DW at elevated CO2, in the absence of Al, was significantly greater than that in ambient CO2 at the low (+34%) and high (+16%) nutrient levels. Root and shoot DW at both nutrient levels decreased with increasing Al
concentrations with Al reducing root growth more than shoot growth. Although visible symptoms of Al toxicity in roots and
needles were reduced by CO2 enrichment, there were no significant CO2 × Al interactions for shoot or root DW. The percentage of seedling roots that became mycorrhizal was negatively related to
nutrient level and was greater at elevated than at ambient CO2 levels. Generally, elevated CO2 had little effect on concentration of mineral nutrients in roots and needles. Aluminum reduced concentrations of most nutrients
by inhibiting uptake.

The effect of elevated carbon dioxide concentration on the changes in the biomass, photosynthesis and nutrient composition
was investigated in two leafy vegetables. Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) and fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) plants were grown in open top chambers under either ambient (ACO2, 350 ± 50 μmol mol−1) or elevated (ECO2, 600 ± 50 μmol mol−1) CO2 concentration and analyzed 40, 60 and 80 days after exposure. The plants grown in ECO2 had higher net photosynthetic rate and lower stomatal conductance when compared with the plants grown in ACO2. ECO2 also changed the nutrient composition: a lower N, Mg and Fe contents and higher C and Ca contents were observed in the leaves
of plants exposed to ECO2 than in those grown at ACO2. 相似文献

CO2 and N-fertilization effects on fine-root length, production, and mortality: a 4-year ponderosa pine study 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We conducted a 4-year study of juvenile Pinus ponderosa fine root (≤2 mm) responses to atmospheric CO2 and N-fertilization. Seedlings were grown in open-top chambers at three CO2 levels (ambient, ambient+175 μmol/mol, ambient+350 μmol/mol) and three N-fertilization levels (0, 10, 20 g m−2 year−1). Length and width of individual roots were measured from minirhizotron video images bimonthly over 4 years starting when the seedlings were 1.5 years old. Neither CO2 nor N-fertilization treatments affected the seasonal patterns of root production or mortality. Yearly values of fine-root length standing crop (m m−2), production (m m−2 year−1), and mortality (m m−2 year−1) were consistently higher in elevated CO2 treatments throughout the study, except for mortality in the first year; however, the only statistically significant CO2 effects were in the fine-root length standing crop (m m−2) in the second and third years, and production and mortality (m m−2 year−1) in the third year. Higher mortality (m m−2 year−1) in elevated CO2 was due to greater standing crop rather than shorter life span, as fine roots lived longer in elevated CO2. No significant N effects were noted for annual cumulative production, cumulative mortality, or mean standing crop. N availability did not significantly affect responses of fine-root standing crop, production, or mortality to elevated CO2. Multi-year studies at all life stages of trees are important to characterize belowground responses to factors such as atmospheric CO2 and N-fertilization. This study showed the potential for juvenile ponderosa pine to increase fine-root C pools and C fluxes through root mortality in response to elevated CO2. 相似文献

Leaf chemistry alterations due to increasing atmospheric CO2 will reflect plant physiological changes and impact ecosystem function. Longleaf pine was grown for 20 months at two levels
of atmospheric CO2 (720 and 365 μmol mol–1), two levels of soil N (4 g m–2 year–1 and 40 g m–2 year–1), and two soil moisture levels (– 0.5 and – 1.5 MPa) in open top chambers. After 20 months of exposure, needles were collected
and ergastic substances including starch grains and polyphenols were assessed using light microscopy, and calcium oxalate
crystals were assessed using light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Polyphenol
content was also determined using the Folin-Denis assay and condensed tannins were estimated by precipitation with protein.
Evaluation of phenolic content histochemically was compared to results obtained using the Folin-Denis assay. Total leaf polyphenol
and condensed tannin content were increased by main effects of elevated CO2, low soil N and well-watered conditions. Elevated CO2 and low soil N decreased crystal deposition within needle phloem. Elevated CO2 had no effect on the percentage of cells within the mesophyll, endodermis, or transfusion tissue which contained visible
starch inclusions. With respect to starch accumulation in response to N stress, mesophyll > endodermis > transfusion tissue.
The opposite was true in the case of starch accumulation in response to main effects of water stress: mesophyll < endodermis
< transfusion tissue. These results indicate that N and water conditions significantly affect deposition of leaf ergastic
substances in longleaf pine, and that normal variability in leaf tissue quality resulting from gradients in soil resources
will be magnified under conditions of elevated CO2.

Batch experiments were conducted to evaluate the biodegradation rates of limonene, α-pinene, γ-terpinene, terpinolene and
α-terpineol at 23 °C under aerobic conditions. Biodegradation was demonstrated by the depletion of monoterpene mass, CO2 production and a corresponding increase in biomass. Monoterpene degradation in liquid cultures devoid of soil followed Monod
kinetics. The maximum specific growth rate (μmax) was 0.02 h−1 and 0.06 h−1 and the half-velocity constant (K
s ) varied from 32 mg/l to 3 mg/l for the limonene and α-terpineol respectively. The recovery of monoterpenes by solvent extraction
from autoclaved and azide-amended soil-slurry samples decreased over time and ranged from 69% to 73% for 120 h of incubation
period. Although a significant fraction of monoterpene hydrocarbon could not be extracted, mineralization of these compounds
in the soil-slurry systems took place, as shown by CO2 production. The soil-normalized degradation rates for the hydrocarbon monoterpenes ranged from 0.6 μg g−1 h−1 to 2.1 μg g−1 h−1. A kinetic model – which combined monoterpene biodegradation in the liquid phase and net desorption – was developed and applied
to data obtained from soil-slurry assays.

Chaetoceros muelleri (Lemn.) was cultured with nitrite (NO2−) or nitrate (NO3−) as the sole nitrogen source and aerated with air or with CO2-enriched air. Cells of C. muelleri excreted into the medium nitrite produced by reduction of nitrate when grown with 100 μM NaNO3 as nitrogen source. Accordingly, NO2− concentration reached 10.4 μM after 95 h at the low CO2 condition (aerated with air); while the maximum NO2− concentration was only around 2.0 μM at the high CO2 condition (aerated with 5% CO2 in air), furthermore, after 30 h it decreased to no more than 1.0 μM. NO2− was almost assimilated in 80 h when C. muelleri was cultured at the high CO2 condition with 100 μM NaNO2 as sole nitrogen source. At the high CO2 condition, after 3 h the activity of nitrite reductase was as much as 50% higher than that at the low CO2 condition. It was indicated that enriched CO2 concentration could inhibit nitrite excretion and enhance nitrite assimilation by cells. Therefore, aeration with enriched
CO2 might be an effective way to control nitrite content in aquaculture systems. 相似文献

Summary The proliferation and survival of avocado nodal cultures of juvenile origin were affected by the form and concentration of
nitrogen. Optimum growth was achieved on modified Murashige and Skoog medium containing 67% KNO3 and 33% NH4NO3 with total N of 40 mM supplemented with 100 mg l−1
myo-inositol, 1 mg l−1 thiamine HCl, 30 g l−1 sucrose, and 4.44 μM BA with a 16-h photoperiod (120–150 μmol m−2 s−1). Proliferating shoots and plantlets were photosynthetically active. Better shoot growth and accumulation of higher biomass
occurred in a CO2-enriched environment than under ambient CO2 conditions. CO2 assimilation efficiency, however, was higher under the latter conditions than in a CO2-enhanced environment, e.g., 31±7 and 17±2 μmol CO2 m−2 s−1, respectively. The net CO2 assimilation rates of in vitro grown plantlets were comparable to those of seedlings ex vitro. 相似文献

Competition for nitrogen between Pinus sylvestris and ectomycorrhizal fungi generates potential for negative feedback under elevated CO2 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We investigated fungal species-specific responses of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) seedlings on growth and nutrient acquisition together with mycelial development under ambient and elevated CO2. Each seedling was associated with one of the following ECM species: Hebeloma cylindrosporum, Laccaria bicolor, Suillus bovinus, S. luteus, Piloderma croceum, Paxillus involutus, Boletus badius, or non-mycorrhizal, under ambient, and elevated CO2 (350 or 700 μl l−1 CO2); each treatment contained six replicates. The trial lasted 156 days. During the final 28 days, the seedlings were labeled
with 14CO2. We measured hyphal length, plant biomass, 14C allocation, and plant nitrogen and phosphorus concentration. Almost all parameters were significantly affected by fungal
species and/or CO2. There were very few significant interactions. Elevated CO2 decreased shoot-to-root ratio, most strongly so in species with the largest extraradical mycelium. Under elevated CO2, ECM root growth increased significantly more than hyphal growth. Extraradical hyphal length was significantly negatively
correlated with shoot biomass, shoot N content, and total plant N uptake. Root dry weight was significantly negatively correlated
with root N and P concentration. Fungal sink strength for N strongly affected plant growth through N immobilization. Mycorrhizal
fungal-induced progressive nitrogen limitation (PNL) has the potential to generate negative feedback with plant growth under
elevated CO2.

Embryos of the freshwater common pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis develop to hatch within 10 days under control conditions (22°C, Miami-Dade tap water) and this development is impaired by
removal of ambient calcium. In contrast, embryos did not exhibit dependence upon an ambient HCO3

2− source, developing and hatching in HCO3

2−-free water at rates comparable to controls. Post-metamorphic, shell-laying embryos exhibited a significant saturation-type
calcium uptake as a function of increasing ambient calcium concentration. However, changes in ambient bicarbonate concentration
did not influence calcium or apparent titratable alkalinity uptake. There was a distinct shift from no significant flux in
pre-metamorphic embryos to net uptake of calcium in post-metamorphic stages as indicated by an increased uptake from the micro-environment
surrounding the egg mass and increased net uptake in 24-h, whole egg mass flux measurements. Furthermore, HCO3
−/CO3
2− acquisition as measured by titratable alkalinity flux is at least partially attributable to an endogenous carbonate source
that is associated with acid extrusion. Thus, calcium requirements for embryonic shell formation are met via uptake but HCO3
