Tree regeneration on rotten wood and on soil in old-growth stand 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Forest regeneration on soil and on decaying wood was studied in natural mixed stand of Facus sylvatica L., Abies alba Mill. and Picea abies Karst. in Babia Góra National Park, Western Carpathians.Downed wood, divided into five decay classes covered around 6% of the forest floor. Among seedlings, Fagus and Abies codominated, while Picea was less numerous. The average seedling density on the soil with herb layer (240 ind./100 m2) was higher than on the logs, even on the strongly decayed ones (177 ind./100 m2). However, the density of Abies and Picea seedlings was higher on the rotten wood than on soil. Seedling survival of all species was better on the logs, especially in conifers. Because of the total dominance of Fagus among saplings, the presence of Abies and Picea in the next generation of canopy trees can strongly depend upon their regeneration on decaying wood. 相似文献

Wood-inhabiting fungi may affect soil fungal communities directly underneath decaying wood via their exploratory hyphae. In addition, differences in wood leachates between decaying tree species may influence soil fungal communities. We determined the composition of fungi in 4-yr old decaying logs of Larix kaempferi and Quercus rubra as well as in soil directly underneath and next to logs. Fungal community composition in soil covered by logs was different from that in wood and uncovered soil and was clearly influenced by the tree species. Soil fungal species richness under logs was lower than in uncovered soil but higher than in decaying wood. The amount of exploratory hyphae of log-inhabiting fungi was only high close to decaying logs. In conclusion, there is a small but significant effect of decaying coniferous and broadleaf logs on soil fungal communities directly underneath logs, likely affected by differences in wood chemistry and fungal preference between tree species. 相似文献

Decaying wood provides an important habitat for animals and forms a seed bed for many shade-intolerant, small-seeded plants,
particularly Nothofagus. Using morphotyping and rDNA sequence analysis, we compared the ectomycorrhizal fungal community of isolated N. cunninghamii seedlings regenerating in decayed wood against that of mature tree roots in the forest floor soil. The /cortinarius, /russula-lactarius,
and /laccaria were the most species-rich and abundant lineages in forest floor soil in Australian sites at Yarra, Victoria
and Warra, Tasmania. On root tips of seedlings in dead wood, a subset of the forest floor taxa were prevalent among them species
of /laccaria, /tomentella-thelephora, and /descolea, but other forest floor dominants were rare. Statistical analyses suggested
that the fungal community differs between forest floor soil and dead wood at the level of both species and phylogenetic lineage.
The fungal species colonizing isolated seedlings on decayed wood in austral forests were taxonomically dissimilar to the species
dominating in similar habitats in Europe. We conclude that formation of a resupinate fruit body type on the underside of decayed
wood is not necessarily related to preferential root colonization in decayed wood. Rather, biogeographic factors as well as
differential dispersal and competitive abilities of fungal taxa are likely to play a key role in structuring the ectomycorrhizal
fungal community on isolated seedlings in decaying wood. 相似文献

Abstract. Since many wood‐living forest species are influenced by the dynamics of coarse woody debris (CWD), information about the spatial pattern of CWD under natural conditions is essential to understand species distributions. In this study we examined the spatial pattern of downed logs and wood‐decaying fungi in an old‐growth boreal Picea abies forest in northwestern Sweden that is governed by gap‐phase dynamics. The spatial pattern of wood‐decaying fungi was studied to draw conclusions about species dispersal abilities. A total of 684 logs with a diameter > 10 cm were mapped and analysed with Ripley's K‐function. The distribution of all logs taken together displayed a significant aggregated pattern up to 45 m. The different decay stages also deviated from random expectations. Fairly fresh logs and logs in the middle decay stage were clumped up to about 25 and 35 m respectively, and late decayed logs aggregated up to 95 m. Logs with diameters from 10–29 cm were aggregated up to 25 m, whereas logs ≥30 cm diameter were randomly distributed. The result suggests that gap‐dynamics do have an impact on the spatial pattern of the CWD, creating fine‐scale clumping. The random distribution of large logs may result from the slightly regular spacing of large living trees. The spatial patterns of 16 species (n > 20) of wood‐decaying fungi were analysed with Ripley's K‐function. Three patterns were aggregated, for Gloeophyllum sepiarium, Coniophora olivacea and Vesiculomyces citrinus. These results indicate that the distribution of most species at the stand level is generally not influenced by dispersal limitations. 相似文献

The importance of litter to nutrient and organic matter storage and the possible influence of species selection on soil fertility
in ten stands each consisting of a separate tree species were examined in this study. The plantations had been grown under
similar conditions in an arboretum in the Luquillo Experimental Forest, Puerto Rico. The species involved were: Anthocephalus chinensis, Eucalyptus × patentinervis, E. saligna, Hernandia sonora, Hibiscus elatus, Khaya nyasica, Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis, P. elliottii var. densa, Swietenia macrophylla, and Terminalia ivorensis. After 26 yr, litter mass ranged from 5 mg ha-1 in the H. sonora stand to 27.2 Mg ha-1 in the P. caribaea stand. Nutrients in the litter (N, P, K, Ca, and Mg) also varied widely, but stands were ranked in different order when ranked
by nutrients in the litter than then ranked according to accumulation of mass. Only E. saligna and A. chinensis stands were ranked similarly in accumulation of both nutrients and mass, and the stand of H. elatus was ranked higher with respect to nutrient accumulation than to accumulation of mass. The nutrient concentration in standing
leaf litter generally increased in the order of recently fallen <old intact< fragmented. Nutrient concentration of standing
leaf litter appears to increase with age and depth in the litter layer. The amount of nutrients stored in the litter compartment
of these plantations was in the same order of magnitude as the quantity of available nutrients in the top 10-cm of mineral
soil. Total litter mass was negatively correlated with the mass-weighted concentration of N, K, and Mg. The same relationship
was found for Ca in the leaf litter and N in the fine wood litter compartments. In some stands (notably P. caribaea, P. elliottii, and E. saligna), leaf litter derived from species other than the species planted in that particular stand had higher nutrient concentration
than leaf litter from the planted species. Soils of the 10 stands were classified in the same soil series and had similar
texture (clay soils). However, significantly different chemical characteristics were found. Results obtained by analysis of
covariance and by limiting comparisons to adjacent stands with similar soil texture, indicate that different species have
had different influences on the concentration of available nutrients in soil. 相似文献

In order to analyse the structure and regeneration patterns of the Juniperus excelsa Bieb. stands on the slopes of the Nestos valley, 40 sample plots were established and more than 120 J. excelsa trees and seedlings were cut and collected. The main results of this research indicate that stand structure, species mixture,
age structure and stand development patterns were strongly determined by the interaction of anthropogenic disturbances such
as grazing and illegal cuttings, and the facilitation of adult J. excelsa trees in the establishment of the J. excelsa seedlings. Their effect was influenced by site quality and J. excelsa together with other species ecology. Under present conditions, almost all J. excelsa seedlings, except for a small number of plants, are found under the facilitation of nurse plants that belong to the same
species. It seems that the layer of litter underneath the nurse plants combined with the protection of seedlings against grazing
play an important role in the establishment and growth of J. excelsa seedlings. 相似文献

The spatio-temporal patterns of soil fertility and soil solution chemistry in a multi-strata agroforestry system with perennial crops were analysed as indicators for the effects of crop species and management measures on soil conditions under permanent agriculture in central Amazonia. The study was carried out in a plantation with locally important tree crop species and a leguminous cover crop at two fertilization levels on a xanthic Ferralsol. Soil fertility to 2 m soil depth was evaluated 3.5 years after the establishment of the plantation, and soil solution chemistry at 10, 60 and 200 cm soil depth was monitored over 2 years. Several soil fertility characteristics exhibited spatial patterns within the multi-strata plots which reflected the differing properties of the plant species and their management, including the fertilizer input. Significant differences between species could be detected to 150 cm depth, and between fertilization treatments to 200 cm depth. Favourable effects on nutrient availability in the soil were found for annatto (Bixa orellana) (P, K) and cupuaçu (Theobroma grandiflorum) (Ca, Mg) in comparison with peach palm (Bactris gasipaes) and Brazil nut (Bertholletia excelsa). Nutrient concentrations of the soil solution showed pronounced fluctuations in the topsoil, corresponding to fertilizer applications. Large nutrient concentrations in the soil solution were accompanied by increased concentrations of aluminium and low pH values, caused by exchange reactions between fertilizer and sorbed acidity and reinforced by the acidifying effect of nitrification. The soil solution under the leguminous cover crop Pueraria phaseoloides had relatively large N concentrations during periods when those under the tree crops were small, and this could partly explain why no yield responses to N fertilization were observed at this site. 相似文献

Fungal communities within a naturally fallen bough of Japanese beech (Fagus crenata) were investigated with reference to chemical properties of decay columns. Five logs were cut out from the fallen bough, which ranged from 10.7 to 20.5 cm in diameter. Nine fungal species and one sterile fungus were isolated from decay columns that elongated along a longitudinal axis and were delimited by black zone lines and wood discoloration. Lampteromyces japonicus and Trichoderma spp. were isolated from all five logs. Lampteromyces japonicus and Antrodiella albocinnamomea occupied the largest volume in the logs. Lignin and carbohydrate contents, lignocellulose index (LCI), nitrogen content, and water content were different among decay columns colonized by different fungal species in each log. In L. japonicus, LCI of decay column was correlated to that of wood blocks decayed under pure culture condition by the fungi isolated from the decay columns. These results suggest that the small-scale variation in chemical properties within fallen logs of Japanese beech reflects the distribution and the decay ability of colonized fungi. 相似文献

Summary The Drosophila fauna of a deciduous flood plain forest rich in undergrowth near the river Isar, close to Munich, Germany, was surveyed in summer 1990. Decaying herbage baits (decay artificially induced) were set out to study the exploitation of that resource by Drosophila. Sixteen plant species belonging to several families dominant in the collecting area were tested. All attracted and produced drosophilid flies. Ten Drosophila species utilized decaying plant material as breeding sites; at least eight of the ten are polyphagous. Decaying stalks and leaves of Angelica sylvestris (Apiaceae) were examined in detail. In the case of the most frequent species of Drosophila attracted to A. sylvestris, the number of adults collected did not correlate with the number of flies emerging from the substrate. This was particularly true of D. limbata and D. phalerata. When oviposition and larval development of D. limbata and D. phalerata on A. sylvestris was tested in the laboratory, the number of offspring per female was the same in both species. The difference between these two species of the quinaria group in the exploitation of A. sylvestris in the field is therefore not due to differential suitability of the substrate. 相似文献

Mora excelsa and M. gonggrijpii are well segregated along a soil hydrological gradient. M. excelsa is positively associated with soil hydromorphic characteristics such as gley, mottling and groundwater within 1.20 m, whereas M. gonggrijpii is negatively associated with these characteristics. Growth and mortality of artificially installed seedlings were studied in both species in occasionally flooded forest and dryer uphill forest. In a moderate year (1992, no pronounced flooding, no drought), there was no difference between the two species in growth or mortality in the two forest types. M. gonggrijpii was larger in both forest types. Flooding tolerance of seeds and seedlings were studied under controlled water regimes. Seeds of M. gonggrijpii appeared to be very intolerant to flooding, since germination in this species dropped to 50% after only 11 days of flooding. Seeds of M. excelsa floated and 80% of the seeds were viable after as much as 50 days of flooding. Artificially submerged seeds of the latter species had an intermediate survival response. Flooding in seedlings resulted in cessation of growth in both species. Mortality was nil in most treatments, but all M. gonggrijpii individuals died after a treatment of 8 weeks of continuous flooding. Drought tolerance of seedlings of M. excelsa and M. gonggrijpii was studied in a drying-out experiment. Seedlings of both species of approximately equal size differed widely in a number of characteristics: total leaf area, leaf dry weight, leaf thickness, leaf size and leaf area ratio (LAR) were all larger in M. gonggrijpii, while stomatal density and specific leaf area (SLA) were smaller in this species. Seedlings did not differ in stem hydraulic conductivity. M. excelsa showed lower osmotic potential at full hydration. Turgor potential loss points were not nearly approached in the forest during the middle of the dry season in either species. M. gonggrijpii had much lower stomatal conductance than M. excelsa, due to lower stomatal density. Boundary layer conductance was of the same magnitude as stomatal conductance, especially in the morning. In a drying-out experiment, total plant transpiration was higher in M. gonggrijpii, as the lower conductance observed in this species was compensated for by its larger leaf area. M. gonggrijpii was able to extract water from dryer soils than M. excelsa and may be able to utilize its higher leaf water content under moderate drought in the forest understorey. 相似文献

Carbon isotopic composition of soils subjected to C3–C4 vegetation change can be used to estimate C turnover in bulk soil and in soil organic matter (SOM) pools with fast and intermediate
turnover rates. We hypothesized that the biological availability of SOM pools is inversely proportional to their thermal stability,
so that thermogravimetry can be used to separate SOM pools with contrasting turnover rates. Soil samples from a field plot
cultivated for 10.5 years with the perennial C4 plant Miscanthus×gigantheus were analyzed by thermogravimetry coupled with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Three SOM fractions were distinguished
according to the differential weight losses and exothermic or endothermic reactions measured by DSC. The δ13C and δ15N values of these three fractions obtained by gradual soil heating were measured by IRMS. The weight losses up to 190 °C mainly
reflected water evaporation because no significant C and N losses were detected and δ13C and δ15N values of the residual SOM remained unchanged. The δ13C values (−16.4‰) of SOM fraction decomposed between 190 and 390 °C (containing 79% of total soil C) were slightly closer
to that of the Miscanthus plant tissues (δ13C = −11.8‰) compared to the δ13C values (−16.8‰) of SOM fraction decomposed above 390 °C containing the residual 21% of SOM. Thus, the C turnover in the
thermally labile fraction was faster than that in thermally stable fractions, but the differences were not very strong. Therefore,
in this first study combining TG-DSC with isotopic analysis, we conclude that the thermal stability of SOM was not very strongly
related to biological availability of SOM fractions. In contrast to δ13C, the δ15N values strongly differed between SOM fractions, suggesting that N turnover in the soil was different from C turnover. More
detailed fractionation of SOM by thermal analysis with subsequent isotopic analysis may improve the resolution for δ13C. 相似文献

The identity of mycorrhizal fungi associated with the achlorophyllous orchid Epipogium roseum was investigated by DNA analysis. The fungi were isolated from each coiled hypha (peloton), and the ITS region of nuclear rDNA was sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis based on the neighbor-joining method showed that all the isolates clustered with fungi belonging to Psathyrella or Coprinus in Coprinaceae. Those fungi are known as saprobes, using dead organic materials for a nutritive source. Large colonies of this orchid were frequently found around tree stumps or fallen logs. In such colonies, these decaying wood materials would be used as a large and persistent carbon source for the growth of this orchid. This is the first report of Coprinaceae as an orchid mycorrhizal fungi. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to examine the chemical structure of the organic matter (SOM) of Oxisols soils in slash and
burn agriculture, in relation to its biological properties and soil fertility. The CP/MAS 13C technique was used to identify the main structural groups in litter and fine roots as SOM precursors; to identify the changes
on the nature of the SOM upon cultivation and the proportion of labile and stable components; and to identify the nature of
the organics present in water extracts (DOC).
Carbohydrates were the main structural components in litter whereas components such as carbonyl C, carboxyl C,O-alkyl C and
alkyl C were more common in SOM. Phenolic C and the degree of aromaticity were similar in litter and SOM. Cultivation resulted
in a small decrease in the relative proportion of carbohydrates in SOM, little change in the levels of O-alkyl C and carbonyl
C, but an increase in carboxyl C, phenolic C and aromaticity of the SOM. The level of alkyl C in soil was higher than the
level of O-alkyl C, indicating the importance of long-chain aliphatics along with lignins in the stabilization of the SOM
in Oxisols. The SOM of Mollisols from the Canadian Prairies differed from the Oxisol, with a generally stronger expression
of aromatic structures, particularly in a cultivated soil in relation to a native equivalent. Carbohydrate components were
the predominant structures in the DOC, indicating their importance in nutrient cycling and vertical translocations in the
Oxisol. 相似文献

A laboratory microcosm experiment was established to study whether the role of Cognettia sphagnetorum (Enchytraeidae) in affecting Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) seedling growth is influenced by wood ash-amendment, i.e., neutralisation of the raw humus soil. Coniferous forest soil, inoculated with soil microbes and nematodes, was either treated with wood ash or left as ash-free control. Wood ash (corresponding to an amount of 5000 kg ha–1) was either spread on the soil surface or mixed into the soil. Enchytraeid and pine seedling biomass, abundance of nematodes, and water leachable NH4
+-N and NO3
–-N were measured 26 and 51 weeks after initiation of the experiment and root length and N concentration of needles were measured 51 weeks after initiation of the experiment. Wood ash when mixed into the soil, reduced the biomass of C. sphagnetorum. Nematodes were unaffected by the treatments. In the ash-free soils C. sphagnetorum had little influence on pine growth, but it did decrease root length and root to shoot ratio. In the absence of enchytraeids wood ash decreased pine biomass production and root length. However, the presence of enchytraeids in the ash-treated soil compensated the ash-induced negative effects on the pine performance. Enchytraeids increased and wood ash decreased water leachable NH4
+-N in the presence but not in the absence of enchytraeids, while water leachable NO3
–-N was not affected by the treatments. It was concluded that C. sphagnetorum can be important in ensuring nutrient cycling and plant growth in situations when an ecosystem encounters disturbances. 相似文献

Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii and C. gattii were repeatedly isolated from decaying wood of trunk hollows in living trees growing in Jabalpur City in Central India. The
isolation of C.␣gattii has been reported from decayed wood inside trunk hollow of Tamarindus indica (15.6%), Mangifera indica (2.2%), Pithecolobium dulce (12.5%), Syzygium cumini (14%), and one from bark of S.␣cumini. C. n. var. grubii was isolated from decaying wood debris of T. indica (4.4%), M. indica (13.3%), Terminalia arjuna (25%), S. cumini (2%), Cassia fistula (4.5%), and two from bark of S. cumini. The two varieties never co-occurred in the same hollow. C. gattii and C. n. var. grubii isolates belonged to serotype B and serotype A respectively. The data strongly supported the colonization of the pathogen
in␣decaying wood hollow of all six-tree species. Evidence of this was found by repeated isolation up to 820 days. P. dulce is being reported for the first time as natural habitat of C. gattii and T.␣arjuna and C. fistula as natural habitat for C. n. var. grubii. M. indica is being reported for the second time as the natural habitat of both varieties (C. n. var. grubii and C. gattii). The population density of these pathogens from decaying wood debris of various tree species ranged between 0.5 × 103 cells/g and 6 × 105 cells/g. The seasonal variation has been seen in isolation of this yeast. Our result further reinforce the recently emerging
evidence that the natural habitat of C. n. var. grubii and C. gattii is more generalized. 相似文献

The relationship between myxomycete species and the decay stage of wood of Pinus densiflora coarse woody debris was investigated in warm temperate secondary forests of western Japan. The number of species and species
diversity of the myxomycete community reached the maximum on moderately decayed wood. The 25 dominant species recorded from
8 or more samples of the total 1530 samples were arranged in order of the succession index corresponding to the stage of decay.
Species on slightly decayed hard pine wood were characterized by Stemonitis splendens, Enerthenema papillatum, and Physarum viride, whereas species of Cribrariaceae were found on brittle decayed soft wood increasing abundance according to the decay stages.
Most of the species occurred where there was sufficient moisture preserved in the environment of the decaying wood, although
S. splendens specifically emerged in low-moisture environments. Because the myxomycete species had preference to different decay stages
of wood, it appears that they change sequentially during myxomycete community succession on dead pine wood according to the
progression of decay. 相似文献

Random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) and leaf volatile terpenoids were used to compare junipers from Abha, Saudi Arabia with J. excelsa from Greece and J. procera from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Both the RAPDs and terpenoids clearly identified the Abha juniper as J. procera. The migration and evolution of J. excelsa or pre-J. excelsa junipers southward from Asia Minor into Africa is discussed. A computer program, PCO3D, is now available for 3-D ordination of RAPDs data. In addition, this research supports the recognition of both J. excelsa and J. procera as separate species. 相似文献

With a new approach we assessed the relative contribution of stored and current carbon compounds to new shoot growth in alpine
treeline conifers. Within a free air CO2 enrichment experiment at the alpine treeline in Switzerland, 13C-depleted fossil CO2 was used to trace new carbon in the two tree species Larix decidua L. and Pinus uncinata Ramond over two subsequent years. The deciduous L. decidua was found to supply new shoot growth (structural woody part) by 46% from storage. Surprisingly, the evergreen P. uncinata, assumed to use current-year photosynthates, also utilized a considerable fraction of storage (42%) for new wood growth.
In contrast, the needles of P. uncinata were built up almost completely from current-year photosynthates. The isotopic composition of different wood carbon fractions
revealed a similar relative allocation of current and stored assimilates to various carbon fractions. Elevated CO2 influenced the composition of woody tissue in a species-specific way, e.g. the water soluble fraction decreased in pine in
2001 but increased in larch in 2002 compared to ambient CO2. Heavy defoliation applied as an additional treatment factor in the second year of the experiment decreased the lipophilic
fraction in current-year wood in both species compared to undefoliated trees. We conclude that storage may play an important
role for new shoot growth in these treeline conifers and that altered carbon availability (elevated CO2, defoliation) results in significant changes in the relative amount of mobile carbon fractions in woody tissue. In particular,
stored carbon seems to be of greater importance in the evergreen P. uncinata than has been previously thought. 相似文献

Allelopathy of filamentous green algae (FGA) has been less studied than that of macrophytes. Little Budworth Pool, Cheshire, UK is a small, shallow, clear-water lake with high TP concentrations, very high NO3-N concentrations, only moderate phytoplankton density, high FGA growth (mainly Spirogyra sp.) and no submerged plants. Experiments were carried out to test the possible allelopathic effects of Spirogyra on the phytoplankton of this lake and on a submerged plant Elodea nuttallii. Changes in phytoplankton growth, phytoplankton species dynamics and species composition were apparently not influenced by allelopathy of live or decaying Spirogyra. A shift from diatom (Cyclotella sp) – cryptomonad (Chroomonas acuta and Cryptomonas erosa) dominance to Chlorococcales (Micractinium pusillum, Monoraphidium contortum and Scenedesmus opoliensis) – Volvocales (Chlorogonium elongatum and Pandorina morum) dominance was recorded in both control and FGA treatments, suggesting an effect of nutrient enrichment. Nutrient concentrations and differences in competitiveness among phytoplankton species can also explain differences in their growth rates in Spirogyra filtrate. Spirogyra also did not influence apex number per plant, shoot length or growth rate of E. nuttallii. This FGA species probably cannot control phytoplankton or E. nuttallii growth in nutrient rich conditions through allelopathy. 相似文献
