盐胁迫对蓝蓟种子萌发及早期幼苗的影响

研究了不同浓度盐(NaCl)处理对蓝蓟种子发芽势、发芽率及幼苗生长的影响。结果表明:(1)不同盐胁迫处理对蓝蓟种子的萌发具有显著影响。随着盐处理浓度的增加,发芽率呈下降趋势,蓝蓟在无盐环境(蒸馏水)和低盐环境中(0.05 mol/L)长势最好、发芽率最高、发芽速度最快。(2)将不同盐溶液处理5 d的未萌发种子转移到蒸馏水后,蓝蓟种子的萌发能力均可恢复,原来较高盐浓度(0.3 mol/L～0.5 mol/L)下的种子在恢复后,其萌发恢复率均在75%以上,发芽率基本上随着原浓度的升高呈上升的趋势。研究表明,NaCl处理对蓟种子没有造成伤害,其抑制萌发是通过渗透效应而不是离子毒害。

Effect of Salt Stress on Seed Germination and EmbryoGrowth of Spartina alterniflora (Gramineae)

In this paper , the effect of NaCl concentration ( 1× 104 - 6× 104 mg/L) on the seed germination of smooth cordgrass ( Spartina alterniflora) was investigated using 1/2 Hoagland as the basic culture solution. The results indicated that the coleoptile and embryonal axis grew before the radicle and plumule in the stage of germination . Salinity level had no influence on the seed germination percentage when the salt concentration didn′t exceed 3×104 mg/L. The optimal salinity level for seed germination and embryo growth was 1×104 mg/L . The inhibit effect of salt concentration on the growth of embryo′s different part was different, and the length of radicle and plumule decreased significantly with the increase of salt concentration. However , the lesser inhibition on the embryonal axis and coleoptile was observed under the higher salt concentration, and thus the seedlings out of soil were ensured and the species was quickly adapted to the environment of inter- tidal zone .     

Survivorship and Spatial Development of Spartina alterniflora Loisel. (Gramineae) Seedlings in a New England Salt Marsh

Patterns of survival and spatial arrangement of tillers of Spartinaalterniflora were examined in natural and in artificially producedbare areas, and in pure stands of adult S. alterniflora in aNew England salt marsh. Seedling growth and survival were highin naturally occurring bare patches and in artificial patches,whether created by continual clipping of adult plants to groundlevel throughout the growing season or by providing bare substrateafter removal of adult plants. Seedling growth and survivorshipincreased with increasing size of bare area. S. alternifloraseedlings were also common in areas dominated by adult plants,but no seedlings survived a whole first growing season underthe mature canopy, probably because of competition from adultplants. In large bare areas, S. alterniflora seedlings grew non-directionally,reaching heights of 0.5 m, and producing as many as 36 tillersin one growing season. Examination of leaf area ratios suggestedthat the production of tillers increased photosynthetic capacityin seedlings with several tillers in contrast to seedlings withouttillers. Thus, seedlings can apparently tiller and colonizefree space radially without a loss of photosynthetic capacity. These results suggest that while seedling success is generallylimited by adult plants in monocultures of S. alterniflora,in disturbed spaces seedling success is high and results ina rapid non-directional proliferation of sexually generatedclones that ultimately preclude the successful invasion of futureseedlings.

盐胁迫对4种短命植物种子萌发及植株生长的影响

以新疆北部4种十字花科短命植物为材料,研究不同浓度NaCl胁迫下其种子萌发及植株生长特性,以明确它们的耐盐性强弱。结果显示:(1)随着NaCl浓度的增加,4种植物种子萌发率、萌发指数和相对萌发率均不同程度下降,而相对盐害率则逐渐升高,并以绵果荠的耐盐性最好,其在300 mmol.L-1NaCl胁迫下仍有22.22%的萌发率。(2)4种植物的生长在50~150 mmol.L-1NaCl胁迫下没有受到明显抑制,在200 mmol.L-1浓度下受不同程度的抑制,而在300 mmol.L-1NaCl胁迫下抑制作用更严重,其中绵果荠在各浓度处理下长势均最好,能够在300 mmol.L-1NaCl胁迫下存活10 d。(3)在盐胁迫条件下,4种植物细胞质膜透性不同程度增加,而叶片相对含水量和光合色素含量均不同程度降低,并以绵果荠各项指标的变化幅度最小。可见,4种新疆短命植物种子萌发和植株生长均受到盐胁迫的伤害,但它们的耐盐阈值明显不同,并以绵果荠的耐盐性最强。     

SA浸种对盐胁迫下小麦种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响

以小麦盐敏感品种鲁麦15为材料,研究了外源水杨酸(salicylic acid,SA)浸种对100 mmol/L NaCl胁迫下小麦种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响。研究结果表明:盐胁迫下,无论经SA浸种还是未经SA浸种,小麦幼苗的生长均受到明显抑制,干、鲜重显著下降;0.1 mmol/L、0.2 mmol/L和0.3 mmol/L SA溶液浸种均能显著缓解NaCl胁迫对小麦幼苗生长的抑制,其中以0.2 mmol/L SA溶液浸种预处理效果最好。实验中,0.2 mmol/L SA浸种可显著提高盐胁迫下小麦种子β-淀粉酶的活性和吸胀速率。此外,与未经SA浸种的盐胁迫小麦幼苗相比,0.2 mmol/L SA浸种的盐胁迫小麦幼苗整株的干、鲜重显著增加,幼苗体内Na~+含量降低,K~+含量和K~+/Na~+比值显著提高;同时,小麦幼苗叶片中超氧化物歧化酶(superoxide dismutase,SOD)、过氧化氢酶(catalase,CAT)、过氧化物酶(peroxidase,POD)活性升高,而丙二醛(MDA)含量则显著降低。由此可以得出,SA浸种能有效提高盐胁迫下小麦幼苗体内K~+/Na~+比值,提高SOD、CAT和POD的活性,减轻膜脂过氧化程度,以缓解盐胁迫对小麦幼苗生长的抑制作用,从而提高耐盐性。     

Effect of the Spartina alterniflora Root-Rhizome System on Salt Marsh Soil Denitrifying Bacteria

Nitrous oxide (N₂O) reductase activity was used as an index of the denitrification potential in salt marsh soils. In a short Spartina alterniflora marsh, the seasonal distribution of N₂O reductase activity indicated a causal relationship between S. alterniflora root-rhizome production and the denitrification potential of the soil system. The relationship was not discerned in samples from a tall S. alterniflora marsh. To further examine the in situ plant-denitrifier interaction in the short S. alterniflora marsh, plots with and without living S. alterniflora were established and analyzed for N₂O reductase activity 5 and 18 months later. In the plots without living Spartina there was a significant reduction in the soil denitrification potential after 18 months, indicating that in the SS marsh the denitrifiers are tightly coupled to the seasonal production of below-ground Spartina macroorganic matter. In plots with intact Spartina, the soil denitrification potential was not altered by NH₄NO₃ or glucose enrichment. However, in plots without living Spartina, there were significant changes in soil N₂O reductase activity, thus indicating that the plants can serve as a “buffer” against this form of pulse perturbation.     

Translocation,remineralization, and turnover of nitrogen in the roots and rhizomes of Spartina alterniflora (Gramineae)

We used ¹⁵N to quantify rates of N translocation from aerial to belowground tissues, foliar leaching, and turnover and production of root and rhizome biomass in the plant-sediment system of short Spartina alterniflora areas of Great Sippewissett Marsh, Massachusetts. Decay of belowground tissues in litterbag incubations at 1- and 10-cm depths resulted in 80% remineralization of the original plant (¹⁵N-labeled) N and 20% burial after 3 years. Translocation of ¹⁵N from plant shoots in hydrologically controlled laboratory lysimeters maintained under field conditions was 38% of the aboveground pool while leaching of N was 10% from June to October. Most of the translocated N was not retranslocated to new aboveground growth in December but appeared to be either remineralized or buried in the sediment. Injection of ¹⁵N into field stands of grass showed initially high incorporation into plants followed by a continuous decline over the next 7 years yielding a gross tumover time of 1.5–1.6yr. Correcting the gross N turnover for recycling of label via translocation and uptake of remineralized label during this period, a net root and rhizome turnover time of 1.0–1.1 yr was obtained. Combining the turnover time with independent estimates of seasonal belowground biomass yielded an estimate of belowground production of 929–1,022 g C m⁻² yr⁻¹, similar to measurements by traditional biomass harvest, CO² based budgets and models for comparable areas of this marsh. Integration of the production and nitrogen balance estimates for short Spartina marsh yielded translocation, 1.4 g N m⁻² yr⁻¹, leaching, 0.4 g N m⁻² yr⁻¹, remineralization, 14.9–16.3 g N m⁻² yr⁻¹, and burial, 3.7–4.1 g N m⁻² yr⁻¹.

Evolution in Spartina (Gramineae) IV. The cytology of S. alterniflora Loisel. in North America

A cytological survey of Spartina alterniflora Loisel. populations in Canada and north-eastern U.S.A. establishes the widespread and seemingly exclusive occurrence of the 2 n = 62 chromosome number in that region. The data indicate that the introduced and relict populations of S. alterniflora in Southampton Water, Britain (whence arose S. × townsendii ) are not cyto-logically atypical of the main body of this species in North America, and there is therefore no reason to doubt, on the grounds of aberrant chromosome number, the role of S. alterniflora as a parent of S. × townsendii.
2 n = 62 is anomalous with respect to the basic number of x = 10 generally found in the genus. The present results indicate that 2 n = 62 is widespread in north-eastern North American S. alterniflora , and no other chromosome number has been found in a survey of the region. But the species is wide-ranging and the possibility of 2 n = 60 occurring in other areas, especially in the south of its range, cannot be ruled out. However, the only chromosome number so far confirmed in southern populations is a count of 2 n = 62 from Texas.
