植物群落的冗余结构——对生态系统稳定性的一种解释

应用冗余理论探讨植物群落的稳定性机理。植物群落的冗余是由植物体的器官冗余、种群内遗传结构冗余、物种冗余和层次冗余组成的。植物群落的抵抗力主要来自物种冗余和种群内遗传结构冗余,而恢复力来自层次冗余和器官冗余。植物群落的冗余结构决定了其稳定性是抵抗的,或是恢复的,或即是抵抗的又是恢复的。研究表明,冗余理论比多样性导致稳定性更能合理地解释植物群落的稳定性。植物群落冗余按其组成万分的性质可分为两种：数量冗     

桂林岩溶石山青冈栎群落的数量分析

应用双向指示种分析(TWINSPAN)和除趋势对应分析(DCA)方法对桂林岩溶石山青冈栎群落进行数量分类与排序。通过TWINSPAN分类,将青冈栎群落60个样方划分为8个群丛类型,探讨了各群丛类型的基本特征。结果表明:DCA排序与TWINSPAN分类结果较一致,DCA排序较好地体现了各群丛类型与环境因子的相互关系,DCA第一排序轴主要反映了坡度的变化梯度;DCA排序图的对角线基本体现了坡向的变化梯度。坡度的变化是影响岩溶石山青冈栎群落物种组成与分布的重要生态因子。

中国大陆青冈分布区东缘大金山岛种群种子形态变异

在大陆青冈分布区东缘的大金山岛种群中按不同坡向取样,旨在揭示相对均一条件下青冈种子的形态变异及变异的来源,以从不同侧面研究环境对形态变异的作用。大金山岛种群青冈种子的长度、直径和重量分别为1.557±0.128cm、1.175±0.112cm、1.321±0.310g,处于青冈种子正常分布范围内。单颗种子的长度、直径符合正态分布,而重量则明显偏离正态分布。不同坡向青冈种子间差异很小,表明微地形的影响较小;种群变异的来源株内和株间约各占一半,说明种子表型具有一定的可塑性,主要由于种子处于植株不同部位的缘故。

江苏省地带性植被的基本特点与分布规律

江苏省地跨南暖温带、北亚热带和中亚热带三个生物气候带,典型地带性植被类型依次为落叶阔叶林、落叶常绿阔叶混交林和常绿阔叶林。前两个类型也分别见于北亚热带和中亚热带地区。三个地带性植被类型的主要类型及其分布与组成特点,分别列表概述。落叶常绿阔叶混交林是落叶林与常绿阔叶林之间的过渡类型,在北亚热带地区,林内落叶树的种类与数量往往超过常绿树,落叶层片占优势地位。江苏境内的常绿阔叶林,因地处中亚热带北缘,具有一定的过渡性特征,林内落叶阔叶树的种类往往超过常绿阔叶树,但后者的多度与盖度均占显著优势地位,常绿层片为主,所以外貌为常绿阔叶林。 江苏没有高山,东西间狭窄,故植被的垂直地带性和经度地带性分布规律均未显示。但南北间宽广,跨纬度4?以上,从北向南气候梯度变化明显,所以植被分布的纬度地带性规律明显。     

Iron deficiency induces cluster (proteoid) root formation in Casuarina glauca

The effect of iron deficiency, phosphorus, NaHCO₃, chelator supply and nitrogen source on the formation of cluster (proteoid) roots was investigated in Casuarina glauca growing in water culture. The addition of iron-binding chelators (e.g. EDDHA, DTPA, EDTA) or increase in nutrient solution pH with NaHCO₃ resulted in the formation of cluster roots when plants were grown in solution lacking iron. Phosphorus supply even at a concentration of 500 µM did not inhibit cluster root formation if EDDHA was added to the iron-deficient medium. Cluster root formation was influenced significantly by nitrogen source and occurred only in nitrate-fed plants.C. glauca seemed to be very sensitive to iron deficiency as shown by plant chlorosis when grown on alkaline soil. The symptoms of chlorosis decreased as the chlorophyll content in shoots and the number of cluster roots increased, suggesting that the alleviation of iron deficiency in plant tissues was correlated with cluster root formation. It appears that iron deficiency is more important than phosphorus deficiency in inducing the formation of cluster roots in C. glauca.     

Transfer of 'Thermoactinomyces glaucus' IFO 12530 and 'Thermoactinomyces monosporus' IFO 14050 to the genus Saccharomonospora as members of Saccharomonospora glauca

Two available strains of 'Thermoactinomyces glaucus' and 'Thermoactinomyces monosporus', 'T. glaucus' IFO 12530 and 'T. monosporus' IFO 14050, were considered not to be members of the genus Thermoactinomyces and that they belonged to the genus Saccharomonospora on the basis of the colors of colonies and 16S rDNA sequences. Some chemotaxonomic characteristics also showed that the two strains belong to the genus Saccharomonospora. The two strains contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, galactose, and arabinose in the cell wall and MK-9(H(4)) as the predominant menaquinone. The genomic DNAs of the two strains had a G+C content of 69 mol%. The 16S rDNAs of 'T. glaucus' IFO 12530 and 'T. monosporus' IFO 14050 showed only 1 and 2 bp sequence differences, respectively, from that of the type strain of Saccharomonospora glauca. Furthermore, the two strains of 'T. glaucus' and 'T. monosporus' and the type strain of S. glauca shared identical 16S-23S rDNA ITS sequences. The levels of DNA-DNA relatedness confirm that the two strains of 'T. glaucus' and 'T. monosporus' are members of Saccharomonospora glauca. Therefore it is proposed that 'T. glaucus' IFO 12530 and 'T. monosporus' IFO 14050 should be considered as strains belonging to Saccharomonospora glauca.     

Does Ethylene Mediate Cluster Root Formation under Iron Deficiency?

Casuarina glauca develops proteoid (cluster) roots in response to Fe deficiency. This study set out to investigate the possible involvement of ethylene in the initiation and/or the morphogenesis of cluster roots (CR). For this purpose, the effect of Ag+ added as silver thiosulfate, an inhibitor of ethylene action has been studied in plants growing hydroponically. No CR formation was observed in these growth conditions. Inhibition of ethylene biosynthesis by aminoethoxyvinylglycine, 1- aminoisobutyric acid, aminoxyacetic acid or cobalt chloride also eliminated the positive effect of Fe deficiency on CR formation in C. glauca. CR were not formed in Fe- deficient roots in the presence of ethylene inhibitors, suggesting a role for ethylene in the morphological responses to Fe deficiency. Interestingly, treatment of Casuarina plants with the ethylene precursor 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid stimulated significantly the formation of CR, even if plants are supplied with Fe. However, this stimulation did not reach the level of CR obtained in Fe-deficient plants. These results suggest that an ethylene-mediated signalling pathway is involved in CR formation process in C. glauca.     

Kinetics of the thermal inactivation and aggregate formation of rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase in the presence of trehalose

In a previous study we found that 30-40% dimethylsulfoxide induces the active conformation of rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase. Because dimethylsulfoxide is known to perturb structure and function of many proteins, we have explored the effect of trehalose on the kinetics of thermal inactivation and stability of pyruvate kinase; this is because trehalose, in contrast to dimethyl sulfoxide, is totally excluded from the hydration shell of proteins. The results show that 600 mM trehalose inhibits the activity of pyruvate kinase by about 20% at 25 °C, however, trehalose protects pyruvate kinase from thermal inactivation at 60 °C, increases the Tm_app of unfolding by 7.2 °C, induces a more compact state, and stabilizes its tetrameric structure. The inactivation process is irreversible due to the formation of protein aggregates. Trehalose diminishes the rate of formation of intermediates with propensity to aggregate, but does not affect the extent of aggregation. Remarkably, trehalose affects the aggregation process by inducing aggregates with amyloid-like characteristics.

Molecular evidence of hybridization in Florida's sheoak (Casuarina spp.) invasion

The presence of hybrids in plant invasions can indicate a potential for rapid adaptation and an added level of complexity in management of the invasion. Three Casuarina tree species, Casuarina glauca , Casuarina cunninghamiana and Casuarina equisetifolia , native to Australia, are naturalized in Florida, USA. Many Florida Casuarina trees are considered unidentifiable, presumably due to interspecific hybridization. We collected tissue from over 500 trees from Australia and Florida and genotyped these using amplified fragment length polymorphisms. Our goal was to determine the exact identity of the Florida species, including any putative hybrid combinations. In Australia, we found high assignment values to the three parental species, and no evidence of hybridization. In Florida, we found many trees with strong assignment to any one of the three species, as well as 49 trees with assignment values intermediate to C. glauca and C. equisetifolia , suggesting hybridization between these species. One population of 10 trees had assignment values intermediate to C. cunninghamiana and C. glauca , suggesting additional hybridization. For 69 of these putative hybrid and parental types, we sequenced a low-copy intron of nuclear G3pdh , and these sequences indicated that some Florida trees contain heterozygotic combinations of C. glauca and C. equisetifolia haplotypes. The presence of novel hybrids in the Florida invasion may enhance evolution of invasive traits in these species. Novel Casuarina hybrids in Florida have no coevolutionary history with any insects or diseases, which may be problematic for biological control efforts.     

温度和土壤含水量对青冈栎种子萌发的影响

运用直播法,研究应用人工气候箱控制温度和土壤含水量对野生青冈栎种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响。结果表明:在12h光照条件下,青冈栎种子在变温为10℃/15℃时,萌发率很低,仅为(12±12.29)%;变温为30℃/35℃时,萌发率达最大,为(81±13.7)%。土壤含水量为30%～40%时,萌发率为(79±15.9)%;土壤含水量为90%～100%时,萌发率为(56.67±19.36)%。青冈栎种子萌发呈现出迅速萌发和推迟萌发的特点;温度对青冈栎幼苗的苗高、叶长和叶宽影响显著,对幼苗的地径、叶片数量影响不显著。恒温下,不同梯度土壤含水量处理对幼苗的苗高、地径、叶长、宽影响不显著。     

岩溶区青冈栎整树蒸腾的季节变化

应用Granier热消散树干液流技术,在裸露岩溶区坡地上对青冈栎样树的树干液流和整树蒸腾过程变化及其驱动因子进行了研究.结果表明:青冈栎树干液流密度与树木胸径大小的关系是随机的,日间液流密度峰值出现在13:30—14:30;日液流密度峰值夏季最大,为56.00 g H₂O·m^-2·s^-1,春季最小,在35.86 g H₂O·m^-2·s^-1.岩溶区单树日蒸腾量随着天气变化起伏较大,单树日蒸腾量与水汽压亏缺和太阳辐射呈显著的幂函数相关关系(R=0.97,P<0.01).平均整树日蒸腾量变化格型为夏季高冬春低,秋季(旱季)随土壤水分的减少由高到低变化.与其他地区的树种相比,即使受旱季的干燥少土双重胁迫,裸露岩溶区坡地上的青冈栎整树日蒸腾量仍然较高,推断在岩溶区旱季青冈栎的水分来源可能很大程度上依赖于富水的表层岩溶带.     

Spatial pattern of chloroplast DNA variation of Cyclobalanopsis glauca in Taiwan and East Asia

This study examined the spatial pattern of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) variation in Cyclobalanopsis glauca (Thunb. ex Murray) Oerst. (Fagaceae) in 140 trees from Taiwan (25 populations), Japan (three), Ryukyus (two), Hong Kong (one) and Mainland China (one). By sequencing three cpDNA intergenic spacer fragments using universal primers (trnT-trnL, trnV-trnM, including the trnV intron, and petG-trnP), we found a total of 1,980 bp and 15 polymorphic sites. Among them, 12 sites were caused by point mutation, and three resulted from insertion. This gives rise to a total of 13 cpDNA haplotypes. The level of differentiation among the populations studied is relatively high (GST = 0.612). Two ancestral haplotypes (A and B) are distributed widely in East Asia. Interestingly, all the derived cpDNA variations are found only in Taiwan but not in other areas. The Central Mountain Ridge (CMR) of Taiwan creates an unsurpassed barrier to the east-west gene flow of C. glauca. Among the populations on the west of CMR, only three separated populations, Yangmingshan, Wushe and Chinshuiying, have high haplotype diversity, each consisting of sister haplotypes all mutated from the same ancestral haplotype. Thus, they have probably originated from de novo mutation after the last glaciation. This inference agrees with the observation that no spatial autocorrelation existed on the west side. Two unrelated dominant lineages on the east of the CMR (haplotypes D and F) showed significant spatial genetic structure. Estimate of NST - GST was -0.090 and differed significantly from zero. Thus at the local scale, the phylogeographical component of the genetic structure is significant on the east of the CMR. Accompanied by published palynological records of the last glaciation, this study suggests the possibility that these two types were colonized northward from the southeastern part of Taiwan. 'Star-like' genealogy is characterized, with all the haplotypes coalescing rapidly and as a general outcome of population expansion (Page & Holmes 1998). A neutrality test also suggested a demographic expansion recovered from a bottleneck. We therefore inferred that the southeastern part of Taiwan might be a potential refugium for C. glauca.     

山东滨海盐生植物根结构及通气组织的比较研究

对山东滨海14种盐生植物的根及根中的通气组织进行了解剖不的比较研究。研究表明：除了少数植物的根中产生发达的机械组织,通气组织不发达以外,绝大多数植物的根中都具有发达的通气组织。这些通气组织的胞间隙非常明显,形成多个通气道,特别是一些根状茎,平卧茎发达的植物,如沙滩黄芩（Scutellaria strigillosa Heml.),海边香豌豆(Lathyrus maritimus(L.)Bigel.）,肾叶打碗花（Calystegia,soldanella(L.)R.Br.),其通气道较大。胞间隙的发生主要有二种情况;（1）裂生胞间隙;（2）溶生胞间隙,这是大多数胞间隙形成的方式。通气组织大多分布于靠近表皮的皮层和靠近周皮的次生韧怪部中,即位于保护组织的内侧。     

珍稀植物华木莲的现代濒危机制:探析与展望

华木莲(Sinomanglietia glauca)在探讨木兰科系统演化与被子植物起源等方面具有重要科学价值,但其分布区域狭窄、种群规模较小,被列为我国濒危植物和极小种群植物。该文在系统综述华木莲生物生态学特性和更新维持机制的基础上,对华木莲的现代濒危原因进行了总结:(1)华木莲属古老残遗濒危植物,环境变迁、瓶颈效应、高频自交和遗传漂变,导致其遗传多样性下降、适应性差;(2)喜光喜肥的生物生态学特性和群落种间竞争驱赶作用,"林—窗"游击式更新是华木莲种群延续的重要方式,然而当前人类干扰导致有效林窗供给不足、种子传播效率下降、"游击"机会减少,更新难以完成;(3)毛竹扩张与林下箬竹过度增长严重影响华木莲开花结实,并妨碍其幼苗更新。今后应加强华木莲谱系地理与群落系统发育、群落环境对华木莲生长发育的影响及其应答、林窗更新机制与种子长距传播、群落结构调整与保护技术、遗传复壮与迁地保护等方面研究,为华木莲以及相似生物生态学特征的濒危植物保护提供理论指导。     

Relationships Between Geographical Distribution of Cyclobalanopsis glauca and Climate in China

Cyclobalanopsis glauca (Thunb.) Oerst., which belongs to China-Japan subtype of East Asia district, is a evergreen broadleaved tree of Fagaceae. It is distributed widely in the subtropical region of China and also in Japan, Korea, India, Burma, etc. According to the data on geographical distribution of this species collected extensively, the indexes of vegetation-climate interaction which used widely in the world were calculated. These indexes include Kira' s water-temperature indexes, Penman's formula, Thornthwaite's indexes and climatic classification, Holdridge's life zone classification system, annual average temperature, mean temperature in January, mean temperature in July, maximum temperature, minimum temperature, ≥10 ℃ accumulated temperature and precipitation. The relationships between geographical distribution of Cyclobalanopsis glauca and climate in China has been analysed and the Kira's water-temperature indexes on the distributional upper limit, lower limit and north limit have been discussed. The relation of species versus climate in historial period and the relation of species versus climate in historial period have also been discussed according to palynological and written records. The potential change of the tree species distributional area under elevated CO2 concentration has been forecast based on Holdridge' s indexes of life zone classification system and GCM models' conclusions.
