干热河谷主要造林树种气体交换特性的坡位效应

植物光合与水分生理特征是植物逆境适应能力评价的重要参考指标.极端生境下,坡位的选择有时成为造林成败的关键.探讨了元谋金沙江干热河谷9个主要造林树种光合与蒸腾作用在不同坡位间的空间差异及干热季向湿润季转换的时序差异.结果表明,低的坡位有助于树种维持相对高的净光合速率,且树种不同,由坡位引起的光合增益效应亦具有较大差别;低坡位的光合增益效应在干热季更为明显,而在湿润季,干热胁迫解除,低坡位的光合增益效应具有较大程度的降低;在不同坡位间发生的光合限制主要受非气孔因素主导.无论在干热季或湿润季,与净光合速率的变化情形一致,低的坡位均促进了树种的蒸腾速率.水分利用效率受坡位的影响较为复杂,因树种、季节而异.     

干热河谷9种造林树种在旱季的水分关系和气孔导度

 对元谋干热河谷人工混交林中9个树种叶片的水势、饱和渗透势、气孔导度、渗透调节和季节变化进行了测定,同时对树高和胸径也进行了比较。水分生理特征表明: 1)随着旱季的深入,除刺槐（Robinia pseudoacacia）、黄荆（Vitex negundo）、滇榄仁（Terminalia franchetii）落叶外,其余常绿树种叶片的气孔导度、水势和饱和渗透势都呈下降的趋势,在最旱的三、四月份,它们适应干旱的方式有4种：①低水势、气孔导度近似关闭的厚荚相思（Acacia leptocarpa）、大叶相思（A. auriculiformis）和肯氏相思（A. cunninghamii）;②低水势、低气孔导度的赤桉（Eucalyptus dulebsis）、娟毛相思（A. holosericea）和车桑子（Dodonaea wiscosa）loserice气孔导度的柠檬桉（Eucalyptus citriodora）和新银合欢（Leucaena leucocephala）;④较高水势、气孔导度近似关闭的马占相思（Acacia mangium）。2)在干旱胁迫过程中,主要渗透调节物质出现的先后顺序是K+、游离脯氨酸、游离氨基酸和可溶性糖, K+和可溶性糖贡献最大,分别在干旱的前后期起渗透调节作用,游离脯氨酸和游离氨基酸在干旱的中期起渗透调节作用。大多数树种适应干热河谷生境的主要抗旱途径是有效的吸水能力和完善的保水机制。     

干旱胁迫对夏蜡梅光合特性的影响

以2年生夏蜡梅(Sinocalycanthus chinensis)苗木为材料,通过盆栽试验,研究土壤干旱胁迫对夏蜡梅叶片光合特性的影响,结果显示:随着干旱胁迫程度的加重,夏蜡梅叶片净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度显著降低;胞间CO2浓度在轻度和中度胁迫下显著低于对照,但在重度胁迫下显著高于对照;水分利用效率在胁迫下提高,且以中度胁迫为最大.温度升高使叶片净光合速率和水分利用效率降低、蒸腾速率升高,加重了干旱对光合作用的不利影响.对照及轻度和中度干旱胁迫处理的净光合速率、气孔导度和水分利用效率日变化曲线均为双峰型,但重度胁迫下净光合速率和气孔导度日变化转变为峰值很小的单峰型;各处理的蒸腾速率日变化曲线为单峰型并以午间最高.表明夏蜡梅光合作用对干旱胁迫有一定的适应能力,但重度胁迫对其造成严重影响.     

水分胁迫对沙棘(Hippophae rhamnoides)和中间锦鸡儿(Caragana intermedia)蒸腾作用影响的比较

多年生灌木沙棘和中间锦鸡儿是黄土高原生态重建的重要物种,设计人工模拟水分胁迫实验,测量沙棘和中间锦鸡儿蒸腾作用的各种指标,研究其蒸腾特性对水分胁迫的适应方式。结果表明,同等水分处理条件下,中间锦鸡儿单叶水平上的蒸腾速率高于沙棘。沙棘和中间锦鸡儿的蒸腾速率日进程在晴天、阴雨天和生长发育的不同阶段明显不同。夜间蒸腾占全天蒸腾的比例相当大,夜间蒸腾在不同物种之间、不同供水量之间存在明显差异,而且越干旱的环境比例越大。两种植物气孔阻力的季节变化格局在不同水分处理间大体相似。沙棘的昼夜蒸腾节律在各种水分处理条件下都表现出明显的气孔振荡现象,而中间锦鸡儿没有。叶片温度、光合有效辐射和气孔阻力是各种水分条件下沙棘和中间锦鸡儿蒸腾作用的共同的限制因子,相对于沙棘,中间锦鸡儿还更多地受到空气相对湿度的影响。     

不同程度的水分胁迫对中间锦鸡儿幼苗气体交换特征的影响

为探讨未来降水减少对内蒙古皇甫川流域人工栽培主要灌木树种中间锦鸡儿气体交换特征的影响 ,特设计正常降雨水平、偏旱、干旱和极端干旱 4种水分处理水平 ,进行人工模拟水分胁迫实验。结果表明 ,不同的水分处理显著影响土壤含水量、土壤温度、净光合速率、气孔导度、蒸腾速率、资源利用效率和叶片水势。适度的水分胁迫 (干旱环境 )能够提高中间锦鸡儿的水分利用效率和抗旱性 ,同时也降低了净光合速率与蒸腾速率。随水分胁迫的增强 ,中间锦鸡儿的净光合速率日变化曲线逐渐从典型的单峰型转变成双峰型 ,出现光合“午睡”现象。根据 Farquhar和 Sharkey提出的判别标准 ,干旱和极端干旱下光合“午睡”的原因分别以气孔因素和非气孔因素 (叶肉细胞光合能力下降 )为主。中间锦鸡儿通过自身的生理调节以抵抗干旱 ,是其能够适应干旱环境、历经 3a大旱而幸存下来的重要原因

松嫩草地全叶马兰夏季与秋季光合及蒸腾作用的比较

在生长季晴天条件下,夏季和秋季松嫩草地全叶马兰的光合,蒸腾作用的日变化均为双峰曲线,但不同季节有所差异,夏季日均净光合速率与蒸腾速率均高于秋季,光合和蒸腾作用与环境因子的植物内部因子之间有密切关系。分析表明,叶片净光合速率与有效光辐射呈极显著相关,与气孔阻力,胞间CO2呈负相关;蒸腾速率与有效光辐射呈极显著相关,与叶温,饱和差呈正相关,与气孔阻力,胞间CO2浓度呈负相关,有效光辐射是影响光合和蒸腾作用诸因子中的主导因子,而气孔阻力变化则在调节光合和蒸腾中起着重要作用,蒸腾速率午降主要由于光辐射强,叶温高,湿度低,植物体缺水,气孔部分关闭所致。     

黄土丘陵区辽东栎和刺槐树干径向生长与微变化季节动态特征

树干径向生长和微变化动态受树种特性和环境因子的综合影响,是树木响应环境因子的重要表征。解析树干直径在不同时间尺度上的动态特征是探明树木水分生理生态特性的重要途径,在水分胁迫风险较高的半干旱地区更具有特殊意义。该研究以半干旱黄土丘陵区两典型造林树种辽东栎(Quercus mongolica var. liaotungensis)和刺槐(Robinia pseudoacacia)为对象,运用DC3型高精度树干径向变化记录仪监测树干直径变化动态,同步测定土壤水分动态和驱动蒸腾作用的主要气象因子,分析两树种树干径向生长特征、直径微变化日动态与季节动态及其对环境因子的响应。结果表明,两树种树干直径的季节性变化可划分为非生长季收缩阶段、过渡阶段和生长季增长阶段。辽东栎和刺槐径向生长启动时间分别为4月7日和5月4日前后,9月下旬基本停止生长;在生长阶段直径变化可分别利用指数饱和增长函数和线性增长函数拟合。两树种直径日变化模式在11月至次年3月为典型的非生长季模式,6–9月为典型的生长季模式,而在4–5月两树种的直径日变化模式不同,反映了两树种的生长节律和物候期差异。非生长季两树种直径日最大收缩量均与...

以浙江庆元、湖南洞口和湖南靖州3个种源的赤皮青冈1年生幼苗为材料,采用盆栽称量法控制土壤水分含量,设置土壤相对含水量分别为75%～80%(对照)、55%～60%(轻度干旱胁迫)、45%～50%(中度干旱胁迫)和30%～35%(重度干旱胁迫),研究不同程度干旱胁迫对赤皮青冈幼苗叶片解剖结构和蒸腾作用的影响.结果表明: 干旱胁迫下,3个种源赤皮青冈幼苗叶片的总厚度、上下表皮厚度和栅栏组织厚度均显著降低.栅栏组织厚度与海绵组织厚度比(栅海比)、气孔长度和宽度随干旱程度的增强而显著减小,而气孔密度随干旱胁迫程度的增强而显著增加.干旱处理对叶片主脉厚度无显著影响,木质部厚度的变化因种源而异.叶片结构的变化引起生理功能改变,随着胁迫程度的加强,赤皮青冈幼苗的蒸腾速率显著降低.对照和各干旱处理湖南洞口种源幼苗叶片的下表皮厚度、栅海比、气孔密度显著大于其他2个种源,蒸腾速率显著小于其他2个种源,表明湖南洞口赤皮青冈对干旱胁迫的适应性较强.     

福建长汀重建植被马尾松与木荷光合特性比较

比较了福建长汀水土流失区重建植被措施治理后,2个不同恢复程度生境中的马尾松(Pinus massoniana)与木荷(Schima superba)光合特性季节变化及日进程,结果表明:(1)马尾松净光合速率(Pn)具有明显的季节变化特征,其中恢复程度较低生境(样地Ⅰ)马尾松Pn最大值出现在秋季,恢复程度较高生境(样地Ⅱ)马尾松Pn春季最大,秋季次之;样地Ⅱ马尾松Pn日均值冬季显著低于样地Ⅰ(P<0.05),春季极显著高于样地Ⅰ(P<0.01),反映出样地Ⅱ马尾松抵御低温胁迫的能力强于样地Ⅰ马尾松.(2)样地Ⅰ和样地Ⅱ木荷Pn季节变化趋势一致,最大值均出现在夏季,且样地Ⅱ木荷Pn高于样地Ⅰ;此外,样地Ⅱ木荷Pn秋季仍维持在较高水平.说明重建植被措施治理后,木荷在恢复程度较高生境中生长良好.(3)根据气孔导度、胞间CO2浓度和气孔限制值的变化方向判断,夏季和秋季样地Ⅰ马尾松与木荷Pn主要受气孔因素影响,8:00后呈缓慢下降趋势,显示在长期较为恶劣的生境条件下,马尾松与木荷已形成一种趋同的生理生态适应机制,即通过气孔调节限制蒸腾失水,但这种适应是以降低光合速率为代价的,这也是样地Ⅰ马尾松与木荷生长缓慢的一个重要原因.(4)同一生境,木荷Pn与蒸腾速率(Tr)均明显高于马尾松,尤其样地Ⅱ2树种间的差异更显著,表明重建植被措施实施后,生态恢复程度较高生境中,木荷生长、竞争优势强于马尾松.     

Rainfall seasonality and drought performance shape the distribution of tropical tree species in Ghana

Tree species distribution in lowland tropical forests is strongly associated with rainfall amount and distribution. Not only plant water availability, but also irradiance, soil fertility, and pest pressure covary along rainfall gradients. To assess the role of water availability in shaping species distribution, we carried out a reciprocal transplanting experiment in gaps in a dry and a wet forest site in Ghana, using 2,670 seedlings of 23 tree species belonging to three contrasting rainfall distributions groups (dry species, ubiquitous species, and wet species). We evaluated seasonal patterns in climatic conditions, seedling physiology and performance (survival and growth) over a 2‐year period and related seedling performance to species distribution along Ghana's rainfall gradient. The dry forest site had, compared to the wet forest, higher irradiance, and soil nutrient availability and experienced stronger atmospheric drought (2.0 vs. 0.6 kPa vapor pressure deficit) and reduced soil water potential (?5.0 vs. ?0.6 MPa soil water potential) during the dry season. In both forests, dry species showed significantly higher stomatal conductance and lower leaf water potential, than wet species, and in the dry forest, dry species also realized higher drought survival and growth rate than wet species. Dry species are therefore more drought tolerant, and unlike the wet forest species, they achieve a home advantage. Species drought performance in the dry forest relative to the wet forest significantly predicted species position on the rainfall gradient in Ghana, indicating that the ability to grow and survive better in dry forests and during dry seasons may allow species to occur in low rainfall areas. Drought is therefore an important environmental filter that influences forest composition and dynamics. Currently, many tropical forests experience increase in frequency and intensity of droughts, and our results suggest that this may lead to reduction in tree productivity and shifts in species distribution.     

Key characteristics for facilitating Leucaena leucocephala to successfully invade pioneer communities of tropical rain forests

Aims Due to fast-growing and high drought stress tolerance, Leucaena leucocephala has been widely used for afforestation in degraded tropical forests worldwide, but it is also a global invasive exotic species. Studies have shown that fast-growing can help L. leucocephala successfully invade subtropical forests. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether fast-growing and high drought stress tolerance can help L. leucocephala invade tropical rain forests.Methods The pioneer community of tropical rain forest which had been invaded by L. leucocephala in the Baopoling Mountain, Sanya, China was the research object. Through the t-test, we compared the differences in key functional traits that were related to growth rate (photosynthesis rate, stomatal conductance and transpiration rate) and drought stress tolerance (leaf turgor loss point) in both wet and dry seasons between L. leucocephala and eight dominant native species of pioneer community of tropical rain forest. And the principal component analysis (PCA) was used to investigate whether these functional traits can best discriminate between Leucaena leucocephala and the eight dominant native species.Important findings Leucaena leucocephala could be invariably growing fast (photosynthesis rate, stomatal conductance and transpiration rate much higher than native species) from wet to dry seasons and had higher drought stress tolerance (leaf turgor loss point much lower than native species) in the dry season. The results of PCA showed that these functional traits could significantly discriminate between L. leucocephala and the eight dominant native species. Therefore, invariable fast-growing from wet to dry season and high drought stress tolerance in the dry season make L. leucocephala successfully invade pioneer communities of tropical rain forests. In the future, these functional traits can be used to select many native species to perform biological control of L. leucocephala in other tropical forests.     

银合欢成功入侵热带雨林先锋群落的关键因素

由于生长速率高, 耐旱性强, 银合欢(Leucaena leucocephala)被广泛应用于世界各地退化热带亚热带森林的修复, 但它也是一种全球性的外来入侵植物。已经有研究发现高生长速率可以帮助银合欢成功入侵亚热带森林, 但是目前还不清楚高生长速率和强耐旱性是否能帮助银合欢成功入侵热带森林。该研究以位于中国三亚抱坡岭被银合欢入侵的热带雨林先锋群落为研究对象, 通过t检验比较干季和湿季银合欢和8个热带雨林先锋群落的本地优势种与快速生长(光合速率、气孔导度和蒸腾速率)和耐旱性(叶片膨压丧失点)紧密相关的功能性状的差异, 并利用主成分分析(PCA)研究这些功能性状是否能很好地区分银合欢和其他8个本地优势种。结果表明: 银合欢在干湿季均能快速地生长(比本地物种显著更高的光合速率、气孔导度和蒸腾速率), 且在干季拥有更强的耐旱性(比本地物种显著更低的叶片膨压丧失点)。PCA结果表明这些功能性状能够显著区分银合欢和其他8个本地优势种。因此干湿季的稳定的快速生长和干季的强耐旱性使银合欢成功入侵热带雨林先锋群落。未来可利用这些功能性状筛选合适的本地物种对入侵其他热带森林的银合欢进行有效的生物防治。     

Wet- vs. Dry-Season Transpiration in an Amazonian Rain Forest Palm Iriartea deltoidea

The wet and dry seasons in tropical rain forests can differ in precipitation, soil moisture and irradiance more significantly than often assumed. This could potentially affect the water relations of many tree species that may exhibit either increased transpiration in the dry season as a response to the increased irradiance or decreased transpiration as a result of decreases in soil moisture and increases in atmospheric vapor pressure deficit (VPD). Atmospheric data, soil moisture data and sap fluxes in Iriartea deltoidea palms were measured in eastern Ecuador during the wet and dry seasons. There were no differences between total daily sap fluxes in I. deltoidea palms during the wet and dry seasons; however, evaporative demand was significantly higher in the dry season and therefore, transpiration was more restricted by stomatal closure during the dry season than the wet season. This is likely the result of larger atmospheric VPD during the dry season compared with the wet season and possibly the result of reduced soil moisture availability. Additionally, based on published tree abundances in this area, measured sap fluxes in I. deltoidea were scaled up to the hectare level. Transpiration from I. deltoidea palms was estimated to be around 0.03 mm/d, which could represent about 1 percent of total transpiration in this area of the Amazon rain forest. If climate change predictions for more lengthy tropical dry periods are realized, greater stomatal control of dry-season sap flux has the potential to become even more prevalent in tropical species.     

The combined effects of a long‐term experimental drought and an extreme drought on the use of plant‐water sources in a Mediterranean forest

Vegetation in water‐limited ecosystems relies strongly on access to deep water reserves to withstand dry periods. Most of these ecosystems have shallow soils over deep groundwater reserves. Understanding the functioning and functional plasticity of species‐specific root systems and the patterns of or differences in the use of water sources under more frequent or intense droughts is therefore necessary to properly predict the responses of seasonally dry ecosystems to future climate. We used stable isotopes to investigate the seasonal patterns of water uptake by a sclerophyll forest on sloped terrain with shallow soils. We assessed the effect of a long‐term experimental drought (12 years) and the added impact of an extreme natural drought that produced widespread tree mortality and crown defoliation. The dominant species, Quercus ilex, Arbutus unedo and Phillyrea latifolia, all have dimorphic root systems enabling them to access different water sources in space and time. The plants extracted water mainly from the soil in the cold and wet seasons but increased their use of groundwater during the summer drought. Interestingly, the plants subjected to the long‐term experimental drought shifted water uptake toward deeper (10–35 cm) soil layers during the wet season and reduced groundwater uptake in summer, indicating plasticity in the functional distribution of fine roots that dampened the effect of our experimental drought over the long term. An extreme drought in 2011, however, further reduced the contribution of deep soil layers and groundwater to transpiration, which resulted in greater crown defoliation in the drought‐affected plants. This study suggests that extreme droughts aggravate moderate but persistent drier conditions (simulated by our manipulation) and may lead to the depletion of water from groundwater reservoirs and weathered bedrock, threatening the preservation of these Mediterranean ecosystems in their current structures and compositions.     

Sensitivity of canopy transpiration to altered precipitation in an upland oak forest: evidence from a long-term field manipulation study

Climate‐induced changes in regional precipitation could have important implications for the carbon, water, and nutrient cycles of forest ecosystems. However, few studies have examined the response of deciduous forests to increases or decreases in precipitation. Therefore, the throughfall displacement experiment (TDE) was established in 1993 near Oak Ridge, Tennessee to examine the sensitivity of an upland oak (Quercus spp.) forest to ambient, wet (+33%), and dry (?33%) precipitation regimes. Sap flux measurements on co‐occurring tree species were scaled using species‐specific estimates of stand sapwood area to derive daily and seasonal rates of canopy transpiration (E_C) from 2000 to 2003. With the exception of 2003, which was an extremely wet year, daily E_C in the dry plot, and occasionally during extended droughts in the ambient and wet plots, declined as water potential in the upper 0.35 m soil profile approached ‐3.0 MPa. Seasonal patterns of soil water potential and treatment‐specific differences in E_C were dependent on precipitation frequency and intensity. Supplemental precipitation added to the wet plot increased seasonal E_C on average by 9% (range ?1% to 19%), whereas extended periods of drought on the dry plot in 2000, 2001, and 2002 were sufficient to reduce seasonal E_C by 26–30% compared with the ambient plot. There was a strong correlation between seasonal E_C and the water stress integral, a cumulative index of drought severity and duration. A polynomial fitted to these data indicated that reductions in seasonal E_C on the order of 40% were possible given TDE‐imposed reductions in soil water potential. Application of this equation to all years of the TDE (1994–2003) revealed considerable interannual and treatment‐specific variation in canopy transpiration. In general, a 33% removal of throughfall on the dry plot during 1995, 1998, and 2002 resulted in a 23–32% reduction in seasonal E_C compared with the ambient plot. While droughts in deciduous forests are often limited in duration and tend to occur late in the growing season, soil water deficits of the magnitude observed in this study have the potential to impact local and regional forest water budgets.     

Influence of Seasonal Variations in Soil Water Availability on Gas Exchange of Tropical Canopy Trees

Seasonal variations in environmental conditions influence the functioning of the whole ecosystem of tropical rain forests, but as yet little is known about how such variations directly influence the leaf gas exchange and transpiration of individual canopy tree species. We examined the influence of seasonal variations in relative extractable water in the upper soil layers on predawn leaf water potential, saturated net photosynthesis, leaf dark respiration, stomatal conductance, and tree transpiration of 13 tropical rain forest canopy trees (eight species) over 2 yr in French Guiana. The canopies were accessed by climbing ropes attached to the trees and to a tower. Our results indicate that a small proportion of the studied trees were unaffected by soil water depletion during seasonal dry periods, probably thanks to efficient deep root systems. The trees showing decreased tree water status (i.e., predawn leaf water potential) displayed a wide range of leaf gas exchange responses. Some trees strongly regulated photosynthesis and transpiration when relative extractable water decreased drastically. In contrast, other trees showed little variation, thus indicating good adaptation to soil drought conditions. These results have important applications to modeling approaches: indeed, precise evaluation and grouping of these response patterns are required before any tree‐based functional models can efficiently describe the response of tropical rain forest ecosystems to future changes in environmental conditions.     

Late-stage canopy tree species with extremely low δ13C and high stomatal sensitivity to seasonal soil drought in the tropical rainforest of French Guiana

We assessed the daily time‐courses of CO₂ assimilation rate (A), leaf transpiration rate (E), stomatal conductance for water vapour (g_s), leaf water potential ( Ψ _w) and tree transpiration in a wet and a dry season for three late‐stage canopy rainforest tree species in French Guiana differing in leaf carbon isotope composition ( δ ¹³C). The lower sunlit leaf δ ¹³C values found in Virola surinamensis ( ? 29·9‰) and in Diplotropis purpurea ( ? 30·9‰), two light‐demanding species, as compared to Eperua falcata ( ? 28·6‰), a shade‐semi‐tolerant species, were clearly associated with higher maximum g_s values of sunlit leaves in the two former species. These two species were also characterized by a high sensitivity of g_s, sap flow density (Ju) and canopy conductance (g_c) to seasonal soil drought, allowing maintenance of high midday Ψ _w values in the dry season. The data for Diplotropis provided an original picture of increasing midday Ψ _w with increasing soil drought. In Virola, stomata were extremely sensitive to seasonal soil drought, leading to a dramatic decrease in leaf and tree transpiration in the dry season, whereas midday Ψ _w remained close to ? 0·3 MPa. The mechanisms underlying such an extremely high sensitivity of stomata to soil drought remain unknown. In Eperua, g_s of sunlit leaves was non‐responsive to seasonal drought, whereas Ju and g_c were lower in the dry season. This suggests a higher stomatal sensitivity to seasonal drought in shaded leaves than in sunlit ones in this species.
