Koeberlinia has a natural amphitropical distribution that includes the deserts of central Bolivia, northern Mexico, and the southwestern
United States. Despite the long recognition of only one species, K. spinosa, field, herbarium, and SEM studies support the recognition of two species. Koeberlinia spinosa of northern Mexico and adjacent United States is recognized to consist of three varieties: K. spinosa var. spinosa of northeastern Mexico and the adjacent United States, K. spinosa var. tenuispina of the Sonoran Desert of southwestern Arizona, adjacent California, and northwestern Mexico, and K. spinosa var. wivaggii from south central Texas and northern Mexico to Arizona, which is described as new. Koeberlina holacantha, endemic to the deserts of Bolivia, is proposed as new. 相似文献

Abstract The reproductive biology of the Spiny-tailed Agamid Uromastyx philbyi, a herbivorous desert lizard, was studied in western Saudi Arabia. Reproduction is seasonal, with mating in early spring (March), oviposition in late spring (May–June), and hatching in summer (July). The mean clutch size was 6.67 eggs. Eggs are large (mean mass = 7.48 g) and relative clutch mass (RCM) averaged 0.49. Clutch mass and RCM increased with increasing egg mass. Clutch size, egg size, clutch mass, and RCM were significantly correlated with maternal body size. 相似文献

Nolana comprises 89 species almost entirely restricted to the Atacama and Peruvian deserts. These species are adapted to the arid lomas environment of northern Chile and southern Peru, where they depend on marine fog locally known as garúa or camanchaca for their development. Recent molecular phylogenetic studies provide support for the placement of Nolana in the Solanaceae rather than Nolanaceae. Additionally, a sister relationship with the tribe Lycieae has been suggested. The pollen morphology of 111 species from 18 genera of southern South American Solanaceae was investigated under light and scanning electron microscopes in order to establish the palynological affinities of Nolana within the Solanaceae and to investigate if pollen morphology is congruent with the phylogenetic relationships and former taxonomic classification of the species of Nolana. The following genera were studied: Nolana, Cestrum, Combera, Dunalia, Fabiana, Jaborosa, Latua, Lycium (incl. Grabowskia, Phrodus), Nicandra, Nicotiana, Nierenbergia, Petunia, Physalis, Reyesia, Salpiglossis, Schizanthus, Solanum and Vestia. Two pollen types that differ in exine structure were distinguished within Nolana; these pollen types are congruent with recent phylogenetic studies, thus, we propose to reinstate Nolana sect. Sorema. 相似文献

We present the results of a revsion of an extensive set of collections of bryophytes from the Novaya Zemlya Archipelago northern extremity, the northern‐most sector of polar deserts, which until now has been poorly explored in terms of the bryophyte flora. The checklist produced includes 24 liverwort and 135 moss species. Thirteen species, viz. Lophoziopsis propagulifera, Scapania degenii, Brachytheciastrum collinum, Bryoerythrophyllum cf. rubrum, Bucklandiella microcarpa, Campylium laxifolium, C. longicuspis, Dicranum schljakovii, Drepanium recurvatum, Flexitrichum gracile, Grimmia longirostris, Hamatocaulis vernicosus and Pseudocalliergon angustifolium are reported for the first time from the polar desert region. Though in number of species known the area loses only to the more intensively studied NE Land of Svalbard, a comparative analysis suggests that our study area is still incompletely known and suffers from ‘phytosociological sampling’ which underestimates the number of small pioneer mosses. A comparative analysis based on published data on other areas of the polar desert region is presented but the results does not confirm previously proposed floristic subdivisions of the polar desert region and may be strongly influenced by incomplete and biased sampling. Some species have a higher share in the vegetation cover of the polar desert region than elsewhere, thus contributing to its segregation and among these are mostly calciphilous/basiphilous species. 相似文献

The steppes and deserts of the Xizang Plateau (Tibet) 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Jin-Ting Wang 《Plant Ecology》1988,75(3):135-142
The Xizang Plateau (Tibet) covers a vast area over 4 000 m with a severe environment. Steppes and deserts are widely distributed on the plateau to the west of 91.5°E. Poaceae, Asteraceae, Fabaceae and Cyperaceae are the most important families in the composition of steppe communities. The steppe can be divided into high-cold steppe and montane steppe. The former one is characterized by the Stipa purpurea community, which occupies a vast area with a cold, dry climate: annual mean temperature 0 to –6°C, annual rainfall is 150–300 mm; The latter one is distributed in some limited regions, where the climate is less severe: annual mean temperature 0–7°C, annual rainfall is 150–400 mm. The representative communities here are the Stipa glareosa and S. bungeana communities. Chenopodiaceae and Asteraceae play a principal role in both high-cold and montane deserts. The high-cold desert is unique. Its major representative is the Ceratoides compacta community, which is found at about 5 000 m, in an extremely cold and very dry climate. The Ceratoides latens and Ajania fruticulosa communities are the common ones of the montane desert which mainly appears below 4 600 m in elevation, where the annual temperature is about 0°C and the rainfall is less than 100 mm. The distribution of the steppe and the desert communities shows a clear regional differentiation, and an equally clear vertical distribution pattern. 相似文献

不同干扰下阿拉善荒漠啮齿动物优势种对气候变化的响应 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
气候变化已对物种分布范围和丰富度产生了极大的影响。荒漠生态系统对气候变化的反应可能更加敏感。作为荒漠生态系统的重要组成者,了解荒漠啮齿动物特别是优势鼠种将对气候变化如何响应,对于荒漠地区生物多样性的维持将具有重要意义。2002—2010年,采用标志重捕法对阿拉善荒漠4种不同生境下啮齿动物优势种群进行了研究,分别利用Spearman相关分析以及典范对应分析(Canonical Correspondence analysis,CCA)对啮齿动物优势种群动态与年平均温度和年降水量的相关性进行了分析。结果表明,不同啮齿动物优势种对温度和降雨的响应不同,尤其以子午沙鼠表现最为显著。跳鼠对温度的适宜性要高于仓鼠科的子午沙鼠和黑线仓鼠,而仓鼠科啮齿动物对降雨的适宜性高于跳鼠。较小尺度上的人为干扰更可能从改变食性和生境的途径上加剧或缓冲降雨对荒漠啮齿动物优势种的影响,而不是改变温度对啮齿动物的作用。 相似文献

Summary
Pogonomyrmex rugosus and Messor pergandei are ecologically similar species of desert seed-harvester ants that coexist in numerous areas throughout the Sonoran and Mohave Deserts. However, these two species also commonly segregate along physical gradients, with each species predominating in areas that differ in soil texture and/or topographic relief. Along gradients that included bajada and alluvial flat habitats, P. rugosus occurred alone in coarse-textured soils near mountains, while M. pergandei occurred alone in finer-textured soils further away. Conversely, along a vegetation gradient that included creosote bush and saltbush habitats, P. rugosus occurred alone in finer-textured soils than those occupied by either M. pergandei alone or both species in coexistence. However, in both situations clay content was significantly higher in areas occupied by P. rugosus alone, and at the latter site clay content was correlated with relative abundance of each species. Moreover, local distribution pattern of these two species may be related to the effects of clay on water retention, with retention being highest in areas occupied by P. rugosus alone. Differences in reproductive ecology may also affect these patterns as P. rugosus reproductive flights follow summer monsoon rains, while those of M. pergandei occur during the milder winter and spring. 相似文献

Hybrid speciation is thought to be facilitated by escape of early generation hybrids into new habitats, subsequent environmental selection and adaptation. Here, we ask whether two homoploid hybrid plant species (Helianthus anomalus, H. deserticola) diverged sufficiently from their ancestral parent species (H. annuus, H. petiolaris) during hybrid speciation so that they are more fit than the parent species in hybrid species habitats. Hybrid and parental species were reciprocally transplanted into hybrid and parental habitats. Helianthus anomalus was more fit than parental species in the H. anomalus actively moving desert dune habitat. The abilities to tolerate burial and excavation and to obtain nutrients appear to be important for success in the H. anomalus habitat. In contrast, H. deserticola failed to outperform the parental species in the H. deserticola stabilized desert dune habitat, and several possible explanations are discussed. The home site advantage of H. anomalus is consistent with environmental selection having been a mechanism for adaptive divergence and hybrid speciation and supports the use of H. anomalus as a valuable system for further assessment of environmental selection and adaptive traits. 相似文献

Aim Ants (Hymenoptera/Formicidae) have strong influences on ecosystems especially in arid regions. However, little is known about ants of the vast steppe and desert regions of Central Asia. Here we provide the first comprehensive study of ant communities in Mongolia, conducted along a north‐to‐south gradient in climate. We examined ants’ distribution patterns, assessed the impact of climatic parameters on community structure and species diversity and investigated the influence of the corresponding communities of plants. Location Mongolia (Central Asia). Methods We observed 31,956 ants at seed baits at 11 study sites along a transect from steppe to Gobi desert for which we attained meteorological data (mean yearly precipitation: 197 to 84 mm). Extra sampling was conducted at sugar and protein baits and by the inspection of different microhabitats. Vegetation patterns of each plot were recorded. Statistical evaluation comprised ordination and correlation. Results We observed 15 species of ants at seed baits. Three faunal complexes of ants could be distinguished by detrended correspondence analysis (DCA): (1) in steppe baits were dominated by Formica‐ and Myrmica‐species, (2) in semi desert we found mostly species of Tetramorium, Myrmica, Proformica, Plagiolepis, and Leptothorax, and (3) in desert Cataglyphis aenescens and Messor aciculatus dominated, and Lasius was exclusively found there. Another 11 rare ant species were sampled by hand and at sugar baits. Altogether five ant species were new to the Mongolian fauna: Cardiocondyla koshewnikovi, Myrmica koreana, Myrmica pisarskii, Polyergus nigerrimus, and Proformica kaszabi. Assignment of taxa to functional groups showed that in steppe cold climate specialists dominated, in semi desert we found mainly opportunists, and in desert hot climate specialists. Several functional groups know from arid zones in other parts of the world were missing. In desert certain species were highly dominant. First DCA scores of ant‐ and plant‐communities were highly correlated with each other and with climatic parameters. While plant species diversity was positively correlated with increasing northern latitude, ant diversity and ant species richness were not correlated with latitude and responded neither to precipitation, nor to any other climatic parameter. Semi desert was a transition zone between steppe and desert, with high species richness. Ant genus composition of the ecotone overlapped with both other regions. However, beta diversity between pairs of plots within this zone was low, indicating a small‐scale mosaic pattern. Main conclusions The ant communities in the Mongolian steppe and desert zones were strongly influenced by low temperatures and differed in many aspects from the ant fauna in other arid ecosystems, especially in terms of species richness, diversity of feeding guilds, and richness of functional groups. 相似文献

Decomposition of Juglans regia leaves was studied in fine and coarse mesh bags in a permanent mountain stream in Oman. A rapid initial mass loss, attributed to leaching, was followed by a more gradual decline. Daily exponential decay rates (k) calculated over 32 days were 0.011 (fine mesh litter bags) and 0.014 (coarse mesh litter bags). The difference between bag types was not significant, suggesting limited impact of leaf‐shredding invertebrates. Ergosterol levels on leaves from fine mesh bags peaked at 0.3 mg g–1 AFDM after 16 days of stream exposure. During the experimental period, which followed the annual leaf fall, the concentration of aquatic hyphomycete conidia in the stream varied between 82 and 1362 l–1. Based on the morphology of conidia found in the water column or released from leaves, we identified 14 species of aquatic hyphomycetes. Tetracladium apiense was the most common taxon (62.2% of conidia in water column during the field experiment). Three other Tetracladium species contributed another 8%. Plating out leaf particles yielded common epiphytic taxa such as Alternaria sp., Aureobasidium pullulans and Phoma sp. The measured metrics of leaf decay in this desert stream fall within the range of values observed in temperate and tropical streams, with clear evidence for an early leaching phase, and no evidence of a strong impact of leaf shredders. The community of aquatic hyphomycetes appears impoverished. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) 相似文献

Human‐induced warming may increase the risk of local extinction for plant species with low tolerance of elevated temperatures. The Chihuahuan desert harbors the highest diversity of globose cacti in the world and most of them are at risk of extinction. Predictive models of climate change indicate an increase in summer temperature of 1–2°C by 2030 for this desert. Nevertheless, studies on the vulnerability of cacti species in early development phases to future climate change are scarce. We assessed the survival of three threatened cacti species from the Chihuahuan desert under induced warming. Open‐top chambers (OTCs) were used to simulate the effect of global warming on 2‐year seedlings of Echinocactus platyacanthus f. visnaga, Ferocactus histrix and Stenocactus coptonogonus. OTCs had higher temperature and lower humidity than control plots, and these elevated temperatures reduced seedling survival. Within the OTCs, no living individuals of any species were found after 105 days. Conversely, in the control plots, the three cacti species showed variable numbers of survivors after this period. Therefore the predicted global warming scenarios will greatly limit plant recruitment and the long‐term persistence of natural populations of Mexican endemic cacti species. 相似文献

The enantioselective hydrolysis of (R,S)-3-acetoxymethyl-7,8-difluoro-2,3-dihydro-4H-[1,4]benzoxazine (I) with enzymes was investigated. Optically active I and its hydrolyzate, 7,8-difluoro-2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxymethyl-4H-[1,4]benzoxazine (II), are the intermediates for preparing optically active ofloxacins, whose racemate is known to be an excellent antibacterial agent. Lipoprotein lipase from Pseudomonas fluorescens (LPL Amano 3) was found to predominantly hydrolyze (S)-I, giving (R)-I in 54% e.e. and (R)-II in 44% e.e. On the other hand, lipase from Candida cylindracea was found to predominantly hydrolyze (R)-I, giving (S)-I in 24% e.e. and (S)-II in 20% e.e. Since, the optical purities of I and II thus obtained were not particularly high, these optically active I and II were converted into 3-acetoxymethyl-7,8-difluoro-2,3-dihydro-4-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyl)-4H-[1,4]benzoxazine (IV). After recrystallizing IV from ethyl acetate-hexane, (S)- and (R)-II were obtained with high enantiomeric excess by removing the crystallized racemic IV and subsequently hydrolyzing the resulting optically active IV with alkali. The reduction of II afforded 7,8-difluoro-2,3-dihydro-3-methyl-4H-[1,4]benzoxazine (III), for which the optical purity was estimated to be >96%e.e. by HPLC analysis. (R)- and (S)-ofloxacin were prepared from (R)- and (S)-III with retention of their configuration. 相似文献

草地灌丛化现象在草地生态系统上广泛发生。放牧是人类利用草原的重要方式,通过分析不同载畜率下荒漠草原灌木种群及其邻近土壤养分含量的变化,可研究放牧干扰下不同灌木种群的耐牧特性,对深入了解荒漠草原植物群落演替机制具有重要意义。以荒漠草原灌木小叶锦鸡儿(Caragana microphylla)、半灌木驼绒藜(Ceratoides latens)及小半灌木冷蒿(Artemisia frigida)和木地肤(Kochia prostrata)(下称为“灌木”)为研究对象,探究不同载畜率下各个灌木种群的密度、高度、盖度及地上生物量(下称为“数量特征值”)及其邻近土壤养分含量。结果表明:冷蒿的数量特征值均随着载畜率的增加而降低,其他植物种群的数量特征值均在CK或LG区出现最大值,且不同灌木邻近土壤养分含量随着土壤深度的增加而下降(P < 0.05)。不同灌木邻近土壤全氮含量随着载畜率增加而下降;冷蒿邻近有机碳含量在CK区最高,小叶锦鸡儿邻近速效磷含量在HG区最高,其余灌木邻近有机碳、速效磷含量在LG区最高。灌木种群数量特征与土壤养分的关系为:土壤有机碳与冷蒿和驼绒藜的高度、盖度、地上生物量呈正相关,土壤速效磷与木地肤高度、地上生物量呈显著负相关。因此,载畜率均会对灌木植物种群的数量特征值及其邻近土壤养分含量产生影响。 相似文献

Four diverse disturbance types, namely, farmland, rotationally grazed grassland, overgrazed grassland and forbidden grazing
grassland, were identified in the Alashan desert region of Inner Mongolia. Rodents were sampled in April, July and October
in 2002 and 2003 using the trap-day method. Their spatial and temporal niches among the four disturbance types were assessed
using the Shannon-Wiener niche breadth index and the Pianka niche overlap index. The Shannon-Wiener niche breadth index was
the highest for Allactaga sibirica and Meriones meridianus (0.925 and 0.908, respectively), intermediate for Cricetulus eversmanni, Phodopus roborovskii and Citellus dauricus (0.789, 0.782 and 0.711, respectively), and lowest for Cardiocranius paradoxus (0.003). The Pianka niche overlap indices of six-paired species were the highest and varied from 0.900 to 1.000, suggesting
their spatial niche overlapped almost completely. Conversely, the spatial niche overlap index for Meriones unguiculatus, Cardiocranius paradoxus, and Salpingotus kozlovi was zero, thus indicating a complete absence of competition among them. In addition, the temporal niche breadth and overlap
indices varied greatly in relation to disturbance types and season. The level of temporal niche overlap in spring and autumn
was low while in summer it was high. For all disturbance types and for each season, the temporal niche overlap index of Meriones meridianus and Cricetulus barabansis was always highest but for Meriones unguiculatus and Salpingotus kozlovi always lowest.

Direct seeding is one of the most feasible techniques in practical, logistical, and economic terms for large-scale restoration of arid lands. However, several factors are still under study to enhance the outcomes of this restoration alternative, with species selection being a pivotal component. To evaluate differences in the performance of species in direct seeding, we selected five shrubs from the arid region known as “Monte Desert” in Argentina: Atriplex lampa, Hyalis argentea, Larrea divaricata, Neltuma flexuosa var. depressa, and Parkinsonia praecox. Direct seeding was carried out in furrows (4.0 m long, 0.5 m wide, and 0.4 m deep) with seeds previously treated to dormancy alleviation and with a density of 250 seeds/m2. We evaluated results in 12 furrows, where topsoil and hydrogel were deposited. The biological variables considered were seedling emergence, seedlings establishment regarding sowed seeds, and seedling success (survival in relation to emerged seedlings) after almost 3 years. The species with the highest emergence and establishment rates was A. lampa (50.16 and 23.75%, respectively). L. divaricata showed the lowest values for these variables (2.17 and 0.83%, respectively). On the other hand, the survival of N. flexuosa seedlings was >2× that of L. divaricata (65.02 vs. 30.36%). We discuss the notable differences in species performance and the possible role of furrows in the results. 相似文献

The three oligosaccharide octyl-S-glycosides Man-α1,6-Man-α1,4-GlcNH2-α1,S-Octyl (19), Man-α1,6-(Gal-α1,3)Man-α1,4-GlcNH2-α1,S-Octyl (27) and Man-α1,2-Man-α1,6-(Gal-α1,3)Man-α1,4-GlcNH2-α1,S-Octyl (37), related to the GPI anchor of Trypanosoma brucei were prepared by a stepwise and block-wise approach from octyl 2-azido-2-deoxy-3,6-di-O-benzyl-1-thio-α-d-glucopyranoside (8) and octyl 2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-(1,1,3,3-tetraisopropyl-1,3-disiloxane-1,3-diyl)-1-thio-α-d-mannopyransoside (9). Glucosamine derivative 8 was obtained from 1,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-2-azido-2-desoxy-β-d-glucopyranose (1) in five steps. Mannoside 9 was converted into the corresponding imidate 12 and coupled with 8 to give disaccharide octyl-S-glycoside 13 which was further mannosylated to afford trisaccharide 19 upon deprotection. Likewise, mannoside 9 was galactosylated, converted into the corresponding imidate and coupled with 8 to give trisaccharide 25. Mannosylation of the latter afforded tetrasaccharide 27 upon deprotection. Condensation of 25 with disaccharide imidate 35 gave, upon deprotection of the intermediates, the corresponding pentasaccharide octyl-S-glycoside 37. Saccharides 19, 27 and 37 are suitable substrates for studying the enzymatic glycosylation pattern of the GPI anchor of T. brucei. 相似文献
