Factors Influencing the Induction and Viability of Somatic Embryos of Quercus Robur L.

To induce somatic embryogenesis in Quercus robur L. immature zygotic embryos at different developmental stages were collected in weekly intervals from June until September in three consecutive years from four open pollinated trees at two Vienna sites. Acorns were surface sterilised and cultured firstly on P24 medium with 5μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 0.5 μM 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) or on hormone-free P24 medium and secondly on P24 medium with 0.9 μM BAP. The formation of white-yellow globular structures of somatic embryos started during the fourth week after the induction treatment. High induction frequencies of 30 - 80 % were achieved on 2,4-D/BAP medium, whereas rates on hormone-free medium were below 20 %. The initiation of somatic embryogenesis was favoured in the heartshaped and early cotyledonary stage of the zygotic embryo in all three years and lasted until the acorns reached maximum size in August.

城市化地区河岸带植被特征及其与河岸硬度的关系——以晋江市为例

确立了滨河河道硬度与滨河土地硬度两个指标,用以研究城市化地区河岸带的植物构成、多样性与均匀度、优势植物等特征与河岸硬度的关系。选定晋江市都市区12条主要河流作为研究对象,通过样地调查收集数据,并采用相应指数进行数据处理分析,结果表明:(1)调查河流的河岸带植被物种共计70科143属159种,其中乔木20科30属41种,灌木15科15属20种,草本35科98属98种,草本居主导地位,河流间种类分布不均衡;(2)河岸带植物乔灌草区系均以广义热带性成分居多,其次为世界性成分、温带性成分,无中国特有分布类型,乔木中广义热带成分占绝对主导,直观反映地带性特征,灌木与草本中的温带成分多于乔木中的温带成分,类型趋于多元,种类更丰富;(3)从河岸植被优势植物构成来看,主要优势乔木与灌木基本为本土植物,而主要草本中外来植物入侵严重,对地带性植物景观的指示显然不及乔木与灌木;(4)从河岸植被的人工美学属性来看,灌木优势植物中园林观赏植物的种类数显著多于乔木、草本优势植物,反映出晋江人工审美主导的滨河景观空间主要改变与塑造了灌木层植被景观;(5)从河岸植物的人居需求属性来看,龙眼、杨桃等多见于庭院林、水岸林的水果树种也在河岸植被中频繁出现,反映出人口密集区由于对植物生产用途的重视而对河岸植被产生的影响;(6)滨河土地硬度与河道硬度对河岸带灌木植物的影响最强烈,二者均对河岸带植物多样性造成威胁,且前者具有更大的影响力,而后者直接影响了河岸植物的分布形态,出于生产与审美目的的人为干扰对河岸带植物优势种的影响力随滨河硬度的增加而加强,低滨河硬度有助留存原生植被群落;(7)天然弯曲的河流形态对河流植被特征具有积极影响,有助于保留更多本土植被类型,并能在某种程度上丰富乔灌草的植物种类,但这种缓和作用无法根本扭转河岸硬化对植物多样性的胁迫影响。研究表明,城市化地区河流的岸带植被特征与沿线人为干扰类型和强度密切相关,恢复与塑造河岸生态景观要以乡土植被为主,通过乔木景观塑造地带性景观,并以灌木与草本丰富植被景观。     

北京山区河岸带植物群落种-面积关系

种-面积关系是群落生态学的基本问题之一,是了解植物群落结构的重要途径。为摸清北京山区河流河岸带植物群落调查最小样方面积,在北京市怀柔区怀九河河岸带沿线,采用基于河岸带立地条件逐步扩大样地面积的方法布设50个80m长样地,调查计算并拟合不同类型河岸带所需的最小样地面积。研究结果表明:北京市怀柔区怀九河河岸带植物种数255种,隶属于70科185属。通过聚类分析将怀九河河岸带分为自然河岸带、近自然河岸带、人工岸坡乔灌草河岸带、人工岸坡观赏性乔灌草河岸带、人工岸坡疏乔灌草干砌石河岸带和人工岸坡浆砌石河岸带6种类型。根据赤池信息量准则AIC可知自然河岸带、近自然河岸带、人工岸坡乔灌草河岸带和人工岸坡疏乔灌草干砌石河岸带优先选取S=c-ae~(-bA),人工岸坡观赏性乔灌草河岸带优先选取S=aA/(1+bA),人工岸坡浆砌石河岸带优先选取S=c/(1+ae~(-bA))。满足相同比例植物种调查,不同类型河岸带所需最小样地面积存在明显差异,当满足河岸带植物调查80%植物种时,人工岸坡浆砌石河岸带(84m~2)和自然河岸带(217m~2)所需样地面积较小,其次是人工岸坡疏乔灌草干砌石河岸带(362m~2),近自然河岸带(450m~2)和人工岸坡乔灌草河岸带(460m~2)所需样地面积相似,而人工岸坡观赏性乔灌草河岸带所需样地面积最大为571m~2。所得出的河岸带植物调查最小样地面积对于河岸带生物多样性保护和指导河岸带生态修复具有重要意义。     

上海居住区植物多样性的均质化

居住区植被是我国城市植被的重要组成体,其多样性的分布格局将影响城市植被的多样性.通过对上海市中心、市郊和郊县居住区的植被调查,比较了城乡梯度上居住区绿化观赏植物、杂草和自生逃逸植物的多样性和物种组成.结果表明：城乡梯度上,绿化观赏植物和杂草的丰富度不存在显著差异,而市郊自生逃逸植物的丰富度最高;不同城乡梯度居住区中,绿化观赏植物、杂草和自生逃逸植物的物种组成相似,其中40％～50％的物种为共有种.上海城镇居住区植物均质化的主要原因是几近雷同的居住区建造风格和绿化形式,制约了绿化植物的使用和异质生境的营造.     

北京市域乡村人居林树冠覆盖及其区域差异分析

乡村人居林建设是落实新农村建设、实施乡村振兴战略和振兴农村生态文明的重要举措。以北京市为对象,基于北京市域2017年0.5m分辨率航空影像与2017年1：10万土地利用（LUCC）图等基础资源,在全市范围内随机选择260个行政村,从研究区域内乡村人居林树冠覆盖率、功能类型、斑块等级和景观格局特征四个层面展开区域差异特征分析。研究结果显示,北京市整体乡村人居林树冠覆盖率为18.32%,其中平原区和山区分别为18.40%和17.83%。在平原区范围内,乡村人居林树冠覆盖率呈近郊区（21.70%） > 远郊区（13.87%） > 延庆盆地区域（16.34%）;在山区内部,乡村人居林树冠覆盖率呈现低山区（24.45%） > 浅山区（16.55%） > 深山区（12.41%）,太行山区（20.98%） > 燕山区（14.11%）。在乡村人居林功能类型分布中,片林为各分区最主要类型,在平原区和山区中分别占比55.75%和57.15%。在斑块等级结构方面,乡村人居林斑块总体呈现小而分散的特点,其中小斑块数目在区域中占比达93.03%,而各等级斑块在规模大小方面呈现\"平分秋色\"的特点。就景观格局指数特点而言,平原区内近郊区,山区内的深山区和燕山区乡村人居林斑块复杂程度、受人为干扰强度和多样性更高。综上特征,究其动因,农村居民点聚落规模、集聚形式和建设类型以及森林资源本底是影响乡村人居林建设条件的重要原因。     

Soil conditions and regeneration after clear felling of a Pinus sylvestris L. stand in a nitrogen experiment,Central Sweden

Forest N fertilization is a common practice in areas of Sweden that are not affected by high levels of N deposition. The environmental consequences of high N input to closed forests are fairly well known, but the long-term effects following clear-felling are a lot less well known. Thus, residual effects on soil and planted seedlings of previous N additions at an experimental N gradient 11 years after clear-felling were studied at a naturally nutrient-poor forest site in central Sweden. The experimental N gradient had been established by three repeated applications (in 1967, 1974 and 1981) of six dosages of NH₄NO₃ with increments of 120 kg N ha^–1. Thus, in total, the applied N dose ranged between 0 and 1800 kg N ha^–1. The study examined extractable base cations and P, soil pH, total-N, total-C, net N-mineralization and potential nitrification in four soil horizons (the humus layer, and 0–5, 5–10 and 10–20 cm in the mineral soil). We also measured the survival and growth of planted Pinus sylvestris L. seedlings. The applied N had no effect on the amounts of extractable-P or base cations in the soil. The soil pH decreased with increasing N dose in the deeper soil horizons, while in the humus the pH showed a weak but statistically significant increase due to the N application. Both total-C and total-N increased as a result of the N application, while the C/N ratio decreased. In the humus layer and the uppermost mineral soil layer NH₄ ⁺ was the major inorganic N source, in contrast to the lowest mineral soil horizon where NO₃ ^– dominated. For most of the studied horizons, there was a positive linear relationship between applied N dose and amount of inorganic N. Both net N-mineralization and potential nitrification showed increases with increasing N dose. As for the plants, no difference in survival or growth was found between the different N treatments. For doses generally applied in forest fertilization no significant differences in any of the studied properties were found.     

The effect of temperature on the growth,development and survival of Macropetasma africanus (Balss) (Penaeoidea:Penaeidae) larvae reared in the laboratory

Macropetasma africanus (Balss) has been successfully spawned and its larvae reared under controlled laboratory conditions. The relationship between egg number (E) and female total length (L) was E = 18.59 L^2.11. An experiment was designed to test the effect of temperature on larval development, survival and growth. Temperature effected larval development time, from 13–15 days at 25°C, to 25 days at 15°C (nauplius 1 to post-larva). Mortality was low for the naupliar stages at 25, 22 and 18°C, while at 15°C only 52% of the larvae reached nauplius 6. Mortality was highest from nauplius 6 to protozoea 1 (17, 21, and 18% at 25, 22, and 18°C, respectively), but decreased considerably for all temperatures once the mysis stage was reached. Overall survival rates from nauplius 1 to post-larva decreased with decreasing temperature (65, 54, 48, and 39% at 25, 22, 18, and 15°C respectively). Temperature also significantly affected larval growth. At 25°C mean total length was significantly (P < 0.05) larger than at 15°C (protozoea 2 to post-larva), while from protozoea 3 to post-larva total length differences were significantly different (P < 0.05) between 18 and 25°C. M. africanus has a major spawning peak in summer, suggesting that there may be a selective advantage to reproducing during the warmer months.     

典型阔叶红松林主要树种叶性状的垂直变异及经济策略

分析不同树种叶片性状的变化有助于了解植物群落结构。该文通过对典型阔叶红松(Pinus koraiensis)林15种阔叶树种的比叶质量、叶片厚度、叶干物质含量、叶绿素含量指数、叶片碳、氮、磷含量的测定, 分析了冠层高度对叶性状及叶性状间相关关系的影响。结果表明, 水曲柳(Fraxinus mandshurica)和大青杨(Populus ussuriensis)上层的比叶质量显著大于下层, 而其他树种冠层间的比叶质量无显著变化; 叶绿素含量指数在白桦(Betula platyphylla)和春榆(Ulmus japonica)冠层间的分布分别为上层显著大于下层和上层显著大于中层; 单位质量氮含量在水曲柳的中层显著大于上层。叶片性状间存在着广泛的相关性, 比叶质量与叶片厚度、干物质含量在三层间均呈显著正相关关系, 而有些性状, 只在一或二个冠层中存在一定的相关性。山杨(Populus davidiana)和大青杨的叶片倾向于选择光合能力较低、营养浓度较低、呼吸速率较慢的一端, 而黄檗(Phellodendron amurense)和山槐(Maackia amurensis)叶片更倾向于光合能力强、营养物质浓度高的一端。不同树种对光照响应的差异可能会改变不同冠层中叶片的形态和化学性状, 从而有助于群落构建和物种共存。     

不同食物对甜菜夜蛾生长发育参数的影响

选择上海地区近年甜菜夜蛾Spodoptera exigua(Hübner)发生比较严重的甘蓝、豇豆、大葱、芦笋4种寄主植物,在温度(27±1)℃,相对湿度70%±5%,光照L:D=14:10的条件下研究了不同寄主植物对甜菜夜蛾发育特征的影响。结果表明,不同寄主植物饲喂甜菜夜蛾,甜菜夜蛾幼虫发育历期、存活率、蛹重、成虫寿命、净生殖力和内禀增长率等参数在寄主植物间有显著差异。用甘蓝饲喂的甜菜夜蛾雌虫产卵量明显高于取食大葱和芦笋的。同样,取食甘蓝的甜菜夜蛾蛹重、净生殖力和种群内禀增长率等参数明显高于取食大葱和芦笋的,说明甘蓝与其他寄主植物相比提供了较好质量的食物。     

2008特大冰冻灾害后大明山常绿阔叶林林冠结构动态

林冠结构是研究森林生态系统众多关键生态功能和过程的重要参数,常绿阔叶林是亚热带林区具有代表性的森林类型,对其林冠结构及动态特征的研究还很不深入。在广西大明山中山区选择了一个斜坡水平长200 m、宽160 m的典型坡面,在整个坡面建立了80个20 m×20 m的样地,将样地均匀分为5个坡段,每个坡段包含16个连续的样地,在2009—2012年的生长季测定了林冠高度(CH)、林冠体积(CV)、林冠覆盖度(CC)、林冠上/下冠盖比(HLr)和林冠叶面积指数(LAI),分析了各林冠结构指标的坡位及年际动态,揭示了亚热带常绿阔叶林的林冠结构特征及短期动态规律。研究结果表明,大明山常绿阔叶林林冠结构的一般特征是:平均CH(12.09±0.05)m,平均CV(2642.51±278.33)m~3(每400 m~2样地),平均CC(59.90±3.29)%,平均HLr2.48±0.23,平均LAI 2.00±0.06。大明山常绿阔叶林的林冠结构存在多层性,上层林冠覆盖度平均为42.20%,中层为30.35%,下层为18.05%。大明山常绿阔叶林的林冠结构存在坡面和年际差异,坡面变异系数为CV(29.84%—55.89%)HLr(32.90%—53.52%)LAI(22.48%—43.89%)CC(16.61%—25.74%)CH(8.26%—12.77%);年际变异系数为HLr(47.33%—57.00%)CV(39.70%—49.06%)LAI(21.58%—48.13%)CC(20.35%—24.15%)CH(9.19%—12.59%),表明CH有较强的稳定性。林冠LAI存在明显的坡面尺度效应,即向下顺坡每滑动100 m冠层LAI升高0.34。坡位对CH、HLr有显著(P=0.022)和极显著(P0.001)影响;年份对HLr有显著影响(P=0.013),对CV和CC有极显著影响(P0.001);坡位×年份对CV和LAI的交互作用显著(P=0.016,P=0.017)。回归分析发现树冠面积与林木胸径呈极显著的线性关系。此研究结果表明大明山常绿阔叶林冠层高度较低、林冠体积较小、林冠覆盖度不高、上/下冠盖比和叶面积指数偏小,这与研究区域的海拔较高(934—1223 m),土层浅薄(30—45 cm)以及经常受到冰冻灾害(特别是2008年的特大冰冻灾害)的影响有关,是山地常绿阔叶林树冠结构与山地环境条件长期适应的结果。
