A toluene-degrading microbial consortium was enriched directly in a BTEX-contaminated aquifer under sulfate-reducing conditions using in situ microcosms consisting of toluene-loaded activated carbon pellets. Degradation of toluene and concomitant sulfide production by the consortium was subsequently demonstrated in laboratory microcosms. The consortium was physiologically and phylogenetically characterized by isotope tracer experiments using nonlabeled toluene, [13 C]-α-toluene or [13 C7 ]-toluene as growth substrates. Cells incubated with [13 C]-α-toluene or [13 C7 ]-toluene incorporated 8–15 at.%13 C and 51–57 at.%13 C into total lipid fatty acids, respectively, indicating a lower specific incorporation of 13 C from [13 C7 ]-toluene. In order to identify the toluene-assimilating bacteria, the incorporation of carbon from both [13 C]-α-toluene and [13 C7 ]-toluene into rRNA was analyzed by stable isotope probing. Time and buoyant density-resolved 16S rRNA gene-based terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism profiles, combined with cloning and sequencing, revealed that an uncultured bacterium (99% sequence similarity) related to the genus Desulfocapsa was the main toluene-degrading organism in the consortium. The ratio of the respective terminal restriction fragments changed over time, indicating trophic interactions within this consortium. 相似文献

The natural abundance of 13 C and 15 N was measured in basidiocarps of at least 115 species in 88 genera of ectomycorrhizal, wood-decomposing and litter-decomposing fungi from Japan and Malaysia. The natural abundance of 13 C and 15 N was also measured in leaves, litter, soil and wood from three different sites. 15 N and 13 C were enriched in ectomycorrhizal and wood-decomposing fungi, respectively, relative to their substrates. Ectomycorrhizal and wood-decomposing fungi could be distinguished on the basis of their δ13 C and δ15 N signatures. Although there was high variability in the isotopic composition of fungi, the following isotope- enrichment factors (ε, mean±SD) of the fungi relative to substrates were observed:
εectomycorrhizal fungi/litter = 6.1±0.4‰15 N
εectomycorrhizal fungi/wood = 1.4±0.8‰13 C
εwood-decomposing fungi/wood = −0.6±0.7‰15 N
εwood-decomposing fungi/wood = 3.5±0.9‰13 C
The basis of isotope fractionation in C metabolism from wood to wood-decomposing fungus is discussed. 相似文献

Abstract. In the marine environment, the range of values of carbon isotope fractionation between particulate tissue of phytoplankton and inorganic carbon can be more than 20‰ (− 35‰ < δ13 C < − 14‰). This review considers the influence of seawater temperature, lipid content of phytoplanktonic cells, kinetic fractionation, and carbon pathway on δ13 C values observed at sea.
In order to study the contribution of carboxylases (RUBISCO and the β-carboxylases phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, phosphoenoplpyruvate carboxykinase and pyruvate carboxylase) to variations of particulate δ13 C values at sea, we present results obtained simultenously on carboxylase activities and δ13 C in various environmental conditions. The lowest δ13 C values are clearly associated with predominance of ribulose-1.5-bisphosphate carboxylase activity, but it was more difficult to explain the high δ13 C values. Different hypotheses are discussed. 相似文献

Acetate is the most important intermediate in anaerobic degradation of organic matter. The carbon isotope effects associated with the oxidation of acetate (ɛac ) were examined for four acetotrophic sulfur reducers, Desulfuromonas acetoxidans, Desulfuromonas thiophila, Desulfurella acetivorans , and Hippea maritima . During the consumption of acetate and sulfur, acetate was enriched in 13 C by 11.5 and 11.2‰ in Desulfuromonas acetoxidans and Desulfuromonas thiophila , respectively. By contrast, isotope fractionation in D. acetivorans and H. maritima resulted in isotope enrichment factors of ɛac =−6.3‰ and −8.4‰, respectively. These sulfur-reducing bacteria all metabolize acetate via the tricarboxylic acid cycle, but have different mechanisms for the initial activation of acetate. In Desulfuromonas acetoxidans , acetyl-CoA is formed by succinyl-CoA : acetate-CoA-transferase, and in D. acetivorans by acetate kinase and phosphate acetyltransferase. Hence, values of ɛac seem to be characteristic for the type of activation of acetate to acetyl-CoA in acetotrophic sulfur reducers. Summarizing ɛac -values in anaerobic acetotrophic microorganisms, it appears that isotope fractionation depends on the mechanism of acetate activation to acetyl-CoA, on the key enzyme of the acetate dissimilation pathway, and on the bioavailability of acetate, which all have to be considered when using δ13 C of acetate in environmental samples for diagnosis of the involved microbial populations. 相似文献

To assess and study the heterogeneity of δ13 C values for seep microorganisms of the Eel River Basin, we studied two principally different sample sets: sediments from push cores and artificial surfaces colonized over a 14 month in situ incubation. In a single sediment core, the δ13 C compositions of methane seep-associated microorganisms were measured and the relative activity of several metabolisms was determined using radiotracers. We observed a large range of archaeal δ13 C values (> 50‰) in this microbial community. The δ13 C of ANME-1 rods ranged from −24‰ to −87‰. The δ13 C of ANME-2 sarcina ranged from −18‰ to −75‰. Initial measurements of shell aggregates were as heavy as −19.5‰ with none observed to be lighter than −57‰. Subsequent measurements on shell aggregates trended lighter reaching values as 13 C-depleted as −73‰. The observed isotopic trends found for mixed aggregates were similar to those found for shell aggregates in that the initial measurements were often enriched and the subsequent analyses were more 13 C-depleted (with values as light as −56‰). The isotopic heterogeneity and trends observed within taxonomic groups suggest that ANME-1 and ANME-2 sarcina are capable of both methanogenesis and methanotrophy. In situ microbial growth was investigated by incubating a series of slides and silicon (Si) wafers for 14 months in seep sediment. The experiment showed ubiquitous growth of bacterial filaments (mean δ13 C = −38 ± 3‰), suggesting that this bacterial morphotype was capable of rapid colonization and growth. 相似文献

We evaluated diurnal and seasonal patterns of carbon isotope composition of leaf dark-respired CO2 ( δ 13 Cl ) in the C3 perennial shrub velvet mesquite ( Prosopis velutina ) across flood plain and upland savanna ecosystems in the south-western USA. δ 13 Cl of darkened leaves increased to maximum values late during daytime periods and declined gradually over night-time periods to minimum values at pre-dawn. The magnitude of the diurnal shift in δ 13 Cl was strongly influenced by seasonal and habitat-related differences in soil water availability and leaf surface vapour pressure deficit. δ 13 Cl and the cumulative flux-weighted δ 13 C value of photosynthates were positively correlated, suggesting that progressive 13 C enrichment of the CO2 evolved by darkened leaves during the daytime mainly resulted from short-term changes in photosynthetic 13 C discrimination and associated shifts in the δ 13 C signature of primary respiratory substrates. The 13 C enrichment of dark-respired CO2 relative to photosynthates across habitats and seasons was 4 to 6‰ at the end of the daytime period (1800 h), but progressively declined to 0‰ by pre-dawn (0300 h). The origin of night-time and daytime variations in δ 13 Cl is discussed in terms of the carbon source(s) feeding respiration and the drought-induced changes in carbon metabolism. 相似文献

In the present study, profiles of stable isotope composition were characterized for two species with partially migratory populations in rivers along the latitudinal gradient of Patagonia, brown trout Salmo trutta and rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss . The effects of factors ( e.g. ontogeny of fishes, location, species and fasting) that may influence the stable isotope analysis (SIA) were evaluated, as was SIA evaluated as a tool to assign individual fish to their corresponding ecotype. Anadromous fishes exhibited enriched δ15 N (15·2 ± 1·0‰; mean ± s . d .) and δ13 C (−19·2 ± 1·3‰) relative to resident fishes'δ15 N (8·8 ± 1·1‰) and δ13 C (−23·2 ± 2·5‰). For both species, the difference in δ15 N was larger between resident (range 6·8–10·7‰) and anadromous (range 14·3–17·8‰) fishes than that in δ13 C. Values of δ13 C, while not as dramatically contrasting in rainbow trout, provided a powerful anadromy marker for brown trout in the region. Increases were found in both δ15 N and δ13 C during the spawning migration of anadromous rainbow trout, most likely due to fasting. Differences in stable isotopes between location, size and species were found, suggesting different stable isotopes base levels in freshwater environments and different trophic levels and feeding location of anadromous populations. The SIA was demonstrated as a powerful tool for ecotype discrimination in Patagonian Rivers, overriding any effect of sampling location, size or species. 相似文献

1. Applying Keeling plot techniques to derive δ13 C of respiratory input in a closed non-equilibrated chamber can lead to large errors because steady-state diffusion rules are violated in a non-steady-state environment. To avoid these errors, respiratory δ13 C can be derived using equilibrated closed chambers.
2. We introduce a new method to obtain stem respired CO2 δ13 C (δst - r ) with closed equilibrated stem chambers (E-SC). We present a theoretical model describing the equilibration process, test the model against field data and find excellent agreement. The method is further tested by comparing it with closed non-equilibrated stem chambers (NE-SC); we found no difference between these methods.
3. Our theoretical model to describe CO2 diffusion from the respiratory pool into the chamber and the equation to derive the δ13 C of the efflux are general. They could be applied to other ecosystem components (e.g. soils).
4. Our method is easy to implement, cost effective, minimizes sources of error and allows for rigorous leak detection. One major limitation is its inability to detect rapid change; the equilibration process requires 15 ± 2 h. A second limitation is that it cannot be used for species that produce abundant pitch at sites of stem wounding (e.g. Pseudotsuga menziesii ).
5. Investigating δ13 C of CO2 respired by different ecosystem components is necessary to interpret δ13 C of ecosystem respiration. This parameter has major implications with respect to global carbon cycle science. 相似文献

1. Increased water motion is expected to reduce boundary layer diffusion resistance of autotrophs, thereby enabling greater isotopic discrimination against 13 C such that lower δ13 C values (ratio of 13 C : 12 C) should ensue. A field test of this hypothesis was undertaken by sampling benthic algae in streams of differing current speed.
2. Contrary to the expected negative relationship between δ13 C and water motion, filamentous benthic algae were found to exhibit higher δ13 C values in rapid water.
3. Under conditions of low current in the streams studied, concentrations of dissolved organic carbon as measured by water colour are elevated through the microbial decomposition of largely terrestrial organic matter. Photoassimilation of this respired carbon by benthic filamentous algae generates13 C‐depletion and lower δ13 C values, and appears to be substantial enough in the streams used in the present study to override the competing influence of water motion on boundary layer thickness. 相似文献

Biodegradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol in the presence of volatile organic compounds in soils under different vegetation types 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
It has been suggested that monoterpenes emitted within the soil profile, either by roots or by decaying biomass, may enhance the biodegradation of organic pollutants. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of biogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on the catabolism of 2,4-dichlorophenol in soils. Soils were collected from areas surrounding monoterpene (woodland) and nonmonoterpene (grassland)-emitting vegetation types. Soils were spiked with [UL-14 C] 2,4-dichlorophenol at 10 mg kg−1 and amended with α-pinene, p -cymene or a mix of monoterpenes (α-pinene, limonene and p -cymene in 1 : 1 : 1 ratio). The effects of monoterpene addition on the catabolism of [UL-14 C] 2,4-dichlorophenol to 14 CO2 by indigenous soil microbial communities were assessed in freshly spiked and 4-week-aged soils. It was found that aged woodland soils exhibited a higher level of [UL-14 C] 2,4-dichlorophenol degradation, which was subsequently enhanced by the addition of monoterpenes ( P <0.001), with the VOC mix and α-pinene amendments showing increased [UL-14 C] 2,4-dichlorophenol catabolism. This study supports claims that the addition of biogenic VOCs to soils enhances the degradation of xenobiotic contaminants. 相似文献

Tracing carbon and oxygen isotope signals from newly assimilated sugars in the leaves to the tree-ring archive 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The analysis of δ 13 C and δ 18 O in tree-ring archives offers retrospective insights into environmental conditions and ecophysiological processes. While photosynthetic carbon isotope discrimination and evaporative oxygen isotope enrichment are well understood, we lack information on how the isotope signal is altered by downstream metabolic processes.
In Pinus sylvestris , we traced the isotopic signals from their origin in the leaf water ( δ18 O) or the newly assimilated carbon ( δ 13 C), via phloem sugars to the tree-ring, over a time-scale that ranges from hours to a growing season.
Seasonally, variable13 C enrichment of sugars related to phloem loading and transport did lead to uncoupling between δ 13 C in the tree-ring, and the c i / c a ratio at the leaf level. In contrast, the oxygen isotope signal was transferred from the leaf water to the tree-ring with an expected enrichment of 27‰, with time-lags of approximately 2 weeks and with a 40% exchange between organic oxygen and xylem water oxygen during cellulose synthesis.
This integrated overview of the fate of carbon and oxygen isotope signals within the model tree species P. sylvestris provides a novel physiological basis for the interpretation of δ13 C and δ 18 O in tree-ring ecology. 相似文献

Stable carbon isotope composition (δ13 C) of dry matter has been widely investigated as a selection tool in cereal breeding programmes. However, reports on the possibilities of using stable oxygen isotope composition (δ18 O) as a yield predictor are very scarce and only in the absence of water stress. Indeed, it remains to be tested whether changes in phenology and stomatal conductance in response to water stress overrule the use of either δ13 C or δ18 O when water is limited. To answer this question, a set of 24 genotypes of bread wheat ( Triticum aestivum ) were assayed in two trials with different levels of deficit irrigation and a third trial under rainfed conditions in a Mediterranean climate (northwest Syria). Grain yield (GY) and phenology (duration from planting to anthesis and from anthesis to maturity) were recorded, and the δ13 C and δ18 O of grains were analysed to assess their suitability as GY predictors. Both δ13 C and δ18 O showed higher broad-sense heritabilities ( H 2 ) than GY. Genotype means of GY across trials were negatively correlated with δ13 C, as previously reported, but not with δ18 O. Both isotopes were correlated with grain filling duration, whereas δ18 O was also strongly affected by crop duration from planting to anthesis. We concluded that δ18 O of grains is not a proper physiological trait to breed for suboptimal water conditions, as its variability is almost entirely determined by crop phenology. In contrast, δ13 C of grains, despite being also affected by phenology, still provides complementary information associated with GY. 相似文献

Marine pelagic redoxclines are zones of high dark CO2 fixation rates, which can correspond up to 30% of the surface primary production. However, despite this significant contribution to the pelagic carbon cycle, the identity of most chemolithoautotrophic organisms is still unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to directly link the dark CO2 fixation capacity of a pelagic redoxcline in the central Baltic Sea (Landsort Deep) with the identity of the main chemolithoautotrophs involved. Our approach was based on the analysis of natural carbon isotope signatures in fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) and on measurements of CO2 incorporation in 13 C-bicarbonate pulse experiments. The incorporation of 13 C into chemolithoautotrophic cells was investigated by rRNA-based stable isotope probing (RNA-SIP) and FAME analysis after incubation for 24 and 72 h under in situ conditions. Our results demonstrated that fatty acids indicative of Proteobacteria were significantly enriched in 13 C slightly below the chemocline. RNA-SIP analyses revealed that two different Gammaproteobacteria and three closely related Epsilonproteobacteria of the Sulfurimonas cluster were active dark CO2 -fixing microorganisms, with a time-dependent community shift between these groups. Labelling of Archaea was not detectable, but after 72 h of incubation the 13 C-label had been transferred to a potentially bacterivorous ciliate related to Euplotes sp. Thus, RNA-SIP provided direct evidence for the contribution of chemolithoautotrophic production to the microbial food web in this marine pelagic redoxcline, emphasizing the importance of dark CO2 -fixing Proteobacteria within this habitat. 相似文献

Using a combined method of pulse-labelling trees and analysing detailed distribution of 13 C tracer within tree rings, we studied how photo-assimilates incorporated on a given day are then distributed in a tree ring. A branch of a 4-year-old Cryptomeria japonica D.Don tree growing in Tsukuba, Japan was pulse-labelled with non-radioactive 13 CO2 on two occasions: 29 May 2001 and 18 September 2001. Two discs were cut from the stem on 4 March 2002, one immediately under and the other 0.5 m below the branch and put through high-resolution δ 13 C analysis. δ 13 C peaks were observed in both the earlywood and latewood of the concerned tree ring, corresponding to each pulse-labelling date. The earlywood peaks was broader than the latewood peaks, possibly reflecting seasonal variation of the width of wood developing zone. Half-widths of the peaks were measured and used as indicators for the potential time resolution of tree-ring isotope analysis. The half-widths of the peaks indicated a time resolution no finer than 8.7–28 and 33–42 d in the early and latewood, respectively. Holocellulose extraction yielded only a slight change to the shape of the δ 13 C peaks. 13 C tracer pulse-labelled in May and September reached tangentially different locations in the lower disc, suggesting a seasonal change in the pathway of carbohydrates. Local consumption of spring assimilates and long-distance downward transport of autumn assimilates were also suggested. 相似文献

Diet-tissue isotopic fractionation of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) isotopes in short- and longer-term diet integrators of diet ( i. e. , blood serum and red cells), that involve non-invasive sampling techniques was examined using three species of phocid seals (harbor seals, gray seals, and harp seals) fed a known diet. Variability in diet-tissue fractionation values within and between species was also scrutinized to determine the legitimacy of using values obtained from one species to explore trophic positions and diets of other related species. All captive seals raised on a constant diet had tissues enriched in 13 C and 15 N relative to their diet. Diet-tissue isotopic fractionation values were generally consistent among conspecifics and among phocid species for a given tissue. Trophic isotopic enrichment in 13 C was significantly higher in red blood cells (+1.5%±) than in blood serum (+0.8%±), whereas the reverse was observed for nitrogen isotopes (+1.7%± in red cells vs . +3.1%± in serum). However, 13 C-depleted lipids were not extracted from blood tissues in this study. This results in a downward bias in the diet-tissue fractionation factors for carbon for both red cells and blood serum, particularly the latter because of their significantly higher lipid contents ( ± SD = 14.6 ± 2.3%; n = 20; red blood cells 3.8 ± 0.9%±; n = 50, muscle 7.7 ± 2.0; n = 21) in marine mammals. 相似文献

Correlations between net primary productivity and foliar carbon isotope ratio across a Tibetan ecosystem transect 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Warming climate could affect leaf-level carbon isotope composition (δ13 C) through variations in photosynthetic gas exchange. However, it is still unclear to what extent variations in foliar δ13 C can be used to detect changes in net primary productivity (NPP) because leaf physiology is only one of many determinants of stand productivity. We aim to examine how well site-mean foliar δ13 C and stand NPP co-vary across large resource gradients using data obtained from the Tibetan Alpine Vegetation Transects (1900–4900 m, TAVT). The TAVT data indicated a robust negative correlation between foliar δ13 C and NPP across ecosystems (NPP=−2.7224δ13 C-67.738, r2 =0.60, p<0.001). The mean foliar δ13 C decreased with increasing annual precipitation and its covariation with mean temperature and soil organic carbon and nitrogen contents. The results were further confirmed by global literature data. Pooled δ13 C data from global literature and this study explained 60% of variations in annual NPP both from TAVT-measures and MODIS-estimates across 67 sites. Our results appear to support a conceptual model relating foliar δ13 C and nitrogen concentration (Nmass ) to NPP, suggesting that: 1) there is a general (negative) relationship between δ13 C and NPP across different water availability conditions; 2) in water-limited conditions, water availability has greater effects on NPP than Nmass ; 3) when water is not limiting, NPP increases with increasing Nmass . 相似文献

We developed and applied an ecosystem-scale model that calculated leaf CO2 assimilation, stomatal conductance, chloroplast CO2 concentration and the carbon isotope composition of carbohydrate formed during photosynthesis separately for sunlit and shaded leaves within multiple canopy layers. The ecosystem photosynthesis model was validated by comparison to leaf-level gas exchange measurements and estimates of ecosystem-scale photosynthesis from eddy covariance measurements made in a coastal Douglas-fir forest on Vancouver Island. A good agreement was also observed between modelled and measured δ 13 C values of ecosystem-respired CO2 ( δ R ). The modelled δ R values showed strong responses to variation in photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD), air temperature, vapour pressure deficit (VPD) and available soil moisture in a manner consistent with leaf-level studies of photosynthetic 13 C discrimination. Sensitivity tests were conducted to evaluate the effect of (1) changes in the lag between the time of CO2 fixation and the conversion of organic matter back to CO2 ; (2) shifts in the proportion of autotrophic and heterotrophic respiration; (3) isotope fractionation during respiration; and (4) environmentally induced changes in mesophyll conductance, on modelled δ R values. Our results indicated that δ R is a good proxy for canopy-level C c / C a and 13 C discrimination during photosynthetic gas exchange, and therefore has several applications in ecosystem physiology. 相似文献

1. The δ13 C and δ15 N signatures of zooplankton vary with dissolved organic carbon (DOC), but inconsistent and limited taxonomic resolution of previous studies have masked differences that may exist among orders, genera or species and are attributable to dietary and/or habitat differences. Here we investigate differences among the isotopic signatures of five zooplankton taxa ( Daphnia , Holopedium , large Calanoida, small Calanoida and Cyclopoida) in Precambrian shield lakes with a sixfold range of DOC concentration.
2. δ13 C signatures of Daphnia , small calanoids and large calanoids became more depleted with increasing lake DOC, whereas Holopedium and cyclopoid δ13 C became enriched with increasing DOC concentration.
3. The variability of δ13 C and δ15 N isotopic signatures among zooplankton groups was reduced in high-DOC, compared to low-DOC lakes, especially for δ13 C. Differences in δ13 C and POM-corrected δ15 N accounted for up to 33.7% and 19.5% of the variance, respectively, among lakes of varying DOC concentration.
4. The narrow range of signatures found in higher DOC lakes suggests that different taxa have similar food sources and/or habitats. In contrast, the wide range of signatures in low-DOC lakes suggests that different taxa are exploiting different food sources and/or habitats. Together with the variable trends in zooplankton isotopic signatures along our DOC gradient, these results suggest that food web dynamics within the zooplankton community of temperate lakes will change as climate and lake DOC concentrations change. 相似文献

Abstract: Metabolism of [1-13 C]glucose was monitored in superfused cerebral cortex slice preparations from 1-, 2-, and 5-week-old rats using 1 H-observed/13 C-edited (1 H{13 C}) NMR spectroscopy. The rate of label incorporation into glutamate C-4 did not differ among the three age groups: 0.52–0.67% of total 1 H NMR-detected glutamate/min. This was rather unexpected, as oxygen uptake proceeded at 1.1 ± 0.1, 1.9 ± 0.1, and 2.0 ± 0.1 µmol/min/g wet weight in brain slices prepared from 1-, 2-, and 5-week-old animals, respectively. Steady-state glutamate C-4 fractional enrichments in the slice preparations were ∼23% in all age groups. In the acid extracts of slices glutamate C-4 enrichments were smaller, however, in 1- and 2-week-old (17.8 ± 1.7 and 16.8 ± 0.8%, respectively) than in 5-week-old rats (22.7 ± 0.7%) after 75 min of incubation with 5 m M [1-13 C]glucose. We add a new assignment to the 1 H{13 C} NMR spectroscopy, as acetate C-2 was detected in slice preparations from 5-week-old animals. In the acid extracts of slice preparations acetate C-2 was labeled by ∼30% in 5-week-old rats but by 15% in both 1- and 2-week-old animals, showing that the turnover rate was increased in 5-week-old animals. In the extracts 3–4% of the C-6 of N -acetyl-aspartate (NAA; CH3 of the acetyl group) contained label as determined by both NMR and mass spectrometry, which indicated that there was no significant labeling to other carbons in NAA. NAA accumulated label from [1-13 C]glucose but not from [2-13 C]acetate, and the rate of label incorporation increased by threefold on cerebral maturation. 相似文献

Correlations Between Foliar Stable Carbon Isotope Composition and Environmental Factors in Desert Plant Reaumuria soongorica (Pall.) Maxim. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Leaves of 407 individuals of Reaumuria soongorica (Pall.) Maxim. collected from the major distribution areas were measured to investigate the distribution characteristics of the stable carbon isotope in this desert plant, as well as correlations between δ^13C values and environmental factors. Results showed that δ^13C values in R. soongorica ranged from -22.77‰ to -29.85‰ and that the mean δ^13C value (-26.52‰) was higher than a previously reported δ^13C value for a different desert ecosystem. This indicates that R. soongorica belongs to the C3 photosynthetic pathway and has higher water use efficiency than other species. The correlations between δ^13C values and environmental factors demonstrated that the foliar δ^13C values in R. soongorica increased significantly with decreasing mean annual precipitation and mean relative humidity, and decreased with decreasing duration of sunshine and evaporation. The spatial distribution trend of δ^13C values in R. soongorica was not obvious and there was no significant correlation between the δ^13C values and mean annual temperature. We conclude that different distribution trends in δ^13C values for R. soongorica were likely caused by stomatal limitation rather than by nutrient-related changes in photosynthetic efficiency and that precipitation played an important role in the wide distribution range of R. soongorica. This pattern of δ^13C values for R. soongorica reinforced that it is a super-xerophil in terms of its adaptive strategies to a desert environment. 相似文献
