川西亚高山林线岷江冷杉和红杉对气候变化的响应

为揭示川西亚高山林线优势树种岷江冷杉（Abies fargesii var.faxoniana）和红杉（Larix potaninii）径向生长对气候变化的响应差异。通过树木年轮生态学的方法,研究了岷江冷杉和红杉径向生长与年均温的分异现象、生长衰退以及应对严重干旱事件的抵抗力和恢复力稳定性,并结合限制岷江冷杉和红杉径向生长的主要气候因素进行了分析。结果表明：（1）温度是限制林线岷江冷杉径向生长的主要气候因素,而限制红杉径向生长的主要气候因素是降水;（2）岷江冷杉的径向生长与年平均温度的变化趋势一致,红杉在20世纪90年代后径向生长呈现出下降的趋势,与年均温的升高出现分异;（3）1800-2019年间,岷江冷杉出现生长衰退2次,红杉出现生长衰退5次,相同的时间内,红杉的衰退频率高于岷江冷杉;（4）岷江冷杉对严重干旱事件的恢复力相比升温前有所增强,抵抗力相比升温前下降明显,红杉对严重干旱事件的抵抗力和恢复力相比升温前均呈现出下降的趋势。可为川西亚高山林线的植被动态变化预测和历史区域气候重建提供参考。     

宁夏六盘山三种针叶林初级净生产力年际变化及其气象因子响应

利用年轮生态学方法和生物量经验方程,在宁夏六盘山研究了华山松天然林及华北落叶松和油松人工林等3种针叶林的年初级净生产力(NPP)及其与气象因子间的关系。研究表明:3种针叶林生物量的年际变化均符合逻辑斯蒂方程,林分的现存生物量(t/hm2)为华北落叶松林最大(141.96),华山松林(130.99)次之,油松林最小(123.29)。3种针叶林NPP存在显著的年际差异和种间差异,林分的NPP(t.hm-.2a-1)为华北落叶松林(6.72)>油松林(5.76)>华山松林(2.66);NPP年际变化在华山松林呈现"快速增加-缓慢增加-缓慢减小"的趋势,而华北落叶松林和油松林为快速上升的趋势。3种针叶林的NPP随年降水量的变化行为不同,华山松林极轻微地增大,华北落叶松林和油松林均是先增加后降低;然而在极端干旱年份或极端湿润年份,3种针叶林的NPP都趋向于相同的较低值,其原因可能分别是水分胁迫和低温胁迫。气象因子对林分NPP的影响具明显的"滞后效应"和种间差异。华山松林NPP与上年11月和当年9、11月的降水量显著负相关;油松林NPP与上年9月及当年4月的降水量显著相关;上年和当年9月的降水量均与华北落叶松林NPP显著正相关。上年6月的温度和当年3与6月的月均温及月均最高温能显著影响3种针叶林的NPP,但存在种间差异,其中华山松林NPP与当年与上年生长季各月的温度均呈不同程度的负相关,而油松林和华北落叶松林则多呈不同程度的正相关。     

升温、光周期和氮添加变化对兴安落叶松幼苗叶黄期的影响

物候是气候变化敏感指标,是陆地生态系统模型的关键参数。目前关于气候变化对物候影响的研究较多,但关于多环境因子交互作用对秋季物候影响的研究尚不充分,制约着物候变化机制的认知与模型发展。以兴安落叶松幼苗叶黄期为研究对象,采用控制实验研究叶黄期对升温、光周期和氮添加变化及其交互作用的响应。结果表明：（1）升温对兴安落叶松幼苗叶黄期的影响较显著,升温使叶黄始期和叶黄普期显著提前,完全变色期不显著推迟;（2）光周期变化对叶黄期的影响极显著,光周期延长使叶黄始期和叶黄普期显著提前,完全变色期显著推迟;（3）叶黄期与氮添加量相关性不显著;（4）升温、光周期和氮添加变化双因子交互作用对叶黄始期和叶黄普期的影响均极显著且均存在极值,但对完全变色期的影响均不显著：升温与光周期延长交互作用使叶黄始期和叶黄普期提前,且在升温1.5℃、光周期14h时最显著;光周期延长与氮添加交互作用使叶黄始期和叶黄普期提前,且在施低氮（5g N m^-2 a^-1）、光周期10h时最显著;升温与氮添加交互作用使叶黄始期和叶黄普期提前,且在施高氮（20g N m^-2 a^-1）、升温1.5℃时最显著;（5）升温、光周期和氮添加变化交互作用对叶黄始期和叶黄普期影响极显著,对完全变色期的影响不显著。这表明,升温、光周期延长和氮添加将延长兴安落叶松幼苗叶黄期,从而增加兴安落叶松幼苗的固碳时间。研究结果可为物候模型发展以及森林生态系统碳估算提供依据。     

大兴安岭不同纬度兴安落叶松生长对干旱适应性及生长衰退的差异

气候变暖引起干旱事件发生频率和强度增加,由此导致全球部分森林出现衰退和死亡的现象已被广泛报道。然而由于不同地区森林对水分亏缺适应性不同,需要从区域尺度对森林适应干旱事件的特征进行详细研究。在中国东北的森林地区中,大兴安岭在过去几十年中变暖速度最快。以落叶松为主的大兴安岭森林,作为中国唯一的北方森林,具有重要的生态意义。尤其是在全球变暖极大地影响水条件的情况下,了解其对缺水的适应非常重要。通过树木年轮学方法分析比较不同纬度(47°17′—51°17′N)兴安落叶松(Larix gmelinii)径向生长变化率和树木生长对极端干旱的适应性特征(抵抗力(Rt)、恢复力(Rc)和恢复弹力(Rs))。结果表明：不同纬度兴安落叶松对干旱的应对策略呈现共同特征表现为：(1)研究区不同纬度的兴安落叶松生长均与当年生长季7和8月PDSI显著正相关(P<0.05);(2)大径级树木对干旱的抵抗力和恢复弹力更低,对干旱的适应能力更弱。不同纬度兴安落叶松对干旱的应对策略呈现差异性表现：(1)兴安落叶松对干旱的抵抗力和恢复弹力随纬度升高而降低,恢复力随纬度升高而增加;(2)研究区范围内较高纬度的兴安落叶松...

Characteristic Isozyme Spectra of Anionic Peroxidases and Superoxide Dismutases in Callus Cultures of Larix sibirica Ledeb. and Larix gmelinii Rupr. Rupr.

Multiple molecular forms of anionic peroxidase (AP) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were investigated in the callus lines of Larix sibirica and L. gmelinii. Eight distinct patterns of the AP spectra were discerned among 13 investigated lines. The spectra of SOD molecular forms were similar in all lines under investigation, although the lines were obtained from two Larix species and the calli were of different origin. Fe-containing SOD was for the first time described in the Larix isoenzyme spectrum. The authors conclude that the SOD isozyme spectra in dedifferentiated cells of L. sibirica and L. gmelinii are more stable than the isoperoxidase spectra.     

Developmental patterns during direct somatic embryogenesis in protoplast cultures of european larch (Larix decidua Mill.)

Summary Protoplasts isolated from embryogenic suspension cultures of European larch (Larix decidua Mill.) were cultured in thin alginate layers using a nylon mesh to enable a monitoring of the development of single cells. The patterns of cell division and differentiation are characterized and compared with zygotic embryogenesis to which homologies can only be drawn to some extent when the protoplasts grow in an auxinfree environment. Already at 2.5 M both 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid or indole-3-acetic acid cause vacuolation and elongation of individual cells, thus disturbing the process of somatic embryogenesis which generally lacks the precise quantitative patterns occurring in vivo. Prior to the formation of an embryo, a proembryonal mass develops. Oligonucleated products of spontaneous protoplast fusions are able to cellularize even without preceding karyokinesis and perform a normal embryogenic program.Abbreviations BAP N⁶-benzylaminopurine - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - IAA indole-3-acetic acid - MES 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid - PEM proembryonal mass     

中国东北落叶松属植物分类学特征的分析Ⅱ：———种鳞及针叶的地理变异

中国东北部的落叶松属植物,在分类学上常被视为２个种＾［２,３］。然而对其种鳞的形态、正常种鳞的数量及针叶长度的研究统计结果表明,以上性状存在地理处的差异,然而又有明显的连续变异特性,证明长白山及东北东部分布的落叶松,在起源上晚于兴安落叶松（Ｌｉｘ ｇｍｅｌｉｎｉｉ）,应是兴安落叶松在东北东部的地理变异种。     

Effects of aluminium and mineral nutrition on growth and chemical composition of hydroponically grown seedlings of five different forest tree species

Forest die-back and impaired tree vitality have frequently been ascribed to Al-toxicity and Al-induced nutritional disorders due to increased acidification of forest soils. Therefore, in this experiment effects of Al were studied on growth and nutrient uptake with seedlings of five different forest tree species. During growth in culture solutions with and without Al all five species proved to be very Al-tolerant, despite high accumulation of Al in roots. In the coniferous evergreens Douglas-fir and Scots pine shoot as well as root Al concentrations were significantly higher than in the deciduous broad-leaved species oak and birch. Larch showed intermediate Al levels. In none of the five species did Al reduce nutrient concentrations or the Ca/Al ratio to values below the critical level. Besides differences in Al accumulation, coniferous and broad-leaved species also differed with respect to uptake and assimilation of nitrogen. Due to extra NH ₄ ⁺ uptake, oak and birch showed a much higher N uptake and higher NH ₄ ⁺ preference than the coniferous species. Especially with oak this high NH ₄ ⁺ preference in combination with a low specific root surface area resulted in a high root proton efflux density. In comparison to both broad-leaved trees and Scots pine the NO ₃ ⁻ reduction capacity of larch and Douglas-fir was extremely low. This may have important consequences for both species if grown in NO ₃ ⁻ -rich soils.     

Heterosis in hybrid larch (Larix decidua x leptolepis)

Summary Individual 33-year-old forest trees of the deciduous conifer speciesLarix decidua, Larix leptolepis andLarix decidua x leptolepis were investigated with respect to the phenomenon of stem heterosis in hybrid larch; the first part of this study compares the gas exchange responses of leaves. CO₂ assimilation per leaf area was similar in the three larch species, but on a dry weight basis the nitrogen content of the needles and maximum CO₂ assimilation rate (A_max) were slightly higher in the hybrid. This increase was accompanied by a higher protein content than in the Japanese and a lower specific leaf weight than in the European larch. All three species were similar in terms of the photosynthetic nitrogen use and stomatal conductance atA _max. The similar slopes of the area-related steady-state responses of gas exchange against irradiance, evaporative demand and internal CO₂ concentration led to similar rates of CO₂ uptake under ambient conditions. The natural combinations and variability of the environmental factors also reduced the small dry weight-related difference inA _max between hybrid larch and the parent species, such that all trees achieved similar daily carbon gains. Thus, the ecological significance of small interspecific differences in the metabolism of leaves has very little effect under the natural habitat conditions of a temperate climate. The second part of the study will investigate the effect of growth characteristics on the heterosis of hybrid larch.
