东北刺猬非冬眠期体温和内脏器官重量的季节性变化

异温动物的体温和内脏器官重量与其所处的环境密切相关,具有一定的可塑性。本文以活捕于鲁西南山区的东北刺猬为对象,比较了其体温和内脏器官的性别差异和季节变化,旨在了解其对环境的适应性特征。结果表明:1)东北刺猬的体温以夏季最高,且与环境温度呈正相关关系,但性别间无差异;2)东北刺猬的肥满度指数以春季最高,秋季最低,亦无性别差异;3)东北刺猬的内脏器官重量与体重呈显著的正相关关系,雌雄脾脏重量以春季最大,夏季最小;4)季节与性别间交互作用对肾上腺重量的影响显著,雄体睾丸和附睾秋季最轻,雌体子宫则秋季最轻;5)雌体心率显著高于雄体,无季节性差异;非冬眠期心电图中各个波持续时间无性别差异,QRS 波群和T 波的持续时间在秋季显著长于夏季和春季,S - T 段相反,秋季最短。本文研究结果提示:东北刺猬非冬眠期的心率与体温变化无关,心脏功能受季节变化影响较小。体温、肥满度、脾脏、睾丸和附睾、子宫、心电等生理指标的可塑性对于东北刺猬适应环境具有重要意义。     

Danish deciduous forest types

In this study, the first comprehensive multivariate statistical analysis of Danish native forest vegetation, based on 1768 sample plots, is presented. Data were composed of data from literature sources and newly collected data. A series of cluster analyses resulted in 24 forest community types, grouped in beech (Fagus sylvatica), oak (Quercus robur-Q. petraea), hornbeam (Carpinus betulus), alder-ash (Alnus-Fraxinus) and lime (Tilia cordata, T. platyphyllos) types, in addition to mixed forest communities with several co-dominant tree species. The described communities are provisionally arranged syntaxonomically, when possible, according to the international phytosociological system. The distribution of ecological indicator values of pH, soil moisture and nitrogen is gradual in relation to the perceived plant communities. Many forest types, such as beech and oak dominated types, obtain indicated values for pH that span most of the indicated gradient. It is suggested that natural Danish forests probably would be composed of a multitude of canopy forming tree species. The present stands with one or a few tree species forming the canopy is the result of long anthropogenic influence and selective logging.     

六盘山辽东栎、少脉椴天然次生林夏季蒸散研究

2004年8～9月份,利用热扩散技术,结合微型蒸渗仪和水文学方法,研究了辽东栎、少脉椴次生林蒸散组成及其与林分结构的关系.结果表明,辽东栎和少脉椴树干的液流密度在"相对静止期"内比较稳定和微弱,其值在0.05μl·cm^-2·min^-1以下;在"活跃期"内树干液流密度上升较快,并呈单峰、双峰或多峰曲线,其值在0.25μl·cm^-2·min^-1以下;两树种单株蒸腾量有明显的种间差异,前者晴天和阴雨天单株蒸腾量分别为5.31和2.48 L·d^-1,为后者的2.3倍和3.75倍.林下灰_栒子和黄刺玫蒸腾速率日均值接近,分别为0.331和0.321 g·g^-1·h^-1.次生林日均蒸散量1.4 mm·d^-1,其中蒸腾量0.72 mm·d^-1、土壤蒸发量0.19 mm·d^-1、林冠截留量0.4 mm·d^-1,各占总量的49.6%、13.3%和37.1%.乔、灌木树种组成对次生林蒸腾量影响的表现不同,前者表现为个体蒸腾量的种间差异,而后者取决于单位林地面积上各树种的叶量.乔木层、灌木层和草本层(含土壤层)日均蒸散量分别为0.96、0.30和0.19 mm·d^-1,各占总量的65.8%、20.9%和13.3%,说明乔木层对林分日蒸散量大小起主要作用,灌木层次之,草本和土壤蒸发量的贡献最小.     

Foliar macronutrients (N,P, K,Ca and Mg) in lime (Tilia spp.)

Summary The effect of sampling technique upon the measurement of variation in nutrient (N, P, K, Ca and Mg) concentration was examined. Sampling and analytical precision over two years were indicated by coefficients of variation which ranged from 5.7 to 14.0 per cent for sampling error and 4.3 to 16.1 per cent for analytical error. Concentration of N, P and K in the leaves was found to be independent of sampling height. Ca and Mg concentrations, however, decreased with increased height on the crown. The differences in concentration between the bottom and top of the crown were 15 and 19 per cent for Ca and Mg respectively. The nutrient concentrations of samples taken from basal coppice shoots were significantly different from those in the true crown. Nutrient concentration was independent of aspect. Leaf area varied throghout the season, but the largest leaves were always at the base of the crown and the smallest at the top.     

南京椴花化学成分鉴定及不同发育时期黄酮类化合物差异分析

【目的】研究南京椴花化学成分及其主要成分黄酮类化合物在不同发育时期的变化规律,为后续采用多组学手段探究椴树花中重要药用化合物的代谢通路及调控机制解析奠定基础,同时为椴树花的采收提供理论依据。【方法】以10年生南京椴为试验材料,用超高效液相色谱串联质谱(UPLC-MS/MS)技术分析南京椴花中代谢物组分及类黄酮含量差异。【结果】(1)南京椴花中共鉴定得到46种化合物,其中有机酸及其衍生物13种、香豆素及其衍生物4种、酯1种、类黄酮28种。(2)盛花期是南京椴花中代谢物发生显著变化的分界点,与蕾期相比,开花期间代谢物变化更明显。(3)多重比较分析显示：26种黄酮类化合物在不同时期花中含量差异显著(P<0.05),阿福豆苷、山奈苷、槲皮苷、橙皮苷、花旗松素和芹菜素-7-O-葡萄糖醛酸在盛花期相对含量较高,原花青素A2和3种原花青素三聚体在末蕾期含量较高。【结论】发育状态可作为判断南京椴花中次级代谢物含量的重要因素,末蕾期的标志性化合物是原花青素A2,盛花期的标志性化合物是芹菜素-7-O-葡萄糖醛酸,末蕾期和盛花期均具有采收价值。     

长白山阔叶红松林紫椴种群结构与动态特征

紫椴(Tilia amurensis)为国家二级重点保护野生植物。以长白山北坡阔叶红松林内的紫椴种群为研究对象,通过建立种群静态生命表、绘制存活曲线、计算数量动态指数并引入生存函数和时间序列预测模型定量描绘其结构与动态特征。结果表明:1)种群年龄结构呈不规则金字塔形,幼龄阶段(Ⅰ-Ⅳ龄级)个体数之和占个体总数的67.26%。2)种群存活曲线接近Deevey-Ⅲ型,表明植株在幼龄阶段死亡率高。3)总体数量动态变化指数V_pi>V''_pi>0,表明紫椴种群为增长型,但V''_pi趋近于0,结合死亡率(q_x)和消失率(K_x)曲线呈现出连续性先增后降的复杂动态变化趋势,可知该种群不稳定且在干扰情况下增长趋势不明显。4)生存函数分析显示,种群在Ⅲ-Ⅳ龄级间达到平衡状态,尔后进入衰退期且从第Ⅷ龄级开始进入生理衰退。5)时间序列预测分析表明,在未来2、3、4、5、6、7、8、9、10龄级时间后,紫椴幼龄个体数逐渐减小,而中、成和老龄个体数量将逐渐增加,说明未来紫椴种群的增长主要依靠后者。生物学特性和生境是限制紫椴种群增长的主要原因。建议加强幼苗抚育工作,提高幼苗和小树的存活率,保护和改善生存环境,从而促进紫椴种群的自然更新和恢复。     

华东椴花序苞片和叶片发育及结构特征比较研究

花序苞片是椴树属最典型的特征,但它与其他器官的演化关系尚不明确。本文对华东椴（Tilia japonica Simonk.）花序苞片和叶片在生长发育上的关联性进行分析,并对其表面微形态特征和内部解剖结构进行详细比较。结果显示,华东椴苞片和叶片在生长发育过程中表现出非常相似的规律性,二者在苞片幼期阶段均生长迅速、中期阶段生长变缓、成熟阶段再有小幅生长。对苞片与叶片形态性状的相关性分析显示,苞片长、苞片宽、叶长、叶宽的相关性均极显著。在表面微形态特征上,苞片和叶片总体上非常相似;在解剖特征上,苞片没有栅栏组织和海绵组织的分化,叶片有明显的分化。结合椴树属苞片的化石记录,我们认为椴树属苞片最早由叶片特化而来,是一种叶状结构,二者在表皮微形态特征及解剖结构上的差异,主要是在演化过程中为了适应各自不同功能而逐渐产生的。     

Fruit-bearing branchlets are carbon autonomous in mature broad-leaved temperate forest trees

In order to evaluate the degree of carbon autonomy for fruit development, the carbon source-sink relationship in fruit-bearing branchlets of mature deciduous forest trees was manipulated in situ. The tests included half and complete defoliation, girdling or the combination of both treatments, which were applied on fruiting branchlets by using a canopy crane. Concentrations of non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) were analysed in different branchlet tissues and fruits, to identify situations of carbon imbalances induced by the treatments. NSC concentrations of branchlets were generally lower under treatments resulting in decreased fruit growth. All three investigated species (Carpinus betulus, Fagus sylvatica and Tilia platyphyllos) exhibited complete carbon autonomy of fruiting at the level of whole, undisturbed branchlets, since neither a decrease of total infructescence biomass, nor of individual fruit mass occurred on girdled, un-defoliated branchlets. On girdled, 100% defoliated branchlets, fruit biomass relative to controls decreased by approximately 50% in Carpinus and Tilia, but by almost 80% in Fagus, which can be explained by different proportions of photosynthetically active infructescence tissues among the species. In contrast to the other two species, Tilia branchlets did not import carbon to compensate for assimilate loss after defoliation.
