黄土丘陵沟壑区三种豆科人工草地的植被与土壤特征

在黄土高原丘陵沟壑区以 4龄苜蓿 (Medicago sativa)、沙打旺 (Astragalus adsurgens)和甘草 (Giycyrrhiza uralensis)单播人工草地为材料 ,人工牧草、杂草和土壤 3方面研究了其生产性能和生态特性。在相同的管理条件下 ,沙打旺种群高度平均高于苜蓿 33.8% ,是甘草的 6 .2倍 ;苜蓿的密度分别是甘草和沙打旺的 5 .9倍和 2 .6倍 ;沙打旺盖度最大 ,苜蓿次之 ,甘草最小。三种牧草的地上生物量及其占群落生物量的比例依次是苜蓿 >沙打旺 >甘草 ;苜蓿种群生物量占群落的比例接近沙打旺 ,二者远高于甘草。甘草人工草地的杂草种数、杂草生物量及其生物量占群落的比例均最大。0～ 10 0 cm土层内三种人工草地的地下生物量依次为甘草 >苜蓿 >沙打旺。 0～ 10 0 cm土层内营养物质含量 :全 P,苜蓿 >甘草 >沙打旺 ;全 N,苜蓿与甘草接近 ,高于沙打旺 ;速效 P、速效 N都是甘草最高 ;有机质含量 ,苜蓿接近甘草、高于沙打旺。讨论了管理措施与人工草地的关系 ,加大投入是维持人工草地群落稳定的前提之一

Vegetation and soil characteristic of three forage legume pastures on the Loess Plateau

Lucerne (Medicago sativa), milkvetch (Astragalus adsurgens) and licorice (Glycyrrhiza uralensis) are among the most important forage legumes on the Loess Plateau in China. Various studies have been undertaken on herbage dry matter yield, effects on water and soil conservation, and management aspects of these three legume species. However, study on soil fertility, weeds, and botanical composition of the plant communities has been sparse. Therefore, the biomass, weed invasion and soil fertility of four-year-o...
