胡杨异形叶结构型性状及其相互关系

胡杨在个体生长发育过程中,叶形不断发生变化,植株上会逐年依次出现条形、披针形、卵形和阔卵形叶,且在同时具有这4种叶形的植株上,叶片在树冠中分布的顺序自上而下分别是阔卵形、卵形、披针形和条形。通过实验的方法对胡杨4种叶形叶片厚度、叶面积、比叶面积、叶片干重和干物质含量等5个结构型性状指标进行分析,研究不同叶形叶片的结构型性状与叶形(叶长/宽比值)之间的关系,以及各结构型性状指标间的相互关系。结果表明:叶片厚度、叶片干物质含量、叶面积和叶片干重与叶长/宽比值之间均呈明显负相关(P0.05);比叶面积随着叶长/宽比值的减小而逐渐减小,但二者相关性不明显,表明胡杨在个体发育过程中通过增加叶面积、叶厚度,减小比叶面积等方式来提高适应环境的能力。各结构型性状指标间相关性表现为:比叶面积与叶干物质含量和叶干重之间均呈明显负相关(P0.05),与叶厚度间呈极明显负相关(P0.01);叶片干重与叶厚度间呈明显正相关(P0.05);叶厚度与叶干物质含量之间、叶干重与叶面积之间均呈极明显正相关(P0.01),其它指标间无明显相关性。
