芦苇与入侵植物互花米草的光合特性比较

以上海崇明东滩湿地外来入侵植物互花米草与本地种芦苇为研究对象,对它们的光合特性进行了比较研究,结果表明:(1)与芦苇相比,互花米草具有更高的表观量子效率(AQY)、CO2羟化效率(CE)和最大净光合速率(pmax);(2)生长季节初期,互花米草午间时段的光合、气孔导度和蒸腾速率均高于芦苇,各指标与光、温的变化基本一致;(3)互花米草的净光合速率曲线呈“单峰”型,测定指标在强光合辐射、高温条件下迅速上升,芦苇则表现出明显的“午休”现象;(4)在生长季节初期(5月份)和活跃期(9月份),互花米草的净光合速率显著高于芦苇,而在生长季节后期(11月份)则低于芦苇。该项研究有利于解释互花米草生长迅速,生产力高,竞争性强的生理生态学特性。

A comparison of photosynthetic characteristics between an invasive plant Spartina alterniflora and an indigenous plant Phragmites australis

As a consequence of rapid globalization, greatly increased emphasis is being placed on research into the ecology of invasive plants. Since Spartina alterniflora was introduced into Chongming Dongtan in 1995, it has gradually occupied a large area of the Phragmites australis zone, and has became a threat to the intertidal vegetation.. In this study, the photosynthetic characteristics of an invasive plant, Spartina alterniflora, and an indigenous plant, Phragmites australis, were measured during the growing s...
