Impact of grassland contract policy on soil organic carbon losses from alpine grassland on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau

Carbon storage in the soils on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau plays a very important role in the global carbon budget. In the 1990s, a policy of contracting collective grasslands to smaller units was implemented, resulting in a change from the traditional collective grassland management to two new management patterns: a multi‐household management pattern (MMP: grassland shared by several households without enclosures) and a single‐household management pattern (SMP: grassland enclosed and used by only one household). In 2016, 50 MMP and 54 SMP winter pastures on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau were sampled to assess the differences in soil organic carbon (SOC) between the two management patterns. Results showed that average SOC was significantly greater under MMP than under SMP, with an estimated 0.41 Mg C/ha/yr lost due to SMP following the new grassland contract. Based on the government's grassland policy, four grassland utilization scenarios were developed for both summer and winter pastures. We found that if the grassland were managed under SMP, likely C losses ranged between 0.31 × 10⁷ and 6.15 × 10⁷ Mg C/yr across the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau relative to MMP, which more closely resembles pre‐1990s grassland management. Previous estimates of C losses have only considered land use change (with cover change) and ignored the impacts driven by land management pattern changes (without cover change). The new data suggest that C losses from the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau are greater than previously estimated, and therefore that the grassland contract policy should be reviewed and SMP households should be encouraged to reunite into the MMP. These findings have potential implications for land management strategies not only on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau but also other grazing regions globally where such practices may exist.     

基于6 000 kg·hm－2以上籽棉产量水平的高产高效理论

提高棉花产量是棉农增收的根本途径，实现6 000 kg·hm^－2以上籽棉高产水平应满足如下群体质量特征要求：品种为环境适应性强、高光效且化调敏感的抗虫杂交种；密度在2.40万～3.00万株·hm^－2范围，棉花总铃数120万～135万；成铃时空均衡分布，伏前桃、伏桃、秋桃分别占5%、45%、50%，上、中、下部成铃各占35%、35%、30%，内、外围铃各占52%、48%。在6 000 kg· hm^－2以上籽棉产量目标下，棉花个体要达到“120壮株型、555超大铃”标准，即株高120 cm以上，高质量成铃时间达到70 d，单株果节120个以上，单株50铃以上，内围成铃占52%、外围成铃占48%，秋桃占50%左右、铃重6 g以上。     

青霉菌发酵液对大豆幼苗生长及生理特性的影响

采用室内生理检测及生物化学方法,研究了青霉菌发酵液对大豆幼苗生长及生理特性的影响。结果表明:用一定浓度的青霉菌发酵液对大豆浸种和茎叶处理,大豆幼苗的生长呈明显上升趋势,处理后大豆的株高、根长、株鲜重和根鲜重均明显得到了提高,且生长状态好于对照,不同浓度处理间具有明显差异,在发酵液浓度为5 g·L-1时,效果最佳。尤其是对根鲜重的影响,促进率最高可达56.21%,同时增强了幼苗根系活力,最大可以提高57.82%,浸种和茎叶处理后,分别提高了叶绿素含量41.25%和15.40%;超氧化物歧化酶活性12.20%和11.70%;过氧化物酶31.33%和29.95%;过氧化氢酶活性42.8%和20.0%,这为发酵液在大豆田推广应用、提高大豆产量提供了重要理论依据。     

西南地区油菜品种根肿病抗性及布局分析

为明确西南地区主栽油菜品种根肿病抗性,以期为合理品种布局提供依据,降低根肿病的危害和损失。结合病圃根肿病菌生理小种鉴定,在四川安县、大邑、广汉三地区,采用病圃自然发病法,对80个油菜品种进行根肿病抗性评价,并对22个品种连续3年进行抗性跟踪。结果表明：三地区病圃根肿菌为存在基因型分化的4号生理小种;供试油菜品种中无免疫根肿病品种,安县、大邑、广汉三地感病品种分别占比88.75%、83.75%、87.50%,其中55个品种在三地区均表现感病,即不适宜在根肿病菌为4号生理小种区域种植;抗性跟踪评价显示不同品种的抗性稳定性存在差异。‘浙油50’、‘油罐罐’适宜安县地区种植,‘黄金荚’、‘金油858’、‘油研9号’、‘种都油998’和‘渝黄4号’适宜大邑地区种植,‘志远油8号’适宜广汉地区种植。‘绵丰油5号’、‘德名油1号’表现抗性丧失趋势;‘丰油精’、‘高油48’抗性不稳定;‘矮架早’抗性完全丧失。     

Compatibility of root growth and tuber production of potato cultivars with dynamic and static water‐saving irrigation managements

The important root characteristics of root length density (RLD) and root mass density (RMD) generally differ among irrigation managements and potato cultivars. The objective of this study was to investigate the RLD and RMD variations and their functional relationships with gross potato tuber yield for two commercial potato cultivars, Agria and Sante, under different irrigation strategies. Full irrigation and water‐saving irrigation strategies, deficit and partial root drying irrigations, were applied statically (S) and dynamically (D) based on daily crop evapotranspiration. Results showed that SPRD had significantly greater RLD (3.64 cm/cm³) and RMD (132.7 μg/cm³) than other irrigation treatments. Between the potato cultivars, Agria had significantly larger values of RLD (3.50 cm/cm³) and RMD (138.7 μg/cm³) than Sante. The functional relationship between the root growth characteristics and tuber yield showed that under water‐saving irrigations, Agria increased root mass at the expense of gross tuber yield but Sante increased root mass to maintain larger gross tuber yields. However, Agria produced more roots and gross tuber yield than Sante, and it is concluded that Agria is a more drought‐tolerant potato cultivar, which is recommended for tuber production in regions where water might be scarce. It was shown that larger root production in potatoes was associated with improved tolerance to water stress.
