十个芍药品种气孔特性研究

选取10个品种的芍药作为研究对象,观察芍药叶片气孔的形态、分布规律,并对其气孔大小、气孔长宽比、表皮细胞密度、气孔密度及气孔指数等进行品种间比较及差异分析.结果表明:10个品种的芍药叶片气孔形态及分布规律一致.各项指标的品种内变异系数均较小.4个品种(1、2、8、9)的4项指标(气孔长度、宽度、长宽比及气孔指数)均没有差异.2个品种(1、9)的5项指标(气孔长度、宽度、长宽比、气孔密度及气孔指数)均没有差异.各项指标相比较,气孔宽度和气孔指数在各品种间变化较小.气孔密度与气孔长度呈反相关.结果不支持将气孔长度、宽度、气孔长宽比、气孔密度、气孔指数及表皮细胞密度作为芍药种或品种分类的依据.     

土壤水分及环境因子对刺楸叶片气体交换的影响

通过测定不同土壤水分条件下,3a生盆栽刺楸苗木的气体交换参数及其周围环境因子,探讨土壤水分及微气候因子对光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度等气体交换参数的影响规律。结果表明:随着水分胁迫的加剧,刺楸叶片蒸腾速率、净光合速率和气孔导度总体上表现出减小的趋势,且随着胁迫的加剧,下降的幅度越大,蒸腾速率、净光合速率和气孔导度在重度、中度、轻度胁迫下日均值分别比对照下降6 6 % ,2 5 %和16 % ,81% ,30 %及5 1% ,70 % ,17%和14 %。随着土壤水分的减少,净光合速率下降逐渐由气孔限制转变为非气孔限制,水分利用效率并未完全表现出下降的趋势,日平均值表现为对照>中度>轻度>重度。逐步回归分析表明,刺楸苗木叶片水气交换参数,不仅受土壤水分的影响,同时也受外界环境因子的综合影响,且影响程度差异较大,回归方程相关系数较好     

Can artificial introductions of diaspore fragments work as a conservation tool for maintaining populations of the rare peatmoss Sphagnum angermanicum?

Species can become regionally rare when limited by the availability of suitable habitats or by limited dispersal ability. We tested if the presence of a rare bryophyte species (Sphagnum angermanicum) was dispersal or habitat limited and at the same time investigated the possibility of establishing new populations of this rare species. Further, we tested how propagule (fragment) size and small scale disturbances affected establishment success. All field experiments were performed by artificially transporting propagules (of various sizes) to new and old sites for the species in Sweden.We show that S. angermanicum is dispersal limited on a regional scale, as no significant differences in establishment success were found between new suitable sites and old occupied sites. The larger the propagule the better was the establishment success; the best establishment success was found when transplanting whole shoots. Disturbances did not increase establishment success, in contrary, when compared to controls success was reduced by the more intensive disturbance treatments. We suggest that disturbance maybe more important for increasing direct dispersal than for making the microhabitat more advantageous for establishment. However, an intermediate disturbance, which slightly reduces the Sphagnum-community length increment, might also be beneficial for the establishment success of S. angermanicum propagules.The reasonably high establishment success of S. angermanicum propagules in new suitable sites suggests that artificial introductions of fragments could be considered as an active management regime for the species if the number of localities continues to decrease.     

Do Ural owls (Strix uralensis) suffer from the lack of nest sites in managed forests?

Nest site availability, preferences and quality for Ural owls (Strix uralensis) were studied in managed forests and a large nature reserve in Estonia. The owl's density was relatively higher in the reserve. Ural owls bred in tree cavities and stick nests, but preferred the cavities. Suitable cavities were very rare compared to stick nests, and most cavities were found in the reserve. Pairs having no suitable cavities in their territories started to breed less frequently, but no difference was detected in young produced per breeding attempt between cavity nests and stick nests. Used cavities and stick nests as well as unused stick nests were situated in similar stands and landscapes, but nest tree and nest characteristics of cavity nests were distinct. The study shows that in managed forests the lack of large snags and tree cavities may limit the numbers of Ural owls, which accept these structures for breeding more readily than stick nests. Retention of large cavity-forming trees in forestry operations may be an effective conservation strategy for this species.     

Pine processionary caterpillar Thaumetopoea pityocampa as a new threat for relict Mediterranean Scots pine forests under climatic warming

The wide distribution of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in Europe includes two relict populations in southern Spain (Sierra Nevada and Sierra de Baza), belonging to the subspecies nevadensis. These populations are isolated in high mountains, which tends to protect them from the attack of a severe defoliating Mediterranean pest, the pine processionary moth Thaumetopoea pityocampa. However, as a consequence of climate change, the pine processionary caterpillar has increasingly attacked populations of this pine in recent years. This work describes the detrimental effects of defoliation by the pine processionary caterpillar in P. sylvestris subsp. nevadensis in Sierra Nevada. Defoliation strongly reduced pine growth as well as all the reproductive parameters measured (female and male cone production, mature cone size, seed production and seed weight), in addition to some deaths. If winter temperatures continue to increase, the pine processionary caterpillar will have a dangerous impact in these relict pine populations, by further reducing the pine's weak regeneration capacity. We suggest some mitigation actions based on managing habitat structure, in order to reduce or avoid such negative impacts.     

黄土半干旱区不同土壤水分条件下刺槐蒸腾速率的研究

2004年夏在山西方山北京林业大学试验基地,采用L I-1600稳态气孔仪,对不同土壤水分条件下盆栽刺槐的生理指标进行了观测。比较分析了不同水势梯度下、不同时间段刺槐蒸腾耗水速率的变化规律,结果表明:刺槐的蒸腾速率tη(μg/(s.cm2))与生理辐射强度I(μm ol/(s.m2))成幂函数关系;蒸腾速率tη(μg/s.cm2))、气孔阻力Rs/(s.cm2)和土壤体积含水量(W%)之间存在着密切的关系;蒸腾速率一般随光强的增强和土壤水分的提高而增大,刺槐蒸腾速率与土壤水分含量的相关系数平均可达0.882 5。通过研究不同土壤水分条件下刺槐蒸腾速率的差异,提出了刺槐水分利用效率的合理供水范围在10%~15%之间,为干旱半干旱地区提高林木的水分利用效率提供了理论依据。     

若干阔叶树树冠各层叶气孔密度及光照条件对气孔密度的影响

４０种阔叶树树冠的外、中、内层同龄叶中，均以外层叶的气孔密度最高，其次为中层叶，内层叶气孔密度最低。新银合欢和马尖相思幼苗在高光照强度下所形成的叶气孔密度最高，中等光照者次之，低光照者最低。在蓝光照射下形成的叶气孔密度最高，其次为红光照射者，自然漫射光下最低。这说明光照强度和光波长对气孔密度有深刻影响。     

Carbon mineralization is promoted by phosphorus and reduced by nitrogen addition in the organic horizon of northern hardwood forests

Limitations to the respiratory activity of heterotrophic soil microorganisms exert important controls of CO₂ efflux from soils. In the northeastern US, ecosystem nutrient status varies across the landscape and changes with forest succession following disturbance, likely impacting soil microbial processes regulating the transformation and emission of carbon (C). We tested whether nitrogen (N) or phosphorus (P) limit the mineralization of soil organic C (SOC) or that of added C sources in the Oe horizon of successional and mature northern hardwood forests in three locations in central New Hampshire, USA. Added N reduced mineralization of C from SOC and from added leaf litter and cellulose. Added P did not affect mineralization from SOC; however, it did enhance mineralization of litter- and cellulose- C in organic horizons from all forest locations. Added N increased microbial biomass N and K₂SO₄-extractable DON pools, but added P had no effect. Microbial biomass C increased with litter addition but did not respond to either nutrient. The direction of responses to added nutrients was consistent among sites and between forest ages. We conclude that in these organic horizons limitation by N promotes mineralization of C from SOC, whereas limitation by P constrains mineralization of C from new organic inputs. We also suggest that N suppresses respiration in these organic horizons either by relieving the N limitation of microbial biomass synthesis, or by slowing turnover of C through the microbial pool; concurrent measures of microbial growth and turnover are needed to resolve this question.     

新保守主义视野下的唐浩明历史小说创作

90年代以来凸显的新保守主义思潮与唐浩明历史小说之间具有一种内在的精神互动。其具体表现是作家对曾国藩、张之洞、杨度等被传统认知所定格的否定性历史人事,在历史维度上实行“同情”性评判,在价值层面上追求“同理”性思考。当然,因与传统文化过于同构而缺乏更加主动的超越,也使作家创作在取得突破性成就的同时,出现了忽视思想者历史作用和宽容暴力专制压迫这样两个值得注意的问题。     

Stomatal and Non-stomatal Effects of Salinity on Photosynthesis in Faba Beans (Vicia faba L.)

The effect of salinity (40 and 80 meq/1 NaCl) on stomatal conductance, chlorophyll content, ultrastructural damage and photosynthetic performance of six cultivars of faba beans ( Vicia faba L.) from different agroclimatic regions were investigated. Low levels of salinity (40 meq/1 NaCl) increased chlorophyll content in some cultivars but did not lead to simultaneous increase in photosynthesis (P). Increased salinity levels (80 meq/1 NaCl) decreased chlorophyll content and stomatal conductance. Ultrastructural damage was observed in sensitive cultivars even at low salinity levels. Based on the parameters investigated, there was no concrete evidence to suggest that the physiological processes of cultivars from arid and semi-arid regions are less affected under saline conditions as compared to cultivars from temperate regions. The results suggested increased salinity affects P not only due to its effect on stomatal closure but also due to other non-stomatal effects like ultrastructural damage and decrease in chlorophyll content below a threshold level.
