Endozoochorous seed dispersal by golden snub-nosed monkeys in a temperate forest

Seed dispersal is essential for plant recruitment and the maintenance of biodiversity. Colobine monkeys are primarily folivorous, but they also consume fruits and are often assumed to be seed predators. Although they are known to be epizoochorous seed dispersers, their role as endozoochorous seed dispersers needs reassessment. We examined potential endozoochory in golden snub-nosed monkeys (Rhinopithecus roxellana) at Dalongtan in Shennongjia National Park, central China, by assessing potential germination of ingested seeds (n = 1806, 9 species) from fecal samples. Intact seeds were in almost all fecal samples (ranging from 5–130 seeds), and ingested seeds were from small seeded species (seed width <4.5 mm). The 2 most abundant species were Actinidia arguta (73%) and Rosa caudata (15%). The fruits of A. arguta were unripe when ingested (i.e. effective seed predation) and the ingested seeds did not germinate in the trials. Therefore, ingestion of unripe seeds does not lead to effective seed dispersal. However, germination rates of defecated R. caudata (9%) were greater than control seeds (6% and 0%), demonstrating potential endozoochorous seed dispersal. Thus, colobine monkeys do indeed disperse mainly small-seeded from multi-seeded fruits through potential endozoochory and this process enhances the recruitment of seedlings.     

温度、光照和发芽床对假俭草种子萌发的影响

实验室内进行了假俭草种子净度检验样品最低限量和发芽检验方法的研究，探讨了光照（以黑暗为对照）、温度（分别包括２０℃恒温，１５／２５℃、２０／３０℃、２０／３５℃和２５／３５℃变温）和发芽床（分设纸上ＴＰ和砂中Ｓ）等因素对种子发芽的影响。结果表明：假俭草种子净度检验样品最低限量是３ｇ，送验样最低量以及计数其它植物种子检验样品最低量均为３０ｇ；最佳萌发条件为２０／３０℃或２０／３５℃变温（１６小时低温，８小时高温），高温时段设光照，和纸上（ＴＰ）发芽；发芽的初次和未次计数时间分别以第１０天和第２１天为宜；种子的幼苗发育可划分为单子叶植物子叶留土类型。     

Effects of insect infestation on rodent‐mediated dispersal of Quercus aliena: results from field and enclosure experiments

Rodents influence plant establishment and regeneration by functioning as both seed predators and dispersers. However, these rodent–plant interactions can vary significantly due to various environmental conditions and the activity of other insect seed predators. Here, we use a combination of both field and enclosure (i.e. individual cage and semi‐natural enclosure) experiments, to determine whether rodents can distinguish sound seeds from those infested with insects. We also demonstrate how such responses to insects are influenced by food abundance and other environmental factors. We presented rodents with 2 kinds of Quercus aliena seeds (sound and insect‐infested seeds) in a subtropical forest in the Qinling Mountains, central China, from September to November of 2011 to 2013. The results showed that rodents preferred to hoard and eat sound seeds than infested seeds in the field and semi‐natural enclosure, while they preferred to eat infested seeds over sound seeds in the individual cages. In addition, both hoarding and eating decisions were influenced by food abundance. Rodents hoarded more sound seeds in years of high food abundance while they consumed more acorns in years of food shortage. Compared with field results, rodents reduced scatter‐hoarding behavior in semi‐natural enclosures and ate more insect‐infested seeds in smaller individual cages. These results further confirm that rodents distinguish infested seeds from non‐infested seeds but demonstrate that this behavior varies with conditions (i.e. environment and food abundance). We suggest that such interactions will influence the dispersal and natural regeneration of seeds as well as predation rates on insect larvae.     

青皮种子主要储藏条件的研究Ⅰ.种子含水量与测控

水分是影响青皮(Vatica astrotricha Hance)种子活力最关键的内在因素,其中种胚含水量是决定因素。用含水量27—29％椰糠控制种胚含水量在50—52％,也就是控制种子含水量在30—36％,维持种子一定的呼吸强度(32℃下测定为50—60 O_2μl/g·h),种子活力保持最高,能延长寿命。找出了储藏中种子安全含水量的最佳点,此点处于安全含水量下限的内缘,可利用种子本身果翅与种子或大小种子之间含水量的内在关系来测定。这种测定方法准确、快速又简便。可考虑作为确定“顽拗型”种子安全含水量下限的新捷径。     

华北驼绒藜种子发育期各器官间碳水化合物的再分配

对华北驼绒藜种子发育阶段的主要代谢“库”器官根、茎、果实进行了可溶性糖、淀粉和蔗糖酶的动态变化研究分析,确定其营养物质的流向及流量的大小,探索这一阶段碳水化合物的分配是否与种子低结实率有关。结果显示华北驼绒藜种子发育期间,根和茎中可溶性糖和淀粉的含量呈不断下降趋势,其中根中淀粉由盛花期到成熟期下降达48%,茎中下降幅度较小;同时这2个器官中蔗糖酶的活性也逐渐降低。果实中可溶性糖和淀粉含量呈逐渐递增的趋势,蔗糖酶活性也呈增大趋势。表明尽管根、茎通常是代谢的“库”器官,但在种子生长发育期间,根和茎转而成为 “源”器官,其大量同化物流向繁殖器官。但是从同化物的流量来看,多年生的华北驼绒藜根茎中同化物的输出比例远小于一年生的作物。     

多花黑麦草幼穗分化进程对种子生产性状的影响

两年分期播种试验结果表明，多花黑麦草幼穗分化进程对穗部性状和种子产量有显著影响。幼穗分化的天数与每穗种子粒数呈极显著正相关。播种愈早，幼穗分化天数愈多，种子产量愈高。南京地区留种的多花草麦草的最佳播期为８月２０日至９月１０日。二棱期是多花黑麦草通过春化阶段的形态标志，也是幼穗能否分化完全的转折点。单棱至护颖分化期是影响种子粒数最关键的时期。     

祁连山东麓高寒草甸不同退化程度草地土壤种子库特征研究

通过野外调查和种子萌发法对东祁连山高寒草甸4种不同退化程度草地(未退化,ND;轻度退化,LD;中度退化,MD;重度退化,HD)土壤种子库进行了比较研究。结果表明:4种退化程度草地种子密度大小为:轻度退化草地>未退化草地>中度退化草地>重度退化草地;未退化草地共发现了6种植物,主要为十字花科(Cruciferae)和毛茛科(Ranunculaceae)植物;轻度退化草地共发现了9种植物,主要为禾本科(Gramineae)、菊科(Compositae)和豆科(Leguminosae)植物;中度退化草地共发现了5种植物,主要为车前科(Plantaginaceae)植物;重度退化草地共发现了5种植物,主要为禾本科(Gramineae)植物;对于土壤种子库的物种多样性,轻度退化草地最有利于维持和保护该地区物种多样性,未退化草地和轻度退化草地显著优于中度退化草地和重度退化草地;总体来看,4种退化程度草地种子库种子与地面植被物种相似性均较低。     

用活力指标评价几种牧草的种批质量和田间出苗率

采用一系列试验室和田间试验，以探讨催腐、电导、发芽势、发芽指数和幼苗根长等活力指标用于评价牧草种批质量和田间出苗率的适用性。供试牧草种为紫花苜蓿、光叶紫花苕、苏丹草和老芒麦。试验结果表明，与标准发芽率相比较，电导和催腐法可更为有效地预测2种豆科牧草种子的出苗率和划分光叶紫花苕的种批质量；发芽势和发芽指数可更准确地预测苏丹草的出苗率；而发芽指数可更灵敏地划分老芒麦的种批质量。其他活力方法在评价其他质量指标方面未显示出优越性。讨论了影响活力测定的因素。
