黄土高原丘陵沟壑区不同生境条件下柠条人工种群无性繁殖与更新研究

通过对黄土高原丘陵沟壑区纸坊沟流域12个阳坡和阴坡柠条人工种群样地群落特征和无性繁殖特征进行调查,系统地研究了柠条人工种群在黄土高原丘陵沟壑区不同生境条件下无性繁殖与更新状况,为该地区柠条人工种群的经营管理提供依据。主要结论是:生长在阳坡的柠条无性繁殖较阴坡旺盛,无性系母株通过萌生苗和根蘖苗产生的分株数量和扩展范围均优于阴坡,山坡上部优于山坡下部,但从分株生长情况来看,阳坡无性分株的个体生长不如阴坡,山坡下部的柠条长势弱于山坡上部;不同生境柠条人工种群均存在分株枯死现象,坡上部的分株枯死量较坡下部大,最大枯死率出现在阳坡上部(25.9%);不同龄级比较,1～2 a生幼苗枯死率最高;对土壤中柠条根系萌芽点的空间分布范围分析表明,山坡上部柠条根系在6～30 cm土层最为密集,山坡下部以6～20 cm土层最为密集,山坡上部柠条根系水平扩展距离比山坡下部大;无性分株萌芽点空间分布格局受坡位影响大,而与坡向关系不密切。柠条种群适应力、繁殖力强,在丘陵沟壑区能够自我更新,是严酷条件下植被恢复的优良树种。

Asexual Reproduction and Regeneration of Artificial Caragana korshinskill Population in Different Habitats in Hilly Area of the Loess Plateau

Twelve plots of artificial Caragana korshinkill population in both sunny and shady slope in Zhifanggou hilly area of the Loess Plateau were investigated from the aspects of community characteristics and asexual reproduction characteristics.The main conclusions were as fllows.Vegetative propagation of C.korshinskill in sunny slope was more vigorous than that in shady slope,and it was better in upslope than in lower slope.Extending area and ramet number were also better in sunny slope.Death ramet were found i...
