“地球生物多样性黄金十字带”的提出与分析

Presenting and Analysing of the Gold Cross in Biological Diversity of the Earth

地球面临着生物多样性种质资源大量丧失的威胁,没有生物多样性种质资源的支撑,21世纪生物经济不可能有突破性进展.寻找生物种质资源的“新大陆”已经成为了一个迫切的问题.本文提出:在以中国云南省瑞丽县为中心,纵向的三江并流地区和横向的北回归线上唯一的绿洲结合在一起的十字交叉地区,蕴藏着地球上从热带、亚热带、温带、到寒带的丰富的生物多样性资源.这是地球生物多样性的“黄金十字带”.本文分析了这一地区生物多样性如此丰富的原因,指出这一“十字带”对发展生物产业具有积极的现实意义和深远的影响.

The Earth is now facing up to a threat of losing a great deal of species resources. For the lack of species resources, a breakthrough cannot be made in the biological economy in the 21st century. It has becoming an exigent task to find a ＂new continent＂ of species resources. It is pointed out that that there are a lot of species resources in the cross area, centering at Ruili County of Yunnan Province in China made by the lengthways of three parallel river area and the only oasis on the transverse tropical regions, which contains abundant biological resources belonging to tropic zone, semi -tropical zone, temperate zone and frigid zone. It is the ＂gold -cross＂ of the Earth. The reasons why this area has so abundant biological resources are analyzed and the fact that this ＂Cross＂ has realistic meaning and farreaching influences to the biological industry is pointed out.
