Microanalysis of Multi-Element in Juncus effusus L. by LIBS Technique

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy （LIBS） was used to decipher the unique multi-elemental characteristics of Juncus effusus L. The spectral fingerprints of Juncus effusus L. were established based on elemental microanalysis via LIBS. Microanalysis and multimode sampling methodologies were designed in this study. The relative standard deviation （RSD） approach was performed to optimize the multi-shot measurements. Taking advantage of the capability with no or minimal sample pre-treatment of LIBS, a thermodynamic chart of four elements （Mg, Ca, Ba, and Na） was created from twelve collection regions. The diagram of elemental distribution on a micro-scale was generated to explore the nature of Juncus effusus L. by LIBS. The results demon- strated that LIBS is a promising technique for rapid elemental microanalysis of heterogeneous samples.

Two new phenanthrenoid dimers from Juncus effusus

Two new phenanthrenoid dimers, named dijuncuenins A （1） and B （2）, were isolated from the ethanolic extract of the whole plant of Juncus effusus. Their structures were determined by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis and mass spectrometry. The plausible biosynthetic pathways of compounds 1 and 2 were proposed.

Growth,phenology and N-utilization by invasive populations of Gunnera tinctoria

智利大叶草(Gunnera tinctoria)是一种不同寻常的固氮植物,已入侵到了世界各地,通常入侵到低蒸发需求和/或高降雨的环境。在许多可以解释其作为一个成功的引入物种的机制中,差异性的物候特征可能起重要作用,但这可能取决于在次优化条件下生长和利用营养物质的能力。我们研究了智利大叶草在物候和固氮能力方面是否具有优势,并将其与受智利大叶草入侵影响最大的本地物种灯芯草(Juncus effusus)进行了比较。2016-2017年,我们每周或每两周对爱尔兰阿奇尔岛的长期种群进行物候学评估。在测量土壤温度,湿度和氧化还原电位的同时,收集了叶和花序数,叶总面积,光截获和地上生物量的数据。利用δ15N同位素并结合原位乙炔还原测量的方法评估了用于支持季节生长的固氮能力的重要性。研究结果表明,2016-2017年,智利大叶草和灯芯草开始生长的时间不同,智利大叶草叶片出现和展叶的时间较早,水分利用率较高时地上生物量最大。智利大叶草的早期生长依赖于预先形成的结构,5月下旬冠层发育达到最大,并且早于灯芯草。虽然在3月份观察到固氮作用,但这对冠层发育后期的生长有更显著的贡献。基于δ15N同位素分析结果表明,早期生长主要与根状茎的氮转移有关,而幼苗主要依赖于固氮作用。这一发现强调了养分调动对早期生长的重要性,并表明固氮能力的重要性可能在不同的发育过程中有所不同,并且其在入侵过程的不同阶段也是如此。
