Study on Growth Rules and Photosynthetic Physiology of Biennial Container Seedlings and Bare Root Seedlings of Phoebe

Transplantation experiment was carried out using biennial container seedlings and bare root seedlings of Phoebe zhennan S. Lee as materials. In the experiment,it measured the growth indicators such as the seedling height,basal diameter,and number of branches and leaves. Besides,it also measured net photosynthetic rate( Pn),transpiration rate( Tr),stomatal conductance( Gs),intercellular CO_2 concentration( Ci) and soluble sugar,soluble protein,malondialdehyde( MDA) content,superoxide dismutase activity and root activity. The results indicated that the growth indicators of the Phoebe container seedlings performed the best in the plant height,basal diameter,and number of branches and leaves; photosynthetic capacity was the strongest,and the fertilization could enhance the photosynthetic capacity of seedlings; soluble sugar,soluble protein content,superoxide dismutase activity and root activity of Phoebe container seedlings were higher than that of bare root seedlings.

干旱胁迫对桢楠幼树生长及光合特性的影响

【目的】探讨桢楠幼树对干旱胁迫的响应机制,为桢楠幼树栽培的立地条件选择和水分管理提供参考。【方法】以2年生桢楠(Phoebe zhennan S.Lee)幼树为研究对象,采用盆栽控水的方法,对桢楠幼树进行干旱胁迫试验,试验共设7组处理,每隔5d依次对其中1组处理停止浇水,即分别持续干旱0(正常供水,对照),5,10,15,20,25,30d,30d后形成了不同土壤水分梯度,之后测定桢楠幼树在不同干旱胁迫处理下的生长和光合生理指标,并分析其变化规律。【结果】持续干旱0,5,10,15,20,25,30d后,土壤体积含水量(SWC)分别为20.50%,9.26%,7.55%,5.34%,3.86%,2.80%,2.57%。与对照相比,干旱胁迫下,土壤体积含水量显著降低(P<0.05)。干旱胁迫程度较轻(处理0～20d)时,桢楠幼树的叶片相对含水量(LRWC)无显著变化;重度干旱胁迫(处理20～30d)时,LRWC显著降低(P<0.05)。随着干旱胁迫强度的增加,桢楠幼树的树高生长量和地径生长量均显著降低(P<0.05),桢楠幼树叶片的叶绿素总量和类胡萝卜素含量均呈先升高后降低的趋势。干旱胁迫前期(干旱时间≤15d),桢楠叶片的净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)、蒸腾速率(Tr)和胞间二氧化碳浓度(Ci)均显著降低(P<0.05);干旱胁迫后期(干旱时间>15d),Pn、Gs和Tr继续降低,而Ci显著升高,光合活性下降。干旱胁迫下桢楠幼树的表观量子效率、光饱和点、RuBP羧化速率、CO2饱和点均减小,对光能和CO2的利用能力减弱。【结论】干旱胁迫显著降低了土壤体积含水量,从而使桢楠幼树叶片的相对含水量减少,导致气孔关闭,阻碍了桢楠叶片光合色素的合成,减弱了其对光能和CO2的利用能力,进而抑制了桢楠幼树树高和地径的生长,当土壤体积含水量降至3.0%以下时,植株处于枯死状态。

利川市楠木群落特征研究

采用典型选样法,在湖北省利川市天然楠木群落设置了8个20 m×30 m的样地进行调查,记录样方内的物种及其株高、胸径、数量,对楠木种群内的物种组成、群落内植物属的区系分布特征、群落特征进行分析。结果表明,湖北利川楠木群落具有四大特点:1)物种组成丰富,共有维管束植物338种,隶属于117科261属,物种多样性较高;2)群落属稳定型群落,具备天然更新能力;3)楠木群落是以楠木为优势种群构成的单优群落;4)群落生境较适宜,群落资源十分珍稀。
