摘要:

荒漠植物经过与极端环境博弈,发展出了独特的叶片功能性状,是其为适应长期干旱胁迫所采取的生态对策之一。本研究在塔里木盆地北缘不同土壤水分条件下以多枝柽柳(Tamarix ramosissima)为研究对象,调查其种群特征,测定分析其叶片结构和化学性状以及主要土壤理化性质。结果表明:(1) 土壤水分对柽柳叶片全氮、全磷、C:P、C:N、平均叶厚和平均叶面积等性状具有显著影响。(2) 随着土壤含水量增加,柽柳叶片N:P呈现下降趋势,其生长逐渐从受磷限制转变为受氮限制。(3) 柽柳叶片全磷含量与C:P、N:P之间呈极显著负相关(P<0.01)、C:N与平均叶面积呈显著正相关(P<0.05)。(4) 土壤含水量是影响柽柳叶片功能性状的重要因素,柽柳通过部分叶片性状之间的协同变化以便更好地适应干旱环境。研究结果可为干旱荒漠地区生态保护和恢复过程中植物生态适应性评价提供科学依据。

Abstract:

Desert plants have developed unique leaf traits as part of their ecological response to long-term drought stress. We investigated the population characteristics of Tamarix ramosissima under different soil water conditions at the northern edge of the Tarim Basin and measured and analyzed its leaf structural and chemical traits, along with the main soil physicochemical properties, in this study. that the following was found: (1) soil water had a significant effect on several leaf traits of Tamarix ramosissima, including total nitrogen and phosphorus content, C:P, C:N, mean leaf thickness, and mean leaf area. (2) With the increase of soil water content, the N:P of Tamarix ramosissima leaves decreased, and its growth gradually changed from phosphorus-limited to nitrogen-limited. (3) There was a significant negative correlation between the total phosphorus content and C:P and N:P of Tamarix ramosissima leaves (P < 0.01) and a significant positive correlation between C:N and the mean leaf area (P < 0.05). The results indicate that soil water content is an important factor affecting the leaf functional traits of Tamarix ramosissima, and it adapts to the arid environment through the synergistic changes of some leaf traits. This study provides a basis for the evaluation of plant ecological adaptations in the ecological conservation and restoration processes in arid desert areas.
