土壤水势对水曲柳幼苗水分生态的影响

采用根区渗灌控水技术,将土壤水势长期控制在0～-20kPa(W₁)、-20～-40kPa(W₂)、-40～-60kPa(W₃)、-60～-80kPa(W₄)、-80～-160kPa(W₅)范围内,系统地研究了不同土壤水势条件下水曲柳幼苗的蒸腾过程、吸水过程、根叶水势日动态过程及SPAC体系的水流阻力.结果表明,在亚饱和土壤水分状态下(W₁),细根水势最高,水分由土壤进入细根的阻力最小,根系吸水速率最高,从而支持了日间强烈的蒸腾作用.在田间持水量土壤水分状态下(W₂),细根吸水阻力成倍增加,吸水速率和蒸腾速率显著下降,但尚未改变蒸腾作用日动态过程的单峰模式.当土壤水分在田间持水量状态以下(W₃～W₅)时,随着土壤水势递降,细根吸水阻力急剧增加至几倍乃至几十倍,根系吸水速率过低,吸水与蒸腾矛盾加剧,叶水势降至很低,气孔关闭,蒸腾作用受到严重抑制,呈现明显的午休低谷.在实验范围内(0～-160kPa),土壤水分对水曲柳幼苗是非等效的,当土壤水分在田间持水量状态以下(<-40kPa)时,水曲柳全光苗发生显著的水分胁迫.

几种作物的生理指标对土壤水分变动的阈值反应

 在生长盛期,谷子、高梁、冬小麦的气孔导度、叶水势和光合速率在一定土壤含水量范围内并不随着土壤含水量的降低而发生明显变化,只有当土壤含水量低于一定程度时,才随着土壤湿度的降低而减少,表现为对土壤水分有明显的阈值反应。不同作物此阈值下限存在差异,高粱在大于田间持水量42％～45％的根层土壤湿度条件下,气孔阻力和叶水势基本维持恒定;谷子的这个指标在50％左右,冬小麦在60％左右。而夏玉米在所试土壤湿度范围内(20％～30％土壤体积含水量),气孔阻力和叶水势基本维持不变,而光合作用随着土壤含水量的增高而出现增加趋势。表明在这4种作物中,只有玉米需要充足的水分供应才能维持其良好的生长发育,而高粱具有比其它3种作物更强的适应土壤水分变动能力,从而比其它作物更抗旱和耐旱。

以2年生沙地樟子松幼苗为对象,通过持续自然干旱处理,研究当土壤含水量下降到田间持水量的60%、40%、30%、20%和15%时幼苗叶片水势及不同器官(一年生叶、当年生叶、茎、粗根和细根)的可溶性糖、淀粉和非结构性碳水化合物(NSC)的含量,分析沙地樟子松幼苗在干旱致死过程中各器官NSC的分配规律及其适应机制.结果表明: 土壤含水量从田间持水量的40%下降到15%,幼苗叶片凌晨及正午水势无显著变化.当土壤含水量从田间持水量的60%下降到30%,各器官可溶性糖、淀粉、NSC含量和可溶性糖/淀粉先下降后上升.从30%下降到20%,当年生叶、一年生叶、茎和细根可溶性糖、淀粉和NSC含量降低,而粗根可溶性糖含量增加,淀粉和NSC含量减少.从20%下降到15%,当年生叶、一年生叶和茎可溶性糖、淀粉和NSC含量降低,粗根可溶性糖和NSC含量下降,淀粉含量上升,细根可溶性糖含量减少,淀粉和NSC含量增加.沙地樟子松幼苗通过不断调整各器官NSC及其组分含量变化以适应不同干旱环境,土壤含水量下降到田间持水量的30%后,幼苗可溶性糖和NSC含量总体呈下降趋势,淀粉在粗根和细根中积累,幼苗可能因碳耗竭而死亡.     

不同土壤水势条件下水曲柳幼苗的光合作用特征

 采用根区渗灌控水技术,将土壤水势长期控制在0～-0.02 MPa(W1) 、-0.02～-0.04 MPa(W2)、-0.04～-0.06 MPa(W3)、-0.06～-0.08 MPa(W4)、-0.08～-0.16 MPa(W5)范围内。系统研究了不同土壤水势条件下水曲柳（Fraxinus mandshurica）幼苗叶片的光合速率、PSⅡ光化学效率和Rubisco羧化活性的日动态。结果表明,在所有土壤水势条件下,苗株皆在早晨达到净光合速率（Pn）最高峰;不同处理间光合午休的程度随所处土壤水势递降而加剧。从W1至W5,叶片的日光合累积比例为100∶96∶64∶60∶52。各处理晨后最初的Pn降低主要是气孔导度下降引起的,W3～W5处理午间强烈的光合抑制则主要源于非气孔因素。各处理的PSⅡ光化学效率（Fv/Fm）和Rubisco初始羧化活性也都表现为不同程度的午间降低,且所处的土壤水势越低,降幅就愈大,其中W3、W4和W5处理的递降趋势尤为明显。苗木叶片光合作用的日均水分利用效率除W1显著较低外,其余处理间无显著差异。从充分供水条件下（W1、W2）Pn仍有晨后降低分析,林外强烈的大气因子（如高温、强光和低大气湿度）已经构成苗木光合作用的胁迫因素,而土壤供水不足则大大加剧了胁迫的程度。

毛竹液流特征及其与环境因子的关系

运用Dynamax液流测量系统监测浙江庙山坞自然保护区毛竹液流的日变化,采用型号为EQ-15的土壤水势仪监测0～100cm土层的土壤水势,利用自动气象站同步监测太阳总辐射、空气温度、空气相对湿度、风速等气象因子。结果表明:晴朗天气条件下毛竹液流的日变化过程呈现单峰曲线,具有显著的昼夜变化规律,且变幅大;阴雨天气时液流日变化过程呈双峰或多峰曲线,而且日均液流速率和日液流量均低于晴朗天气,变化较平缓;不同径阶毛竹液流速率波动规律相同,但径级较大毛竹的日均液流速率和液流量较大一些。当0～100cm土层土壤水势在-13～-10kPa时,毛竹液流速率与土壤水势相关性不显著,但当土壤水势低于-200kPa左右时,液流速率和土壤水势呈正相关,土壤水分含量成为限制液流速率的主要因子之一;相关性分析表明,边材液流速率与空气温度、空气相对湿度、光合有效辐射、总辐射、水蒸气压亏缺呈极显著正相关,与空气相对湿度呈极显著负相关。太阳辐射、气温、空气湿度、风速等环境因子作自变量,以液流速率作因变量,经过逐步回归,建立了液流速率与环境因子的多元线性模型。     

乌兰布和沙区紫花苜蓿根系吸水模型

在实测获得根重密度和土壤含水量的基础上,运用土壤水分运动方程及Penman-Monteith公式,计算得到干旱沙区不同水分处理下紫花苜蓿(MedicagosativaL.)根系吸水速率和蒸腾强度.结果表明紫花苜蓿根系吸水速率与土壤剖面含水量和根重密度密切相关.苜蓿地水分消耗规律在分枝期以棵间蒸发为主,在开花期和结实期以植株蒸腾为主.建立了干旱沙区紫花苜蓿根系吸水模型,经回归分析得到模型中的各个参数,通过对回归结果的方差分析表明,模型的相关性较好(R2=0.890,p<0.05);另外从模型验证的结果看,土壤剖面含水量模拟值与实测值基本吻合,说明本文提出的根系吸水模型其可靠性较好.     

土壤含水量对极小种群毛枝五针松幼苗抗氧化活性的影响

为探究水分对毛枝五针松(Pinus wangii)幼苗生理特性的影响,对不同土壤含水量下幼苗松针的抗氧化活性进行了研究。结果表明,土壤含水量为田间持水量的40%~80%时,其POD、SOD和CAT活性较强;随着处理时间的延长,细胞质膜渗透性减弱,抗逆性变弱;脯氨酸、可溶性糖和蛋白质含量均以20%~40%的田间持水量较高;处理30 d后丙二醛含量随着土壤含水量的增加而提高,在土壤含水量为田间持水量的40%时,丙二醛含量最低,抗逆性最强。因此,人工培育幼苗时,土壤水分过多的时间尽量不要超过30 d,控制土壤水分为田间最大持水量的30%~50%,这样能提高幼苗存活率。     

Hydraulic resistance of two sorghums varying in drought resistance

Genotypes of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] vary in drought resistance. Yet it is not known if their hydraulic resistances vary. The objective of this study was to determine if the hydraulic resistance of a drought-resistant sorghum was the same as that of a drought-sensitive sorghum. Leaf water and osmotic potentials were measured daily, during a 14-d period, in leaves of a drought-resistant (‘KS9’) and a drought-sensitive (‘IA25’) sorghum, which had the roots in pots with a commercial potting soil that was either well watered or allowed to dry. Soil water potential, adaxial stomatal resistance, and transpiration rate were determined daily. Hydraulic resistance of the plants was calculated from the slope of the line relating soil water potential minus leaf water potential versus transpiration rate. When the soil was not watered, the drought-sensitive sorghum had a water potential that averaged −0.50 MPa lower and an osmotic potential that averaged −0.57 MPa lower, but a similar adaxial stomatal resistance (1.19 s mm⁻¹), compared with the drought-resistant sorghum. Seven days after the beginning of the experiment, the water potential of the soil with the drought-sensitive sorghum was −0.25 MPa lower than that of the soil with the drought-resistant sorghum. With the water-limited conditions, the drought-sensitive sorghum depleted the soil-water reserve more quickly and died 2 d before the drought-resistant sorghum. Under well watered conditions, the two sorghums had similar water potentials (−1.64 MPa), osmotic potentials (−2.83 MPa), and adaxial stomatal resistances (0.78 s mm⁻¹). The calculated hydraulic resistance of the two sorghums did not differ and averaged 3.4 × 10⁷ MPa s m⁻¹. The results suggested that the variation in susceptibility to drought between the two genotypes was due to differences in rate of soil-water extraction.

玉米生育期土壤-植物-大气连续体水流阻力与水势的分布

根据玉米生育期的田间试验资料分析了土壤-植物-大气连续体中水势和水流阻力的分布,结果表明土壤与植物叶片之间的水势差在玉米抽雄期前达0.8—1.0MPa,到抽雄期以后达1.0—1.5MPa,叶片与大气之间的水势差则在抽雄期前后分别达80—120MPa和60—80MPa;连续体内的水流阻力主要在叶片与大气之间.建立了连续体中玉米叶片水势的动态模拟公式,模拟叶水势具有较高的精度.最后,揭示了叶片蒸腾速率与叶-气系统水势差和水流阻力的关系,当叶片与大气之间的水势差达90—100MPa之后,蒸腾速率随叶-气间水势差增加而减小.     

Heterogeneity of soil and soil solution chemistry under Norway spruce (Picea abies Karst.) and European beech (Fagus silvatica L.) as influenced by distance from the stem basis

The present study aims at characterizing plant water status under field conditions on a daily basis, in order to improve operational predictions of plant water stress. Ohm's law analog serves as a basis for establishing daily soil-plant relationships, using experimental data from a water-limited soybean crop: 227-1. The daily transpiration flux, T, is estimated from experimental evapotranspiration data and simulated soil evaporation values. The difference, 227-2, named the effective potential gradient, is derived from i) the midday leaf potential of the uppermost expanded leaves and ii) an effective soil potential accounting for soil potential profile and an effectiveness factor of roots competing for water uptake. This factor is experimentally estimated from field observation of roots. G is an apparent hydraulic conductance of water flow from the soil to the leaves. The value of the lower potential limit for water extraction, required to assess the effective soil potential, is calculated with respect to the plant using the predawn leaf potential. It is found to be equal to –1.2 MPa. It appears that over the range of soil and climatic conditions experienced, the daily effective potential gradient remains constant (1.2 MPa), implying that, on a daily basis, transpiration only depends on the hydraulic conductance. The authors explain this behaviour by diurnal variation of osmotic potential, relying on Morgan's theory (1984). Possible generalization of the results to other crop species is suggested, providing a framework for reasoning plant water behaviour at a daily time step.

Response of the water status of soybean to changes in soil water potentials controlled by the water pressure in microporous tubes

Water transport through a microporous tube-soil-plant system was investigated by measuring the response of soil and plant water status to step change reductions in the water pressure within the tubes. Soybeans were germinated and grown in a porous ceramic 'soil' at a porous tube water pressure of -0.5 kpa for 28 d. During this time, the soil matric potential was nearly in equilibrium with tube water pressure. Water pressure in the porous tubes was then reduced to either -1.0, -1.5 or -2.0 kPa. Sap flow rates, leaf conductance and soil, root and leaf water potentials were measured before and after this change. A reduction in porous tube water pressure from -0.5 to -1.0 or -1.5 kPa did not result in any significant change in soil or plant water status. A reduction in porous tube water pressure to -2.0 kPa resulted in significant reductions in sap flow, leaf conductance, and soil, root and leaf water potentials. Hydraulic conductance, calculated as the transpiration rate/delta psi between two points in the water transport pathway, was used to analyse water transport through the tube-soil-plant continuum. At porous tube water pressures of -0.5 to-1.5 kPa soil moisture was readily available and hydraulic conductance of the plant limited water transport. At -2.0 kPa, hydraulic conductance of the bulk soil was the dominant factor in water movement.     

Plant and soil resistance to water flow in faba bean (Vicia faba L. major Harz.)

An experiment was conducted to determine soil and plant resistance to water flow in faba bean under field conditions during the growing season. During each sampling period transpiration flux and leaf water potential measured hourly were used with daily measurements of root and soil water potential to calculate total resistance using Ohm's law analogy. Plant growth, root density and soil water content distributions with depth were measured. Leaf area and root length per plant reached their maximum value during flowering and pod setting (0.31 m² and 2200 m, respectively), then decreasing until the end of the growing period. Root distribution decreased with depth ranging, on average, between 34.2% (in the 0–0.25 m soil layer) and 18.1% (in the 0.75–1.0 m soil layer). Mean root diameter was 0.6 mm but most of the roots were less than 0.7 mm in diameter. Changes in plant and soil water potentials reflected plant growth characteristics and climatic patterns. The overall relationship between the difference in water potential between soil and leaf and transpiration was linear, with the slope equal to average plant resistance (0.0165 MPa/(cm³ m^-1 h^-1 10^-3). Different regression parameters were obtained for the various measurement days. The water potential difference was inversely related to transpiration at high leaf stomatal resistance and at high values of VPD. Total resistance decreased with transpiration flux in a linear relationship (r=−0.68). Different slope values were obtained for the different measurement days. Estimated soil resistance was much lower than the observed total resistance to water flow. The change from vegetative growth to pod filling was accompanied by an increase in plant resistance. The experimental results support previous findings that resistance to water flow through plants is not constant but is influenced by plant age, growth stage and environmental conditions. A more complex model than Ohm's law analogy may be necessary for describing the dynamic flow system under field conditions. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Unraveling the Effects of Plant Hydraulics on Stomatal Closure during Water Stress in Walnut

The objectives of the study were to identify the relevant hydraulic parameters associated with stomatal regulation during water stress and to test the hypothesis of a stomatal control of xylem embolism in walnut (Juglans regia x nigra) trees. The hydraulic characteristics of the sap pathway were experimentally altered with different methods to alter plant transpiration (Eplant) and stomatal conductance (gs). Potted trees were exposed to a soil water depletion to alter soil water potential (Psisoil), soil resistance (Rsoil), and root hydraulic resistances (Rroot). Soil temperature was changed to alter Rroot alone. Embolism was created in the trunk to increase shoot resistance (Rshoot). Stomata closed in response to these stresses with the effect of maintaining the water pressure in the leaf rachis xylem (P(rachis)) above -1.4 MPa and the leaf water potential (Psileaf) above -1.6 MPa. The same dependence of Eplant and gs on P(rachis) or Psileaf was always observed. This suggested that stomata were not responding to changes in Psisoil, Rsoil, Rroot, or Rshoot per se but rather to their impact on P(rachis) and/or Psileaf. Leaf rachis was the most vulnerable organ, with a threshold P(rachis) for embolism induction of -1.4 MPa. The minimum Psileaf values corresponded to leaf turgor loss point. This suggested that stomata are responding to leaf water status as determined by transpiration rate and plant hydraulics and that P(rachis) might be the physiological parameter regulated by stomatal closure during water stress, which would have the effect of preventing extensive developments of cavitation during water stress.     

华北落叶松树体储水利用及其对土壤水分和潜在蒸散的响应: 基于模型模拟的分析

 树体储水在树木水分传输中具有重要的作用, 不仅为蒸腾提供水分来源, 还具有缓冲作用, 可防止木质部导管水势过低以至于水分传输的失败。树体储水动态及其利用的研究对于认识树木对水分胁迫的响应机制具有重要意义。该研究构建了包含树体储水释放-补充作用的树干水分传输模型, 可模拟计算林分小时尺度的冠层蒸腾、边材液流、树体储水与木质部导管水流交换过程, 并以六盘山北侧的华北落叶松(Larix principis-rupprechtii)人工林为例, 在林分水平分析树体储水利用及其 与土壤水分和潜在蒸散之间的关系。检验结果表明, 该模型能够精确地模拟出林分边材液流的日变化特征, 模拟与观测的小时液流速率决定系数R²为0.91 (n = 2 352)。模拟结果表明, 在典型晴朗天气下, 在日出时树体储水利用启动, 至9:00左右达到峰值(0.14 mm?h^–1), 午间降至0, 下午降为负值直至午夜, 即进入树体补水阶段; 树体储水日使用量(DJ_z)为0.04–0.58 mm?d^–1, 与日蒸腾量(DT_r)成正相关(R² = 0.91), 对蒸腾的贡献为25.6%。分析结果表明, 当潜在蒸散(ET_p)低于4.9 mm?d^–1时, ET_p是华北落叶松树体储水利用的主要驱动因子, DJ_z与ETp成正相关(R² = 0.68); 当ET_p高于4.9 mm?d^–1时, DJ_z随着ET_p的增加呈现降低趋势; DJ_z与土壤水势没有显著相关关系(p > 0.05), 但最大树体储水日使用量(DJ_zmax)与土壤水分含量成正相关(R² = 0.79), 说明土壤水分是树体储水利用的限制因子。
