Characterization of nutrient elements at different leaf positions in Phragmites australis in Songnen degraded grassland

对松嫩草地不同退化程度样地的芦苇(Phragmites australis)各叶位叶片的生长及营养元素代谢特征进行分析, 以探讨土壤盐碱化对芦苇叶片营养元素代谢的影响及其适应机制。结果表明: 松嫩草地土壤中Na ⁺含量、全盐含量、pH值是衡量土壤盐碱化程度的主要决定因子, 从典型草地到重度退化草地, 土壤盐碱化程度逐级加剧。芦苇具有一定程度的耐盐碱性, 植株高度和地上部分生物量随土壤盐分增加而降低。检测出10种营养元素: K、Na、Ca、Mg、Fe、Cu、Zn、Mn、P、B, 主成分分析结果显示全部样本均处于95%的置信区间内。方差分析结果表明, 芦苇不同叶位叶片对营养元素的富集能力有所差异。K、P含量随叶位降低而减少; 而Na、Ca、Mg呈现相反分布规律。Fe、Cu集中分布在功能叶和老叶中; Mn只大量聚集在老叶中; 而Zn集中分布在幼叶中。表明土壤盐碱化对老叶营养元素的影响大于幼叶, Na在老叶中的大量积累保护了幼叶免于或者减轻离子的毒害。功能叶和老叶中Ca、Mg、Fe、Cu的积累有利于保障芦苇正常的光合作用。盐碱胁迫下幼叶仍维持较高K、P含量, 这不仅为幼叶的生长提供所需营养, 同时提高了其抗逆性, 这可能是芦苇的生理响应策略。     

棘茎楤木不同器官营养成分初步研究

对棘茎楤木不同器官养分进行分析,结果表明,棘茎楤木叶片中可溶性蛋白质和可溶性糖含量分别达60.40,15.41 g/kg,是茎皮的3.4和2.9倍,是根皮的4.5和3.0倍.叶片齐墩果酸含量最高,达179.42 mg/kg,分别是茎皮和根皮的1.6和1.7倍.棘茎楤木不同器官营养元素平均含量总体表现为K＞Mg＞ Ca ＞Mn ＞Zn＞ Fe＞Na＞ Cu.根皮中K、Ca、Fe、Cu含量较高,而茎皮中的Mg、Mn、Zn含量高于根皮和叶,Na的含量以叶片为高.     

水位变化对三峡库区消落带狗牙根种群营养特征的影响

为探讨三峡库区大尺度、反季节水位变化对消落带狗牙根种养元素吸收和分配特征的影响, 分别测定了三个样带的营养元素含量。结果表明: 根、茎、叶中大量元素含量顺序为N>K>P, 中量元素含量顺序为Ca>S>Mg, 微量元素为Fe>Zn>Cu>Mn。根系对K、Mg、S、Fe、Mn、Zn 的吸收均被促进, 而对P 和Ca 的吸收被显著抑制, 低水位根系对N、Cu 的吸收也被显著促进。高水位茎和叶中N、P、K、Mg、S、Cu 的含量呈降低趋势, Ca、Fe、Mn 含量呈显著增大趋势, 且茎中Zn 含量也呈增加趋势。随着水位的降低N、P、K、Mg、S、Zn 含量显著增加, 在叶片中的含量显著大于根、茎, 而Fe、Mn、Cu 表现出主要向茎分布的趋势, 且Ca 在叶中的分配显著被抑制, 而在茎中的分配被促进。随着水位降低新叶中N、P、K、Mg、S 的含量明显高于老叶, 而Fe、Ca、Mn、Zn 和Cu 则相反。随着分枝级数增大N、P、K 的含量呈递增趋势, Ca、Cu、Fe、Zn 呈递减趋势, 而Mg、S 含量呈“∨”形变化。因此, 库区水位已导致消落狗牙根种群营养特征发生显著的变化。

毛果苔草湿地营养元素的积累、分配及其生物循环特征

毛果苔草(Carex lasiocarpa)湿地地上部分积累量小于地下部分的积累量,在地上几个构件中,叶片比叶鞘积累量大,而穗的积累量最小;地下部分中细根比根茎的积累量大.土壤分室营养元素贮量在系统的各分室中占绝对优势,毛果苔草湿地土壤中各种营养元素总贮量的顺序为K＞Fe＞N＞Ca＞P＞Mg＞Mn＞Zn＞Cu;它们的吸收系数的排序是Mn＞N＞P＞Zn＞Mg＞Cu＞Ca＞Fe＞K;几种营养元素的利用系数的排序是Mn＞N＞P＞Zn＞Mg＞Cu＞Ca＞Fe＞K;几种营养元素的循环系数的排序为Ca＞K＞Mg＞N＞P＞Mn＞Zn＞Cu＞Fe;因此,该系统中钙、钾的存留比例最小,而流动性较大,而铁则相反,存留比例大,流动性较小.

新疆绿洲农田土壤-棉花系统9种矿质元素生物循环特征

在新疆绿洲区,对不同连作棉田土壤中9种矿质元素含量、棉花植株的吸收和富集特性以及棉田养分收支量等进行分析,研究了农田土壤-棉花系统矿质元素的生物循环特征。结果表明:棉田土壤中微量元素和大量元素均有一定程度的贫化趋势,以Mo的耗竭最为严重。棉株不同器官累积矿质元素的能力有明显差异,叶片中Ca、Mg和Mn的含量较高,根、茎中K、Na、Fe、Mo含量较高,棉籽中Zn和Cu含量最高;不同产品器官对矿质元素的吸收和富集能力不同,秸秆为:MoKMgCaCuZnNaMnFe,纤维:MoKMgZnCuCaNaMnFe,棉籽:MoZnKMgCuCaMnNaFe。棉花对Mo的吸收能力最强,长期连作导致土壤中Mo耗竭较为严重;随籽棉的收获,从棉田移出Zn、Cu的比例和数量较高,大量元素中移出Mg、K较多;棉花对Mn、Fe、Ca、Na的吸收量虽然较多,然而大部分富集在秸秆中,随着棉花秸秆的还田作用,将归还于耕作层并有大量富集,消耗量不大。新疆棉花长期单一种植,应重点补充Mo、Zn和Cu微量元素肥料,酌情补充Mg、K等大量元素肥料。棉田Ca、Na含量较新疆土壤背景低,预示着棉田土壤在向着脱盐碱方向发展,然而两元素在秸秆中的比例较高,因此棉花长期连作农田,应注意防止耕作层土壤向次生盐碱化方向发展。     

福州酸雨区次生林中台湾相思与银合欢叶片的12种元素含量

在酸雨区,研究叶片元素浓度变化规律对于理解树种选择与重建亚热带森林具有重要意义。在中亚热带丘陵次生林的酸雨区内,测定两个优势树种——台湾相思树(Acacia confusa)、银合欢(Leucaena glauca)的叶片元素(N、P、S、K、Ca、Na、Mg、Fe、Mn、Cu、Zn和Al)含量,并探讨其可能遭受酸雨的影响。结果表明,两树种叶片营养元素含量均表现为N > K > Ca > S > P > Mg > Na,重金属元素表现为Fe > Al > Cu。两树种叶片的P、Ca、Mg、Na、Mn和Cu含量差异极显著,Zn含量差异显著。受频繁酸雨影响,台湾相思(3.42 g/kg)和银合欢(2.70 g/kg)的S含量明显高于中国陆生被子植物叶片的平均值((1.66±3.06) g/kg),Na含量低于S含量,也明显低于中国陆生被子植物叶片Na含量的平均值((2.48±5.45)g/kg),表明研究区域植物叶片的Na元素的特异性,酸雨加速土壤酸化导致土壤Na含量低可能是一个原因。由N/P、Ca/Al摩尔比值的大小可得出,台湾相思为P制约型树种,虽然其Al含量并未超出正常范围值,但其Ca/Al摩尔比值小于12.5,表明存在Al的危害风险;而银合欢属N制约型树种,并未受到Al的危害,更适应研究区生长环境。若仅从叶片元素含量分析,该区域的台湾相思和银合欢受到Fe危害风险,且存在更大的Cu和Zn危害风险,银合欢的Zn、Cu元素累积量大于台湾相思,所以可以认为银合欢的抗性强于台湾相思,可能更适应于酸雨区域生长。     

Long-term hyposaline and hypersaline stresses produce distinct antioxidant responses in the marine alga Dunaliella tertiolecta

Tolerance to salinity stress in higher plants correlates to levels of antioxidant enzymes and/or substrates. Do hyperosmotic and hypoosmotic stress induce antioxidant responses in salt tolerant algae, and if so, are these responses the same for both excess and minimal salinity? To answer these questions, cultures of the marine alga Dunaliella tertiolecta (Chlorophyta) were grown in seven salinities covering a 60-fold range from 0.05 to 3.0 mol/L NaCl. Long-term effects of salinity on growth and antioxidant parameters were determined. Growth rates were reduced at the salinity extremes (0.05 mol/L NaCl and 3 mol/L NaCl) indicating the cultures were stressed. The levels of six antioxidant enzymes and three antioxidant substrates were quantified at these growth salinities. Compared to growth at optimum salinities (i.e. 0.2-0.5 mol/L NaCl), high salinities produced a 260% increase in monodehydroascorbate reductase, a doubling of ascorbate peroxidase activity and a three-fold increase in the rate of dark respiration. Cells acclimated to low growth salinities (hyposaline stress, i.e. < 0.2 mol/L NaCl) showed major increases in glutathione and alpha-tocopherol coupled with decreases in Fv/Fm ratios and in total and reduced ascorbate compared to moderate and high external salinities. Cell volumes remained unchanged, except at the lowest salinity where they doubled. Catalase, superoxide dismutase, dehydroascorbate reductase and glutathione reductase activities were not altered by extreme salinities. The involvement of oxidative stress at both salinity extremes is implied by the alterations in antioxidant enzymes and substrates, but the specific changes are very different between hypo and hypersaline stresses.     

Changes in non-structural carbohydrates in olive (Olea europaea) leaves during root zone salinity stress

Self-rooted olive ( Olea europaea L.) plants were grown in hydroponics at various NaCl concentrations (from 0 to 200m M ) for 28 to 32 days followed by 28 to 30 days of relief from salinity over two growing seasons. Olive leaves accumulated both glucose and mannitol during the period of salinity stress. The concentrations of fructose, myo -inositol, galactose, galactinol, sucrose, raffinose, and stachyose were not significantly affected by salinity. Starch content was decreased by salinity. The mannitol/glucose and mannitol/soluble carbohydrates ratios increased as the external NaCl concentration was increased, but returned to the control levels during the relief period. The increase in mannitol or glucose molar concentrations, expressed on a leaf tissue water basis, was partially due to a reduction in leaf tissue water content under salinity stress. However, an increase in mannitol concentration was also observed when expressed on a dry weight basis. The accumulation of mannitol in leaf tissue preceded any reduction in leaf area rate or net assimilation rate. The increase in leaf mannitol or glucose concentration was positively correlated with the increasing level of salinity at the root zone, but not with the accumulation of Na⁺ in the shoot. The role of mannitol. a potential osmoregulator in leaf mesophyll during salinity stress, is discussed in relation to the complex carbohydrate composition of olive leaves.     

Nitrogen application improves gas exchange characteristics and chlorophyll fluorescence in maize hybrids under salinity conditions

The understanding of crop physiological responses to salinity stress is of paramount importance for selection of genotypes with improved tolerance to this stress. Maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids Pioneer 32B33 and Dekalb 979 were grown in pots and subjected to three levels of salinity under four nitrogen levels to determine the role of nitrogen under saline conditions. Salinity stress effects on gas exchange characteristics and chlorophyll fluorescence of maize hybrids were evaluated under semi-controlled conditions. Under salinity stress, the changes in the net photosynthetic rate (P _N), stomatal conductance (g _s), and transpiration rate (E) were similarly directed: all decreased and were lower than in control at the higher salinity level (10 dS/m). Water use efficiency was increased with increasing salinity since transpiration was stronger depressed by salt than photosynthesis. Plants subjected to the lower level of salinity did not differ from control in tested characteristics. Nitrogen application ameliorated the effects of salinity.     

Interactions between diurnal temperature fluctuations and salinity on expansion growth and water status of young tomato plants

Expansion growth is limited if the difference between day and night temperature (DIF) is negative. Growth is also limited high salinity. Expansion growth of tomato seedlings was studied under day/night temperatures of 16/24°C and 24/16°C, and nutrient solution salinities of 3 and 15 mS cm^-1 to ascertain whether interactions exist between the two stress forms. Water status was also studied in order to assess possible mechanisms of growth retardation. A significant interaction between DIF and salinity was found for all recorded growth variables. Hypocotyl length, plant height, leaf area and fresh and dry weight were lower at negative DIF than at positive, the reduction being greater at low salinity than at high. Increased salinity also reduced growth, more so at positive DIF than at negative. Growth reduction at negative DIF was accompanied increased shoot water and osmotic potentials. Pressure potential was unaffected DIF. Growth reduction at high salinity was accompanied reduced water and osmotic potentials. Pre-dawn pressure potential was increased at high salinity, whereas no effect of salinity on pressure potential at midday was found. The differences in effects on water status between the two stress forms may suggest differing mechanisms of growth retardation.     

Morphological and biochemical changes in maize under drought and salinity stresses in a semi-arid environment

Abstract

This study investigated some morphological and biochemical responses of maize to drought and salinity in open field in Tunisia with the aim of gaining insights into tolerance mechanisms. After seedling emergence, five treatments were applied until maturity: optimal water supply (control, 100% of maximum evapotranspiration - ETM); irrigation at 70% ETM (moderate drought) and at 35% ETM (severe drought); optimal supply of water containing 3?g NaCl L^?1 (moderate salinity) and 6?g NaCl L^?1 (severe salinity). Here, we demonstrated that extreme drought and salinity severely decreased the leaf area (?74% and ?55%, respectively) and the above-ground biomass (?35% and ?31%, respectively) at silking stage, indicating that the photosynthetic leaf apparatus is highly sensitive and that drought has a greater effect than salinity. Grain yield losses were also exacerbated under extreme stress conditions, viz. severe drought (?85% versus controls) and severe salinity (?73%), while productivity under moderate salinity approximated that of moderate drought, possibly due to increases in leaf chlorophyll and carotenoid content and K/Na ratio. The leaf area and its relative water content were positively correlated with grain yield under both salinity and drought stresses, and may therefore be used as markers for effective screening of maize genotypes for better stress tolerance.     

Environment affects stress in exercised turbot

We investigated the interaction of water temperature (10, 18 and 22 degrees C) and salinity (33.5 and 15 per thousand ) on the stress response of juvenile turbot. At each temperature/salinity combination, fish were subjected to 10 min enforced exercise. This induced a moderate stress response, which differed at the various temperature and salinity combinations. High temperatures caused more rapid increases in plasma cortisol and glucose, larger and more rapid increases in plasma lactate levels, which were also influenced by body weight, and a faster recovery in plasma Na(+) and Cl(-). Low salinity ameliorated cortisol responses at low but not at high temperatures. The magnitude of ionic disturbance was reduced at 15 per thousand. Plasma K(+) did not change at any temperature or salinity. The stress response involved activation of the brain-pituitary-interrenal axis, as indicated by the cortisol elevations. The low magnitude of glucose responses, the mild Na(+) and Cl(-) disturbances, and the lacking K(+)-responses indicated mild activation of the brain-sympathetic-chromaffin cell axis, and hence a low release of catecholamines, which seemed though to occur to a higher extent at higher temperatures. The relatively low catecholaminergic response of turbot may be linked to their inactive sedentary lifestyle. The higher responsiveness at higher water temperatures may reflect a higher overall adaptive capacity.     

Evaluation of orange-fleshed sweet potato (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Ipomoea batatas</Emphasis> L.) genotypes for salt tolerance through shoot apex culture under in vitro NaCl mediated salinity stress conditions

Fifteen genotypes of sweet potato were evaluated for salinity stress tolerance under in vitro NaCl mediated salinity stress conditions (MS, MS + 0.5% and MS + 1.0% NaCl). The growth parameters such as number of leaves, number of shoots, number of roots, length of plantlets and length of roots decreased significantly among the genotypes with increase in level of salinity. Of the 15 genotypes tested, six genotypes (108X1, 90/606, 90/696, CIP 8, S-30X15 and SP-61) were unable to sprout even at 0.5% NaCl and were characterized as susceptible to salt stress, three genotypes (CIP 6, 90/774 and CIP 3) which could tolerate 0.5% NaCl as moderately tolerant and six genotypes (CIP 12, CIP 13, JO 14, JP 13, SB-198/115 and Gouri) as tolerant to salinity at 1.0% NaCl. Amongst the six genotypes showing tolerance to 1.0% NaCl, the exotic genotypes––JP 13, CIP 12 and indigenous one SB-198/115 continued to exhibit significant higher values for growth parameters over the susceptible one. Based on the performance under NaCl mediated salinity stress (1.0%), the pattern of salinity tolerance in the genotypes through shoot apex culture was JP 13 > SB-198/115 > JO 14 > Gouri > CIP 12 > CIP 13. The effect of salt stress on the activity of antioxidative enzymes was studied in leaves of 8-week-old plantlets of those six genotypes, which responded at higher NaCl stress along with a susceptible genotype 90/606. In leaves of salt stressed plants, superoxide dismutase (SOD), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX) and catalase (CAT) activities increased when compared with the stress free control. The increase was more pronounced in the tolerant genotypes than that in the susceptible one. These results indicate that oxidative stress may play an important role in salt stressed sweet potato plants and that the greater protection of tolerant plants from salt induced oxidative damage results, at least in part, through the increase in the activity of antioxidant enzymes.     

Response of wheat to subsoil salinity and temporary water stress at different stages of the reproductive phase

To examine the effects of subsoil NaCl salinity in relation to water stress imposed at different growth stages, wheat was grown in a heavy texture clay soil (vertosol) under glasshouse conditions in polythene lined cylindrical PVC pots (100 cm long with 10.5 cm diameter) with very low salinity level (EC_e 1.0 dS/m; ESP 1.0 and Cl 30 mg/kg soil) in top 10 cm soil (10–20 cm pot zone) and low salinity level (EC_e 2.5 dS/m, ESP 5, and Cl 100 mg/kg soil) in top 10–20 cm soil (20–30 cm pot zone). The plants were exposed to three subsoil salinity levels in the 20–90 cm subsoil (30–100 cm pot zone) namely low salinity (EC_e: 2.5 dS/m, ESP: 5, Cl: 100 mg/kg soil), medium salinity (EC_e: 4.0 dS/m, ESP: 10, Cl: 400 mg/kg) and high salinity (EC_e: 11.5 dS/m, ESP: 20, Cl: 1950 mg/kg) in the subsoil (20–90 cm soil layer: 30–100 cm pot zone). Watering of plants was withheld for 20 days commencing at either early booting or anthesis or mid grain filling, and then resumed until maturity, and these treatments were compared with no water stress. Water stress commencing at anthesis stage had the most depressing effect on grain yield and water use efficiency of wheat followed by water stress at grain filling stage and early booting stage. High subsoil salinity reduced grain yield by 39.1, 24.3%, and 13.4% respectively in plants water-stressed around anthesis, early booting, and mid grain filling compared with 36.6% in well-watered plants. There was a significant reduction in root biomass, rooting depth, water uptake and water use efficiency of wheat with increasing subsoil salinity irrespective of water regimes. Plants at high subsoil salinity had 64% of their root biomass in the top 0–30 cm soil and there was a marked reduction in subsoil water uptake. Roots also penetrated below the non-saline surface into salinised subsoil and led to attain high concentration of Na and Cl and reduced Ca/Na and K/Na ratio of flag leaf at anthesis stage. Results suggest that high subsoil salinity affects root growth and water uptake, grain yield and water use efficiency even in well water plants. Water stress at anthesis stage had the most depressing effect on wheat.
