我国桉树人工林立地土壤问题研究概况

我国引种桉树。虽已100多年，但研究桉树人工林土壤问题，却只有50多年的历史。这方面的研究，包括桉树人工林土壤本底调查、土壤性质与林木生长的关系、桉树人工林土壤肥力衰退防治、桉树人工林土壤管理、桉树速生丰产的土壤肥力指标、桉树人工林生态系统土壤养分和水分循环等。文章对这方面研究的概况作了简要的综述。     

雷州半岛桉树人工林地力退化的成因与防治措施

通过对雷州半岛桉树人工林大面积土壤调查研究和多点田间试验,揭示了桉树人工林地力退化的成因,提出了可行的防治措施。其退化成因是桉树人工林生态系统本身的脆弱性、水土流失严重、人为因素对生物积累过程的干扰、桉树全树利用方式、耕垦的不适当以及林地养分收支严重失衡。其防治措施是增加桉树人工林生物多样性、回归林地调落于土壤、应用适当的采伐利用方式和采伐剩余物的处理方式。     

桉树人工林地力衰退防治研究──改全垦为带垦

主要讨论了桉树造林整地方式──全垦与带垦对桉树生长的影响,以及对土壤侵蚀、土壤养分和土壤物理性质的影响．研究结果表明,改全垦为带垦对防止桉树人工林地力衰退有积极作用．     

桉树人工林生态系统养分循环和平衡研究Ⅱ. 桉树人工林生态系统的养分循环

根据大量的观测分析资料,论述了刚果W5桉树人工林生态系统养分的地球化学循环和生物小循环。研究结果表明,每公顷每年通过地表径流和地下渗漏从生态系统输出的养分质量以K最多,达21.25 kg/(hm2a);其次为N,达17.21 kg/(hm2a)。桉树人工林生态系统养分流通质量的净变化值f(K)、f(Ca)为负值,f(N)、f(P)、f(Mg)为正值;桉树人工林生态系统养分的生物小循环研究表明,在一个轮伐期内,每公顷桉树吸收养分的质量,依次为Ca 429.03 kg/hm2,其次为N 277.01 kg/hm2和K 208.12 kg/hm2。而在一个轮伐期中归还的养分质量,Ca只有99.78 kg/hm2,K为113.04 kg/hm2。在养分循环率方面,与热带半落叶季雨林比较,桉树人工林生态系统的养分循环率要小得多,说明桉树人工林土壤养分趋向于减少。     

广西喀斯特和红壤地区桉树人工林土壤理化性质对比研究

喀斯特地区种植桉林是恢复和改善岩溶地区生态环境及推进脱贫致富的重要措施,但其生态环境影响也是广泛关注的科学问题。选择广西桂林、扶绥两处地点,对比分析了红壤和喀斯特土壤种植桉树对土壤结构和土壤养分的影响,结果表明：（1）喀斯特地区桉林土壤容重略大于红壤、毛管孔隙度不发达,非毛管孔隙度较发达,总孔隙度小于红壤;（2）喀斯特地区桉林土壤非毛管含水量显著低于红壤,但饱和含水量基本相当;（3）喀斯特桉林土壤的全量养分多高于红壤,而一些速效养分低于红壤,尤其是钾的含量显著偏低;（4）喀斯特桉林土壤的pH值和有机质含量高于红壤。研究表明喀斯特地区种植桉树人工林并未引起土壤结构的破坏和土壤养分含量的显著降低,相反在某些方面喀斯特地区种植桉树相对于红壤还有其优势。最后,结合研究结论,该文还就喀斯特地区和红壤地区桉树人工林管理提出了一些针对性建议。

农林复合经营研究──桉树人工林间种西瓜对林木和土壤的效应

本文调查研究了雷州林业局纪家、河头林场桉树人工林间种西瓜对林木和土壤的影响．结果表明，利用造林前空隙种一造西瓜或在桉树林地间种西瓜，均有利于桉树生长．单位面积林木蓄积量和年生长量均比对照林分显著增加，经济效益显著；土壤养分也有增加。作为农林复合经营的有益尝试，值得在有条件的地区推广。     

土壤水分对幼龄桉树蒸腾和生长的影响

通过盆栽试验,研究不同土壤水分对幼龄桉树蒸腾和生长的影响.结果表明,土壤含水量越高,桉树蒸腾量越大.随着桉树增长,植株蒸腾量逐月增大,但蒸腾强度却逐月下降,说明桉树叶面积增长速度,大于蒸腾量增长速度.不同土壤水分条件下桉树的蒸腾量、蒸腾时间长短和最大蒸腾量出现的时间不同.水分亏缺对桉树的影响是多方面的,外观表现为幼嫩枝梢萎蔫,分枝少、叶片少、叶面积下降、叶色变深、变暗,植株下部叶子叶尖枯死;生理上表现为气孔导度降低,阻力增大,气孔关闭,光合速率降低,养分吸收量减少.总的影响是生长量显著降低.在试验条件下,桉树每生产1 kg干物质所付出的蒸腾耗水量与土壤水分有关,土壤干旱时桉树的水分利用效率最低.     

广西南部地区坡地桉树生长与气象因子的关系

采用偏相关、典型相关分析等方法,对广西南部地区2.5万hm2 2～8 a生桉树(Eucalyptus)的平均胸径、平均树高、单位蓄积量等生长指标与该地区的气象因子的关系进行分析,研究制约坡地桉树生长的主要因素.结果表明:(1)该地区桉树生长与气候因子间存在着较密切的相关关系,其中成年桉树的树高和单位蓄积量生长主要受最冷月平均气温、年平均气温和年降雨量的影响;(2)胸径生长受气象因子的影响较小;(3)4 a生桉树受最冷月气温、年平均气温影响较大;(4)2 a生桉树幼林平均胸径与最冷月平均气温呈极显著正相关,而与年平均气温、年降雨量呈显著正相关关系; (5)尽管降水量丰富,但由于坡地特殊的地形,年降水量仍然是制约广西南部坡地桉树人工林的主要限制因子;(6)广西南部地区太阳辐射较大,不是制约桉树生长的主要因素,故在采用3-PG模型预测桉树生长状况时,太阳辐射不是关键参数.

Competition among eucalyptus trees depends on genetic variation and resource supply

Genetic variation and environmental heterogeneity fundamentally shape the interactions between plants of the same species. According to the resource partitioning hypothesis, competition between neighbors intensifies as their similarity increases. Such competition may change in response to increasing supplies of limiting resources. We tested the resource partitioning hypothesis in stands of genetically identical (clone-origin) and genetically diverse (seed-origin) Eucalyptus trees with different water and nutrient supplies, using individual-based tree growth models. We found that genetic variation greatly reduced competitive interactions between neighboring trees, supporting the resource partitioning hypothesis. The importance of genetic variation for Eucalyptus growth patterns depended strongly on local stand structure and focal tree size. This suggests that spatial and temporal variation in the strength of species interactions leads to reversals in the growth rank of seed-origin and clone-origin trees. This study is one of the first to experimentally test the resource partitioning hypothesis for intergenotypic vs. intragenotypic interactions in trees. We provide evidence that variation at the level of genes, and not just species, is functionally important for driving individual and community-level processes in forested ecosystems.     

桉树成林无性系转化试验研究

通过近两年的桉树成林无性系转化试验,结果表明,桉树成林无性系之间扦插成活率差异显著:夏季扦插成活率高于秋季,且生根时间短,便于管理;不同浓度的ABT生根粉对桉树扦插成活率有极显著影响,以ABT(1号)生根粉100PPM浸泡3小时为最佳;不同年龄的枝条对桉树扦插成活率有显著影响,其中以当年生半木质化枝条扦插成活率为最高.     

Environmental Surrogates for Predicting and Conserving Adaptive Genetic Variability in Tree Species

Abstract: Adaptive genetic variability within species is an essential component of biodiversity but has been largely ignored in studies aimed at assessing and predicting biodiversity of the forest environment. We used factorial regression and structuring models to test easily measured surrogates, such as ecological attributes, as predictors of adaptive genetic variation between populations of a tree species ( Eucalyptus delegatensis ). Adaptive variability was defined in terms of variation in average growth performance of 68 populations and of population-by-environment interaction across seven different environments. The best surrogates of genetic variability were measures of solar radiation and temperature range, each predicting more than 50% of the genetic variability within the species. Rock and understory types, when used either alone or in combination with other covariates, also were very efficient in discriminating between populations in groups showing similar adaptation. Significant relationships between particular surrogates and growth patterns of variation were attributed to effects of natural selection that had occurred in the population source locations. We recommend the development of studies focusing on the population level of biodiversity to improve the conservation of forest ecosystems in Australia.     

桉树人工林地土壤肥力灰色关联分析

根据桉树人工林地土壤营养元素含量及土壤酶活性变化,利用灰色关联分析方法评价了桉树人工林地的土壤肥力,列出了以土壤营养元素含量及土壤酶为指标的土壤肥力水平排列顺序.文章认为,以土壤酶活性作为桉树林地土壤肥力的评价指标时,还需对它们的适宜范围作进一步探讨.     

垃圾填埋场周边桉树光合生理特性研究

为了解垃圾填埋场环境下植物的光合适应性,利用LI-6400便携式光合测定仪,以呼马山森林公园为对照,对位于昆明市东郊垃圾填埋场和对照区的直杆桉Eucalyptus maideni进行了光响应与光合日进程的测定。结果表明:填埋场直杆桉的净光合速率随光强的增加先增加后稍有下降并趋于稳定,光抑制不明显;对照的净光合速率随光强的增加先增加后缓慢下降;在相同光照强度下,填埋场直杆桉的净光合速率、蒸腾速率始终高于呼马山对照的,说明直杆桉可通过提高自身的光合能力和蒸腾速率来适应填埋场的特定环境。胞间CO2浓度随光强的增加先下降后上升,与净光合速率大体呈相反变化;蒸腾速率随光强变化的趋势与气孔导度变化相一致。另外,填埋场直杆桉净光合速率日变化呈单峰曲线,无明显"午休"现象,其变化趋势与蒸腾速率、气孔导度的大体相同。对照的净光合速率、气孔导度、蒸腾速率与填埋场的变化趋势相似,但变化幅度较少。在自然条件下,填埋场直杆桉的净光合速率和蒸腾速率仍明显高于呼马山对照的。     

Palatability mapping: a koala's eye view of spatial variation in habitat quality

Ecologists trying to understand the value of habitat to animals must first describe the value of resources contained in the habitat to animals and, second, they must describe spatial variation in resource quality at a resolution relevant to individual animal foraging. We addressed these issues in a study of koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) in a Eucalyptus woodland. We measured beneficial and deterrent chemical characteristics as well as the palatability of trees using a near-infrared spectroscopic model based on direct feeding experiments. Tree use by koalas was influenced by tree size and foliar quality but was also context-dependent: trees were more likely to be visited if they were surrounded by small, unpalatable trees or by large, palatable trees. Spatial autocorrelation analysis and several mapping approaches demonstrated that foliar quality is spatially structured in the woodland at a scale relevant to foraging decisions by koalas and that the spatial structure is an important component of habitat quality.     

硼配施多种微量元素对桉树生长的效应

针对广东省雷州半岛桉树人工林出现缺素生理病的现象,进行了桉树施硼及配施其它微量元素的田间试验,旨为桉树人工林持续发展提供依据。试验结果表明:(1)单施硼对刚果12号桉W5(Eucalyptus ABL12W5)和尾叶桉U6(Eucalyptus urophyllas U6)均有明显效果,但前者施硼的效果好于后者;(2)硼与铜、锌、铁、锰、钼等配施效果明显好于单施硼,但桉树不同树种对微量元素营养有一定的选择性;硼与铜、锌、铁、锰等配施可使刚果12W5大幅增产,而硼与钼配施对尾叶桉U6生长效应显著;(3)缺硼是诱发雷州半岛桉树缺素生理病的重要原因,施用硼可有效消除雷州半岛桉树垂稍病。     

Spatial distribution of defense chemicals and markers and the maintenance of chemical variation

Exploring the spatial distribution of variation in plant secondary metabolites is critical for understanding the evolutionary ecology of biochemical diversity in wild organisms. In the present study, concentrations of foliar sideroxylonal, an important and highly heritable defense chemical of Eucalyptus melliodora, displayed strong, fine-scale spatial autocorrelation. The spatial patterns observed could promote associational effects on herbivore foraging decisions, which may influence the selection pressures exerted on sideroxylonal content. Multiple chemical traits have roles in certain eucalypt-herbivore interactions, and the spatial characteristics of the herbivore foraging environment are therefore determined by these different factors. We used a model of E. melliodora intake by common brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula), based on the combined effects of two chemical traits, to explore this idea and found that the spatial patterns were different to those of sideroxylonal alone. Spatial genetic autocorrelation, examined using microsatellites, was strong and occurred at a fine scale, implying that restricted gene flow might allow genetic patches to respond to selection relatively independently. Local two-dimensional genetic autocorrelation, explored using a new heuristic method, was highly congruent with the pattern of local phenotypic variation observed for sideroxylonal, suggesting that the genetic variance underlying the sideroxylonal variation is similarly structured. Our results suggest that the spatial distribution of genetic and phenotypic variation could influence both the selective pressure imposed by herbivores on eucalypt defenses and the potential of populations to respond to natural selection. Spatial context should be considered in future studies of plant-herbivore interactions.
