  •   Objective  This study explore the ecological niche and interspecific association of the dominant species of woody plants in evergreen broad-leaved forest in Jinzifeng National Forest Park, Zhejiang Province, in order to provide a reference for ecological restoration and biodiversity conservation of subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest.   Method  Niche composition, niche width, niche overlap index, niche similarity coefficient, variance ratio method, $ {X}^{2} $ test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and Spearman rank correlation coefficient were used to study the niche and interspecific association of 21 dominant species of woody plants with important values ≥1%.   Result  (1) There were 113 species of woody plants belonging to 31 families and 62 genera in the evergreen broad-leaved forest community in Jinzifeng National Forest Park, including Fagaceae, Rosaceae, Lauraceae, and Ericaceae. (2) The importance values and niche widths of Schima superba, Castanopsis eyrei and Pinus taiwanensis were larger. They were established species in this community, and had higher niche overlap values and niche similarity coefficients with other dominant species of woody plants. The niche overlap values and niche similarity coefficients of 21 dominant species of woody plants were mainly concentrated in the range of 0.10 − 0.50. (3) The dominant species of evergreen broad-leaved forest woody plants in Jinzifeng National Forest Park showed a significant positive association. Among 210 species pairs, 112 species pairs showed no significant positive association, 49 species pairs showed no significant negative association, only 2 species pairs showed extremely significant positive association (P<0.01) , 8 species pairs showed significant positive association (P<0.05) , 39 species pairs showed no association. Spearman rank correlation test and Pearson correlation test showed no significant association. Species pairs accounted for 81.4% and 80.0%, respectively. The interspecific association was weak, with positive and negative association ratios greater than 1. (4) The regression analysis of Pearson correlation coefficient and niche overlap values of dominant tree species showed a extremely significant positive correlation (P<0.01).   Conclusion  The evergreen broad-leaved forest community in Jinzifeng National Forest Park is in the middle stage of succession, and the competition among species is gradually balanced.

  • 森林群落内包含着复杂的种间关系,如竞争、寄生、互利共生等[1]。生态位在研究群落物种组成、生物多样性和物种共存等方面有着重要作用[2],它是植物群落中各种群所能利用各种资源的总和及其与相关种群之间的功能关系,体现了种群在群落中的地位、作用和重要性[3],以生态位宽度和生态位重叠指数表征分别体现物种在群落中的地位和种间的联系[4]。种间联结是指不同物种在空间分布上的相互关联性,对生物多样性保护和自然植被的恢复具有一定的指导作用,对揭示群落内的种间关系、演替动态有着重要的理论意义和参考价值[5]。种间关系可分为正联结、无联结和负联结等3种。方庆等[6]认为可以保护与细果秤锤树Sinojackia microcarpa正联结性较高的物种,以期达到保护该濒危物种的目的;丁茂等[7]对落叶阔叶林进行动态监测后发现,种对间正关联数量有所增加,植被群落趋向于稳定的正演替方向发展,说明物种间的正联结性的增加能够提高森林群落的稳定性和物种多样性;杨春玉等[8]发现退化的喀斯特森林从乔灌阶段恢复到乔林阶段,物种种间正联结对数持续增加,直至形成顶级群落,解释了森林群落最终是朝着物种间互利共生和结构稳定的方向发展。但这些研究主要集中于低海拔区域,对于中高海拔地区亚热带森林群落的研究则较少。

    浙江巾子峰国家森林公园拥有原生亚热带常绿阔叶林,平均海拔800 m以上,人为活动较少,使得该区域保存有较为丰富且处于不同演替阶段的植被群落,开展该区域森林群落生态位和种间联结的研究,对于中高海拔地区常绿阔叶林的生物多样性保护具有积极意义[9]。对于研究区周边植物群落的研究主要集中在常绿阔叶林种群结构与分布格局[10]、物种组成与群落结构[11]、甜槠Castanopsis eyrei种群特征[12]等,而该地区常绿阔叶林的生态位和种间联结性的研究还未见报道。因此,本研究选取浙江巾子峰国家森林公园境内百丈林区常绿阔叶林作为研究对象,在野外调查的基础上,采用Levins生态位宽度(BL)、Shannon生态位宽度(BS)、Pianka生态位重叠指数(Oik)、Schoener系数(Cik)、方差比率(VR)、卡方检验($ {X}^{2} $)、Pearson相关系数和Spearman秩相关系数等方法,研究常绿阔叶林群落的木本植物组成以及优势种的生态位和种间联结性的关系,旨在为亚热带常绿阔叶林生物多样性和植被的保护与恢复提供参考。

    • 浙江巾子峰国家森林公园位于浙江省庆元县(27°27′~27°39′N,118°50′~119°06′E),属武夷山系洞宫山脉,总面积为5 752 hm2[13]。年均气温为17.2 ℃,最热月份均温为26.9 ℃,最冷月份均温为7.0 ℃,年均降水量为1 689.0 mm,相对湿度为75.8%,年均无霜期为256 d,主要植被类型包括常绿阔叶林、常绿-落叶阔叶混交林、针阔叶混交林、针叶林、毛竹Phyllostachys edulis林等。样地所在地土壤为黄壤。

    • 参照美国热带森林研究中心(CTFS)的方法[14],在浙江巾子峰国家森林公园境内的百丈林区(27°38′N,118°91′E)建立了1个1.4 hm2 (140 m×100 m)和6个0.4 hm2 (20 m×20 m)的常绿阔叶林长期监测样地。对样地内所有胸径(DBH)≥1 cm的木本植物进行每木检尺,并记录种名、胸径、树高、枝下高、空间坐标及生活状态等,样地基本情况如表1

    • 依据马克平等[15]的方法计算物种重要值确定优势种。

    • 依据王刚等[16]的方法计算木本植物优势种的Levins生态位宽度指数(BL)和Shannon生态位宽度指数(BS)。依据郭平平等[17]的方法计算Pianka生态位重叠指数(Oik);依据SCHOENER[18]的方法计算Schoener系数(Cik)。

    • 计算方法参照SCHLUTER[19]提出的方差比率法(VR)和检验统计量(W)。卡方检验($ {X}^{2}) $采用YATES连续矫正公式,参照江常春等[20]的方法;参照吕增伟等[21]的方法计算Spearman秩相关系数和Pearson相关系数。

      Spearman检验结果如图2A表5所示。呈正联结的种对有142对,占总种对数的67.6%。其中,呈极显著正联结(P<0.01)的种对有21对,显著正联结(P<0.05)的种对有14对。呈负联结的种对有68对,占总种对数的32.4%。其中,呈现显著负联结(P<0.01)的种对有1对,显著负联结(P<0.05)的种对有4对。极显著和显著正、负联结比值为7∶1。Spearman秩相关系数分析仍保持与卡方检验相一致的结果。

      Pearson检验结果如图2B表5所示。在210个种对中,呈正联结的有128对,占总对数的60.96%;呈负联结的有82对,占总对数的39.04%。在正联结的128个种对中,呈极显著正联结(P<0.01)的有25对,显著正联结(P<0.05)的有14对;在负联结的82个种对中,呈极显著负联结(P<0.01)的有1对,显著负联结(P<0.05)的有2对。极显著和显著正、负联结比值为13∶1。Pearson相关系数分析发现,不显著联结(P>0.05)的种对数仍保持较大一部分,这符合卡方的检验结果。

    • 木本植物优势种的Pearson相关系数与生态位重叠指数的回归分析如图3所示,木本植物优势种种间联结与生态位重叠呈极显著正相关(P<0.01)。

    • 在浙江巾子峰国家森林公园常绿阔叶林中,木荷、甜槠和黄山松的重要值、生态位宽度较大。在一个群落中,某一物种的重要值与生态位宽度呈正相关,即重要值越大,其生态位宽度也越大[23],但叶兴状等[24]研究发现,福建天台山半枫荷Semiliquidambar cathayensis群落中重要值排第2位的半枫荷,其生态位宽度却排第4位。本研究中,黄山松的生态位宽度最大,其次是甜槠和木荷;木荷虽然在该群落中的重要值最大,但其生态位宽度略低于黄山松和甜槠。大萼黄瑞木Adinandra glischroloma var. macrosepala的重要值虽然排在第7位,但其生态位宽度最小,结合实际野外调查,大萼黄瑞木高度聚集分布在同一个样方中,其重要值大小和生态位宽度在一定程度上受到分布频度的影响,这与刘雨婷等[25]的研究结果相似,表明它对该群落环境的适应性和资源的利用能力不全面,竞争性较弱,有可能发展为特化种。

      生态位重叠指数和生态位相似比系数可以反映物种对资源的利用程度和环境的适应性[26]。物种的生态位宽度越大,则生态位重叠指数越大,对有共同需求的资源竞争压力也越大[27]。本研究发现,生态位宽度最大的黄山松与甜槠、锥栗、马银花Rhododendron ovatum、麂角杜鹃Rhododendron latoucheae、江南山柳Clethra delavayi、野漆树、短柄枹栎Quercus glandulifera、江南越橘Vaccinium mandarinorum、黄背越橘Vaccinium iteophyllum和薄叶山矾的生态位重叠指数和生态位相似比系数均超过0.50。吴友贵等[28]发现生态位宽度最大的多脉青冈Cyclobalanopsis multinervis、麂角杜鹃和窄基红褐柃Eurya rubiginosa之间的生态位相似比系数都大于0.7。本研究表明:生态位宽度较小的微毛柃Eurya hebeclados-大萼黄瑞木的生态位重叠值和生态位相似比系数均较大,其值分别为0.82 和0.52,与栾兆平等[29]研究结果相似,即生态位宽度较小的物种,其生态位重叠指数超过了0.90。

      种间联结是物种在空间上的不同关系,是物种对环境的适应性和对资源利用相似性的体现[30]。浙江巾子峰国家森林公园常绿阔叶林木本植物优势种总体呈显著正联结。结合卡方检验、Spearman秩相关系数和Pearson相关系数可以较好地判断群落中木本植物优势种种对间的联结性,发现呈正联结的种对数大于负联结的种对数,极显著或显著正联结的种对数也大于极显著或显著负联结的种对数,表明该群落属于演替中期,种间的竞争和协作逐渐平衡。可能与该样地海拔较高,人为活动较少有关[26]。张滋芳等[31]认为物种间有相似环境适应性和资源需求,往往会产生正向联系。本研究马银花与麂角杜鹃、黄背越橘,江南越橘与黄背越橘、麂角杜鹃均呈极显著正联结,因为4种植物均为杜鹃花科灌木,有着相似的生态习性;短柄枹栎与锥栗、吴茱萸五加Gamblea ciliataevodiifolia的生态位宽度在木本植物优势种中占据较高位置,也呈极显著正联结,这与张盟等[4]发现有着紧密正联结的物种往往占据较高生态位宽度相似。而红楠Machilus thunbergii-甜槠呈极显著负联结,可能是甜槠多为大径个体,红楠以小径个体为主,高大繁茂的甜槠限制了树高较小的红楠生长。短柄枹栎-木荷呈显著负联结,因为木荷为常绿树种,短柄枹栎为落叶树种,2个物种对光照、水分等需求不同,这与罗敏贤等[32]认为常绿树种和落叶树种生长所需光性不同,会导致物种间呈显著负联结相一致。

      植物之间生态位重叠值与种间联结若呈正联结,表明其存在不同程度的生态位重叠,反之亦然[33]。在本研究发现,浙江巾子峰国家森林公园主要优势树种的Pearson相关系数与生态位重叠的回归分析呈极显著正相关,如马银花-麂角杜鹃种对间呈极显著正联结,种对间的Pianka重叠值为0.84,其Pearson相关系数为0.69,呈正向关系,这与郑俊鸣等[34]认为物种种间正联结越强,其生态位重叠指数也越大的研究结果相似。

    • 浙江巾子峰国家森林公园常绿阔叶林属于比较稳定的生态系统,可以选择具有较宽的生态位和适应性较强的树种,如木荷、甜槠、锥栗、马尾松、马银花、麂角杜鹃和短柄枹栎等作为自然植被恢复的优先树种;而对于小叶青冈Cyclobalanopsis gracilis、大萼黄瑞木、薄叶山矾、云山青冈Cyclobalanopsis sessilifolia和红楠等树种,其生态位重叠值和生态位相似系数较低,生态位宽度也较低,应在自然植被恢复和生物多样性保护中进行一定调控。

    • 巾子峰国家森林公园常绿阔叶林群落物种多样性较丰富,部分物种对资源的需求有一定的相似性;物种总体呈显著正联结,种间关系较松散,各种对间的关联较弱,该群落逐渐趋于平衡阶段,各物种之间竞争较小。因此,在该地区可以选择有相似的生境需求和较宽生态位的优势乡土树种,调控生态位较小的树种,以期实现该地区群落正向演替。
