  •   Objective  The study on the changes of ecological stoichiometric characteristics of non-structural carbohydrate, carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus in the growing season of middle-aged and young Pinus koraiensis plantations can further understand of the nutrient utilization strategies of conifer species at different ages during the growing season.  Method  The changes in non-structural carbohydrate (NSC), soluble sugar, starch, carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) stoichiometry in the needles and branches of young (15-year-old) and middle-aged (50-year-old) P. koraiensis were studied.   Result  (1) In the growing season, the contents of soluble sugar, NSC, P and C/N in the needles of middle-aged and young forests first decreased and then increased, while the contents of C and N, C/P and N/P showed the opposite trend; the seasonal changes in the branches of middle-aged and young P. koraiensis were different. (2) The contents of soluble sugar, NSC, N and N/P in the needles were greater than those in the branches, while C/N was smaller than that in the branches. (3) The soluble sugar content in middle-aged forests was higher than that in young forests, the starch, N and N/P in the needles were lower than those in young forests, the contents of NSC and C/N were slightly higher than those in young forests. (4) The correlations of NSC and C, N and P contents between the branches and needles of middle-aged and young forests were different.   Conclusion  The contents of NSC and its components, C, N and P contents have seasonal fluctuations, and the nutrient utilization of middle-aged and young P. koraiensis is different. In the Caohekou area of Benxi City, Liaoning Province, middle-aged and young P. koraiensis show N limitation, and could be supplemented with nitrogen fertilizer in early spring.

  • 碳(C)、氮(N)、磷(P)是植物细胞结构组成和功能代谢中重要的元素,参与植物生长发育的多个生理过程[1],C、N、P含量及其化学计量比可反映植物的生长策略和环境适应性[2],是判断土壤营养元素限制的重要工具[3]。非结构性碳水化合物(NSC)主要由可溶性糖和淀粉组成,两者在一定条件下相互转化,能有效反映植物碳吸收和碳消耗的关系[4]。植物NSC、C、N、P单独和交互效应可以影响植物的生存和生长策略[56]

    植物的生态化学计量特征和NSC含量与物种、发育阶段、环境、器官等因素有关[78]。研究表明:林龄的变化可能引起森林组成结构、土壤性质的改变,进而影响养分的分配格局[9]。杉木Cunninghamia lanceolata各器官中养分含量随着林分年龄的增加而降低[10],刺槐Robinia pseudoacacia叶片NSC含量随林龄的增加先增加后减小,枝、干和根NSC含量则逐渐增加[11]。植物的各器官能根据不同生长阶段的养分需求调整NSC、C、N、P的分配。任鹏等[12]发现:生长季内水曲柳Fraxinus mandshurica叶片N、P含量逐渐降低,C/N和C/P相反。章异平等[13]对栓皮栎Quercus variabilis研究发现:枝条NSC含量随季节波动较小,叶片NSC含量存在明显的季节波动。在不同林龄林分中开展NSC及各组分、C、N、P化学计量特征的动态研究有利于了解林分在1 a中的生长状态及生态策略。

    红松Pinus koraiensis是东北温带地带性顶级群落阔叶红松林的建群种,具有重要的经济价值和生态价值,属半阳性树种。目前,有学者对红松群落特征、速生技术、环境适应性等方面开展了研究[14],然而对生长季不同林龄红松枝叶的养分与光合产物分配的研究较少。因此,本研究以中、幼龄红松人工林为研究对象,分析其针叶和枝C、N、P的化学计量特征及NSC合成规律,以期为揭示辽东地区针叶树种的养分循环特征,提升红松产量提供理论依据。

    • 研究区位于辽宁省本溪市草河口镇辽宁省森林经营研究所实验林场(40°85′N, 123°92′E)。该区平均海拔为645 m,地带性土壤为山地棕色森林土,pH为5.3~6.3。属于温带大陆性季风气候,年平均气温为6.5 ℃,最高气温为32.0 ℃,最低气温为−33.0 ℃,年均降水量约900.0 mm,年均无霜期约127.0 d。

    • 按照《主要树种龄级与龄组划分》(LY/T 2908—2017)[15],≤40 年生红松人工林为幼龄林,41~60年生红松人工林为中龄林。本研究选择辽宁省本溪市草河口镇15年生红松人工林(幼龄林)、50年生红松人工林(中龄林)为研究对象,每个林龄内选择长势良好、分布均匀的地段分别设置3个20 m×20 m的样方,对样方内胸径≥5 cm的红松进行每木检尺,同时记录样地的基本信息(表1)。

      林分类型 林龄/a 土壤类型 坡向 坡位 平均树高/m 平均胸径/cm 土壤全氮/(g·kg−1) 土壤全磷/(g·kg−1) 土壤全钾/(g·kg−1)
      幼龄林 15 棕壤 8.23 14.93 2.53 0.61 14.70
      中龄林 50 棕壤 27.80 30.76 2.32 0.54 15.62

      Table 1.  Basic characteristics of sample plots

      根据样方调查结果,每个样方内选择3株长势相似、生长健康、光照条件良好的红松标准木作为样树,于2023年春季(5月中旬)、夏季(7月中旬)、秋季(9月初)采集南向红松的1年生针叶和枝,每次采集36份样品,共108份样品。采集的样品用纯净水清洗后,于105 ℃杀青30 min,65 ℃烘干至恒量。粉碎后过100目筛进行可溶性糖、淀粉、C、N、P的测定。采用蒽酮硫酸法[16]测定可溶性糖和淀粉,全碳、全氮用碳氮分析仪(Elementar High TOCⅡ+N)测定,全磷经浓硫酸-过氧化氢消煮后用流动分析仪(San++System)测定。

    • 使用SPSS 25.0中双因素方差分析检验月份、器官和林龄对NSC及其组分、C、N、P质量分数及生态化学计量比的影响,单因素方差分析比较中、幼龄红松人工林各月份可溶性糖、淀粉、NSC、C、N、P质量分数及生态化学计量比的差异,同时用Dunch进行多重比较。采用Pearson相关分析法,对各项数据进行相关性分析,Origin 2021和Excel 2021进行绘图和表格制作。

    • 非结构性碳水化合物的动态变化与植物的新陈代谢、防御、渗透保护和调节等密切相关[17]。本研究红松中龄林针叶的可溶性糖、NSC质量分数高于幼龄林,淀粉质量分数低于幼龄林。产生差异的原因可能是由于中龄林针叶光合能力增强,光合产物量增加,有利于提高红松中龄林在不良环境中的抵抗能力;另一方面,针叶中储存的淀粉转化为可溶性糖,以维持其旺盛的生命活动。中龄林枝的7月可溶性糖质量分数显著高于幼龄林,淀粉和NSC质量分数则相反,说明中龄林在生长旺盛期,为维持针叶的光合速率,保证红松的碳固定量,枝中可溶性糖可能向叶中转移[18]

      NSC及其组分的变化与物种、物候、生活型等因素有关[1920]。本研究2个林龄红松针叶NSC和可溶性糖质量分数在生长季呈先下降后上升的趋势,这与SONG等[21]、SCHOONMAKER等 [22]的结论一致。在红松速生期,光合产物积累能力虽然增强,但物质能量消耗大于积累,导致速生期可溶性糖和NSC的损耗;生长初期和末期,生长损耗减少,NSC开始积累,以抵御冬季的寒冷气候。红松针叶可溶性糖和NSC质量分数均高于枝,针叶作为碳源通常具有较高的可溶性糖和NSC储量,这是植物应对贫瘠环境的重要生存机制[23]

    • 不同林龄林分在林分结构、土壤的理化性质等方面存在差异,导致养分利用策略产生变化[24]。本研究中林龄对N质量分数的影响显著,幼龄林速生期的枝叶N质量分数显著高于中龄林,这可能是红松中龄林具有较高的生长速率,植物的生理活动加强,物质合成增多,对N的消耗升高[9]。赵敏等[25]对刺槐的研究也发现:不同林龄刺槐N含量随着林龄增加有先降低后升高的趋势。C/N和C/P与植物生长速率和碳同化能力有关[26]。本研究红松中龄林9月针叶C/N、7月枝的C/N、C/P显著大于幼龄林,说明中龄林N同化能力可能大于幼龄林,50年生的红松中龄林仍具有很高的生长潜力。

      N、P质量分数及C、N、P化学计量比的季节性变化差异较大,这与树种、环境等因素有关,同一地区的同种植物因年份、林龄差异也会呈现不同的变化规律[27]。N、P质量分数的升高与植物生长旺盛期需要合成大量的核酸和蛋白质导致养分积累有关[28],降低则与植物的养分稀释作用有关[4]。叶片是反映植物养分需求变化的重要器官。本研究中2个林龄红松针叶N质量分数呈先上升后下降趋势,P质量分数则相反,说明针叶P质量分数可能对养分稀释作用更敏感。本研究幼龄林枝中N质量分数和中龄林枝的P质量分数变化趋势与其针叶不同,而枝和针叶在C、N、P的利用间存在相关性,说明随着林木养分需求变化,N、P可能在枝叶间发生养分转移[29],以维持植物生长。

      本研究中,2个林龄红松针叶和枝N、P质量分数差异较大,针叶N、P质量分数明显高于枝,这与对柠檬醛型樟Cinnamomum camphora[30]的研究结果一致。叶是光合作用的主要场所,是植物生命活动最活跃的部位,因此养分积累较高,枝是运输器官,养分积累少。枝中C/N和C/P大于针叶,这主要是由于枝叶间C质量分数差异不大,N、P质量分数差异是导致枝和叶的化学计量特征差异的主要原因。N/P是衡量生物体营养状况和判断植物群落受养分限制情况的重要指标。针叶中N/P可以判断养分限制,N/P临界值的阈值受到研究区域、生态系统以及植被类型等因素的影响。KOERSELMAN等[3]以N/P>16和N/P<14判断植物是否受氮磷限制,GÜSEWELL[31]则以N/P<10和N/P>20判断养分限制。本研究依据GÜSEWELL[31]的判断标准,本溪市草河口地区中、幼龄红松人工林主要表现为N限制,夏季N限制减缓。

    • 本研究中、幼龄红松人工林的NSC、C、N、P的生态化学计量比存在差异,随着林龄增加,枝和叶中分配的可溶性糖质量分数增加、针叶分配的N质量分数减少。红松针叶可溶性糖、NSC和N质量分数大于枝。中、幼龄林红松针叶可溶性糖、NSC和P质量分数,C/N均在夏季较低,春、秋较高,N质量分数、C/P、N/P则相反;中、幼龄红松人工林生长季枝的季节变化趋势存在差异。可见,辽宁省本溪市草河口地区中、幼龄红松人工林均表现为N限制,可在5月前适量施用以氮肥为主的复合肥以供红松的生长需求。
