摘要
为探究神农架大九湖泥炭藓湿地的关键物种大泥炭藓(Sphagnum palustre L.)种群的分布特征及其制约因素,于2020年8月沿垂直湖岸带方向设置样带和样方进行植被和环境因子的调查和采样,于室内进行各理化指标和生理指标的测定与分析。研究结果显示:(1)大泥炭藓三生长指标(头状枝数量、盖度、生物量)对垂直湖岸带距离的响应具有一致性,均随垂直湖岸带距离的增加呈现先增加后减小的趋势,在距湖岸40m左右时,大泥炭藓种群生产力最高;(2)多元线性回归分析结果显示,在20个环境因子(土壤含水量、容重、孔隙度、固相比、液相比、气相比、pH、TN、TP、TOC、AHN、AP、TOC/TN、TOC/TP、TN/TP;地下水埋深;水样pH、TN、TP、TN/TP)中,地下水埋深是影响大泥炭藓种群生长和分布的最重要环境因子,其次是土壤TOC/TP;在8个生理指标(组织TC、TN、TP、TC/TN、TC/TP、TN/TP、总叶绿素、类胡萝卜素)中,组织TC与大泥炭藓生长显著相关;(3)地下水埋深通过影响大泥炭藓头状枝的光合和呼吸作用,土壤TOC通过影响大泥炭藓吸收同化到自身组织中的TC含量,来影响其种群的生长和分布;(4)除了非生物因子,维管植物的种间作用等生物因子也影响着大泥炭藓种群的生长和分布。本研究可为亚热带山地泥炭藓湿地的保护和恢复提供理论依据和科学指导。
Sphagnum species,as the peatland ecosystem engineer,play a key role in both succession of plant communities and development of ecological functions in Sphagnum wetlands.In order to explore the distribution characteristics and its influencing factors of the key species—Sphagnum palustre L.population in Sphagnum wetland of Dajiu Lake,Shennongjia,we carried out the field investigation and sampling for both vegetation and environmental factors in August 2020,by setting belt transects and quadrats along the outward direction perpendicular to lakeshore.A total of 33 quadrats including 11 types of plant communities were investigated and the corresponding soil and pore water samples were collected,then a series of physical and chemical indicators and physiological indicators were determined and analyzed in the laboratory.Combined curvilinear regression analysis,multiple linear regression analysis with Pearson correlation analysis,our results showed that:(1)with the increasing vertical distance away from lakeshore,each of the three growth indicators(number of capitula,coverage,and biomass)of S.palustre showed the increased trend at first and then decreased,with the largest productivity of S.palustre population occurred at about 40 m away from the lakeshore vertically.(2)The multiple linear regression analysis showed that among the twenty environmental factors,water table depth was the most important one affecting growth and distribution characteristics of S.palustre population,followed by the soil ratio of total organic carbon content to total phosphorus content(TOC/TP).Among the eight physiological indicators[the tissue total carbon content(TC),the tissue total nitrogen content(TN),the tissue total phosphorus content(TP),the tissue ratio of total carbon content to total nitrogen content(TC/TN),the tissue ratio of total carbon content to total phosphorus content(TC/TP),the tissue ratio of total nitrogen content to total phosphorus content(TN/TP),total chlorophyll content,and carotenoids content],only tissue TC significantly affected S.palustre growth and thus its population distribution characteristics.(3)Water table depth affected photosynthesis and respiration of S.palustre capitula,and soil total organic carbon content(TOC)affected C absorption and C assimilation in S.palustre tissue,which further affected its population growth and distribution characteristics.(4)In addition to abiotic factors,the biotic factors such as the interspecific interaction of vascular plants also played the important roles in the growth and distribution characteristics of S.palustre population.Compared with Veratrum nigrum,which had dense lamina at its basal section of stem and thus larger shading coefficient,the sedge plant Eriophorum comosum,at coverage of 60%,was more favorable for S.palustre.This study provides scientific guidance for Sphagnum wetlands protection and restoration in the subtropical mountain regions.
