黄土高原草地封育与放牧条件下土壤种子库特征

对半干旱区黄土高原草地在封育和放牧条件下土壤种子库种子密度、种子库组成、种子库物种多样性及均匀性进行了比较研究,并得出主要结论:1)封育提高土壤种子库的植物种类和密度,使优良禾草和多年生植物增加。2)种子库的垂直分布规律是随着土层的加深,种子在数量上递减的速度较快。3)坡向和坡位对土壤种子库有较大影响,种子库密度变化趋势是阴坡>阳坡;坡下部>坡中部>坡上部。4)从丰富度、Shannon-Wiener多样性和均匀性3个方面比较分析封育和放牧样地土壤种子库多样性,得出封育样地Margalef丰富度指数和Shannon-Wiener指数都高于放牧地,Pielou均匀性指数低于放牧地。

Characteristics of soil seed bank,such as species composition,density and diversity in semiarid grassland on loess plateau under fencing and grazing conditions were investigated.The main inclusions were: 1) fencing greatly increased plant species and density of soil seed banks,palatable grass and perennial plant increased;2) with the increasing soil depth,seeds decreased quickly;3)Slope direction and position had a tremendous effect on soil seed banks.Density followed the order of southern slope > northe...
