复合农药胁迫下黑土土壤微生物生态过程及分子生态学研究

利用传统及分子微生物生态学研究方法，研究了在乙草胺、甲胺磷、铜离子及二元组合胁迫下，黑土中六种类群微生物数量，细菌种群多样性，微生物碳源代谢（BloLoGGN）功能多样性及特征、土壤脱氢酶活性（DHA）、底物诱导呼吸强度（SIR）等土壤微生物特性的生态过程及变化规律。结果表明：所有农药处理，均对细菌、放线菌及磷细菌产生明显急性毒性效应；对土壤自生固氮菌及硅酸盐细菌生长产生长期的慢性毒性效应；对土壤真菌产生强烈的刺激效应，使土壤真菌数量显著升高。由165 ONA-PCR-DGGE方法对土壤细菌研究结果显示，所有农药胁迫均使土壤细菌多样度降低、细菌种群结构受到严重影响；土壤微生物群落代谢功能多样性及指纹特征因农药种类，浓度及组合不同，受到不同程度影响，功能多样性降低，代谢指纹特征被改变：所有农药组合处理均使土壤DHA受到长期抑制，对土壤底物诱导呼吸强度无显著影响，但改变了土壤DHA和S工R的动态变化规律。野外农药长期作用使土壤SIR与对照无显著差异，土壤DHA明显降低，土壤细菌、磷细菌、固氮菌及硅酸盐细菌数量明显减少，土壤真菌数量显著升高。由农药及其组合处理与土壤微生物群落生长剂量一效应关系，证明：三种农药对土壤微生物群落生长随投加农药种类、浓度和组合不同起促进或抑制双重作用；组合使相应单因子农药毒性增强，表现出协同或加和毒性效应；从清洁土壤中筛选出一株乙草胺耐受菌产酸克雷伯氏菌（Klebbsirlla oxytoca），在固体平板培养基上能耐受300omg·L-1乙草胺。

岷江源头区植被景观与流域土壤侵蚀的动态相关性

作为复杂的生态过程之一，土壤侵蚀常常被空间景观异质性影响。深入地研究土壤侵蚀与植被景观的相关性对以减少水土流失为目的的河流中上游生态恢复工作来说十分重要。本文利用遥感和GIS 技术，对岷江源头区的植被景观和土壤侵蚀动态（1974年～2002 年）进行分析，并从景观生态学的角度，系统地研究了整体植被景观和不同的植被景观类型的景观特征与土壤侵蚀量、侵蚀模数以及土壤侵蚀强度的相关性，得出的结论主要有以下几个方面：1. 从植被景观特征与土壤侵蚀量和土壤侵蚀模数的相关性的角度出发，森林能最大限度地控制土壤侵蚀，草地对土壤侵蚀的控制能力不及森林，而且能在一定程度上增加土壤侵蚀。灌丛与土壤侵蚀量和土壤侵蚀模数的关系则比较复杂，还需要进一步地研究。农用地与森林、灌丛、草地等植被类型不同，它的增加将会明显地增加产沙量。随着各景观类型（灌丛除外）分布的镶嵌性的增强，土壤侵蚀量和侵蚀模数会减少。2. 从植被景观特征与土壤侵蚀强度的相关性的角度出发，在景观水平上，植被景观的景观多样性指数、景观破碎度指数、景观形状指数和景观聚集度指数均与土壤侵蚀强度有明显的相关性。在较轻侵蚀强度的区域中的植被景观具有更丰富的多样性和更低的破碎程度，景观的组分和结构都更加复杂，景观斑块的形状也比较复杂。同时，植被景观的空间异质性也较强。3. 从不同景观类型对土壤侵蚀强度的控制能力大小看：针叶林> 落叶阔叶林>针阔混交林> 灌丛> 草地> 农用地。同时，对于除农用地以外的其他植被景观类型来说，增加其平均斑块面积和形状的复杂性会在一定程度上减少土壤侵蚀强度。而对于农用地来说，斑块形状的简单化以及分布形式的均匀镶嵌化则是减少土壤侵蚀强度的有效手段。 As a complex ecological process, soil erosion is affected by the spatial landscape heterogeneity.The relation between soil erosion and landscape characteristic weights a lot in ecosystemrestoration that aim to control the soil erosion in watershed. By means of RS and GIStechniques, this study analyzed dynamic variations in landscape characteristic and soil erosionin the Minjiang headwater region over a period of 28 years to elucidate the interrelationshipsbetween landscape characteristics and soil erosion. The results are as follows:1. In terms of relation between landscape characteristics and soil erosion module, forest canmitigate the soil erosion much better than grass. The relation between shrub and soil erosionmodule is rather complicated that requests further more study to confirm how those two factorscorrelated with each other. Cultivated land differs from other landscape classes in creatingconditions most favorable for soil erosion. Moreover, the dispersion of all landscape classes,except for shrub, correlates with soil module negatively.II2. In terms of relation between landscape characteristics and soil erosion strength, the diversityindex, fragment index, shape index and contagion index of the vegetation in Minjiangheadwater region at landscape-level correlated with soil erosion clearly. Vegetation landscapein No and Slight erosion region is more diverse, fragmental and constructed in more complexway. The shape of those vegetation patches is also more complicated. The spatial heterogeneityof the vegetation landscape is much more evident than that located in moderate and strong erosion region too.3. At class-level, different landscape classes affected soil erosion strength in different ways.Taking the mitigating effect on erosion strength into consideration, landscape classes can bearranged in this turn: coniferous forest > Deciduous forest > Mixed forest > Shrub > Grassland > Cultivated land. At the same time, for most landscape classes, except for cultivated land,increase the mean patch size and complicate the shape of patch will help to relieve the erosionstrength. However, for cultivated land, simplifying the shape of patch and scattering thepatches have the same effect.

Simulation study of China's net primary production

Spatial and temporal distribution of vegetation net primary production (NPP) in China was studied using three light-use efficiency models (CASA, GLOPEM and GEOLUE) and two mechanistic ecological process models (CEVSA, GEOPRO). Based on spatial and temporal analysis (e.g. monthly, seasonally and annually) of simulated results from ecological process mechanism models of CASA, GLOPEM and CEVSA, the following conclusions could be made: (1) during the last 20 years, NPP change in China followed closely the seasonal change of climate affected by monsoon with an overall trend of increasing; (2) simulated average seasonal NPP was: 0.571 +/- 0.2 GtC in spring, 1.573 +/- 0.4 GtC in summer, 0.6 +/- 0.2 GtC in autumn, and 0.12 +/- 0.1 GtC in winter. Average annual NPP in China was 2.864 +/- 1 GtC. All the five models were able to simulate seasonal and spatial features of biomass for different ecological types in China. This paper provides a baseline for China's total biomass production. It also offers a means of estimating the NPP change due to afforestation, reforestation, conservation and other human activities and could aid people in using for-mentioned carbon sinks to fulfill China's commitment of reducing greenhouse gases.

The youngest split in sympatric schizothoracine fish (Cyprinidae) is shaped by ecological adaptations in a Tibetan Plateau glacier lake

Although new empirical evidence shows that sympatric speciation has occurred in some species, there are few indisputable model organisms for this process of speciation. The two subspecies (Gymnocypris eckloni eckloni and G. e. scoliostomus) of the schizothoracine Gymnocypris fish species complex from a small glacier lake in the Tibetan Plateau, Lake Sunmcuo, fit several of the key characteristics of the sympatric speciation model. We used combined mitochondrial control region sequences and the cytochrome b gene (1894 bp) to address the phylogenetics and population genetics of 232 specimens of G. e. eckloni and G. e. scoliostomus, as well as all of its closely related sister species. We found that: (i) a total of four old lineages were uncovered in the widespread G. e. eckloni, of which only one was shown to be shared with all G. e. scoliostomus individuals and (ii) the new subspecies (G. e. scoliostomus) evolved in Lake Sunmcuo from the ancestral G. e. eckloni population within approximately 0.057 Ma. These two taxa of the species complex are morphologically distinct, and reproductive isolation is further suggested. Ecological disruptive selection based on morphological traits (e.g. mouth cleft characters) and food utilization may be a mechanism of incipient speciation of two sympatric populations within Lake Sunmcuo. This study provides the first genetic evidence for sympatric speciation in the schizothoracine fish.
