摘要: 细根生物量是量化细根周转及其养分归还等动态特征的基础。喀斯特基岩裸露、土壤多碎石的生境, 决定了传统根钻法测定细根生物量耗时耗力、破坏性大且难做到定点取样, 样本异质性大。因此, 有必要建立以细根形态数据获取手段为基础的细根生物量估算模型, 定点、准确地估算地下根系生物量及其细根周转速率。以广西弄岗国家级自然保护区5种优势树种广西牡荆(Vitex kwangsiensis)、金丝李(Garcinia paucinervis)、米扬噎(Streblus tonkinensis)、山榄叶柿(Diospyros siderophylla)和蚬木(Excentrodendron tonkinense)为研究对象, 综合不同径级和土层, 获取1-3级与直径≤2 mm两种细根分类样本, 分别构建细根长度和直径或根表面积与细根生物量的关联方程, 并检验模型的稳健性和精确度, 筛选最优细根生物量估算模型。结果表明: (1)细根直径、长度或表面积均与细根生物量显著正相关, 能以其为变量构建细根形态指标与生物量的关联方程; (2)基于直径和长度构建的二变量细根生物量估算模型比以细根表面积构建的单变量模型模拟结果更为精确; (3)树种间细根直径、比根长和组织密度存在差异, 导致不同树种细根生物量最优估算模型不同。该研究基于细根形态指标构建细根生物量估算模型, 为今后通过微根管等可视化技术实现喀斯特定点监测的细根形态数据向生物量数据转化奠定基础, 有助于更加精确地估算特殊石山生境细根周转速率及其养分归还。

Abstract:

Aims Fine root biomass is the basis for quantifying fine root dynamic characteristics, such as fine root turnover and nutrient return. The special karst habitat with high-rock outcrops and gravel soil indicates that the traditional root drilling method for measuring fine root biomass is time-consuming, labor-intensive, destructive, and difficult to achieve site-specific sampling, and the sample heterogeneity is large. Therefore, it is necessary to establish fine root biomass estimation models based on morphological characteristics to accurately estimate fine root biomass and its turnover rate.

Methods Five dominant tree species, Vitex kwangsiensis, Garcinia paucinervis, Streblus tonkinensis, Diospyros siderophylla, and Excentrodendron tonkinense in Nonggang National Nature Reserve, Guangxi, were selected to establish fine root biomass estimation models. Two types of fine root classification were defined as 1-3 orders and diameters ≤2 mm. Quantitative correlations between length and diameter, root surface area, and fine root biomass were established based on the collected data. Subsequently, the robustness and accuracy of different models were tested, and optimal fine root biomass estimation models were selected.

Important findings The results showed that: (1) fine root diameter, length, and surface area were significantly positively correlated with fine root biomass; thus, the fine root morphological characteristics can be used to construct the correlation equation with fine root biomass; and (2) the bivariate fine root biomass estimation model based on diameter and length is more accurate than that based on fine root surface area; (3) the optimal estimation models of fine root biomass are different among tree species, due to the differences in fine root diameter, specific root length, and root tissue density among tree species. The construction of a fine root biomass estimation model based on fine root morphological indicators is beneficial for converting the obtained fine root morphological data using visualization technology, such as micro-root canal in a fixed location, into biomass data. Moreover, it is also helpful to estimate the fine root turnover rate and nutrient return of special rock mountain habitats more accurately.
