摘要: 为揭示草地退化对优势种根系性状的影响,本研究以温带草原羊草(Leymus chinensis)为研究对象,设置未退化(Undegraded grassland, UD)、轻度退化(Lightly degraded grassland, L)、中度退化(Moderately degraded grassland, M)、重度退化(Highly degraded grassland, H)4种退化程度的草地,通过测定羊草根系总根长(Total root length, TRL)、根深度(Root depth,RD)、根体积(Root volume,RV)、表面积(Root surface area,RSA)、比根面积(Specific root area,SRA)、根系组织密度(Root tissue density,RTD)、比根长(Specific root length,SRL)和根长密度(Root length density,RLD),分析羊草根系对不同退化程度的响应。结果表明:重度退化草地中TRL(19.91 m)显著高于未退化草地(9.32 m),而RSA(19.12 cm2 )和SRL(5.51 m·g-1)显著低于未退化草地(RSA为56.12 cm2 ,SRL为14.34 m·g-1)。轻度退化草地SRA(42.82 cm2 )高于其他退化草地;RTD随退化程度加剧而增加,重度退化草地最高(1.14 g·cm-3)。研究表明,羊草通过调整根系形态特征来适应草地退化的胁迫。

Abstract: To investigate the impacts of grassland degradation on root traits of dominant species, we selected dominant species of temperate grasslands, Leymus chinensis, as object to evaluate its dynamics of root traits in four degradation level of grasslands: undegraded grassland (UD), lightly degraded grassland (L), moderately degraded grassland (M), and highly degraded grassland (H). The root traits included total root length (TRL), root depth (RD), root volume (RV), root surface area (RSA), specific root area (SRA), root tissue density (RTD), specific root length (SRL), and root length density (RLD). The results showed that TRL was significantly higher in highly degraded grassland (19.91 m) than in undegraded grassland (9.32 m), while RSA (19.12 cm2) and SRL (5.51 m·g-1) were significantly lower compared to undegraded grassland (RSA 56.12 cm2, SRL 14.34 m·g-1). SRAwas higher in lightly degraded grassland (42.82 cm2 ) than in other degraded grasslands. RTD increased with increasing degradation intensity, reaching its maximum in highly degraded grassland (1.14 g·cm-3). These findings suggest that Leymus chinensis adapts to grassland degradation stress by altering root morphology.
