Abstract

Abstract: Functional traits can be used to quantify the physiological and ecological characteristics of plants and to predict ecosystem functions. To explore the impact of plant functional traits on the yield and stability of native plant mixed sowing grassland,in this study we used native plants Leymus chinensis, Leymus secalinus, Medicago ruthenica,and the non-native plant Medicago sativa as experimental materials. The experiments were set up with monoculture of each species,mixture sowing of Leymus chinensis-Medicago ruthenica,Leymus chinensis-Medicago ruthenica-Leymus secalinus,and Leymus chinensis-Medicago ruthenica-Leymus secalinus-Medicago sativa. The differencesof yield and stability under different treatments were compared. Based on the weighted mean and functional diversity of plant traits the impact of functional traits on community yield and stability were explored. The results showed that two-species and three-species mixture sowing had lower yields. The stability of three-species and four-species communities was higher than two-species communities during most of the periods. The promotion of functional diversity was beneficial for maintaining community stability. The increased of photosynthetic rate and respiration rate had a negative impact on stability. The yield of mixture sowing treatments didn’t significantly increase,and the stability of two-species combination was poor. The key factors influencing stability changes were photosynthetic rate,respiration rate,and functional diversity.

Key words: Native plants, Mixed sowing, Functional traits, Functional diversity, Niche complementary effect

摘要： 功能性状能够量化植物生理生态特征并预测生态系统功能。为探究功能性状对乡土植物混播草地群落产量和稳定性的影响，本研究以乡土植物羊草(Leymus chinensis)、赖草(Leymus secalinus)、扁蓿豆(Medicago ruthenica)和非乡土植物紫花苜蓿(Medicago sativa)为试验材料，分别设置各物种单播以及羊草-扁蓿豆、羊草-扁蓿豆-赖草、羊草-扁蓿豆-赖草-苜蓿混播，比较不同处理下产量和稳定性的差异，并基于性状加权平均值和功能多样性指数，探究功能性状对群落产量及稳定性的影响。结果表明：两物种和三物种混播产量较低，三物种和四物种群落稳定性在大部分时期都高于两物种；功能多样性指数的增大有利于维持群落稳定。光合速率和呼吸速率的提高会对稳定性产生负面影响。综上所述，混播处理没有显著提高产量，两物种组合稳定性较差，光合速率和呼吸速率以及功能多样性是影响稳定性变化的关键因素。
