兴安落叶松叶片解剖结构对气候暖化的响应及种源差异OA北大核心CSTPCDMEDLINE

Exploring the response of leaf anatomical structure to climate warming is helpful for understanding the adaptive mechanisms of trees to climate change.We conducted a warming experiment by transplanting seedlings of Larix gmelinii from 11 provenances to two common gardens,and examined the response of leaf anatomical structure to climate warming.The results showed that warming significantly increased leaf thickness(TL),upper epidermal mesophyll thickness(TUEM),lower epidermal mesophyll thickness(TLEM),endodermal thickness(TE),vascular bundle diameter(DVB),transfer tissue thickness(TTT),and the percentage of mesophyll thickness to TL(PMT),and significantly decreased the upper epidermal thickness(TUE)and the percentage of epidermal thickness to TL(PE).The mesophyll thickness was positively associated with chlorophyll concentration and maximum net photosyn-thetic rate.The responses of TL,TUEM,TLEM,TE,DVB,TTT,TUE,PMT and PE to warming differed among all the provenances.As the aridity index of the original site increased,the magnitude of the warming treatment's effect decreased for TL,TUEM,TLEM,TTT and PMT,and increased for TUE and PE.Warming increased the thickness and proportion of profit tissue(e.g.,mesophyll)and decreased the thickness and proportion of defensive tissue(e.g.,epidermis),and those changes varied among provenances.L.gmelinii could adapt to climate warming by adjusting leaf anatomical structure,and this ability was weak for trees from provenance with high aridity index.
