The stable carbon (C) isotope composition (delta13C) of tree rings is a powerful metric for reconstructing past physiological responses to climate variation. However, accurate measurement and interpretation are complicated by diagenesis and the translocation of compounds with distinct isotopic signatures. Isolation and analysis of cellulose minimizes these complications by eliminating variation due to biosynthetic pathways; however, isolation of cellulose is time-consuming and has no clear endpoint. A faster and better-defined analytical method is desirable. Our objectives were to determine if there is a direct relationship between the isotopic compositions of whole wood (WW), whole wood treated with solvents to remove mobile extractives (extractive-free wood; EF) and holocellulose (HC) isolated by extractive removal and subsequent bleaching. We also determined if total C concentration could explain the isotopic composition and variation among these three wood components of each sample. A set of wood samples of diverse phylogeny, anatomy and chemical composition, was examined. The mean offset or difference between HC and EF delta13C was 1.07 +/- 0.09 per thousand and the offset between HC and WW was 1.32 +/- 0.10 per thousand. Equivalence tests (with alpha = 0.05) indicated that the relationship between EF delta13C and HC delta13C had a slope significantly similar to 1 +/- 5.5%, whereas for the WW delta13C: HC delta13C relationship, the slope was significantly similar to 1 +/- 10.08%. A regression model using EF delta13C to predict HC delta13C had a slope of 0.97, which was not significantly different from unity (P = 0.264), whereas the regression for WW had a slope of 0.92 which was significantly different from unity (P = 0.0098). Carbon concentration was correlated with HC:WW offset and cellulose:EF offset (P = 0.0501 and 0.007, respectively), but neither relationship explained much of the variation (r2 = 0.12 and 0.14, respectively). We suggest that HC extraction is unnecessary for most analyses of tree-ring delta13C; a simple solvent extraction is a suitable alternative for many applications. 相似文献

We present a new, rapid method for high-resolution online determination of delta13C in tree rings, combining laser ablation (LA), combustion (C), gas chromatography (GC) and isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) (LA-C-GC-IRMS). Sample material was extracted every 6 min with a UV-laser from a tree core, leaving 40-microm-wide holes. Ablated wood dust was combusted to CO2 at 700 degrees C, separated from other gases on a GC column and injected into an isotope ratio mass spectrometer after removal of water vapor. The measurements were calibrated against an internal and an external standard. The tree core remained intact and could be used for subsequent dendrochronological and dendrochemical analyses. Cores from two Scots pine trees (Pinus sylvestris spp. sibirica Lebed.) from central Siberia were sampled. Inter- and intra-annual patterns of delta13C in whole-wood and lignin-extracted cores were indistinguishable apart from a constant offset, suggesting that lignin extraction is unnecessary for our method. Comparison with the conventional method (microtome slicing, elemental analysis and IRMS) indicated high accuracy of the LA-C-GC-IRMS measurements. Patterns of delta13C along three parallel ablation lines on the same core showed high congruence. A conservative estimate of the precision was +/- 0.24 per thousand. Isotopic patterns of the two Scots pine trees were broadly similar, indicating a signal related to the forest stand's climate history. The maximum variation in delta13C over 22 years was about 5 per thousand, ranging from -27 to -22.3 per thousand. The most obvious pattern was a sharp decline in delta13C during latewood formation and a rapid increase with spring early growth. We conclude that the LA-C-GC-IRMS method will be useful in elucidating short-term climate effects on the delta13C signal in tree rings. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThe connection between chemical composition and anatomy of wood is poorly studied. Abiotic and biotic growth conditions affect the synthesis of structural compounds and the anatomy of wood at the same time as they affect growth. In this study, the wood chemical composition, and connections between wood chemistry and anatomy were studied in downy birch (Betula pubescens Ehrh.) grown on four growth sites possessing mineral and peat soils. Lignin, holocellulose, extractive and ash contents, and effective heating value were analysed and compared with libriform fibre double wall thickness and lumen diameter, vessel size and number, and ray and axial parenchyma numbers. Measured lignin and extractive contents were exceptionally high and holocellulose content low. Correlations between wood anatomy and effective heating value were partly different on different soils. Correlations between holocellulose and anatomy were the opposite of the correlations between other chemical compounds and anatomy. The significant correlations between chemical composition and anatomy were commonly opposite in trees grown on peat than in trees grown on mineral soil. Particularly, vessel characteristics and fibre wall thickness correlated significantly with wood chemistry in trees grown on mineral soil. The connections between wood anatomy and chemistry proved to be soil-dependent. 相似文献

For analysis of carbon isotope discrimination in wood, cellulose or holocellulose is often preferred to whole tissue because of the variability in isotopic composition of different wood components and the relative immobility of cellulose. Most currently used methods for the preparation of wood components for stable isotope analysis (e.g., the Jayme-Wise method) produce a residue of holocellulose. The Jayme-Wise method was initially developed to extract holocellulose from small (~1 g) samples of wood, and, despite subsequent modifications, the method requires specialized glassware, considerable time and entails the risk of sample loss. For carbon isotope analysis, we adapted an acid-catalyzed solvolytic method for preparing crude cellulose by treating wood meal with acidified di-glycol methyl ether (diglyme). The one-step process requires no special glassware, is complete within 24 hours and enables over 100 samples to be processed in a day. This method gives similar delta(13)C values to the Jayme-Wise method for wood of Eucalyptus globulus Labill., Pinus radiata D. Don and Pinus pinaster Ait. The relationship between delta(13)C of wood and crude cellulose is as strong as that observed between wood and alpha-cellulose and stronger than that observed between wood and holocellulose in other species. These relationships suggest that variation in delta(13)C of wood may result from hemicellulose and that analysis of stable carbon isotopes in crude cellulose is preferable. If the consistent -0.3 bias in the value of delta(13)C of cellulose resulting from residual lignin is corrected for, then the relationship between delta(13)C of wood and crude cellulose may be used to predict delta(13)C of cellulose from a small sub-sample. The method is well suited to species with low concentrations of extractives, but further testing is needed to assess its general applicability. 相似文献

Soil compaction is a side effect of forest reestablishment practices resulting from use of heavy equipment and site preparation. Soil compaction often alters soil properties resulting in changes in plant-available water. The use of pressure chamber methods to assess plant water stress has two drawbacks: (1) the measurements are not integrative; and (2) the method is difficult to apply extensively to establish seasonal soil water status. We evaluated leaf carbon isotopic composition (delta13C) as a means of assessing effects of soil compaction on water status and growth of young ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa var. ponderosa Dougl. ex Laws) stands across a range of soil textures. Leaf delta13C in cellulose and whole foliar tissue were highly correlated. Leaf delta13C in both whole tissue and cellulose (holocellulose) was up to 1.0 per thousand lower in trees growing in non-compacted (NC) loam or clay soils than in compacted (SC) loam or clay soils. Soil compaction had the opposite effect on leaf delta13C in trees growing on sandy loam soil, indicating that compaction increased water availability in this soil type. Tree growth response to compaction also varied with soil texture, with no effect, a negative effect and a positive effect as a result of compaction of loam, clay and sandy loam soils, respectively. There was a significant correlation between 13C signature and tree growth along the range of soil textures. Leaf delta13C trends were correlated with midday stem water potentials. We conclude that leaf delta13C can be used to measure retrospective water status and to assess the impact of site preparation on tree growth. The advantage of the leaf delta13C approach is that it provides an integrative assessment of past water status in different aged leaves. 相似文献

Elevated CO(2) concentrations ([CO(2)]) affect plant water relations and photosynthesis, and the increase in atmospheric [CO(2)] over the past 100-200 years has been related to changes in stomatal density and the carbon isotope ratio (delta(13)C) in tree rings and leaves from herbarium specimens. Because many tropical trees do not produce annual growth rings and their wood is therefore difficult to date, no trends in delta(13)C of tropical trees have been reported. Wood from Cedrela odorata L. (tropical cedar) and Swietenia macrophylla King (bigleaf mahogany), which do produce annual rings, was collected from a primary rain forest in Aripuan?, Brazil (10 degrees 09' S, 59 degrees 26' W). We measured wood cellulose delta(13)C in 10-year growth increments from 37 Cedrela trees (between 11 and 151 years old in 2001) and 16 Swietenia trees (48-126 years old). A comparison of delta(13)C in cellulose of trees from different decades and of trees of different cambial ages showed that the amount of delta(13)C was largely related to the decade the wood was produced in, and not, or only to a minor extent, to tree age. Cellulose delta(13)C decreased from -26.0 to -27.3 per thousand in Cedrela and from -25.7 to -27.1 per thousand in Swietenia, with the largest changes occurring during the past 50 years. Based on these data and the trends in atmospheric [CO(2)] and delta(13)CO(2), we calculated that the internal [CO(2)] increased from about 220 to 260 ppm and that intrinsic water-use efficiency increased by 34% in Cedrela and by 52% in Swietenia. This may have implications for the water cycle and may explain the trend toward increased tree growth and turnover observed in some tropical forests. 相似文献

Twenty 70-year-old longleaf pine trees from a spacing, thinning, and pruning study were harvested, from which samples were analyzed for gross calorific value (GCV). A strong correlation was found between GCV and extractive contents for the unextracted wood samples. Although lignin content should impact GCV, no correlation was found between the variation in GCV with lignin content for the extractive-free wood samples. Mid-IR spectroscopy coupled with multivariate analysis provided strong correlations between the mid-IR-predicted and calorimetry-determined values for the unextracted wood samples. Plotting the regression coefficients for GCV and extractive contents showed that the same mid-IR bands were responsible for the strength of these models. Spectral differences were observed between the different extract samples, and relative peak intensities appeared to be dependent upon the extractive contents from the wood samples. Thus, models were also built based on the corresponding wood extractive contents using the actual extracts. These provided good correlations, suggesting a proportional change in extractive compositions coinciding with the total amount of extractives present in the unextracted wood samples. 相似文献

We measured oxygen isotope ratios (delta18O) of xylem sap, phloem sap, leaves, wood and bark of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. growing in southwestern Australia. Carbon isotope ratios (delta13C) were measured in the dry matter of phloem sap, leaves and wood. Results were used to test several aspects of a mechanistic model of 18O enrichment and provided insights into post-photosynthetic variations in dry matter delta13C. Xylem water delta18O varied little within the tree crown, whereas variation at the landscape-level was more pronounced, with plantations near the coast being enriched by up to 3 per thousand compared with plantations less than 100 km inland. Phloem water was significantly enriched in 18O compared with xylem water in two of three sampling campaigns; mean enrichments were 0.5 and 0.8 per thousand. Phloem sap sugars exported from E. globulus leaves closely reflected observed leaf water enrichment when diurnal variation in photosynthesis was taken into account. Photosynthetic rates were higher in the morning than in the afternoon, whereas leaf water 18O enrichment increased to maximum values in the afternoon. A non-steady-state model of leaf water 18O enrichment accurately predicted observed values through a full diel cycle. Mean estimates of the proportion of organic oxygen effectively exchanging with xylem water during cellulose synthesis were close to 0.40 for both leaves and wood. Carbon isotope ratios of nascent xylem tissues did not differ from those of phloem sap sugars collected concurrently, whereas nascent leaf tissues were depleted in 13C by 2 per thousand compared with phloem sap sugars, suggesting that, in E. globulus, 13C enrichment of sink tissues compared with source leaves does not result from an enriching process within the sink tissue. 相似文献

The carbon isotopic composition (delta(13)C) of wood and leaf cellulose of beech trees (Fagus sylvatica L.) was studied at 80 sites in northeastern France. We sampled sites with contrasting water balance, depending on soil type and precipitation. We tested the hypothesis that inter-site variations in plant delta(13)C reflect the spatial distribution of soil water availability, and we assessed whether delta(13)C could be used as a bioindicator of soil water availability. Patterns of variation in delta(13)C were compared with estimates of monthly water balance and with other soil characteristics. Between-site variability in delta(13)C was high (2.9 per thousand range in wood cellulose, 2.1 per thousand in leaf cellulose), but variation in water availability appeared to be only a minor factor contributing to this variation in delta(13)C. Unexpectedly, spatial variations in wood and leaf cellulose delta(13)C were significantly and positively related to soil fertility expressed by soil pH (r = 0.42 and 0.43, respectively) and cation content. On average, trees growing on acidic soils displayed 0.5 per thousand lower delta(13)C in both wood and leaf material than trees growing on neutral or calcareous soils. Our initial hypothesis of a strong negative relationship between delta(13)C and site water availability was not confirmed. In the study zone, neither wood nor leaf delta(13)C appeared to be a reliable bioindicator of spatial variations in water availability. Possible causes for the lack of a relationship are discussed. Our findings confirm, under natural conditions, the strong effect of soil fertility on water-use efficiency previously observed in experiments. This effect needs to be considered in isotopic studies involving different sites. 相似文献

Stable carbon isotope composition (delta; per thousand) was measured on cellulose extracted from maritime pine (Pinus pinaster A?t.) tree rings to investigate inter-tree and interannual variability (7 trees, 20 rings per tree, each ring divided into early and late wood). A model of stand primary production coupled to water balance was used to calculate the stand annual water-use efficiency (WUE). Inter-tree variability in discrimination (maximum 2.88 per thousand in late wood in 1989, 2.69 per thousand in early wood in 1983) was as large as interannual variation (maximum 2.72 per thousand in late wood, 2.05 per thousand in early wood). Tree size did not explain these differences. Relationships were found between annual discrimination and climate variables such as annual rainfall, summer temperature and vapor pressure deficit (VPD). Higher correlations were found with late wood discrimination. Early wood discrimination was shown to be related to previous-year late wood discrimination. Late wood discrimination was also related to soil water availability. Stand annual WUE was only weakly related to tree ring carbon discrimination. 相似文献

Different populations of widely distributed species can experience dramatically different climatic conditions that may influence physiological activity, specifically carbon assimilation and water use. Populus fremontii Wats. (Fremont cottonwood) populations are found near rivers of varying size along a precipitation gradient from New Mexico to northern California. Climatic differences among populations may lead to physiological differences because P. fremontii is sensitive to water availability. To assess physiological variation among populations, we collected foliage and wood samples from 13 populations that experience different precipitation and stream flow regimes and analyzed the samples for carbon isotope composition (delta13C). Wood delta13C served as a lifetime-averaged indicator of water-use efficiency (WUE), whereas foliage delta13C provided as an estimate of WUE during the growing season of collection. We found approximately 3.4 per thousand variation in delta13C among populations for both foliage (-31.1 to -27.9 per thousand) and wood (-28.3 to -24.7 per thousand). Wood delta13C was, on average, 2.8 per thousand more enriched than foliage. Some of the variation in wood delta13C can be explained by variation in elevation of the study sites. We constructed total precipitation and mean stream flow variables based on the length of the growing season at each study site and analyzed for a relationship between delta13C, precipitation and stream flow. A significant relationship between foliage delta13C and precipitation was found, but water availability did not explain a significant fraction of the variation in wood delta13C. The data suggest that water availability can account for some of the delta13C variation among populations but, given the large residual variances, other factors are important. 相似文献

Relations between various extracted basic densities and wood chemical components were investigated by their within-tree variations in Eucalyptus globulus for assistance in the prediction of the properties of wood or wood-derived products. Extraneous compounds affect the relations between various basic densities and wood chemical components such as holocellulose and the lignin syringyl/guaiacyl ratio. We also discuss the relation of various densities, the molar composition of neutral sugars constituting hemicellulose, and fiber morphology. 相似文献

Influence of process variables on the properties of pulp and paper sheets obtained by sulphite pulping of olive tree wood 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Summary A central composition design was developed to study the influence of process variables (temperature, pulping time, sulphite
concentration, anthraquinone concentration and liquid/solid relation) on the properties of pulps (yield, holocellulose, α-cellulose
and lignin contents, and brightness) and the paper sheets (stretch, burst index and tear index) obtained from them, in the
sulphite pulping of olive tree wood. Equations that reproduce the properties of pulps prepared by sulphite pulping and of
paper sheets obtained from it are reported. The proposed equations fit the experimental yield and the holocellulose and α-cellulose
contents of the pulps with errors less than 5%, as well as brightness with errors less than 10%. Also, they reproduce the
lignin content of the pulps, and the stretch, burst index and tear index of the paper sheets with errors less than 15%. Obtaining
pulps with acceptably high yield, holocellulose and α-cellulose contents, and also a high brightness, in addition to low lignin
contents, entails operating at a temperature of 193 °C for 143 min, using a sulphite concentration of 19.85%, an anthraquinone
concentration of 0.1% and a liquid/solid relation of 6.24. These are also the most suitable conditions for obtaining paper
sheets with a high stretch, burst index and tear index.

Liquefaction and product identification of main chemical compositions of wood in phenol 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
Zhang Qiu-hui Zhao Guang-jie Jie Shu-jun 《中国林学(英文版)》2005,7(2):31-37
To clarify liquefaction ratios and their construction variations of the main chemical compositions of wood in phenol using phosphoric acid as a catalyst, the chemical ingredients of wood such as holocellulose, cellulose and lignin, were measured and extracted according to GB methods. With Fourier transform infrared （FTIR）, the product identification of reactant before and after liquefaction in phenol was investigated. The molecular weights and their distributions of the liquefaction results （acetone soluble parts） were studied by gel permeation chromatography （GPC）. Results show that the molecular weights and their distributions of poplar and Chinese fir are almost the same. In poplar, the distribution of cellulose is the largest, and that ofholocellulose the smallest after liquefaction. For Chinese fir, the distribution of holocellulose is the largest, and that of cellulose the smallest. After liquefaction of poplar cellulose, the change bands of FTIR spectrum observed below 1 600 cm^-1, can be attributed to new substitute groups. The same is true for poplar lignin. For Chinese fir, the spectra of liquefaction results of all chemical compositions differ from that of wood meal. This reveals the more activity groups were produced because of the reactions between Chinese fir and phenol. The research shows that the liquefaction ratios of poplar decrease in the following order： holocellulose 〉 lignin 〉 cellulose, and those of Chinese fir in the order： lignin 〉 cellulose 〉 holocellulose. 相似文献
