Human commensal species take advantage of anthropogenic conditions that are less likely to be challenged by the selective pressures of natural environments. Their morphological and physiological phenotypes can therefore dissociate from habitat characteristics. Understanding how these species adjust their morphological and physiological traits across latitudinal gradients is fundamental to uncovering the eco-physiological strategies underlying coping mechanisms. Here, we studied morphological traits in breeding Eurasian tree sparrows (ETSs; Passer montanus) among low-latitude (Yunnan and Hunan) and middle-latitude (Hebei) localities in China. We then compared body mass; lengths of bill, tarsometatarsus, wing, total body, and tail feather; and baseline and capture stress-induced levels of plasma corticosterone (CORT) and the metabolites including glucose (Glu), total triglyceride (TG), free fatty acid (FFA), total protein, and uric acid (UA). None of the measured morphological parameters varied with latitude except in the Hunan population, which demonstrated longer bills than those in other populations. Stress-induced CORT levels significantly exceeded baseline levels and decreased with increasing latitude, but total integrated CORT levels did not vary with latitude. Capture stress-induced significantly increased Glu levels and decreased TG levels, independent of site. However, the Hunan population had significantly higher baseline CORT, baseline and stress-induced FFA levels, but lower UA levels, which differed from other populations. Our results suggest that rather than morphological adjustments, physiological adjustments are mainly involved in coping mechanisms for middle-latitude adaptation in ETSs. It is worth investigating whether other avian species also exhibit such dissociation from external morphological designs while depending on physiological adjustments. 相似文献

种植密度对玉米-大豆带状间作下大豆光合、产量及茎秆抗倒的影响 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
【目的】阐明玉米-大豆带状间作下大豆植株冠层在不同种植密度下的光环境变化规律,明确种植密度对间作大豆叶片光合特性、产量形成及茎秆抗倒的影响,为构建寡日照地区间作大豆合理群体密度提供理论参考。【方法】本研究以大豆（川豆-16）和玉米（正红-505）为试验材料。采用双因素随机区组设计,主因素为种植方式,设玉米-大豆带状间作和大豆带状单作2个水平,副因素为大豆的3个种植密度（PD1=17株/m2,PD2=20株/m2,PD3=25株/m2),研究种植密度对间作大豆冠层内部光环境变化、叶片光合特性、植株生长动态、田间倒伏率及产量构成等的影响。【结果】2年结果表明,在玉米-大豆带状间作系统中,大豆生长中后期受高位作物玉米遮荫和自荫性增加的影响,其植株群体冠层内部的光合有效辐射（PAR）、叶面积指数（LAI）、叶片光合能力、分枝数及产量显著降低,但受玉米影响的程度因大豆种植密度的不同而不同。在间作模式下,PD1和PD2处理的大豆植株群体冠层光合有效辐射比PD3处理分别增加了45.4%和24.8%,净光合速率分别增加了46.1%和12.3%,单株有效荚数分别增加了53.2%和27.2%,单株分枝数分别增加了270.4%和140.9%,田间倒伏率分别降低了50.3%和19.3%。相关性分析发现,间作大豆的田间倒伏率与冠层内部光合有效辐射、叶片净光合速率、茎秆抗折力、茎叶干物质比、单株分枝数及单株有效荚数呈显著负相关,与株高、叶面积指数和单株无效荚数呈显著正相关。【结论】在玉米-大豆带状间作模式下,20株/m2的大豆密度（PD2）有利于创造良好的群体冠层内部光环境,降低植株田间大豆倒伏率,增加光合产物积累,从而提高大豆产量。 相似文献

CRUSTING OF RIVER ESTATE SOIL, TRINIDAD, AND ITS EFFECT ON GASEOUS DIFFUSION, PERCOLATION, AND SEEDLING EMERGENCE 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
The River Estate Loam in Trinidad is micaceous. It is weakly structured and prone to surface crusting which results in decreased gaseous diffusion, infiltration- percolation, and seedling emergence. Mulching with ‘Encap’ (a liquid petroleum product) increased infiltration but not seedling emergence whereas ‘Krilium’ (sodium polyacrilonitrile) was more effective in improving seedling emergence. Bagasse mulch had a beneficial effect on infiltration but in common with pen manure was not very effective in aiding seedling emergence. Thin section examination showed that the uncrusted soil had an open structure with a large volume of pores, but, on crusting, the particles became densely packed with negligible air-spaces. Soil particles on die surface of the crust showed some degree of orientation but below the surface there was no such tendency, although particles coalesced with negligible air-spaces. The liquid petroleum mulch prevented crust formation and maintained a stable soil structure. 相似文献

Methods of dispersion used in Japan and New Zealand for soils formed on recent volcanic ash (Andepts) which involved adjusting the pH of organic matterfree soil suspensions to 4 or 10·5 were not effective on similar soils in the Caribbean. Partial dispersion was obtained by adjusting the pH to between 2 and 3 but lower (down to pH 1) and higher (up to pH 11·1) pH values were ineffective. Substantial amounts of Al dissolved at pH 1–3 probably as a result of some disintegration of the allophanoid minerals. Zirconium nitrate solutions were very efficient in causing dispersion, a concentration of 12 me Zr being necessary for complete dispersion of 20 g samples of soil. Excess Zr did not adversely affect dispersion but resulted in depression of pH of the suspensions. The high ionic charge, small atomic radius, and low ionization potential of Zr apparently resulted in saturation of the cation exchange capacity and some isomorphous substitution of Al leading to a net positive charge of the clay and an increase in anion exchange capacity. This was considered to be responsible for dispersion. 相似文献

Guava (Psidium guajava) fruits of cv. L-49 with individual shrink wrapping using 9 LLDPE film could be successfully stored up to 12 days at ambient and 18 days in evaporative cool chamber with negligible loss in vitamin C content. The untreated fruits lose 25–30% of ascorbic acid within 1week after harvest. Delay in senescence and metabolic activities as supported by less changes in soluble solids, sugars, acidity, respiration, and ethylene evaluation rate was also observed in individual shrink wrapped fruits in cool chamber. The spoilage of fruits by Fusarium rots was significantly less in cool chamber in individually shrink wrapped fruits followed by Sta-fresh treatment. Sta-fresh was more effective in cool chamber than ambient. Individually stored wrapped fruits scored a better value of sensory score than Sta-fresh under both the storage condition. 相似文献

The Montserrat series is one of the most fertile of tropical soils. Substantial amounts of exchangeable K, available P, and favourable organic matter content and distribution contribute to its unique properties. P occurs in amounts ranging from 0.4 to 0.6 per cent, about 75 per cent of which is inorganic with Fe phosphates making up the bulk. Truog's reagent almost quantitatively extracts Ca phosphate and Bray's and Olsen's reagents extract mainly Al phosphate. Exchangeable K is derived from glauconite. High exchangeable Ca and Mg contents derived from weathering of carbonates impart a favourable pH to the soil for plant growth. Exceptional structural stability to 120 cm depth is associated with high free iron oxide, organic matter, and Ca contents. The outstanding feature in mineral weathering is the rapid transformation of glauconite through vermiculite to kaolinite and the formation of goethite. Considerable interlayering occurs between vermiculite with sesquioxide coatings and mica-vermiculite interlayers. Much of this weathering occurs in the calcareous, oxidized, friable parent rock. The features of the Montserrat series described above substantiate its classification as a Brown Earth (Mollisol). 相似文献

Ten genotypes of rice (Oryza sativa L.) were grown for 30 d in complete nutrient solution with 1 mmol/L (N-insufficient),4 mmol/L (N-moderate) and 10 mmol/L (N-high) nitrogen levels,and nitrogen efficiency (NE) was analyzed.Growth performance,measured in terms of fresh weight,dry weight and lengths of root and shoot,was higher in N-efficient than in N-inefficient rice genotypes at low N level.Of these 10 genotypes,Suraksha was identified as the most N-efficient,while Vivek Dhan the most N-inefficient.To find out the physiological basis of this difference,the nitrate uptake rate of root and the activities of nitrate assimilatory enzymes in leaves of N-efficient and N-inefficient rice genotypes were studied.Uptake experiments revealed the presence of two separate nitrate transporter systems mediating high-and low-affinity nitrate uptake.Interestingly,the nitrate uptake by the roots of Suraksha is mediated by both high-and low-affinity nitrate transporter systems,while that of Vivek Dhan by only low-affinity nitrate transporter system.Study of the activities and expression levels of nitrate assimilatory enzymes in N-efficient and N-inefficient rice genotypes showed that nitrate reductase (NR) and glutamine synthetase (GS) play important roles in N assimilation under low-nitrogen conditions. 相似文献

Water extracts obtained from the roots, shoots, and fruits of mature wild onion ( Asphodelus tenuifolius ) plants and soil taken from an A. tenuifolius field were used to determine their allelopathic effects on the germination and seedling growth of chickpea ( Cicer arietinum ) in the laboratory. The roots, shoots, and fruits of A. tenuifolius were soaked individually in water in a ratio of 1:20 (w/v) for 24 h to prepare the extracts. Distilled water was used as the control. The germinated seeds were taken out from the Petri dishes and counted every day for 12 days. The seeds of chickpea were also sown in sand and in each of the controlled, normal soil and the soil taken from the A. tenuifolius -infested field in Petri dishes to record the length and weight of the roots and shoots 18 days after sowing. The mean germination time reached the maximum amount for the stem and fruit extracts. The fruit extract caused the most reduction in the germination index and the germination percentage of chickpea. The different wild onion organ extracts significantly reduced the root and shoot length and biomass of the chickpea seedlings compared with the distilled water. The fruit extract of wild onion proved to be the most detrimental to the root length, shoot length, and dry weight of the chickpea seedlings. The soil beneath the A. tenuifolius plants significantly reduced the emergence, root length, shoot length, shoot dry weight, and seedling dry weight but increased the root dry weight of the chickpea seedlings. It is suggested that A. tenuifolius releases phytotoxic compound(s). 相似文献
