Abstract Background Unvegetated tidal flats of mangrove ecosystems in estuarine and non-estuarine areas play a crucial role the coastal blue carbon sinks biogeochemical cycle. However, there is still lack comprehensive understanding differences soil organic (SOC) contents between areas, as well their influencing factors. Methods In this study, samples were collected from Leizhou Peninsula. We compared SOC physicochemical properties flats. The Random Forest algorithm was employed to identify...
Abstract Warming may have profound effects on nitrogen (N) cycling by changing plant N demand and underground supply. However, large uncertainty exists regarding how warming affects the integrated dynamic in tropical forests. We translocated model plant‐soil ecosystems from a high‐altitude site (600 m) to low‐altitude sites at 300 30 m simulate 1.0°C 2.1°C, respectively, China. The of experimental components plant, soil, leaching, gas were studied over 6 years. Our results showed that foliar...
Abstract Forest productivity usually declines with the increase in age of stand, which may be associated disturbance balance nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) nutrients. However, effects stand on plantation nutrient is still unclear. Therefore, an experiment was conducted this study to investigate influence (6‐, 10‐, 15‐, 25‐, 30‐, 34‐year‐old stands) plant growth dynamics N P Castanopsis hystrix plantations Southern China. The reduced leaf N:P. Moreover, found positively correlated N:P,...
Tropical and subtropical forests play a crucial role in global carbon (C) pools, their responses to warming can significantly impact C-climate feedback predictions of future warming. Despite earth system models projecting reductions land C storage with warming, the magnitude this response varies greatly between models, particularly tropical regions. Here, we conducted field ecosystem-level experiment forest southern China, by translocating mesocosms (ecosystem composed soils plants) across...
Abstract Rising temperature associated with climate change may have substantial impacts on forest tree functions. We conducted a 7‐year warming experiment in subtropical China by translocating important native species ( Machilas breviflora , Syzygium rehderianum Schima superba and Itea chinensis ) from cooler high‐elevation sites (600 m) to 1–2°C warmer low‐elevation (300 30 investigate effects leaf hydraulic economic traits. Here, we report data the last 3 years (Years 5–7) of experiment....
Theobromine is an important quality component in tea plants (Camellia sinensis), which produced from 7-methylxanthine by theobromine synthase (CsTbS), the key rate-limiting enzyme biosynthetic pathway. Our transcriptomics and widely targeted metabolomics analyses suggested that CsMYB114 acted as a potential hub gene involved regulation of biosynthesis. The inhibition expression using antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) led to 70.21% reduction level leaves plant, verified involvement...
Abstract Interspecific variations in phenotypic plasticity of trees that are affected by climate change may alter the ecosystem function forests. Seedlings four common tree species (Castanopsis fissa, Michelia macclurei, Dalbergia odorifera and Ormosia pinnata) subtropical plantations southern China were grown field under rainout shelters subjected to changing precipitation (48 L water every 4 days dry season, 83 1 day wet season; g m−2 year−1 nitrogen (N)), low N deposition 2 71 8 N), high...
Sensitivity to climate change is one of the key features Dinghushan National Nature Reserve that located in lower subtropical China. Having faced typhoon Mangkhut 2018, there emerged a need study effects had on evergreen broad-leaved forest community Dinghushan. The composition data for 2015, and 2020 was used this study. aim establish scientific basis restoration natural forests have ability withstand strong weather phenomena such as typhoons hypothesis stated long-term detrimental effect...
Tree growth may be affected by rising temperature. We conducted two long-term, independent warming experiments in a subtropical forest; one experiment used translocation and infra-red (IR) warming. Both techniques are designed to increase air soil temperatures (T T ), but also differentially affect other environmental variables, including volumetric water content (SVWC), relative humidity (RH) vapor pressure deficit (VPD). Hence, tree response ascribed dependent on the indirect effects of...
Based on the positioning monitoring data from 2017 to 2018, we analyzed spatial-temporal dynamic characteristics of moisture in two different soil types (sierozem and aeolian sandy soil) Yanchi desert steppe eastern Ningxia. The results showed that rainfall study area was 208.2 274.8 mm growing season 2018 (May-October), respectively. distribution varied across months. Except for extreme event (129.6 mm) May other months lower than 2017. seasonal dynamics water content roughly divided into...
