摘要:

了解种群动态及其关键驱动因子对濒危物种的保护至关重要。景东翅子树为国家Ⅱ级重点保护野生植物,按IUCN红色名录濒危等级和标准划分为极危种。生境的丧失及其片断化是该物种濒危的主要威胁因素。该研究主要回答以下2个问题:(1)不同大小的片断和连续森林中景东翅子树的种群动态如何?(2)驱动景东翅子树种群动态变化的关键因子是什么?在不同大小片断(5 hm2和15 hm2)和连续森林中分别设立3个50 m×100 m固定样地,调查景东翅子树所有个体的胸径(幼苗和幼树为地径)、繁殖产出、个体的存活及幼苗的补充情况。基于连续3年的种群统计调查及实验数据,建立不同时间段(2018—2019、2019—2020和2020—2021年)上述3种生境中景东翅子树的积分投影模型,同时应用弹性分析方法量化种群统计参数对种群增长率的相对贡献。结果表明,(1)不同时段不同生境中景东翅子树的种群生命率(或统计过程)存在一定差异。3种生境中景东翅子树的死亡个体数为0—2 plant∙a-1∙hm-2,年开花个体数为0—4 plant∙a-1∙hm-2,新增个体数为0—1.3 plant∙a-1∙hm-2。(2)除5 hm2片断在2020—2021年间受人为影响导致较大下降外,3种生境中景东翅子树种群的增长率等于或趋近于1,说明其种群是稳定的。(3)3个时段3种生境中景东翅子树种群的存活和生长对种群增长率的贡献占99.2%以上,说明种群的存活和生长是驱动种群增长、维持种群稳定的关键因子。研究认为如果没有较大的人为干扰和环境的波动如严重干旱等,3种生境中景东翅子树种群可维持稳定。

Abstract:

Understanding population dynamics and its key drivers is vital for the protection of endangered species. Pterospermum kingtungense has been recognized as grade II national key protected plant species and listed as critically endangered species in terms of the IUCN red list categories and criteria. Habitat loss and fragmentation are the main threats to endangered species. The present study aims to answer the following questions: (1) how are the population dynamics of P. kingtungense in fragments of different sizes and continuous forests? (2) what are the key factors driving the population dynamics of P. kingtungense? We established three 50 m×100 m permanent sampling plots within each of the habitats of forest fragments of different sizes (5 hm2, 15 hm2) and continuous forest. All P. kingtungense individuals were measured for DBH (diameter at breast height, but ground diameter for seedlings and saplings), reproductive outputs, survival, and seedling replenishment. Based on three-year annual censuses and experimental data, nine integral projection models were constructed for the above three habitats for three transition years (2018-2019, 2019-2020 and 2020-2021), and the relative contribution of the population demographic parameters to the population growth rate was quantified by the elastic analysis method. Our results showed that there are some certain differences in the demographic process (or vital rates) of P. kingtungense populations in different habitats and in different transition years. In the three habitats, the number of dead individuals, flowering plants and new recruitments of P. kingtungense were 0-2, 0-4 and 0-1.3 plant∙a-1∙hm-2, respectively. The population growth rate of P. kingtungense was equal to or approaching one, suggesting that P. kingtungense populations were stable in the different-size fragmented and continuous forests, except for the 5 hm2 fragment for the transition year 2020-2021, which had a greater decrease in the population growth rate due to human disturbance. The contribution of survival and growth of P. kingtungense populations to their population growth rate accounted for more than 99.2% in the three habitats for the three transition years, suggesting that population survival and growth are the key factors driving population growth and maintaining population stability. The study suggests that if there is no large anthropogenic disturbance and environmental fluctuation (such as serious drought), the P. kingtungense populations can maintain stability in the three habitats.
