- Abstract:
-
Taking the dominant plant Alhagi sparsifolia at the southern fringe of Taklimakan Desert as sample, we examined the effects of different disturbances treatments (cutting in spring, cutting in fall and burning in spring) on leaf N, P and K ecological stoichiometry characteristics. The results showed that N, P and K concentrations of Alhagi sparsifolia leaf were significantly lower under cutting in spring and burning treatments along with the seasonal variation, while N∶P mass ratio was no obvious variation. The N concentration and N∶P mass ratio of leaf first decreased and then increased, and K concentration first increased then decreased under cutting in fall treatments, at the same time, P concentration was no obvious variation. Based on variation analysis among different seasons within different treatments of Alhagi sparsifolia leaf, N, P, K concentrations were more seasonal dynamic under the treatment of burning in spring than the other treatments, which were 22.32%, 20.43%, 28.27%, respectively, seasonal dynamics of N concentration and N∶P mass ratio under treatment of cutting in spring were less than the other treatments, which were 16.29%, 8.67%, respectively. P concentration under the treatment of cutting in fall was less seasonal dynamic than the other treatments, which was 8.64%. K concentration was less seasonal dynamic and in N∶P mass ratio was more seasonal dynamics under control treatment than the other treatments, which were 8.11%, 24.26%, respectively. With growth stage and treatments as independent factors, factorial analysis of variation for N, P and K concentrations and N∶P mass ratio showed that Alhagi sparsifolia leaf N concentration and N∶P mass ratio were mainly determined by an interaction between growth stage and disturbance, while leaf P and K concentrations were mainly determined by growth stage of plant.
