摘要
The study on the changes of stomatal sensitivity in relation to xylem ABA during periodical soil drying and the effect of leaf water status on the stomatal sensitivity has confirmed that xylem ABA concentration is a good indicator of soil water status around roots and the relation between xylem ABA concentration and predawn leaf water potential remained constant during the three consecutive soil drying cycles based on the slopes of the fitted lines. The sensitivity of stomata to xylem ABA increased substantially as the soil drying cycles progressed, and the xylem ABA concentration needed to cause a 50% decrease of stomatal conductance was as low as 550 nmol/L in the next two soil drying cycle, as compared with the 750 nmol/L ABA in the first cycle of soil drying. The results using the split_root system showed that leaf water deficit significantly enhanced the stomatal response to xylem ABA and the xylem ABA concentration needed to cause a 50% decrease in stomatal conductance was 2 to 4 times smaller in the whole_root_drying treatment than those in the semi_root_drying treatment. These results suggested that the sensitivity of stomata to xylem ABA concentration is not a fixed characteristic.
研究了周期性土壤干旱期间气孔对木质部ＡＢＡ响应的灵敏度的变化以及叶片水势对灵敏度的影响。实验结果证明了木质部ＡＢＡ浓度是反映根系周围土壤水分状况的一个指标的结论。土壤周期性干旱不影响木质部ＡＢＡ浓度对土壤水分状况的依赖关系，但显著地提高了气孔对木质部ＡＢＡ 响应的灵敏度。根据对实测数据的数学模拟结果显示，引起气孔导度下降５０％ 所需的木质部ＡＢＡ浓度从第一轮土壤干旱的７５０ ｎｍｏｌ／Ｌ降至第二轮土壤干旱的５５０ ｎｍｏｌ／Ｌ。分根实验的结果表明，叶片水分亏缺显著提高了气孔对木质部ＡＢＡ 的响应的灵敏程度，全根干旱中引起气孔导度下降５０ ％ 所需的木质部ＡＢＡ 浓度比半根干旱的小２ ～４ 倍。这表明，气孔对木质部ＡＢＡ响应的灵敏度不是一个固定的特性。
