However, anomies have been found in the relative areas of the peaks in the room temperature spectra of some clinopyroxene (CPX) when the above assigninent is folowed. Ac-cording to the calculation of Next Nearest Neighbor configurations of divalent cations in M1,we found that the four configurations of M1 can be divided into two groups. One group is 3Ca configuration that increases with the content of Ca (p. f. u); the other group is made up of three No-3Ca configurations that decrease with the content of Ca. The two groups contribute to the spectrum structure of M1, so in this study we fit two doublets for ferrous iron in M1.Though there were severa reports on Fe3+ in tetrahedral site previously, it wa not sure that Fe3+ occupies the T site is a universal fact in CPX, despite of the content of A1. We found that the Fe3+ in the T site fitted by Medauer spectroscopy is negatively correlated to the Si content in the T site and positively correlated to the Fe3 + in the T site estimated on the suppo-sition that Fe3+ and Al occupy the T site randomly. If it is true, it is important in the model-ing of ion exchange geobarometries and gepthermornetries.展开更多

The competition for light resources and divergent responses to light may affect plant species coexistence in natural forests through niche partitioning and environmental filtering, respectively.Methods: In the present study, sequences of light-response-related functional genes were extracted from transcriptomic data of 99 tree species in a subtropical forest and average and nearest taxon phylogenetic diversity of adult(A_Apd’, A_NTpd’) and seedling neighbors(S_Apd’, S_NTpd’) around each focal seedling were calculated to evaluate effects of differentiation in light-response-related genes on community assembly processes.Results: The results showed that seedling survival was related to S_NTpd’, S_Apd’and A_Apd’of two chlorophyll ab-binding proteins involved in the assembly of photosystem Ⅱ and two genes responsive to light intensity,indicating seedlings surrounded by neighbors with distinct light responses tended to have high survival rates.Conclusions: Our results indicated that niche partitioning due to competition for light resources between plants may act as the key mechanism in determining seedling dynamics in subtropical forests.展开更多
