Abstract:
In July 2018,taking plantations of
Acacia crassicarpa A.Cunn.ex Benth.,
A.melanoxylon R.Br.,
A.cincinnata F.Muell.,
A.auriculiformis A.Cunn.ex Benth.,and
A.mangium Willd.as research objects in Zhangzhou City of Fujian Province,the homeostasis characteristics of N,P,K and C:N,C:P,C:K and N:P of their mature leaves were studied,in order to reveal the ecological adaptation strategies of different Acacia species.The results show that:there were differences in the internal stability index of leaf elements of different Acacia species,except for the N homeostasis index of
A.melanoxylon R.Br.,the
HN of the other four Acacia species belonged to the sensitive type,and the P and K homeostasis indices of the five Acacia species were sensitive.The stoichiometric ratio of elements was significantly higher than the elemental content,and the C:N stability indices of
Acacia species were all steady-state,The
HC:P,
HC:K,and
HN:P of
Acacia species generally showed weakly stable or steady state types (except for
HC:P of
A.auriculiformis A.Cunn.ex Benth.,H
C:K of
A.cincinnata F.Muell.and
HN:P of A.mangium Willd.).In conclusion,Acacia crassicarpa A.Cunn.ex Benth.had higher H
C:P and
HC:K,
A.melanoxylon R.Br.had higher
HN and
HN:P,and A.cincinnata F.Muell.had higher
HP and
HC:N,indicating that different
Acacia species had different adaptability to the external environment,and Acacia species with higher homeostasis had stronger adaptability to the corresponding soil nutrient variation.
