为了研究太阳紫外线B辐射(UV-B)对野生植物生理的影响之间的函数关系,以夏季一年生曼陀罗(Datura ferox L.)为材料,进行了野外排除试验。布宜诺斯艾利斯上空的太阳紫外线B事件减少了白天的出苗,抑制了茎的伸长和叶的展开,并往往减少了早期生长期间的生物量积累。然而,UV-B对计算的净同化率没有影响。利用一种针对环丁烷-嘧啶二聚体(CPU)的单克隆抗体,我们发现,与受太阳UV-B屏蔽的植物相比,接受充足阳光照射的植物每单位DNA的CPD含量更高,但UV-B与CPD含量之间的正相关性在高UV-B水平(接近太阳)时趋于平稳。在我们的现场,曼陀罗植物被叶甲虫(鞘翅目)消耗,并受到昆虫攻击的植物的比例下降,在生长过程中收到的UV-B的量。田间试验表明,植物暴露于太阳紫外线B可使叶甲攻击的可能性减少一半。我们的研究结果突出了与缩放植物对太阳UV-B的响应相关的复杂性,因为它们表明:(a)UV-B对净同化率和整株植物生长率的影响之间缺乏对应关系,(B)非线性UV-B剂量响应曲线,(c)UV-B对植物吸引天然食草动物的影响。
To study functional relationships between the effects of solar ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B) on different aspects of the physiology of a wild plant, we carried out exclusion experiments in the field with the summer annual Datura ferox L. Solar UV-B incident over Buenos Aires reduced daytime seedling emergence, inhibited stem elongation and leaf expansion, and tended to reduce biomass accumulation during early growth. However, UV-B had no effect on calculated net assimilation rate. Using a monoclonal antibody specific to the cyclobutane-pyrimidine dimer (CPU), we found that plants receiving full sunlight had more CPDs per unit of DNA than plants shielded from solar UV-B, but the positive correlation between UV-B and CPD burden tended to level oft at high (near solar) UV-B levels. At our field site, Datura plants were consumed by leaf beetles (Coleoptera), and the proportion of plants attacked by insects declined with the amount of UV-B received during growth. Field experiments showed that plant exposure to solar UV-B reduced the likelihood of leaf beetle attack by one-half. Our results highlight the complexities associated with scaling plant responses to solar UV-B, because they show: (a) a lack of correspondence between UV-B effects on net assimilation rate and whole-plant growth rate, (b) nonlinear UV-B dose-response curves, and (c) UV-B effects of plant attractiveness to natural herbivores.
