项目摘要

Grasslands comprise 26% of global land area and 80% of agriculturally productive land. In addition to their agricultural importance, grasslands also play key roles in diverse ecosystem services, including the production of clean water and the prevention of flooding. Native grasslands are often very species-rich, with richness increasing with increasing annual precipitation and declining following disturbance. These patterns of diversity can have important consequences because species-rich grasslands have been shown to be more productive and more resilient to unpredictable events like drought, flooding, or tornado damage. It is essential to understand the processes that govern both the patterns of plant diversity and the benefits of plant diversity to better manage grassland areas. The different processes that create and maintain the rich diversity of plant species coexisting in grasslands are unknown, but recent research suggests that plant pathogens may play a role. This project examines the extent plant disease determines natural patterns of plant diversity within grasslands by conducting parallel experiments at multiple field sites within the United States and China. Undergraduates, graduate students and post-doctoral researchers will be trained in diverse field and laboratory methods, including students and faculty from colleges and community colleges adjacent to study sites in Illinois, Missouri and Kansas. Data from this project will generate new directions for the management of rangelands and also lead to improvements in the yield and resilience of agricultural and native ecosystems.Pathogens are predicted to accumulate and limit plant productivity most strongly in grasslands with low plant phylogenetic diversity, low plant genetic diversity and high precipitation. These predictions will be tested through a coordinated set of field observations, field manipulations, and greenhouse assays, performed on parallel diversity and rainfall gradients in North American and Asian grasslands. Specifically, patterns of plant and pathogen phylogenetic diversity, patterns of plant resistance due to genetic diversity, and patterns of ecological and evolutionary feedback will be tested across rainfall gradients in central United States and China. Rainfall manipulations of experimental plant communities will test environmental dependence of plant species coexistence, productivity benefits of plant diversity, and the role of pathogens as drivers of these processes. These empirical studies will be integrated with mathematical models to generate predictions of patterns and benefits of plant biodiversity, as well as predictions of vulnerabilities of grasslands to environmental perturbations.

草原占全球土地面积的26%，占农业生产用地的80%。除了在农业上的重要性外，草原在各种生态系统服务中也发挥着关键作用，包括生产清洁水和预防洪水。原生草原往往物种非常丰富，丰富度随年降水量的增加而增加，随干扰而下降。这些多样性模式可能会产生重要的后果，因为物种丰富的草原已被证明更具生产力，对干旱、洪水或龙卷风等不可预测的事件更有弹性。了解控制植物多样性模式和植物多样性效益的过程对更好地管理草原是至关重要的。创造和维持草原上共存的丰富植物物种多样性的不同过程尚不清楚，但最近的研究表明，植物病原体可能发挥了作用。本项目通过在美国和中国的多个实地地点进行平行实验，研究植物病害对草原植物多样性自然模式的影响程度。本科生、研究生和博士后研究人员将接受不同领域和实验室方法的培训，其中包括来自伊利诺伊州、密苏里州和堪萨斯州研究地点附近的学院和社区学院的学生和教师。该项目的数据将为牧场管理提供新的方向，并有助于提高农业和本地生态系统的产量和复原力。在植物系统发育多样性低、遗传多样性低、降水量大的草原上，病原菌积累和限制植物生产力的能力最强。这些预测将通过对北美和亚洲草原平行多样性和降雨梯度进行的一套协调的实地观测、实地操作和温室分析来进行检验。具体来说，植物和病原体的系统发育多样性模式，由于遗传多样性的植物抗性模式，以及生态和进化反馈模式将在美国中部和中国的降雨梯度中进行测试。实验植物群落的降雨操纵将测试植物物种共存的环境依赖性、植物多样性的生产力效益以及病原体作为这些过程驱动因素的作用。这些实证研究将与数学模型相结合，以预测植物生物多样性的模式和效益，以及预测草地对环境扰动的脆弱性。
