Abstract
This study systematically compared the differences in photosynthetic physiological characteristics and leaf anatomical structure between the population of the original habitat and the regression population of Paphiopedilum emersonii.The results showed that the in situ plants showed significant advantages in photosynthetic performance, including higher net photosynthetic rate, maximum photosynthetic rate (Pmax), light saturation point (LSP) and apparent quantum yield (AQY), but their chlorophyll content was lower than that of the regression plants.The anatomical structure showed that the leaves of the regression plants were thicker, and the thickness of palisade tissue and sponge tissue and stomatal area were significantly larger than those of the regression plants, which was positively correlated with their higher chlorophyll content.It is worth noting that photosynthetic parameters (Pmax, LSP, AQY) were significantly positively correlated with pigment parameters (Car/Chl a + b) and upper epidermis thickness (UET).Based on these findings, it is recommended to select a moist habitat with shading when returning to the introduction to alleviate photoinhibition and maintain water balance, thereby increasing the survival rate of the returning plants.
本研究系统比较了原生境与回归种群在光合生理特性和叶片解剖结构上的差异。结果表明,原位植株在净光合速率、最大光合速率(Pmax)、光饱和点(LSP)和表观量子产率(AQY)方面具有显著优势,但叶绿素含量低于回归植株。解剖结构分析表明,退耕植株叶片更厚,栅栏组织、海绵组织厚度和气孔面积均显著大于退耕植株,这与其较高的叶绿素含量呈正相关。值得注意的是,光合参数(Pmax、LSP、AQY)与色素参数(Car/Chl a + b)和上表皮厚度(UET)呈显著正相关。综上所述,建议在返回引种时选择有遮荫的湿润生境,以减轻光抑制,维持水分平衡,从而提高返回植株的成活率。
