Trichloroacetic acid in Norway spruce/soil-system. II. Distribution and degradation in the plant.

چکیده
Independently from its origin, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) as a phytotoxic substance affects coniferous trees. Its uptake, distribution and degradation were thus investigated in the Norway spruce/soil-system using 14C labeling. TCA is distributed in the tree mainly by the transpiration stream. As in soil, TCA seems to be degraded microbially, presumably by phyllosphere microorganisms in spruce needles. Indication of TCA biodegradation in trees is shown using both antibiotics and axenic plants.

The decomposition of leaf litter has important in the ecosystem level through regulating buildup of soil organic matter, regulating of nutrient for plant growth and influencing the flux of Co2 from the soil. Several studies have introduced Home-field advantage (HFA) as an index for indicating more rapidly decomposition process of litter in its own site. In the present study, beech and alder s...
متن کاملLong-term exposure of Sitka spruce seedlings to trichloroacetic acid.
Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) has been implicated as an airborne pollutant responsible for adverse effects on forest health. There is considerable debate as to whether TCA observed in trees and forest soils is derived from atmospheric deposition or from in situ production. This experiment reports the results from treating 4-year-old Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis (Bong.) Carr) plants in a greenhou...
متن کاملResponses of Picea, Pinus and Pseudotsuga roots to heterogeneous nutrient distribution in soil.
The spatial distribution of plant-available mineral nutrients in forest soils is often highly heterogeneous. To test the hypothesis that local nutrient enrichment of soil leads to increased root proliferation in the nutrient-rich soil zone, we studied the effects of nutrient enrichment on the growth and nutrient concentrations of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco), Scots pine (P...
متن کاملNutrient Dynamics and Decomposition rate of Norway Spruce Needles in Stråsan and Lajim stands
Climate changes due to changes in a habitat leads to differences in the rate of decomposition and nutrient dynamics of leaflitters, which has many effects on the controlling factors of the decomposition process. In the present study, the rate of decomposition and nutrient dynamics of Norway spruce was evaluated for 363 days in the two forestation sites in the natural and foreign habitats, ...

KRAIGHER H. & HANKE D.E. 1996. Cytokinins in Norway spruce seedlings and forest soil pollution. Phyton (Horn, Ausrtia) 36 (3): (57) (60). Cytokinins can correlate with pollution damage in spruce trees and also with different strains and species of their mycorrhizal symbionts. In our study, Norway spruce seedlings were grown in vitro on sterilized or nonsterile soil substrates from two different...
