    Abstract:
    To understand the nutrient use strategies of 11 tree species in a subtropical common-garden, we measured the specific leaf area, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) resorption and stoichiometric characteristics of leaves in August 2019. The results showed that the specific leaf area, N and P concentrations in mature and senescent leaves of evergreen broadleaved (Lindera communis, Cinnamomum camphora, Schima superba, Castanopsis carlesii, Michelia macclurei and Elaeocarpus decipiens) and coniferous species (Cunninghamia lanceolata and Pinus massoniana) were lower than those of deciduous broadleaved species (Liquidambar formosana, Sapindus mukorossi and Liriodendron chinense). In contrast, C:N and C:P in mature leaves of evergreen broadleaved and coniferous species were significantly higher than those of deciduous broadleaved species. Except for C. carlesii, the N:P of all the species were lower than 14. Compared with other tree species, N and P resorption efficiencies of S. mukorossi were higher than 50% based on both mass and leaf area. Although P resorption efficiency of P. massoniana, C. lanceolata and C. camphora were higher than 50%, N and P resorption efficiency of M. macclurei were the lowest with only 15%-30%. In addition, specific leaf area of mature leaves was significantly positively correlated with N and P concentrations, but negatively correlated with C:N and C:P. In the common-garden, evergreen broadleaved species such as C. carlesii and L. communis, and coniferous species such as P. massoniana might belong to the slow investment species with lower specific leaf area, N and P concentrations, displaying relatively efficient in N and P resorption and utilization in comparison with other species. In contrast, deciduous broadleaved species such as S. mukoraiensis might be the fast investment species with low N and P use efficiency. Interestingly, tree species being restricted by N availability did not exhibit higher N resorption efficiency in the common-garden. Similarly, C. carlesii, the only P-restricted species here, did not exhibit higher P resorption efficiency. Our results provided scientific support for afforestation practice in the mid-subtropics. 于2019年8月研究中亚热带同质园11个树种叶片的比叶面积、氮(N)和磷(P)养分重吸收和化学计量特征,分析其养分利用策略。结果表明: 常绿阔叶树种(香叶、香樟、木荷、米槠、醉香含笑和杜英)和常绿针叶树种(杉木和马尾松)成熟叶和衰老叶的比叶面积、N和P含量普遍低于落叶阔叶树种(枫香、无患子和鹅掌楸),而成熟叶片C∶N和C∶P则表现为常绿阔叶树种和常绿针叶树种高于落叶阔叶树种。除米槠外,同质园其他树种N∶P均小于14。相对于其他树种,基于单位质量与单位面积计算的无患子N和P重吸收率均高于50%,马尾松、杉木和香樟P重吸收率也高于50%,而醉香含笑N和P重吸收率最低,仅为15%～30%。成熟叶比叶面积与N和P含量呈显著正相关,而与C∶N和C∶P呈显著负相关。在同质园中,米槠和香叶等常绿阔叶树种与马尾松等常绿针叶树种属于缓慢投资-收益型树种,其通过降低叶片比叶面积以及N、P含量,减少养分损失,从而实现较高的N、P重吸收程度与利用效率。然而,无患子等落叶阔叶树种属于快速投资-收益型树种,N和P利用效率相对较低。此外,同质园树种多受N限制,却不具有较高的N重吸收率,而唯一受P限制的米槠也不具有高P重吸收率。这些结果深入认识了中亚热带不同类型树种的N和P养分利用特点,可为区域造林实践提供科学依据。.
