Abstract

[Objective] To explore the nutrient content variation characteristics of vegetative organs (leaf, branch, stem and root) of different tree species and the forest soil in loess region of western Shanxi Province. [Method] The methods of investigation and samples analysis were used to study the contents of soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) in different organs of three typical forest species (Robinia pseudoacacia, Platycladus orientalis, Quercus liaotungensis) and in the forest soil. The stoichiometric relationships of C, N and P between leaf and the soil were discussed. [Result] The results showed that the leaf SOC contents of Q. liaotungensis, R. pseudoacacia and P. orientalis were 468.43, 454.96 and 438.53 g·kg-1, the leaf TN contents of R. pseudoacacia, Q. liaotungensis and P. orientalis were 27.52, 20.74 and 12.73 g·kg-1, the leaf TP contents of Q. liaotungensis, P. orientalis and R. pseudoacacia were 2.73, 2.15 and 1.35 g·kg-1, the leaf C:N value decreased in the order of P. orientalis>Q. liaotungensis>R. pseudoacacia, the values of C:P and N:P decreased in the order of R. pseudoacacia, P. orientalis, Q. liaotungensis and R. pseudoacacia, Q. liaotungensis, P. orientalis respectively; The SOC content of branch of the three species were the largest. The leaf TN content was the largest, while the stem was the least of the three species. The branch TP contents of P. orientalis, Q. liaotungensis and R. pseudoacacia were 3.07, 3.07 and 1.87 g·kg-1, which were significantly larger than that of the other organs; The contents of SOC, TN and TP in the forest soil decreased with the increase of soil depth, and the 010 cm soil layer was the largest, the values of C:P, N:P and C:N in different forest soils were not consistent with the variation of soil depths; The leaf SOC and TP contents in R. pseudoacacia had an extremely significant negative correlation with the soil value of C:N; the leaf SOC content was significantly negatively correlated with the soil values of C:N, C:P and N:P, and the leaf value of N:P in P. orientalis was significantly positively correlated with the soil values of C:N, C:P and N:P; the leaf SOC content and value of C:P in Q. liaotungensis had a significantly negative correlation with soil SOC content. [Conclusion] The organic carbon content of Q. liaotungensis, R. pseudoacacia and P. orientalis were higher, with 468.43, 454.96, 438.53 g·kg-1 respectively; Q. liaotungensis and R. pseudoacacia owned stronger drought stress tolerance than P. orientalis in arid region on the Loess Plateau of Western Shanxi; The local environment was more suitable for the growth and development of Q. liaotungensis, while it would limt the growth of R. pseudoacacia and P. orientalis due to soil P and N, respectively.
