英文摘要Carbon isotope ratio (delta C-13) and nitrogen isotope ratio (delta N-15) of leaf in shrubs and overground matter in herbage were measured on plant species occurring in different aged artificial sand-binding microhabitats, as well as in natural habitat at the south-eastern margin of the Tengger Desert. China Both delta C-13 and delta N-15 of C-3 and C-4 plants varied widely (-28 12 <=delta C-13 (parts per thousand)<=-23 77 and -4 45 <=delta N-15 (parts per thousand)<= 3.66 for C-3 species, respectively; and -15 79 <=delta C-13 (parts per thousand)<=-12 63 and -7.56 <=delta N-15 (parts per thousand)<= 1 08 for C-4 species, respectively). representing the different photosynthetic pathway (C-3/C-4) environmental controls. The relative abundance of C-4 species increased over the development of the sand-fixing vegetation, and the significant differences among sites in delta N-15 of C-4 plants were found. Among the microhabitats. the isotopic pattern of artificial sand-fixing community is a cluster compared to that of natural vegetation and transitional zones in C-4 plants, however, this pattern of C-3 plants is different significantly. The biological soil crust had significant effect on delta C-13 of C-3 plants, not for delta C-13 of C-4 plants and delta N-15 of both C-3 and C-4 species. Our results also describe a distinct pattern of dual-isotopic signatures, which indicated that a different water-use source and soil nitrogen compartment occurred and may promote the coexistence of different life forms in extreme poor water and nutrients ecosystems. With respect to C-4 plants, the gramineous plants based on family - level exhibit obviously negative isotopic values (both delta N-15 and delta C-13) than those of chenopodiaceous plants, indicating a high water-use efficiency of gramineous C-4 plants and more N-15 depleted, and these differences may be a result of different functional groups of C-4 species. For C-3 plants, the chenopodiaceous species also show more N-15 enrichment than those of plants from other families (e g composite. leguminous plants and others) Contrast to previous studies, the delta N-15 values of leguminous plants were not closer to the delta N-15 of atmospheric nitrogen gas, indicating that leguminous plants in research region used nitrogen mainly from other N sources such as soil, rain/dust, not mainly from biological fixed nitrogen The correlation between delta C-13 and delta N-15 of C-3 plants (except leguminous plants) were negative significantly (P=0001). while there were positive relationship between delta C-13 and delta N-15 in C-3 leguminous plants (P=0003) and C-4 plants (P<0.0001), indicating that in the water and nutrient limiting region the carbon and nitrogen discriminations are dependent and linked intimately, and vary with the plant species and photosynthetic pathway.
