Abstract:
In order to study the impact of land utilization types on accumulation and mineralization of soil organic carbon mineralization in agropastoral transitional zone,the mineralization content of soil organic carbon and mineralization rate of three land utilization types soil (Alfalfa pasture, Naked oatsalfalfa rotation, Crop farmland) in agropastoral transitional zone have been investigated. The results showed that alfalfa field contained the highest organic carbon and naked oatsalfalfa rotation was the lowest. In the same humidity and temperature condition, the amount of soil organic carbon mineralization of three land utilization types were all decreased with the increment of time. Soil organic carbon mineralization showed a significant positive correlation with month mineralization content (P0.01). Soil organic carbon mineralization increased with soil nitrogen and the correlation was not significant.

Abstract:
Taking sandy soil of Yinchuang, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region as research object, the organic carbon content, moisture, microbial quantity and enzyme activities of soils, that were treated with different methods, including without any treatment(A, control), adding poplar woody chips(B), adding poplar woody chips+covering with willow branches(C) and covering with mixed woody chips of poplar and willow(D), were tested in this study. The results indicated that, treatments of B, C and D could significantly increase soil organic carbon content, moisture and microbial quantity(bacteria, fungi and actinomyces), especially the quantity of bacteria and actinomyces. The activities of urease and catalase were largely improved by treatment B and C. However, the urease activity of treatment D was lower than that of control, and the catalase activity treatment D had no significant difference with control(P0.05). The results of correlation analysis indicated that, there were significant correlations among soil organic carbon content, moisture, bacterial quantity, fungi quantity, actinomyces quantity, urease activity and catalase activity(P0.05). So adding organic matters can significantly improve sandy soil and increase soil bacterial activities.

Abstract:
A split plot design has been carried out to study the effects of reseeding and sward ripping in the fence on vegetation height, total coverage, aboveground biomass and species diversity index summation of functional groups since June 2011 in a reseeding and sward ripping experiment on degraded subalpine meadow in Lintan County of Gannan City, Gansu Province. The results showed that pasture coverage, aboveground biomass and species diversity index of functional groups, treated by sward ripping, increased with reseed amount, while vegetation height increased with reseed amount at first, and then decreased. There has been a significant interaction between reseeding and sward ripping (P0.01), reseeding 3 combining with sward ripping has a positive effect on aboveground biomass of pasture, coverage, species diversity index of functional groups, the maximum reaching 201.5 gm-2, 88.2% and 1.203 respectively. The vegetation height tested by reseeding 1 and sward ripping reached 11.7 cm. On the basis of the average value of different reseeding amount, the vegetation height, coverage, aboveground biomass and species diversity index of functional groups of sward ripping were significantly higher than the control one (without sward ripping). In conclusion, correlation degree analysis indicated that treatment reseeding 2 with sward ripping was the best choice considering of height, total coverage, aboveground biomass and species diversity index of functional groups.

Abstract:
QinghaiTibet Highway, a sensitive area to global climate change, passes through Tibetan Plateau from north to south. It is significantly important to study the characteristics of species diversity and its correlation to environmental factors along QinghaiTibet Highway. The characteristics of the roadside plant communities and its correlation with environmental factors of 29 samples whose number was 1 to 29 from Xining to Lhasa along QinghaiTibet Highway were investigated and analyzed. The results showed that the vegetation coverage of Tibetan Plateau decreased rapidly and then increased slowly from north to south, the lowest was sample plot 7 (AErCiTuoShan). The species richness firstly decreased and then increased, finally decreased rapidly, the lowest was sample plot 14 (Fenghuoshan Tunnel) and the highest was sample plot 26 (Jiachigang). The ShannonWiener index and Simpson index showed a decreasing trend excluding several sample plots. However, the Pielou index decreased slowly and then increased rapidly, the lowest was sample plot 22 (Tuo Qing Village). The Alatalo index had an opposite trend but a large fluctuation with Pielou index. The correlation and stepwise regression analyses between species diversity and environmental factors suggested that species coverage, species richness and species evenness index (Pielou index) were positively influenced mainly by the water factors. The species diversity index (ShannonWeiner index and Simpson index) and species evenness index (Alatalo index) had a significant correlation to shortwave radiation.

Abstract:
The objective of this study is to calculate the grassland aboveground biomass (GAB) of Xinjiang Fukang in 1990, 1999 and 2008, using remote sensing images, meteorological data, the Yearbook, previous findings and classification results, the animalfeed balance and the number of animals were analyzed respectively. The results showed that, 1) in recent 20 years, the total area and aboveground biomass of pasture decreased consistently, the aboveground biomass in 2008 reduced by 4.66% compared to 1990; 2) the number of livestock continued to increase from 1990 to 2008, meanwhile total available forage reserves was 3.77105t, 3.64105t, 3.63105t respectively. The animalfeed balance was as follows: the grassland underrun was 29.6% in 1990, 4.91% in 2008, the overloaded was about 9.67% in 1999. Combined with the classification images, climate change and the amount of livestock, it was concluded that from 1990 to 2008, agriculture reclamation occupying grassland led to a reduction of GAB, meanwhile the amount of livestock increased yearly, which induced the pressure of carrying capacity per unit grassland. This situation changed after the implementation of the grazing forbidden project in 2005. In order to develop grassland ecosystem and livestock successfully, attention should be pay to increase the intensity of realtime monitoring of grassland productivity and manage pastoral production.

Abstract:
In order to study the effect of turfgass stress resistance and green enhancer chilling resistance on turfgrass, chlorophyll content, activity of CAT, SOD, POD and PAL were measured in leaves of Zoysia tenuifolia with the application of turfgass stress resistance and green enhancer before or after natural low temperature. The results showed that chlorophyll content and the activity of CAT and POD increased after the application of turfgass stress resistance and green enhancer. However, there were no response of the activity of SOD and PAL. Compared with control, the activity of CAT and POD was significantly increased with the application of turfgass stress resistance and green enhancer before or after the natural low temperature. The effect of turfgass stress resistance and green enhancer was the best when applied before the natural low temperature. Therefore, turfgass stress resistance and green enhancer was recommended to apply before the natural low temperature in order to effectively improve the ability of reactive free radicals, reduce its damages to biological membrane and improve the chilling resistance and ornamental effects.

Abstract:
The effects of trampling stress on different soilfree turf substrates were studied in this study. The results showed that, a reasonable soilfree turf medium can improve the capacity of resistance to trampling and ornamental value of turfgrass. In this study, both the turfgrass growth substrate layer and elastic material layer in soilfree substrates were 25 mm, and individual. They had a reasonable structure and thickness, which could overcome the shortcomings of thick substrate and low waterholding capacity. Under the same trampling stress, the soilfree turfs had a higher turfgrass height, plant coverage and number of tillers than that of normal turf, and the highest vales were 51.4 cm, 97.60%, and 123 tillerdm-2, respectively. Besides, the soilfree turfs could recover in a shot time after stopping trampling. However, for the same thickness, the substrate mixed turfgrass growth substrate layer and elastic material layer together had a lower ability of resistance to trampling. The soil substrate was the worst. So substrates with a individual turfgrass growth substrate layer and elastic material layer, and a reasonable thickness are fit to produce good soilfree turfs with a high capacity of resistance to trampling stress.

Abstract:
In order to investigate the effect of phenolic acids in soybean root exudate on the growth of mulberry, effects of 3Nitrophthalic acid, 2Methoxybenzoic acid on growth and photosynthesis characteristics of one year Qinglong mulberry seedlings were studied. The results showed that the effects were different among two exogenous phenolic acids. When the concentration of exogenous 3Nitrophthalic acid was lower than 10-5 molL-1, the content of chlorophyll of mulberry leaves, net photosynthetic rate (Pn), transpiration rate (Tr), stomatal conductance (Gs), intercellular CO2 (Ci) and assimilate accumulation increased with the increasing of the concentrations of 3Nitrophthalic acid, which promoted the growth of plant height, root length and biomass. When the concentration of exogenous 3Nitrophthalic acid was higher than 10-2 molL-1, the content of chlorophyll of mulberry leaves, Pn, Ci and ETR, ФPSⅡ were decreased significantly, the plant height, root length, leaf number and biomass of mulberry were also decreased. The content of chlorophyll of mulberry leaves, Gs, Tr, Pn, ФPSⅡ, ETR and photochemical quenching (qP) and the rate of energy dissipation were increased with the increasing of the concentrations of exogenous 2Methoxybenzoic acid. The study indicated that 3Nitrophthalic acid had dual effects on growth and photosynthesis characteristics of mulberry seedlings, low concentrations of 3Nitrophthalic acid may stimulate and high concentrations may inhibit growth of mulberry seedlings. 2Methoxybenzoic acid had adverse effects on the leaf photosynthetic system of mulberry seedlings

Abstract:
The effects of different shading treatments on the dry matter accumulation, leaf area, specific weight, root growth, bulb yield and diameter, flower count, flower stem length, average number of flowers per truss, flower diameter, and the highest net photosynthetic rate of Lycoris radiata were studied using a randomized block experimental method. The results showed that the total dry matter weight, specific leaf weight, average bulb stem neck diameter, root number, root length, and the root diameter decreased with the increasing of shading degree. On the contrary, the average leaf area significantly increased with the increasing of shading degree. Under four shading treatments, 0% shading treatment got the maximum total dry weight and the bulbs dry weight, while 45% shading treatment got the largest leaf dry weight, bulbs number, flower count, flower stem length, average number of flowers per truss, flower diameter, and the highest net photosynthetic rate. These results indicated that 45% shading treatment was the appropriate cultivation method of improving lycoriss cut flower production, 0% shading treatment was the suitable cultivation method for the purpose of bulbs harvest.

Abstract:
Phenotype variation for 14 morphologic traits of 15 Medicago sativa accessions were analyzed. The results showed that there were extensive variations in morphology. The most significant variance lay in branch number (32.58%), followed by pod length (27.21%), and floret length (10.47%) was the least. Mean while, coefficient of variation and principal component analysis showed that five characters including branch number, pod length, lateral branch number, panicle length and pod number were main factors which produced morphological variation of M.sativa. Based on the morphological traits, cluster analysis showed that all 15 accessions of M.sativa had been divided into two parts.

Abstract:
There were 19 species of weeds, belonging to 8 families, in alfalfa fields at Ordos, which was investigated by the method of Thomas invented W and visual observation with random sampling of multilateral plots. The resultes indcated that the most harmful weeds were mainly from the family of Gramineae and Chenopodiaceae, followed by Amaranthaceae, Compositae and Boraginaceae. In addition, the main weed communities after the first harvest of alfalfa were Salsola collina+Chloris virgata+Amaranthus retrofexus+Echinochloa crusgalli+Lithospermum arvense+Chenopodium glaucum+Xanthium sibiricum+Setaria viridis. Among them, the hazard level of first four weeds was highest, showing a higher hazard degree on alfalfa than other weeds. However, after the second harvest, C.virgata+S.collina+L.arvense+C.glaucum+A.retrofexus+S.viridis were investigated as the dominant weed communities in alfalfa field. Among them, the hazard level was higher among first three weeds. Moreover, the index influence of weeds based on the method of fuzzy synthetic evaluation was established to reflect comprehensively the influence degree of different weed components after the first harvest of alfalfa, that is, S.collinaE.crusgalliC.virgataA.retrofexusC.glaucumC.glaucumS.viridisX.sibiricum. Five indicators, namely, relative abundance, plant height, hazard degree, weed quality and impacts of weeds hair and thorns on palatability should be integrated to comprehensively and systematically reflect the relative harmfulness of various weed components on alfalfa.

Abstract:
Effects of temperature on dynamics of QinghaiTibet plateau Elymus nutans fermentation quality in the process of ensiling was investigated. The material was derived from Guoluo Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Qinghai Province. Plastic bag silage was finished in local area and was put in 15 ℃and 25 ℃ in the laboratory. The bags of each treatment were opened 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 14, 30 and 60 d after ensilage. The results showed that pH value decreased slowly to 5.68, the lactic acid content increased to 1.44% at 15 ℃, and the fermentation quality was ineffective. 25 ℃ lowered the pH value and increased lactic acid content significantly (P0.05). The pH value was reduced to 4.27 and the lactic acid content was increased to 6.21%, which achieved good effects of silage. AN/TN value gradually increased with storage time, the acetic acid content increased significantly during the first 4 d (P0.05). Water soluble carbohydrate content decreased at the end of the fermentation significantly (P0.05) and remained stable. Temperature had no significant effect on the contents of crude protein, neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber (P0.05).
