Chengzhang Liao, Xiaoping Tang, Xiaoling Cheng, Bo Li, Yiqi Luo. Nitrogen dynamics of aerial litter of exotic Spartina alterniflora and native Phragmites australis[J]. Biodiv Sci, 2010, 18(6): 631-637.
Fig. 1 Changes of carbon and nitrogen contents in aerial leaf litter (A and C), and aerial stem and sheath litter (B and D) for exotic Spartina alterniflora and native Phragmites australis in Jiuduansha wetlands of the Yangtze Estuary. Vertical bars represent mean ± 1 SE (n = 12). Different letters indicate significant differences for litter C and N contents from different sampling times within the same species. There were statistical differences in C and N contents between Spartina and Phragmites litters except for the N content in stem and sheath litter in February and April of 2004.
Fig. 2 Comparison of nitrogen concentrations of culm (A) and sheath litter (B) between new (produced in 2005) and old aerial litter (produced in 2004) of exotic Spartina alterniflora sampled from the East Coast of China in January of 2006. There were significant differences in N concentration between new and old aerial litter across the six sites. Vertical bars represent mean ± 1 SE (n = 10). 1, Dafeng city of Jiangsu; 2, Chongming County of Shanghai; 3, Jiuduan Islands of Shanghai; 4, Zhangzhou City of Fujian; 5, Nanhui District of Shanghai; 6, Fudan University.
Fig. 3 Percent changes in stem litter mass (A) and N content (B) of exotic Spartina and native Phragmites stem litter under two treatments during glasshouse decomposition over a period of 45 days. Vertical bars represent mean ± 1 SE (n = 10). In treatment 1, the bottles were desiccated and sealed, whereas in Treatment 2, the bottles were watered and covered (not sealed). Asterisks indicate significant changes of litter mass and N content after 45-day decomposition for each species.
