To determine the growth strategies during early regeneration stages of two major coniferous species (Pinus massoniana and Cunninghamia lanceolata) in a secondary mixed coniferous forest in the Huangshan region of Anhui Province, eastern China, we examined height growth, diameter-height relationship and the relationship between main stem and lateral branch elongation in saplings, with a particular focus on the effects of light intensity and regeneration mode (seedlings versus sprouts). When light intensity was sufficiently high, the extension growth of main stems was greater and more positively related to initial size for P. massoniana than for C. lanceolata. The slenderness of the stem form increased in the following order: C. lanceolata seedlings < P. massoniana seedlings < C. lanceolata sprouts. P. massoniana became less slender with increasing light intensity. P. massoniana had shorter branches than C. lanceolata given the same main stem elongation. Growth allocation depended more strongly on light intensity for P. massoniana than for C. lanceolata, with more growth allocated to the main stem under dark conditions. These results suggest that P. massoniana is a typical shade avoider; this species gives priority to extension growth of the main stem, especially when it is shaded. In contrast, C. lanceolata is a shade tolerator; this species allocates more biomass to radial growth of its main stems and to extension growth of branches. Based on these results, the ecological characteristics of P. massoniana and C. lanceolata and the roles of seedlings and sprouts are discussed in relation to stand dynamics of the mixed forests of P. massoniana and C. lanceolata in eastern China. To determine the growth strategies during early regeneration stages of two major coniferous species (Pinus massoniana and Cunninghamia lanceolata) in a secondary mixed coniferous forest in the Huangshan region of Anhui Province, eastern China, we examined height growth, diameter-height relationship and the relationship between main stem and lateral branch elongation in saplings, with a particular focus on the effects of light intensity and regeneration mode (seedlings versus sprouts). When the extension growth of main stems was greater and more positively related to initial size for P. massoniana than for C. lanceolata. The slenderness of the stem form increased in the following order: C. lanceolata seedlings

让画面动起来  正规学写字前,孩子们都喜欢拿着各种颜色的画笔挥洒下无穷无尽的想象,郭帆也是如此。几乎是刚学会握笔,他就扎进了绘画的海洋,“我3岁就开始画画了,到了初中又开始画漫画。”可是慢慢地,画纸上的创作已经不能满足他了,“漫画的缺陷就是没有声音,也不会动。后来我想,能动的画面,不就是电影吗?”很快,郭帆就下定决心要当个电影导演。不过,命运就是如此得调皮,他总是喜欢在每个人的人生中种下一个又一个
