定量分析了被废弃4年、9年和14年的农田地上派生的次生林土壤中种子组成和密度,从而检测在次生林演替形成过程中,土壤种子库是否能随着植物种群的集成而集成.分别在废弃了4年、9年和14年的农田地里(15 cm×15 cm样方、9 cm土层深),掘取了18,37和48份土壤样品.在废弃了4,9和14年的农田地上,分别发现了3,5和9个物种.在这些不同的生命形态中,在9年和14年的迹地上,土壤种子树木占主要成分,分别为60%和33%,而4年废弃迹地主要被非木本植物所占领.三块废弃地里,4年废弃迹地植物种子的总数为327粒,相应可发育的种子密度为141粒/m~2,14年废弃迹地种子的总数为46粒,相应的可发育种子的密度为26粒/m~2,指明种子数、种子密度随废弃地龄成下降趋势.在9年和14年龄废弃地上,土壤种子植物种类与立地木本植物种类的相似度较低,而4年龄地上两者比较则完全不同.我们认为:土壤种子库的物种构成是在次生演替过程中逐渐形成的,但是,所获得的总体种子密度太低,仅仅依赖于这些种子来实现树木自然再生是不可靠的.为了加快这些废弃地次生林的恢复,既要依靠自然集成的土壤种子库,还需要通过直播、所需物种的强化种植和设定人工生长环境以利于种子传播.“,”The composition and density of seeds in soils of secondary forests derived on abandoned fields after 4, 9 and 14 years of aban-donment were quantified to examine whether the soil seed bank assembles during secondary succession as the plant communities assemble. A total of 18, 37 and 48 soil samples from 4-, 9- and 14-year old sites, respectively were collected in 15 cm × 15 cm plots up to 9 cm depth. A total of 3, 5 and 9 species were found on sites abandoned 4, 9 and 14 years ago, respectively. Among different life forms, trees were highly represented in the soil seed bank of 9-year (60%) and 14-year (33%) old sites compared to 4-year old site entirely dominated by non-woody flora. The total number of seeds ranged from 327 in the 4-year old site to 146 in the 14-year old site, and the corresponding density of viable seeds ranged from 141 seeds ·m~（-2） in the 4- year old site to 26 seeds m~（-2） in the 14-year old site with a consistent decreasing pattern in the chronosequence. The similarity between the soil seed flora and the standing woody vegetation was low for both 9- and 14-year old sites while complete dissimilarity was found for 4-year old site. We concluded that the species composition of soil seed banks assemble gradually during secondary succession, but the overall seed density is still low for natural regeneration of trees to rely on. To expedite the recovery of secondary forests on such abandoned fields, the seed bank needs to be supplemented by direct seeding, enrichment planting of desired species and installing artificial perches for facilitating seed dispersal.
