Ecophysiology and population biology of the perennial halophytic shrub Allenrolfea occidentalis (S. Wats.) Kuntze (Chenopodiaceae) growing in a salt playa near Goshen, northwestern Utah.
Allenrolfea occidentalis (S. Wats.) Kuntze (Chenopodiaceae) is a stem succulent halophytic shrub and is widely distributed in inland salt marshes and salt playas of the western United States. The effect of salinity, temperature, and growth regulating compounds on the seed germination, nutrient relations and ecophysiology of A. occidentalis plants in relations to salinity both in the field and laboratory conditions was investigated. The results indicated that the best germination of A. occidentalis occurred in distilled water and seeds could germinate up to 800 mM NaCl at warmer thermoperiod (25-35{dollar}spcirc{dollar}C). Germination percentage decreased with increase in salinity. High salinity did not affect the germination ability of seeds and the seeds promptly germinated when salinity stress was removed. Germination regulating chemicals (betaine, ethephon, fusicoccin, GA{dollar}sb3,{dollar} kinetin, nitrate, proline, and thiourea) were able to alleviate the salinity effect on seed germination. Growth of A. occidentalis was promoted at low density and at 600 to 800 mM NaCl. Growth promotion at above seawater concentration has not been reported before. Allenrolfea occidentalis is an ion accumulating, succulent halophyte and maintain progressively negative water potential with corresponding increase in soil salinity. Increase in the density of plants inhibited growth promotion.

Wats。)昆茨(藜科)是一种多肉茎类盐生灌木,广泛分布于美国西部的内陆盐沼和盐滩。在田间和实验室条件下,研究了盐度,温度和生长调节化合物对西洋曲霉种子萌发,养分关系和生理生态的影响。结果表明,西方曲霉的最佳萌发发生在蒸馏水中,种子可以在较热的温度(25-35℃)下发芽,最高可达800 mM NaCl。随着盐度的增加,发芽率降低。高盐度不影响种子的发芽能力,去除盐分胁迫后种子立即发芽。调节发芽的化学物质(甜菜碱,乙烯利,夫西星,GA,美元激动素,硝酸盐,脯氨酸和硫脲)能够减轻盐分对种子发芽的影响。在低密度和600至800 mM NaCl的条件下,西洋曲霉的生长得以促进。以前没有报道在高于海水浓度下促进生长。西方Allenrolfea occidentalis是一种离子积累,多肉的盐生植物,在土壤盐分相应增加的情况下,逐渐保持负水势。植物密度的增加抑制了生长促进。
