英文摘要 | Plant nitrogen (N) use is a key component of the N cycle in terrestrial ecosystems. The supply of N to plants affects community species composition and ecosystem processes such as photosynthesis and carbon (C) accumulation. However, the availabilities and relative importance of different N forms to plants are not well understood. While nitrate (NO3 −) is a major N form used by plants worldwide, it is discounted as a N source for Arctic tundra plants because of extremely low NO3 − concentrations in Arctic tundra soils, undetectable soil nitrification, and plant-tissue NO3 − that is typically below detection limits. Here we reexamine NO3 − use by tundra plants using a sensitive denitrifier method to analyze plant-tissue NO3 −. Soil-derived NO3 − was detected in tundra plant tissues, and tundra plants took up soil NO3 − at comparable rates to plants from relatively NO3 −-rich ecosystems in other biomes. Nitrate assimilation determined by15N enrichments of leaf NO3 − relative to soil NO3 − accounted for 4 to 52% (as estimated by a Bayesian isotope-mixing model) of species-specific total leaf N of Alaskan tundra plants. Our finding that in situ soil NO3 − availability for tundra plants is high has important implications for Arctic ecosystems, not only in determining species compositions, but also in determining the loss of N from soils via leaching and denitrification. Plant N uptake and soil N losses can strongly influence C uptake and accumulation in tundra soils. Accordingly, this evidence of NO3 − availability in tundra soils is crucial for predicting C storage in tundra. © 2018 National Academy of Sciences. All Rights Reserved. |
