摘要
Plants of the fern Matteuccia struthiopteris from northern and southern populations in Norway were studied in a phytotron. Relative growth rate (RGR), growth period, and sporophyll production were measured under different photoperiod (12-24 h) day-length and temperature (9 - 21 degreesC) treatments. For the southern plants, there were no significant differences between the different light treatments, but for the northern plants there was a significant (p < 0.01) linear increase in the mean maximum RGR with increasing day-length. Small, but statistically significant (p < 0.01) differences were found between northern and southern plants when the mean maximum RGR-values were compared. When plants from different origin were exposed to different treatment, there were major differences between the populations in the production of sporophylls (p < 0.0001). Southern plants produced in average three times more sporophylls than the northern plants, and they had also higher proportions of fertile plants. Diurnal alternating temperature treatments gave no significant (p > 0.05) effect on the mean maximum RGR compared with constant temperatures, but they gave significantly higher production of sporophylls. In general, the northern plants had a higher temperature threshold (approximately 12 degreesC) for sporophyll production than the southern plants (approximately 9 degreesC). Plants exposed to 24 h with natural light were generally more often fertile than plants exposed to a shorter photoperiod. The mean maximum RGR-values and time needed to develop the fronds at the 9 degreesC treatment were fairly equal to those found under natural conditions close to the altitudinal distribution limit of M. struthiopteris in W Norway. In general, the investigation showed that the applied temperature and light treatments affected sporophyll production more than vegetative growth.
