摘要
The biomass, root morphology and nutrient uptake capacities of 15 species of local wetland plants were investigated in hydroponic culture. The wetland plants were exposed to 38.5mg center dot L-1 of NH[image omitted]-N, 132.8mg center dot L-1 of NO[image omitted]-N and 10mg center dot L-1 of dissolved inorganic P for 28days. Mean total biomass of the 15 species ranged from 1.2 to 21.6gplant-1, with above/below ground ratios (AG:BG) in the range 1.7-5.5. Mean NH[image omitted]-N, NO[image omitted]-N uptake rates ranged from 3.7 to 14.3mgN center dot day-1 (accounting for 8.0-49.4% of the NH[image omitted]-N supply) and 17.8 to 59.4mgN center dot day-1 (17.8-59.6% of the NO[image omitted]-N supply). Mean P uptake rate ranged from 1.71 to 4.61mgP center dot day-1 (24.1-61.5% of the P supply). The N and P concentrations in plant tissues ranged from 28.2 to 606.1mgN center dot plant-1 and 4.1 to 53.1mgP center dot plant-1, with AG:BG ratio in the range 1.7-7.0 and 1.6-4.6, respectively. The accumulation of N and P in plant tissues was both significantly correlated with plant biomass and root surface area. Among the different species, Canna generalis, Typha latifolia, Thalia dealbata and Lythrum salicaria had greater above- and below-ground biomass, larger root surface area, and greater nutrient uptake and storage rates than the other plants. Our results suggest (or indicate) that the selection of plant species suitable for constructed wetlands can be based on plant biomass and root surface area.
