英文摘要 | Nitrogen deposition and precipitation change are not only hot topics of current global change but also the main environmental factors affecting plant growth. Thus, the effects of nitrogen and precipitation on the life history of spring-(SG) and autumn-germinated (AG) ephemeral plants of Erodium oxyrhynchum were researched in the Gurbantunggut Desert, northern China, and the aim was to understand the response of plants from different germination seasons to global change. SG and AG plants with increased nitrogen and precipitation plus nitrogen treatments were measured to determine seedling survival, phenology, plant traits, biomass accumulation and allocation and dormancy characteristics of offspring (seeds). The results showed that increased nitrogen and precipitation plus nitrogen treatments significantly improved the survival of SG and AG plants during the seedling stage, and precipitation plus nitrogen treatments also improved the growth and seed production of SG and AG plants, but increased nitrogen significantly inhibited their growth and seed production. Therefore, precipitation plays an important role in regulating nitrogen uptake by plants in arid and semiarid ecosystems. With increased nitrogen, SG and AG plants allocated more biomass into root and reproductive organs but allocated significantly less biomass into the leaf, with almost no change in biomass allocation to the stem. With nitrogen plus precipitation treatments, biomass allocation in all organs of SG and AG plants showed almost no change. Clearly, changes in soil moisture also affected biomass allocation of SG and AG plants. For offspring dormancy, SG and AG plants produced more nondormancy seeds with increased nitrogen but produced more dormancy seeds under precipitation plus nitrogen treatments. Hence, in a harsh environment, SG and AG plants produced more nondormancy offspring with low reproduction in order to occupy the habitat rapidly in the following year or produced more dormancy offspring with high reproduction in a suitable environment intended for spreading germination risk in time and conserve the population.
