摘要: Water and nitrogen (N) are major constraints that affect plant growth and survival. N deposition can enhance plant photosynthetic capacity and drought tolerance. However, the ecophysiological processes of plants in response to N deposition associated with drought stress are unclear. We investigated the allocation patterns of biomass and nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC) among different organs in response to the addition of ammonium nitrate in Mongolian oak seedlings along a drought stress gradient. This study used pot experiment with three levels of N addition (CK: 0, LN: 5 and HN: 10 g N m(-2) yr(-1)) in conjunction with three irrigated water volumes (W0: 36 L, W1: 25 L, reduction 30%, and W2: 18 L, reduction 50 %). The results showed drought stress, resulting in a decreasing trend in photosynthesis, had been reversed by N addition, and trends in water use efficiency also appeared to increase. Similarly, drought caused a decreasing trend in the biomass and the decreases in the ratio of root-to-shoot (R:S) and total biomass at the whole-seedling level. The enhancements in aboveground biomass were induced by N addition regardless of water conditions. Adversely, root biomass appeared to decrease under normal water conditions (W0) and increased under drought stress. In addition, leaf soluble sugar (SS) concentration and leaf SS: starch increased with N addition under W0 and decreased under severe drought (W2). When water and N availability were abundant, the carbon (C) use strategy of Mongolian oak seedlings focused on aboveground growth to get more carbohydrates. However, when water availability was in severe deficit, the C use strategy of seedlings shifted from growth to protection and defense by restoring more carbohydrates in stems or roots to survive the harsh environments, even when N availability was adequate. This study provided new insights into the understanding of C use strategy and drought survival mechanism in response to environmental change.
