摘　　要：森林土壤呼吸的近 2 / 3是由林木根呼吸产生的 ,林木根呼吸对估计森林C吸存及构建森林生态系统碳动态模型有重要意义 ,是全球碳循环研究的一个重要组成部分。林木根呼吸包括生长呼吸和维持呼吸 ,不同森林生态系统林木根呼吸对土壤呼吸的贡献大多在 4 0 %～ 6 0 %范围内 ,林木根呼吸在生长季节较高而休眠季节较低。测定林木根呼吸的主要方法有排除根法、离体根法、同位素法和原位PVC管气室法 ,前两者相对简单、成本低 ,常用于森林生态系统中 ;同位素法可原位测定根呼吸 ,对土壤干扰较小 ,但不易操作 ,且成本高。根呼吸受土壤温度、根直径大小、根组织N浓度、环境CO2 浓度、土壤湿度、养分有效性等因素的影响。今后的研究应集中在以下方面 :1)探讨和比较不同条件下测定根呼吸组成 (生长呼吸、维持呼吸 )的最合适方法 ;2 )加大在野外条件下使用有效方法分离根呼吸和根际微生物呼吸的力度 ;3)对森林生态系统根呼吸动态进行长期的定位研究 ;4 )进一步加强研究不同气候带 ,不同森林类型林木根呼吸 ,并将研究尺度从气室扩大到区域或全球水平 ;5 )加强林木根呼吸对全球变化的响应及机制的研究 ;6 )对林木根呼吸进行多学科合作研究将为全球C循环做出新的贡献。Tree root respiration is a major contributor to soil CO 2 pools, and 2/3 of total forest soil respiration is from root respiration. Information about root respiration is important for understanding the implications of environmental change on soil carbon cycling and carbon sequestration, and for the development of carbon models of forest ecosystem dynamics. Furthermore, the global CO 2 flux from root respiration is estimated to be about 18 Pg C·a -1, which is an order of magnitude larger than that produced by anthropogenic sources of CO 2. Therefore, changes in forest tree root respiration could have a significant impact on the future global carbon balance. Ecological research on tree root respiration is relatively recent and still very little research on this topic has been conducted in China. In this paper, We review the characteristics, methodologies and factors affecting tree root respiration for the purpose of stimulating new, domestic research on this topic. Tree root respiration is composed of maintenance respiration and growth respiration. Maintenance respiration, the dominant component of total of total root respiration, is used to maintain the living biomass, and growth respiration, which is used to construct new biomass, is proportional to the amount of new dry matter synthesized. Root respiration rates vary significantly among forest types. The proportion of the total soil carbon flux that is attributable to live root respiration appears to be very high in cold, northern biomes, ranging from 50% to 93% in the arctic tundra and from 62% to 89% in boreal forests. In temperate zones, estimated proportions of the total soil respiration flux that is derived from live root respiration range from 33% to 50% in broad-leaved forests and from 35% to 62% in pine forests. Root respiration typically is 40%-60% of total soil respiration in most forests. Tree root respiration has significant seasonal dynamics with respiration greatest during the growing season and lowest during the dormant periods of the year
