Article Synopsis
- Astringent seeds from Chinese fir are recognized as abortive seeds, with unclear causes, prompting a study on their potential to reduce aluminum ion toxicity.
- The study treated seeds and seedlings with low and high concentrations of astringent seed water extracts under aluminum stress, finding that low concentration extract significantly improved seed germination and seedling growth.
- Results showed a 36.95% increase in root elongation and reduced aluminum accumulation at root tips, while high concentrations failed to provide similar benefits, suggesting a potential environmental advantage for seeds in proximity to astringent seeds.

Given the facts that urban land is extremely limited and ecological environment protection is confronted with severe challenges, it is of great importance to effectively construct green infrastructure (GI) network and identify relatively important landscape ecological components. We identified and prioritized GI network centers in Fuzhou downtown area using the MSPA and the landscape connectivity evaluation. The least cost path method and gravity model were used to construct the potential corridors at multiple levels.

We employed a comparative study to examine the effects of tree species transition on soil microbial biomass, community composition and enzymes activities under Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.) Hook, Eucalyptus grandis and a N-fixing species, Acacia melanoxylon in subtropical China. Results showed that the effect of tree species on soil microbial community and enzymes activities was significant only in the 0-10 cm soil layer.
