摘要: 通过对崖柏球果的长度、宽度和质量以及出种量的调查和统计分析发现,崖柏天然分布的雪宝山和大巴山两个不同地域崖柏球果的长、宽以及风干质量之间不存在显著差异,而同一地域不同崖柏植株之间的球果特征存在显著差异。在崖柏球果中,无种子的球果占7. 1%; 每个球果的出种量较少,仅为3 粒; 崖柏种子的千粒质量为1. 126 4 g;同一崖柏植株不同球果之间的出种量没有明显差异,说明同一植株的有性生殖过程是同步的,球果的发育程度比较接近。Abstract: The length, width ,weight and seed output of the cones of Thuja sutchuenensis were analysed. No significant difference was found on length, width and dryweight of cones from two natural distribution of Thu ja sutchuenensis-Xuebaoshan and Dabashan mountains. But the effect of differentmother p lants under the same condition on thesecharacterswas significant. For the cones of Thuja sutchuenensis, the p roportion of the coneswithout seed was 7. 1%.The average p lump seed number per cone was 3. The 1 000 seed weight of Thuja sutchuenensis was lighter, only1.126 4 g. No significant difference was found for the seed number in different cones from the same mother p lant.This showed that for the same mother p lant the sexual rep roduction was in the same developmental level and conesdevelopment was nearly the same.
