Early successional Late successional species: species:pioneer climax communities communities High growth rate Slower growth rate Small size Larger size Wide dispersal Lower rates of dispersal ·Fast population Lower rates of colonization growth 。 Longer lives
4 Early successional species: pioneer communities • High growth rate • Small size • Wide dispersal • Fast population growth Late successional species: climax communities • Slower growth rate • Larger size • Lower rates of dispersal • Lower rates of colonization • Longer lives
What is Climax Community? 顶极群落 .A climax community is a more or less permanent and final stage of a particular succession. 顶极群落:演替最终的成熟群落.每一演替系列都是由先锋阶 段开始,经过不同的演替阶段,到达中生状态的最终演替阶 段(群落类型)。 Climax communities are characterized by slow rates of change,compared with more dynamic, earlier stages. They are dominated by species tolerant of competition for resources. 5

4.3 The causes of plant succession Autogenic自发:Habitat biotic factor e.g.replacement P207 -208 of existing community by the next results from the afterlife effects of the former that makes the habitat unsuitable to continue.通过群落自身对环境的反作用使环境条件发生 变化,由于这些变化了的条件的作用形成了新的群落而引起演替 Allogenic.异发楂:Habitat abiotic factors such as soil parent material,pH,nutrients drives the direction of succession.e.g.filling of a lake with sediment and the further modified by the colonizing.plants.由于受到野火、采 伐、育林、洪水、火山活动等来自群落以外的作用所引起的演楂。 Biogenic生物进化演替:Vhen a sudden interference with an autogenic and allogenic succession by a living organism that becomes a major agent of succession e.g. herbivore,insect infestation etc.生物之活动扮演着重要关键角色 而引发的演替
