Plant nitrogen (N) uptake preference is a key factor affecting plant nutrient acquisition, vegetation composition and ecosystem function. However, few studies have investigated the contribution of different N sources to plant N strategies, especially during the process of primary succession of a glacial retreat area. By measuring the natural abundance of N isotopes (δ15N) of dominant plants and soil, we estimated the relative contribution of different N forms (ammonium-NH4+, nitrate-NO3− and soluble organic N-DON) and absorption preferences of nine dominant plants of three stages (12, 40 and 120 years old) of the Hailuogou glacier retreat area. Along with the chronosequence of primary succession, dominant plants preferred to absorb NO3− in the early (73.5%) and middle (46.5%) stages. At the late stage, soil NH4+ contributed more than 60.0%, In addition, the contribution of DON to the total N uptake of plants was nearly 19.4%. Thus, the dominant plants’ preference for NO3− in the first two stages changes to NH4+ in the late stages during primary succession. The contribution of DON to the N source of dominant plants should not be ignored. It suggests that the shift of N uptake preference of dominant plants may reflect the adjustment of their N acquisition strategy, in response to the changes in their physiological traits and soil nutrient conditions. Better knowledge of plant preferences for different N forms could significantly improve our understanding on the potential feedbacks of plant N acquisition strategies to environmental changes, and provide valuable suggestions for the sustainable management of plantations during different successional stages. |
