Abstract

Comparisons of understory vegetation between the burned and the unburned area, and effects of fire on seed germination of Melica onoei, which increased importance value in burned area, were investigated in the black pine forest. The number of plant species in burned and unburned area was 38 and 20, respectively. Melica onoei, indigofera kirilowii, Lespedeza bicolor Miscanthus sinensis were the most abundant species in burned area. A number of seedlings and sprouts of these species were found in burned area. Standing biomass of understory vegetation in burned and unburned area was 88.7g/㎡ and 299.8g/㎡, respectively, in the immediate postfire year. However, standing biomass in burned area increased to 537.2g/㎡ and relative standing biomass of Melica onoei was the highest with a value of 25.7% in the second year Seed germination of Melica onoei in control(C), dark (D), leaf (L), leaf extract (E) treatment was 92.5%, 86.0%, 45.5% and 39.0%, respectively. However, seed germination in L+E and D+L+E treatment was 10.5% and 4.0%, respectively. It is assumed that higher importance value of M. onoei in the postfire vegetation in this study area might be due to the removal of allelopathic inhibitors and the improvement of light condition after fire.

산불이 곰솔림 하층식생의 구조와 쌀새(Melica onoei)의 종자발아에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 수관화 지소에서 당년에 출현한 종 수는 38종으로 비산화지소의 20종에 비해 현저히 증가되었다 우점종은 쌀새, 참억새, 땅비싸리, 싸리 순이었으며, 이들의 실생과 기존의 그루터기에서 나온 새순이 많이 관찰되었다. 산화 당년에 수관화 지역의 하층식생 지상부 생물량은 299.8g/㎡로 비산화지의 3배 이상이었으며, 이듬해 9월에는 하층식생의 지상부 생물량이 537.2 g/㎡로 전년도에 비해 약 1.8배 증가하였고, 비산화지소에 비해 5.8배 높았다. 이중 쌀새가 차지하는 비율은 전체의 25.7%로 가장 높았다. 쌀새의 종자발아율은 대조구가 92%이 었으며, 암처리구(D)는 86%로 대조구와 1% 수준에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 솔잎(L)과 솔잎 추출물(E) 처리구의 발아율은 각각 45.5%, 39%로 낮았으며, 대조구와 0.5%수준에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. L+E, D+L+E 처리구의 발아율은 각각 10.5%와 4.0%로 대조구와 모두 0.1% 수준에서 유의하였다. 본 수관화 지소에서 쌀새의 우점도가 증가하는 것은 쌀새의 발아를 억제하던 타감효과 물질이 산불에 의해 제거되었고 동시에 광 조건이 개선되었기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.
