Because aborigines believed that cross-markings on its leaves can be used to forecast occurrence of typhoons of the year, it is locally called “tai feng cao”. This plant is recorded as a C4 plant, which is commonly adapted to high light and high temperature environment, growing in varied light environment at field. In this thesis, the number and distribution pattern of cross-markings on the leaves of S. palmifolia plants in different environments, and the formation of cross-markings were studied. The shade-tolerant mechanisms of the plant were also investigated. During the experiment, that leaves showed changing of brightness after illuminating with different intensities of light. This phenomenon was also explored. Morphological and anatomical features, optical properties and physiological performance of field growing and greenhouse grown plants were analyzed. The cross-markings on leaves of S. palmifolia can be classified into two types, folding and wrinkles. Each leaf had only one folding but numerous wrinkles. Measurements on field growing and greenhouse grown plants revealed that S. palmifolia plants under different environment grew different length of leaf blade. The distance between the folding and proximal end of the leaf blade was significantly positive correlated with the length of leaf blade, while the relative location of folding was negatively correlated with the length of leaf blade. However, the number and distribution pattern of wrinkles were more complex than those of foldings. No difference was found in cross sections between the part of folding (or wrinkles) and other part of leaves. Paraveinal sections revealed that the formation of folding was due to leaf tissues being compressed upward, while that of wrinkles being pressed concavely. Therefore, the formation of the two types of cross-markings might be induced by different forces. After investigating developing leaves, the formation of folding on developing leaf was caused by wrapping and compressing of ligule of the previous leaf. While the formation of wrinkles can’t be telled from current observation. Phenotypic plasticity was found in S. palmifolia plants grown in different light environment. Plants in shady treatment had significantly larger leaf area per dry mass (SLA) and thiner leaves than those received full sun light treatment. An increased in SLA would increase light intercepting area with the same amount of biomass allocating which might benefit S. palmifolia growing under low-light condition. Significantly higher photosaturated photosynthetic rate and higher light saturation point were measured on plants received full sun light treatment than shady treatment. Mesophyll chloroplasts of S. palmifolia showed avoidance response (resulting in increment of transmittance) under illumination of light intensities higher than 700 μmol m-2 s-1, while showed accumulation response (resulting in reduction of transmittance) at light intensities lower than 300 μmol m-2 s-1. The behavior of chloroplast movements may optimize photosynthetical light use efficiency of leaves under low-light conditions while reduce the risk of photodamage of leaves under high light stress. Phenotypic plasticity and chloroplast movement response confer S. palmifolia ability to grow under varied light environment.中文摘要 I 英文摘要 III 目錄 V 圖目錄 VII 表目錄 IX 一. 前言 1 二. 材料與方法 6 (一). 野外調查實驗 6 1. 實驗地與光度因子 6 2. 野外植株測量 6 (二). 溫室種植與光度操作實驗 10 1. 育苗與溫室種植 10 2. 溫室種植之植株葉片皺摺比較 11 3. 環境光度對生理、葉部特徵影響 11 (三). 葉綠體移動觀察 13 1. 不同光照強度下葉綠體移動程度比較 13 2. 逐時性葉綠體移動觀察比較 13 3. 生長於不同光度下植株葉片在不同光照下穿透度變化 14 (四). 統計與分析 14 三. 結果 16 (一). 野外植株調查 16 1. 樣點環境光度 16 2. 野外植株測量 17 (二). 溫室種植與光度操作實驗 29 1. 葉片皺摺比較 29 2. 摺痕構造與成因 34 3. 環境光度對生理、葉片特徵影響比較 41 (三). 葉綠體移動觀察 51 1. 葉片照射不同強度光後的光學性質變化 51 2. 葉綠體移動反應 51 3. 溫室兩種光度處理植株葉片在不同光照下穿透度變化 52 四. 討論 59 (一). 葉片皺摺 59 1. 野外植株測量 59 2. 溫室種植植株測量 59 3. 皺摺成因 60 4. 皺摺是否可以預測颱風？ 62 (二). 不同光環境下的植株形態、解剖構造、生理表現比較 64 1. 野外植株測量與葉片特徵比較 64 2. 溫室處理與生理表現比較 66 3. 葉綠體移動反應 67 (三). 結論 69 1. 生長環境因子是否會影響葉片上的皺摺數量與分布？ 69 2. 颱風草葉片上的皺摺是如何產生的？ 69 3. 颱風草如何適應不同的光環境？ 70 (四). 未來研究方向 70 五. 參考文獻 719405804 bytesapplication/pdf論文公開時間：2019/08/05論文使用權限：同意有償授權(權利金給回饋學校)颱風草C4植物皺摺葉綠體移動表型可塑性thesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/261811/1/ntu-103-R00b44008-1.pdf
