Associated Forest Cover ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Water tupelo is a major component of the forest cover types Water Tupelo-Swamp Tupelo (Society of American Foresters Type 103) and Baldcypress-Tupelo (Type 102) (8). In stands containing baldcypress (Taxodium distichum) and water tupelo, baldcypress is usually predominant. In sloughs and moving water, water tupelo usually occupies the deeper parts and baldcypress the margins and more shallow parts. In deep, stagnant water the two species occupy much the same depths (19).

In several other forest cover types water tupelo may be a minor associate: Longleaf Pine-Slash Pine (Type 83), Slash Pine (Type 84), Slash Pine-Hardwood (Type 85), and Baldcypress (Type 101).

Species associated with water tupelo throughout its range are black willow (Salix nigra), swamp cottonwood (Populus heterophylla), red maple (Acer rubrum), waterlocust (Gleditsia aquatica), overcup oak (Quercus lyrata), water oak (Q. nigra), water hickory (Carya aquatica), green and pumpkin ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica and F. profunda), and sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua). Swamp tupelo (Nyssa sylvatica var. biflora), pondcypress (Taxodium distichum var. nutans), and redbay (Persea borbonia) are common associates in the Southeast.

Small tree and shrub associates of water tupelo include swamp-privet (Forestiera acuminata), common buttonbush (Cephalanthus occidentalis), waterelm (Planera aquatica), sweetbay (Magnolia uirginiana), Carolina ash (F. caroliniana), poison-sumac (Toxicodendron vernix), southern bayberry (Myrica cerifera), and dahoon (Ilex cassine).

Climate ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Annual rainfall throughout the range of water tupelo averages 1320 mm (52 in). Approximately 530 mm (21 in) of rain falls during the primary growing season, April through August. Summer months are normally much drier in the Midsouth (22).

Average summer temperature within the range of water tupelo is 27° C (81° F); average winter temperature is 7° C (45° F). Temperature extremes are 46° to -29° C (115° to -20° F). An average of 231 frost-free days occur annually over its range.

Damaging Agents ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Fire is a major enemy of water tupelo. It scorches the thin bark, allowing entrance of rot-causing fungi. The forest tent caterpillar (Malacosoma disstria) is a serious enemy in some years and locations. More than 202,350 ha (500,000 acres) of trees along the gulf coast from Louisiana through Alabama have been defoliated by this insect in a single year (26). Trees annually defoliated seldom die but may have 30 percent or less of the annual diameter growth of unattacked trees.

A foliar disease, Mycosphaerella nyssaecola, has caused premature defoliation, but impact has been negligible.

Flowering and Fruiting ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Water tupelo is polygamo-dioecious. The minute, greenish-white flowers appear before or with the leaves in March or April. Pollen is disseminated by wind and probably by bees. Fruits are oblong drupes about 1 to 4 cm (0.5 to 1.5 in) long, with a thick epicarp and fleshy mesocarp. When mature, September through December of the first year, they are dark purple with conspicuous pale dots. Each fruit contains a boney, ribbed, one-seeded stone. Stones range in color from white to dark brown or gray and some are pinkish white. There are about 990 cleaned seeds per kilogram (2.2 lbs) (30).

Seeds may be sown in fall in the nursery or may be stratified over winter and sown in the spring. For stratifying, seeds are kept in moist sand or plastic bags at 2° to 4° C (35° to 40° F) (30). Up to 30 months storage does not reduce viability of seeds that have a moisture content of 20 percent or less and are kept in polyethylene bags at a temperature of about 3° C (38° F) (3).

Nursery-sown seeds may be drilled 13 to 25 mm (0.5 to 1 in) deep at the rate of 50/m (15/ft) of row, or they may be broadcast and rolled into the soil. A seedbed density of 110 to 165 seedlings/m² (10 to 15 seedlings/ft²) is recommended. From 25 to 37 mm (I to 1.5 in) of sawdust mulch is recommended for broadcast seeds.

Genetics ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
There is considerable variation in specific gravity and fiber length among stands, between trees within a stand, and within individual trees. Depending on seed source, seedlings grown under similar water regimes have different rates of development (15).

No racial variations or hybrids have been recognized for forest-grown water tupelo.

Growth and Yield ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Growing season flooding that is just short of continuous may provide near-optimum soil moisture for growth of water tupelo (2). Any drastic change in normal water levels can decrease growth. On a good site in South Carolina, 30-year-old trees of sprout and seed origin averaged about 23 m (75 ft) tall and 33 cm (13 in) in diameter (16). (Note: determination of tree age may be difficult because the species is known to have false rings.) With an abundance of sunlight, trees growing on a good site for 50 to 75 years may reach 51 to 66 cm (20 to 26 in) in diameter above the butt swell, contain from 2 to 3.5 4.9-m (16 ft) logs, and begin development of heartwood (2).

In poorly drained swamps in the southeastern United States, average annual production of water tupelo stands was found to be between 6.3 and 7.0 m³/ha (90 and 100 ft³/acre). Ten-year average diameter growth for trees free to grow in unmanaged stands on an average site is about 8 cm (3 in) (28). Growth and Yield were tabulated at 10-year intervals for unmanaged stands in the Atchafalaya Basin of southern Louisiana as follows (9):



Age Average D.b.h. Height Total merchantable volume (peeled wood) yr cm m m³/ha 30 16.8 14 156 40 24.1 17 243 50 42.2 25 331 in ft ft³/acre 30 6.6 46 2,225 40 9.5 56 3,475 50 16.6 81 4,725 Under management, a pure even-aged stand carried to 107 cm (42 in) in diameter above the bottleneck is estimated to have an accumulative total yield of 676 m³/ha (48,282 mbf/acre, Doyle log rule) in logs and 441 m/ha (70 cords/acre). These yields are based on an assumed cutting cycle of from 8 to 15 years (28).

Basal areas between 57 and 69 m²/ha (250 and 300 ft²/acre) are not uncommon in pure unmanaged second-growth stands. For a less dense water tupelo stand in Florida, the following volumes were recorded (24):



Age Average diameter above bottleneck Total merchentable volume (outside bark) Basal area yr cm m³/ha m²/ha 60 31.8 355 38.6 70 34.8 429 44.5 in ft³/acre ft²/acre 60 12.5 5,077 168 70 13.7 6,133 194 Growth and yield of water tupelo in plantations are generally unknown. One small 17-year-old planting at a 1.7 by 1.7 m (5.5 by 5.5 ft) spacing on Falaya silt loam had 89 percent survival. The trees that grew best averaged 13.2 cm (5.2 in) in d.b.h. and were 14.9 m (49 ft) tall (5).

Reaction to Competition ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Water tupelo is classed as intolerant of shade. It will survive codominant but not overtopping competition. Water tupelo develops in pure, very dense, second-growth stands and has a tendency to stagnate. Unless stagnation is prolonged, it responds to thinning .

Seed Production and Dissemination ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Forest trees initiate seed production in about 30 years or when they are about 20 cm (8 in) in d.b.h. In a South Carolina study, however, viable seeds were produced by 2-year-old stump sprouts (27). Large trees normally produce good to excellent crops each year. Seeds are dispersed mainly by water. As long as the exocarp is intact, the fruit will float. Seeds submerged continuously in water may remain viable for at least 14 months (1).

Seedling Development ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Germination is epigeal. Seeds do not germinate until water recedes, which may be midway to late in the growing season (29). Partially shaded, wet, poorly-drained soils provide the best seedbed. Seeds buried I to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 in) deep in the soil have a better chance to germinate and establish seedlings than seeds on the soil surface. Seedling survival and development are best in full sunlight and in soil with a pH below 7.0 (25). Seedling development is better in saturated than in well-drained soil, in moving and aerated rather than stagnant water, and in shallow rather than deep water (6,7,11,17). Provided their tops are above water, seedlings can generally survive continuous flooding even if it persists throughout the growing season. Water tupelo is able to survive where it is too wet for most other species because of anatomical and physiological adaptations such as roots that allow for oxidation of the rhizosphere and controlled anaerobic respiration (12,18).

Soils and Topography ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Water tupelo grows in low, wet flats or sloughs and in deep swamps. Some of the better sites are in the sloughs and swamps along Coastal Plain rivers of the Southeast, such as the Roanoke and Santee, and in the large swamps of southwestern Louisiana and southeastern Texas. On some sites water may reach a depth of 6 m (20 ft) during rainy seasons and may remain as high as 4 m (13 ft) for long periods (21). Surface water may disappear from water tupelo areas in midsummer or fall, but on better sites soil moisture remains at or near saturation level throughout most of the growing season.

Soils that commonly support water tupelo range from mucks and clays to silts and sands and are in the orders Alfisols, Entisols, Histosols, and Inceptisols. Most are moderately to strongly acidic; subsoil frequently is rather pervious. Site index of water tupelo for several Midsouth soils ranges from 21 to 27 m (70 to 90 ft) at 50 years (4).

Special Uses ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Since water tupelo is one of the few species that can survive extended periods of inundation, it is favored for planting in very wet microsites, around buildings, in parks, and elsewhere. It is also an important wildlife species. The fruit is consumed by wood ducks, several other kinds of birds, and by squirrels, raccoons, and deer (10). Flowers have some value as a source of tupelo honey. Deer feed on foliage, twigs, and stump sprouts.

Water tupelo wood has fine, uniform texture and interlocked grain. When dried properly, the lumber is used for boxes, pallets, crates, baskets, and furniture. Buttresses of trees growing in flooded areas contain wood that is much lighter in weight than that from upper portions of the same trees. The butt portion is probably best suited for pulping products

Vegetative Reproduction ( 英语 )

由Silvics of North America提供
Water tupelo is a prolific stump sprouter. Stumps of cut seedlings 15 cm (6 in) above ground level may be better sprouters than those 1 cm (0.5 in) in height. Sprouts develop adventitiously from the higher stumps and from suppressed buds on lower stumps (14). Survival and development of sprouts from stumps of larger trees are not always satisfactory, and it may be that the occurrence and persistence of stump sprouts are related to timing and duration of flooding. In South Carolina, trees of sprout origin grew as well as seedlings over a 30-year period (16), but in southern Louisiana few stump sprouts survived beyond 6 years (20).

There are no practical techniques for reproducing water tupelo through cuttings or layering.

Illustration aus Histoire des arbres forestiers de l'Amérique septentrionale, Tafel 19

Nyssa aquatica wächst als großer, langlebiger bis 30 Meter hoher, laubabwerfender Baum mit breiter Krone. Der Stammdurchmesser erreicht über 1,2 Meter. Es werden Brettwurzeln oder Wurzelanläufe gebildet und der Stamm ist an der Basis etwas geschwollen.

Die wechselständigen, einfachen, ledrigen Laubblätter sind kurz gestielt. Der etwas behaarte Blattstiel ist bis 6 Zentimeter lang. Die unterseits mehr oder weniger flaumig behaarten und fahlgrünen Blätter sind meist ganzrandig oder mit vereinzelten, entfernten und größeren, teils spitzigen Zähnen. Sie sind eiförmig bis elliptisch oder verkehrt-eiförmig und etwa 8–20 Zentimeter lang und 5–11 Zentimeter breit. An der Spitze sind sie bespitzt oder spitz bis zugespitzt, selten abgerundet, die Blattbasis ist abgerundet oder minimal herzförmig bis keilförmig. Die Nebenblätter fehlen. Die jungen Blätter sind rötlich und behaart.

Nyssa aquatica ist polygam-diözisch genauer andro-polygam-diözisch, also mit männlichen Pflanzen mit nur männlichen Blüten und weiblichen Pflanzen mit zwittrigen und funktionell weiblichen Blüten. Die Blüten erscheinen achselständig an den neue Trieben, die kleineren, fast sitzenden männlichen Blüten in gestielten Dolden oder Köpfchen mit zwei bewimperten Vorblättern am behaarten Blütenstandsstiel, die größeren, weiblichen und zwittrigen erscheinen einzeln an behaarten Stielen. Die grünlich-weißen Blüten sind mit doppelter Blütenhülle. Der ringförmige Kelch ist sehr klein, mit minimalen Zähnchen. Es sind 5–10, früh abfallende Petalen und jeweils ein Diskus vorhanden. Die männlichen Blüten mit aufrechten Petalen, mit kleinem Blütenbecher besitzen bis zu 10 vorstehende Staubblätter mit fädigen Staubfäden, ein Pistillode fehlt meist. In den weiblichen oder zwittrigen Blüten, mit einem langen, röhrigen Blütenbecher und mit weniger oder ganz fehlenden, eingeschlossenen Staubblättern oder Staminodien mit Antheroden, ist der einkammerige Fruchtknoten unterständig, mit einem einfachen, etwas vorstehenden und an der Spitze oft eingerollten, konischen und festen Griffel. Sie sind jeweils von 2 bis 4 länglichen, langen und behaarten Deckblättern unterlegt.

Es werden an längeren Stielen herabhängende, dunkel-violette oder -bläuliche oft leicht weißlich gepunktete, bis 3 Zentimeter große, ellipsoide bis verkehrt-schmaleiförmige, leicht ledrige, glatte Steinfrüchte (Scheinfrucht) mit Griffelresten an der Spitze und einem scharf-rippgen, bräunlichen Steinkern gebildet.

Nyssa aquatica ( 英语 )

由wikipedia EN提供

Nyssa aquatica, commonly called the water tupelo,[2] cottongum,[3] wild olive,[3] large tupelo,[3] tupelo-gum,[2] or water-gum,[2] is a large, long-lived tree in the tupelo genus (Nyssa) that grows in swamps and floodplains in the Southeastern United States.[4]

Nyssa aquatica trunks have a swollen base that tapers up to a long, clear bole, and its root system is periodically under water.[4] Water tupelo trees often occur in pure stands.

Names

Nyssa aquatica's genus name (Nyssa) refers to a Greek water nymph;[5] the species epithet aquatica, meaning ‘aquatic’, refers to its swamp and wetland habitat.

One of the species' common names, tupelo, is of Native American origin, coming from the Creek words ito ‘tree’ and opilwa ‘swamp’; it was in use by the mid-18th century[6]

Uses

A large mature tree can produce commercial timber used for furniture and crates. The swollen base of the Nyssa aquatica is the source of a favored wood of wood carvers.

Many kinds of wildlife eat the fruit, and it is a favored honey tree.[4]

Zones de peuplement.

Les troncs de Nyssa aquatica présentent souvent une base évasée qui se rétrécit jusqu'à un long fût clair ; le système racinaire est souvent émergeant[4].

Les Water tupelo forment souvent des colonies d'une seule essence.

Étymologie

Le genre Nyssa fait référence à une naïade grecque[5], l'espèce aquatica, signifiant aquatique, renvoie à son habitat humide.

Le nom commun de l'espèce, « tupelo », est d'origine amérindienne, provenant des mots Creek « ito » (« arbre ») et « opilwa » (« marais ») ; il était utilisé au milieu du XVIIIe siècle[6].

Utilisations

Un arbre mature peut donner du bois d'œuvre pour le commerce, utilisé pour la fabrication de meubles et de caisses. La base du tronc, si particulière, est recherchée par les sculpteurs.

Beaucoup d'animaux se npourrissent des fruits et c'est un arbre mellifère apprécié[4].
