Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the biological field, and in particular to a method for distinguishing Quercus variabilis and Quercus acutissima. Background Art

[0002] The cork oak (Quercus variabilis Bl.) is widely distributed in my country and has important ecological benefits. The cork layer produced by the differentiation of its cork cambium is green and renewable, commonly known as "soft gold". It is widely used in aviation, transportation, building materials and other fields, and has great economic value and application prospects. Quercus acutissima is a close species of the cork oak.

[0003] At present, the distinction between Quercus variabilis and Quercus acutissima is generally judged by the degree of bark depression, the color of the back of the leaves, and whether the back of the leaves is densely covered with pubescence. When the leaves of Quercus acutissima are young, the back of the leaves is covered with light green pubescence. When they are mature, the leaves are smooth and the back of the leaves is light green. The back of the mature leaves of Quercus variabilis is white and densely covered with pubescence. There is no description of a systematic distinction method. This distinction method is generally applicable to perennial Quercus variabilis and Quercus acutissima, and this method has the disadvantage of being limited by the growth period. There is no systematic report on how to accurately and effectively distinguish the two in microscopic morphology, and the above distinction method has certain limitations:

[0004] 1. Distinguishing between the two based on personal experience is prone to subjective errors and is not rigorous and scientific;

[0005] 2. When trees shed their leaves, it is impossible to identify species based on the leaves;

[0006] 3. Generally applicable to perennial Quercus variabilis and Quercus acutissima. When the trees are young, the bark and leaf morphology of the two are similar, the bark is smooth, the back of the leaves are densely covered with pubescence, and the color is not significantly distinguished, so it cannot be judged by the bark and leaf morphology. In addition, the back color of the leaves of Quercus variabilis sometimes shows individual differences, which can easily be confused with Quercus acutissima (for example, the back color of the leaves of Quercus variabilis individual plants of different families aged 1 to 2 years is green, which can easily be mistaken for Quercus acutissima). Summary of the invention

[0007] In view of the technical problems that the current method for distinguishing Quercus variabilis and Quercus acutissima has large errors and is prone to misjudgment when the trees are young, the present application proposes a method for distinguishing Quercus variabilis and Quercus acutissima.
