    Notes: In the present field study we analysed the seasonal pattern of carbohydrate composition and contents in the xylem sap of Viscum album and the xylem sap of a deciduous (Populus×euramericana) and a coniferous (Abies alba) host tree species. The results were compared with the soluble carbohydrate composition and contents of mistletoe tissues. On both hosts significant amounts of glucose, fructose, and sucrose were found in the xylem sap of Viscum throughout the seasons. The general seasonal pattern of sugar contents, i.e. high concentrations in spring and lower concentrations in other seasons on Populus, and intermediate concentrations throughout the year on Abies, largely reflected the xylem sap carbohydrate composition and contents of the respective host. These observations provide indirect evidence for carbohydrate flux from the xylem sap of the host into the mistletoe. However, in both hosts xylem sap seems to be deviated into the mistletoe without specific control of carbohydrate flux. Differences observed between the seasonal pattern of xylem sap carbohydrate concentrations in Viscum on Populus and Abies may originate from the different time of leaf development of these species. A clear-cut seasonal pattern of soluble carbohydrates was not observed in the leaves of Viscum on both hosts. Still soluble carbohydrates seem to be reallocated from the senescing to the newly developed leaves of Viscum indicating that the seasonal requirement of carbohydrate for growth and development can only completely be met by carbohydrate acquisition from the host and their own photosynthesis.

    Notes: Mixed spruce-beech plantations grown in large open-top chambers (OTC) were used to study consequences of elevated CO2, nitrogen-deposition and soil type on plant internal nitrogen and sulphur cycling of juvenile beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and spruce (Picea abies Karst.) in a competitive situation. Processes of re-cycling as a consequence of protein turnover during leaf senescence in autumn were of further interest. For this purpose, phloem sap was collected in September 1998 and analysed for the composition and concentrations of organic and inorganic nitrogen and sulphur compounds. The phloem exudate of spruce showed higher total soluble non-protein nitrogen (TSNN) concentration on calcareous soil than on acidic soil, independent of the treatment. N-fertilization increased the N-concentration of phloem exudate significantly on both soil types, mainly by an increase of Arg and Gln concentrations. Elevated CO2 slightly increased TSNN on calcareous, but not on acidic soil. The combination of elevated CO2 and augmented N-deposition induced a further increase of TSNN on calcareous soil, but caused a lower N-effect on TSNN on acidic soil. Arg, the main TSNN component in phloem exudate, mediated this effect. Since Arg is considered to be a major nitrogen storage compound, it is concluded that in autumn elevated CO2 and augmented N-deposition, influence storage of N rather than N-supply of spruce. An effect of elevated CO2 and augmented N-deposition on GSH and sulphate concentrations in phloem exudate of spruce was not observed on acidic soil. On calcareous soil augmented N-deposition enhanced, elevated CO2 decreased phloem exudate GSH contents. In combination, elevated CO2 compensated the positive effect of N-deposition. The effects of elevated CO2 and augmented N-deposition on phloem sap N- and S-contents described above were not observed for beech trees. Apparently, elevated CO2 and augmented N-deposition did not affect plants internal S and N cycling of beech grown in spruce-beech plantations.

    Notes: In the present field study with adult trees inhabited by Viscum album, the question was addressed as to whether European mistletoes are able to remove reduced sulphur from the xylem sap of its hosts. For this purpose the reduced sulphur composition and content of the xylem sap of Viscum album and the corresponding hosts Populus × euramericana and Abies alba were analysed. The xylem sap of Viscum was enriched in reduced sulphur compared to the hosts but still reflected the higher reduced sulphur content of Populus compared to Abies. Despite similar xylem sap composition of the hosts with glutathione as the dominating thiol, Viscum on Populus contained predominantly cysteine, Viscum on Abies predominantly glutathione in its xylem sap. These findings suggest selective and different removal of reduced sulphur from these hosts. Still the amount of reduced sulphur removed was too small to result in changes of the concentration of thiols in the xylem sap of the hosts that are statistically significant, probably due to the high variability encountered under field conditions. Despite the differences in the reduced sulphur composition and contents of the xylem sap between Viscum on Populus and Viscum on Abies, total thiol content as well as thiol composition of Viscum leaves on the two hosts were similar throughout the seasons. The seasonal pattern in the thiol composition and contents of Viscum leaves showed high levels in spring and autumn and low levels in summer. The significance of these seasonal changes is discussed.
