摘要
The carbon isotope ratios(δ 13C)of modern land plants have been widely studied,and they provide valuable information about modern and past atmospheric,ecological and climatic changes[1].According to their different photosynthetic pathways,land plants are mostly C3 and C4 plants.The δ13C values of C3 plants are mainly within the range of-20‰ to-34‰,with the most frequent values being around-27‰,which are always more negative than the range of-9‰ to-19‰ of C4 plants,with the most frequent values being around-13‰[2].For modern C3 plants,the reported most negative δ13C values are-36‰ to-37‰[3],which are generally observed in tropical rainforest,such as the Amazon[4],highlight-ing the impact of high atmospheric moisture on the δ13C values of C3 plants[1].Thus,the δ13C values of plants in distinctive environ-ments can help elucidate the impact of unusual environmental conditions on these plants.
