[Objective] The aim was to compare the content changes between the non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) and the total nitrogen in various growing seasons, and to explore the response relationship between altitude and the contents. [Method] Taking Quercus aquifolioides scrub which widely distributed in Zheduoshan in the west of Sichuan as the experimental objects, the changes between NSC and the toal nitrogen in various growing seasons at different altitude were studied. [Result] The results showed that the content of NSC in Quercus aquifolioides underground increased with the lift of elevation in the dormancy, but decreased in the early germination, growing period and growth stage. The content of NSC in the ground tissue changed non-linearly with increasing elevation. In addition, the total nitrogen of Quercus aquifolioides organizations was decreasing with increasing elevation in the dormant period, which did not change significantly in the other periods. This result implied that the content of NSC in Quercus aquifolioides underground was more sensitive to temperature. [Conclusion] The experiment laid basis for the exploration of the physical and ecological mechanism of underground plants adaptability to highland environment, their response to global climate changes and adjustment to high altitude ecological system.
