苦草与铜绿微囊藻的相互化感作用

在排除细菌作用和营养竞争的实验室条件下,对苦草和铜绿微囊藻进行混合培养和分开培养,探讨了苦草和铜绿微囊藻的相互化感作用.结果表明,苦草的存在对铜绿微囊藻的生长有明显的抑制;铜绿微囊藻对苦草生长的抑制,必须与藻对苦草的遮光作用相结合才能完成.藻的丙二醛(MDA)积累和藻叶绿素a含量降低表明,苦草释放的化感物质可能造成了铜绿微囊藻细胞内活性氧的增多,影响了正常的光合作用,导致藻细胞死亡.铜绿微囊藻则是通过减弱光照和减少苦草叶绿素a含量,导致苦草生物量减少.     

CO2/pH对三种藻生长及光合作用的影响

研究了在不同pH值和不同溶解性无机碳(DIC)浓度下太湖中惠氏微囊藻、四尾栅藻和菱形藻的生长和光合作用特征.研究表明, CO2/pH对3种藻的影响明显不同.惠氏微囊藻生长的最适pH值为8.0～9.0,pH7.0～9.0时具有较高的光合作用速率;四尾栅藻在偏酸性和偏碱性环境水体中均能较好生长,在本实验的pH值范围内均具有较高的光合作用速率;四尾栅藻在偏酸性和偏碱性环境水体中均能较好生长,在本实验的pH值范围内都具有较高的光合作用速率;菱形藻生长的最适pH值为7.0左右,在此pH值下光合作用速率也最高.惠氏微囊藻的K0.5(DIC)略小于四尾栅藻和菱形藻,表明对外源无机碳的亲合力要略大于四尾栅藻和菱形藻;但当DIC浓度达到饱和时,惠氏微囊藻和四尾栅藻的最大光合作用速率要远大于菱形藻.     

枯草芽孢杆菌对铜绿微囊藻抑制效果的研究

为探讨枯草芽孢杆菌(Bacillus subtilis)对铜绿微囊藻(Microcystis aeruginosa)的抑制效果,在实验室条件下,研究了枯草芽孢杆菌不同生长时期(延迟期、对数期、稳定期和衰亡期)无菌滤液对铜绿微囊藻生长的影响、枯草芽孢杆菌抑制铜绿微囊藻生长的作用方式以及无菌滤液影响下铜绿微囊藻丙二醛(MDA)含量、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性和光合色素含量的变化.结果显示:枯草芽孢杆菌对数期、稳定期和衰亡期滤液抑藻效果明显好于延迟期,作用第8d,对铜绿微囊藻的去除率分别达到81.19%、91.41%、91.82%;4个处理组铜绿微囊藻的叶绿素a含量均显著低于对照组.添加稳定期滤液后,铜绿微囊藻MDA含量显著升高,SOD活性先升高后降低;在对光合色素的影响中,类胡萝卜素受到的影响不如叶绿素a显著.结果表明,枯草芽孢杆菌对铜绿微囊藻的抑制效果是通过分泌胞外物质实现的,且分泌物具有很强的热稳定性.推测该胞外分泌物能够破坏光合色素,影响光合作用,抑制藻细胞的生长;同时抑制SOD活性,使细胞膜脂过氧化程度不断加深,进而破坏藻细胞的完整性,表现出对藻很强的抑制效果.     

缺磷及高光照条件下紊动对铜绿微囊藻生长的影响

通过试制隔栅搅拌模拟紊动装置,设置格栅转动频率为0,500,1000,1500Hz（对应紊流能量耗散率范围0～8.93×10^-3m²/s³）,研究高光照与缺P的不利环境条件下紊动对铜绿微囊藻生长的影响.结果发现,在高光照（8000lx）下,微囊藻生长明显受到抑制,静止条件下藻浓度仅为正常光照的47.7%,但紊动可一定程度上减缓高光环境的影响,其中高光照下1000Hz组藻浓度最高,相对静止提高了1.8倍.高光照试验组的叶绿素a含量是正常光照条件1.52~1.78倍,因此高光照并未促进藻细胞的生长分裂,而叶绿素a的大量累积可能是铜绿微囊藻应对高光照不利条件作出的抵御反应.在缺P条件下,藻生物量仅为正常营养条件1/6~1/4,但随紊动强度增加,藻生物量略有增加,而叶绿素较初始浓度增加明显,其中1000Hz组生长情况最好.水体紊动可缓解高光照、缺P等恶劣环境条件对铜绿微囊藻生长的抑制,叶绿素a的累积可能是藻细胞对不利环境条件的响应.     

不同风等级扰动对贫富营养下铜绿微囊藻生长的影响

为了探讨不同营养水平条件下动力扰动对微囊藻生长产生的影响,在实验室中模拟了不同风浪强度,分别测定了铜绿微囊藻生长的速率.结果显示.贫营养下,对藻体有规律地施以一定的扰动有助于藻类的生长,扰动使得藻比增长率从0.1 d-1最大增加至0.3 d-1;约4.0 m/s风力最有利于铜绿微囊藻的生长,弱扰动对藻类生长促进作用不明显,强扰动对藻类生长限制作用更显著.富营养下,各风力等级下的扰动对铜绿微囊藻比增长率和最大现存量的影响均不明显,藻比增长率基本间于0.27～0.29 d-1.结果表明,水体中营养水平相差悬殊时,扰动所引起的营养物质重新分配相对于其他因子对藻生长具有更重要的影响.太湖目前的富营养化状况下,动力扰动对藻类生长的直接影响不大.     

超声波法对微囊藻的去除和抑制作用研究

超声波法可以通过破坏细胞壁达到直接除藻和抑制活体细胞生长的2种作用处理废水中微囊藻。以铜绿微囊藻的3种不同藻株为实验对象,对超声法直接去除微囊藻和超声法抑制微囊藻生长的影响因素分别进行单因素平行实验。采用叶绿素a含量作为活体藻细胞指标,分别对超声法除藻、抑藻的最佳条件进行了分析。结果显示,超声法对铜绿微囊藻不同藻株的去除效果基本一致,选用对数增长期的微囊藻在超声功率为1 200 W、超声时间为7 min时,叶绿素a去除率为82%,对微囊藻的直接去除效果最好。改变超声模式,采用多频次间歇超声模式(超声总能量相同):超声功率为1 200 W、隔1天超声2 min,共超声4次,培养14 d后与对照组相比,最终叶绿素a含量下降了95%,有更佳的微囊藻抑制效果。     

外源一氧化氮对亚心形扁藻的生长效应及光谱研究

对海洋绿藻亚心形扁藻(Platymonas subcordiformis)分别进行了不同一氧化氮(NO)浓度和光照强度的培养实验,并进行了叶绿素a和类胡萝卜素含量测定,及室温吸收光谱和荧光光谱测定.结果表明,不同NO浓度、不同加入方式对亚心形扁藻生长有明显不同的促进或抑制作用,NO对亚心形扁藻生长的影响存在阈值.不同浓度NO在不同光照下对微藻生长的作用是一致的,外源NO可以弥补弱光照对藻生长的限制.NO对亚心形扁藻光合色素含量的影响和对藻密度的影响是一致的.NO对藻细胞中叶绿素复合蛋白组成没有显著影响,但对色素含量及其相对组成会产生一系列影响.NO能使藻细胞激发能的传递效率提高,从而提高光合作用速率,表现为细胞生长加快,藻细胞生物量增加.     

氮磷比对水华蓝藻优势形成的影响

通过批量培养实验研究了不同磷水平下N/P比对铜绿微囊藻(蓝藻)和斜生栅藻(绿藻)生长速率的影响,并在太湖蓝藻水华暴发期间,监测了梅梁湾和湖心区水体叶绿素a浓度和氮磷营养盐结构变化,以探讨N/P比对蓝藻优势形成的影响.结果表明, N/P比对铜绿微囊藻和斜生栅藻生长的影响并不表现在一个确定值上,而与水体氮磷的绝对浓度有关,在0.02mg/L磷浓度下,铜绿微囊藻和斜生栅藻在N/P比为4:1~32:1范围内生长速率均较低(0.067~0.074,0.018~0.022d-1),说明受到营养盐的限制;当磷浓度达到0.20mg/L时, 铜绿微囊藻在N/P比为32:1时生长速率达到最大值(0.240d-1),斜生栅藻在N/P比为64:1时生长速率达到最大值(0.380 d-1);而在磷浓度升高到2.00mg/L时,不同N/P比下铜绿微囊藻和斜生栅藻均达到最大生长速率(0.24~0.25, 0.378~0.381d-1),说明氮磷浓度均比较充足,N/P比对生长速率已经没影响.可见,氮磷浓度比N/P比对两种藻的生长影响更大.与斜生栅藻相比,铜绿微囊藻对氮磷营养的生理需求和最大生长速率均相对较低,属K策略物种,易在低氮磷浓度下形成优势.梅梁湾在水华暴发期间氮浓度一直远低于水华较轻的湖心区,而磷浓度远高于湖心区,进而导致梅梁湾N/P质量比(低于20:1)在水华期间一直低于湖心区(124:1),低N/P比是蓝藻水华暴发导致氮浓度下降,磷浓度升高的结果.     

金鱼藻与铜绿微囊藻共生情况下的化感作用

研究了金鱼藻(Ceratophfllum demersum)和铜绿微囊藻(Microcystis aeruginosa)共生时二者之间的相互作用.通过追踪测定铜绿微囊藻的藻细胞密度、叶绿素a浓度、藻胆蛋白含量、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性以及丙二醛(MDA)含量,研究了金鱼藻对铜绿微囊藻的化感作用机制,以及铜绿微囊藻对金鱼藻生长的胁迫.结果表明,金鱼藻对铜绿微囊藻有明显的抑制作用,作用96 h后藻细胞完全死亡;排除营养和光的竞争影响,认为抑制作用主要是由化感作用引起的.培养过程中,铜绿微囊藻叶绿索a和藻胆蛋白(包括藻蓝蛋白、别藻蓝蛋白和藻红蛋白)都有不同程度的损伤;作用末期,藻蓝蛋白的损伤程度最大,叶绿素a次之.藻细胞SOD活性以及MDA含量均呈先升高后降低的趋势.铜绿微囊藻对金鱼藻也有一定胁迫作用,使其生长量减少,叶绿素a、类胡萝卜素含量降低.     

不同形态氮对洋河水库螺旋鱼腥藻和惠氏微囊藻生长的影响

利用室内培养试验比较研究了硝酸盐氮和氨氮对洋河水库螺旋鱼腥藻和惠氏微囊藻生长的影响. 结果表明:ρ(氨氮)和ρ(硝酸盐氮)均在0.05～10 mg/L内时,螺旋鱼腥藻的生长曲线无显著性差异,氨氮更有利于螺旋鱼腥藻的生长;在0.05～10 mg/L内,ρ(氨氮)和ρ(硝酸盐氮)的升高能明显促进惠氏微囊藻的生长,但高浓度的氨氮可能会抑制其生长. 当ρ(硝酸盐氮) 为0.05 mg/L时,螺旋鱼腥藻比生长速率(0.239 d-1)大于惠氏微囊藻(0.166 d-1); ρ(氨氮)为0.05和0.5 mg/L时,螺旋鱼腥藻的比生长速率分别为(0.266±0.012)和(0.303±0.005)d-1,大于惠氏微囊藻的比生长速率(0.096±0.004)和(0.272±0.008)d-1. 提示在ρ(氨氮)和ρ(硝酸盐氮)较低的培养条件下,螺旋鱼腥藻比生长速率更高,更易成为优势藻种. 洋河水库近2年优势种逐渐从螺旋鱼腥藻转变为惠氏微囊藻,可能是水体中ρ(氮)的变化所致.      

Effects of two sludge application on fractionation and phytotoxicity of zinc and copper in the soil

The potential harm of heavy metals is a primary concern in application of sludge to the agricultural land. A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of two sludges on fractionation of Zn and Cu in soil and their phytotoxicity to pakchoi. The loamy soil was mixed with 0%, 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% (by weight) of digested sewage sludge (SS) and composted sludge (SC). The additions of both sludges caused a significant raise in all fractions, resulting in that exchangeable (EXCH) and organic bound (OM) became predominance of Zn and organic bound Cu occupied the largest portion. There was more available amount of Zn and Cu in SS treatments than SC treatments. During the pot experiment, the concentration of Zn in EXCH, carbonate (CAR) and OM and Cu in EXCH and OM fractions decreased in all treatments, so their bioavailability reduced. Germination rate and plant biomass decreased when the addition rate was high and the best yield appeared in 20% mixtures at the harvest of pakchoi. The two sludges increased tissue contents of Zn and Cu especially in the SS treatments. Zn in pakchoi was not only in relationship to ΔEXCH and ΔCAR forms but also in ΔOM forms in the sludge-soil mixtures. Tissue content of Cu in pakchoi grown on SC-soils could not be predicted by ΔEXCH. These correlation rates between Zn and Cu accumulation in pakchoi and variation of different fractions increased with time, which might indicate that sludges represented stronger impacts on the plant in long-term land application.     

Intraspecific differences in effects of co-contamination of cadmium and

A hydroponic experiment was carried out to study intraspecific differences in the effects of different concentrations of cadmium (Cd)(0-10 mg/L) and arsenate (As(V)) (0-8 mg/L) on the growth parameters and accumulation of Cd and As in six wheat varieties Jing-9428, Duokang-1, Jingdong-11, Jing-411, Jingdong-8 and Zhongmai-8. The endpoints of wheat seedlings, including seed germination,biomass, root length and shoot height, decreased with increasing the Cd and As concentrations. Significant differences in seed germination, biomass, root length, shoot height and the accumulation of Cd and As were observed between the treatments and among the varieties (p ＜ 0.05). The lethal dosage 50% were about 20, 80, 60, 60, 80 and 20 mg As/L for Jing-9428, Duokang-1, Jingdong-11,Jing-411, Jingdong-8 and Zhongmai-8, respectively, and the corresponding values for Cd were about 30, 80, 20, 40, 60 and 10 mg Cd/L, respectively. Among the six varieties, Duokang-1 was found to be the most resistant to Cd and As toxicity, and Zhongmai-8 was the most sensitive to Cd and As co-contamination. The resistance of the six varieties was found dependant on the seedling uptake of Cd and As. Duokang-1 was the most suitable for cultivation in Cd and As co-contaminated soils.     

Toxic effects of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination on nifH gene in soil

Toxic effects of two agrochemicals on nifH gene in agricultural black soil were investigated using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis （DGGE） and sequencing approaches in a microcosm experiment. Changes of soil nifH gene diversity and composition were examined following the application of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination. Acetochlor reduced the nifH gene diversity （both in gene richness and diversity index values） and caused changes in the nifH gene composition. The effects of acetochlor on nifH gene were strengthened as the concentration of acetochlor increased. Cluster analysis of DGGE banding patterns showed that nifH gene composition which had been affected by low concentration of acetochlor （50 mg/kg） recovered firstly. Methamidophos reduced nifH gene richness that except at 4 weeks. The medium concentration of methamidophos （150 mg/kg） caused the most apparent changes in nifH gene diversity at the first week while the high concentration of methamidophos （250 mg/kg） produced prominent effects on nifH gene diversity in the following weeks. Cluster analysis showed that minimal changes of nifH gene composition were found at 1 week and maximal changes at 4 weeks. Toxic effects of acetochlor and methamidophos combination on nifH gene were also apparent. Different nifH genes （bands） responded differently to the impact of agrochemicals： four individual bands were eliminated by the application of the agrochemicals, five bands became predominant by the stimulation of the agrochemicals, and four bands showed strong resistance to the influence of the agrochemicals. Fifteen prominent bands were partially sequenced, yielding 15 different nifH sequences, which were used for phylogenetic reconstructions. All sequences were affiliated with the alpha- and beta-proteobacteria, showing higher similarity to eight different diazotrophic genera.     

EDTA-enhanced phytoremediation of lead contaminated soil by Bidens maximowicziana

Phytoremediation is a potential cleanup technology for the removal of heavy metals from contaminated soils.Bidens maximowicziana is a new Pb hyperaccumulator,which not only has remarkable tolerance to Pb but also extraordinary accumulation capacity for Pb.The maximum Pb concentration was 1509.3 mg/kg in roots and 2164.7 mg/kg in overground tissues.The Pb distribution order in the B. maximowicziana was:leaf>stem>root.The effect of amendments on phytoremediation was also studied.The mobility of soil Pb and the Pb concentrations in plants were both increased by EDTA application.Compared with CK(control check),EDTA application promoted translocation of Pb to overground parts of the plant.The Pb concentrations in overground parts of plants was increased from 24.23-680.56 mg/kg to 29.07-1905.57 mg/kg.This research demonstrated that B.maximowicziana appeared to be suitable for phytoremediation of Pb contaminated soil,especially,combination with EDTA.     

Distribution and ecological effect of mercury in Laogang landfill, Shanghai, China

Laogang landfill near Shanghai is the largest landfill in China, and receives about 10000 t of daily garbage per day, Samples of topsoil and plants were analyzed to evaluate mercury pollution from the landfill. For topsoil samples, there were significant correlations among total mercury （HgT）, combinative mercury （Hgc） and gaseous mercury （HgG）, and content of total organic carbon （TOC）, but, no significantly relationship was found between Hg content and filling time. Hg content changes in vertical profiles with time showed that the average Hgv of profiles 1992, 1996, and 2000 was similar, but their average HgG was quite different. HgT was significantly correlated with Hgc in profile 1992 and 2000, and Hgv was significantly correlated with Hg6 in profile 1996. HgG/Hgv ratio in profile samples decreased in the order of （HgG,/HgT）1992〉（HgG/HgT）1996〉〉（HgG/HgT）2000. A simple outline of Hg release in landfill could be drawn： with increasing of filling time, degradation undergoes different biodegradation, accordingly, gaseous mercury goes through small, more, and small proportion to total mercury. Distribution of Hg in plants was inhomogeneous, following the order of leaf〉root〉stem. The highest value of leaf may be associated with higher atmospheric Hg from landfill. Ligneous plants （e.g. Phyllostachys glanca, Prunus salicina and Ligustrum lucidum） are capable of enriching more Hg than herbaceous plants.     

Arsenic uptake by arbuscular mycorrhizal maize （Zea mays L.） grown in an arsenic-contaminated soil with added phosphorus

The effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus (Glomus mosseae) and phosphorus (P) addition (100 mg/kg soil) on arsenic (As) uptake by maize plants (Zea mays L.) from an As-contaminated soil were examined in a glasshouse experiment.Non-mycorrhizal and zero-P addition controls were included.Plant biomass and concentrations and uptake of As,P,and other nutrients,AM colonization,root lengths,and hyphal length densities were determined.The results indicated that addition of P significantly inhibited root colonization and development of extraradical mycelium.Root length and dry weight both increased markedly with mycorrhizal colonization under the zero-P treatments,but shoot and root biomass of AM plants was depressed by P application.AM fungal inoculation decreased shoot As concentrations when no P was added,and shoot and root As concentrations of AM plants increased 2.6 and 1.4 times with P addition,respectively.Shoot and root uptake of P,Mn,Cu,and Zn increased,but shoot Fe uptake decreased by 44.6%,with inoculation, when P was added.P addition reduced shoot P,Fe,Mn,Cu,and Zn uptake of AM plants,but increased root Fe and Mn uptake of the nonmycorrhizal ones.AM colonization therefore appeared to enhance plant tolerance to As in low P soil,and have some potential for the phytostabilization of As-contaminated soil,however,P application may introduce additional environmental risk by increasing soil As mobility.     

Enzymatic oxidation of aqueous pentachlorophenol

The influence of the nonionic surfactant Tween 80 on pentachlorophenol （PCP） oxidation catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase was studied. The surfactant was tested at concentrations below and above its critical micelle concentration （CMC）. Enhancement of PCP removal was observed at sub-CMCs. The presence of Tween 80 in the reaction mixture reduced enzyme inactivation which occurred through a combination of free radical attack and sorption by precipitated products. A simple first-order model was able to simulate time profiles for enzyme inactivation in the presence or absence of Tween 80. At supra-CMCs, the surfactant caused noticeable reductions in PCP removal, presumably through micelle partitioning of PCP which precluded the hydrophobic PCP molecule from interacting with the enzyme.     

Decomposition of alachlor by ozonation and its mechanism

Decomposition and corresponding mechanism of alachlor, an endocrine disruptor in water by ozonation were investigated. Results showed that alachlor could not be completely mineralized by ozone alone. Many intermediates and final products were formed during the process, including aromatic compounds, aliphatic carboxylic acids, and inorganic ions. In evoluting these products, some of them with weak polarity were qualitatively identified by GC-MS. The information of inorganic ions suggested that the dechlorination was the first and the fastest step in the ozonation of alachlor.

以三峡大学的校园河道求索溪为研究对象,利用综合水质标识指数法确定求索溪水质类别,分析其水质时空变化规律,并利用对应分析法得出求索溪中不同监测点的主要污染因子.研究结果表明:求索溪整体的综合水质标识指数为7.423,整体水质为劣V类(地表水环境质量标准GB 3838-2002)且黑臭.从时间变化来看,求索溪4月份的水质最差,5月份次之,4、5月份所有监测点的水质都劣于V类且黑臭;8月份水质最好,水质为Ⅳ类;从空间分布来看,8个监测点综合水质标识指数均超过6.0,水质为劣V类,其中6号监测点的水质相对最好,监测点3号的水质相对最差;对应分析法得出求索溪的整体水体污染程度受总氮因子的影响最大,其次为总磷.该研究拟为求索溪及类似校园河道的水环境治理研究提供基础依据和参考.     

Potential of plant polyphenol oxidases in the decolorization and removal of textile and non-textile dyes

In this study an effort has been made to use plant polyphenol oxidases; potato （Solanum tuberosum） and brinjal （Solanum melongena）, for the treatment of various important dyes used in textile and other industries. The ammonium sulphate fractionated enzyme preparations were used to treat a number of dyes under various experimental conditions. Majority of the treated dyes were maximally decolorized at pH 3.0. Some of the dyes were quickly decolorized whereas others were marginally decolorized. The initial first hour was sufficient for the maximum decolorization of dyes. The rate of decolorization was quite slow on long treatment of dyes. Enhancement in the dye decolorization was noticed on increasing the concentration of enzymes. The complex mixtures of dyes were treated with both preparations of polyphenol oxidases in the buffers of varying pH values. Potato polyphenol oxidase was significantly more effective in decolorizing the dyes to higher extent as compared to the enzyme obtained from brinjal polyphenol oxidase. Decolorization of dyes and their mixtures, followed by the formation of an insoluble precipitate, which could be easily removed simply by centrifugation.
