长期施肥农田黑土微生物量碳、氮季节性变化

研究长期不同施肥处理农田黑土微生物量碳、氮(MBC、MBN)季节性特征,于不同月份采集单施化肥(NPK)、单倍有机肥(M)、双倍有机肥(M2)、单倍有机肥与化肥配施(MNPK)和对照(CK)处理土样。结果表明:与其它处理相比,M2处理MBC、MBN季节性变化较小。MBC季节性变化规律为:4月(春耕前)各处理较高,其它月份较低,CK、NPK、MNPK的最低值出现在5月(出苗期),M和M2的最低值出现在7月(拔节期),8、9月(灌浆期和收获后)各处理略有回升。MBN变化规律为:4月NPK、M、MNPK较低,其它月份较高,4、8月CK较低,其它月份较高。所有月份各处理均值方差分析结果表明:与CK相比,NPK、M、MNPK、M2均能提高MBC和MBN,其中M、MNPK、M2对MBC的提高达到显著水平(p<0.01),M对MBN的提高达到显著水平(p<0.01),其它处理未达到显著水平。另外,长期适量施用有机肥可以提高土壤微生物对有机碳及全氮的利用率。微生物量碳与土壤基本理化指标相关性显著,能够较好地反映出土壤质量变化情况。

Sorption of Cu and Zn by bone charcoal

Bone charcoal is being developed as a treatment for decontaminating polluted water. In particular, its potential to adsorb metal species from contaminated water supplies is being examined. In this study, bone charcoal was used in batch and column experiments designed to investigate the sorption of two cationic metals Cu and Zn. The data from batch experiments fitted the Langmuir isotherm and so theoretical maximum binding capacities could be obtained. These values were compared with experimental values derived from the column experiments. The mechanisms involved in the immobilisation were also investigated.     

北方常见农作物根际土壤中铅、锌的形态转化及其植物有效性

采用盆栽试验结合形态分析技术研究了北方地区常见农作物对污染土壤中铅(Pb)、锌(Zn)的形态转化及其植物有效性的影响。土壤Pb、Zn形态分析结果显示,与非根际土壤相比,多数作物根际可交换态、碳酸盐结合态、有机质结合态Pb比例降低,而铁锰氧化物结合态、残渣态Pb则显著增加;Zn则表现为可交换态比例略呈降低趋势,碳酸盐结合态、铁锰氧化物结合态与有机质结合态升高,残渣态Zn则大幅下降。这提示,作物根际土壤Pb存在由松结合态向紧结合态转化的现象,从而植物有效性降低;而根际土壤Zn的形态变化则与Pb相反,即由紧结合态向松结合态转化,相应地提高了Zn的植物有效性。     

不同状态样品培养下太湖地区黄泥土好气呼吸与CO2产生潜力

土壤呼吸的CO2释放是陆地生态系统快速而活跃的土气交换途径,培养试验常用来讨论土壤的有机碳矿化及其温室气体产生潜力.对太湖地区一个代表性水稻土在水稻收割后采集土壤, 分别进行常规(磨碎土的培养瓶法)和原状土恒温好气培养,测定分析土壤呼吸的CO2释放量,讨论其有机碳矿化与CO2释放潜力.结果表明,该水稻土常规培养CO2呼吸释放速率在CO2-C 12.85 ～ 15.17 mg·kg-1·d-1范围, 而原状土培养CO2呼吸释放速率在CO2-C 2.15 ～ 4.47 mg·kg-1·d-1范围,虽然两者均显著低于文献报道的培养研究结果,但原状土培养下土壤呼吸及CO2产生潜力看起来较大幅度地低于磨碎土常规培养结果,前者与同地区田间监测结果计算的值相当.不但如此,培养中土壤呼吸作用与CO2释放动态格式也发生变化,原状土条件下存在一个较为稳定的低呼吸速率阶段,不同施肥处理下这一阶段的差异十分明显.计算表明,原状土培养下存在微生物潜在可矿化碳的土壤保护作用,这种保护性碳约占土壤有机碳总量的2%左右,较大于Pulleman & Marinissen (2004) 对于草地土壤团聚体有机碳矿化的研究结果.采用磨碎样品的常规培养实验可能会高估水稻土有机碳矿化与CO2释放潜力.     

浦东新区土壤—食物链中的铜锌

本文调查了浦东新区污灌区、吹泥区和一般区三种处理土壤中Ｃｕ、Ｚｎ的水平和垂直分布，Ｃｕ、Ｚｎ分层现象不明显，水平差异较大，但三种关型土壤差异不显著。Ｃｕ在食物链中累积系数铰小，一般小于１．０，而Ｚｎ的累积程度较大，尤其是以人为消费者的食物链中，累积系数最高达到１８。     

Extra-pair paternity in tree swallows: why do females mate with more than one male?

Recent studies of monogamous tree swallows (Tachycineta bicolor) suggest that females may receive some type of genetic benefit from extra-pair fertilizations. In this study we attempted to determine what type of genetic benefits might be gained by females. We compared numerous morphological and behavioral traits (Table 1) of every male nesting on one grid of nest-boxes (n = 23) to determine what male traits were correlated with male success at gaining extra-pair fertilizations. DNA fingerprinting revealed an increase in the level of extra-pair paternity from the previous year (50% of broods contained extra-pair young in 1990 vs. 87% of broods in 1991), but no significant correlates of paternity. We found six extra-pair fathers at seven nests (20 nests had extra-pair young). The traits of these extra-pair males did not differ from those of the males they cuckolded. We discuss several reasons for this lack of difference, but argue that our results are not inconsistent with females choosing extra-pair males to enhance the genotypic quality of their offspring. Despite a complete search of the nest-box grid for extra-pair fathers, we were able to explain the paternity of just 21% (13/63) of all extra-pair young. This suggests that extra-pair fathers were either residents off our study grid or non-territorial floaters. Tree swallows are quite mobile and spend only part of the day at their nest prior to laying. In addition, we rarely see swallows visiting other grids of nest-boxes. Therefore, we suggest that most extra-pair copulations occur at some unknown location, possibly at a feeding or roosting area where females may be able to choose from many more potential extra-pair fathers than at their nest-site.     

The role of root organic acids in the tolerance of Festuca rubra to zinc,lead and cadmium

Abstract

Festuca rubra L. plants are pseudometallophytes colonizing abandoned Pb/Zn mine areas, successfully employed in phytostabilization. To study the contribution of low-molecular weight organic acids to metal tolerance, F. rubra plants were grown for three months in hydroponics with Cd (1.8, 18 and 36 µmol?L^?1), Pb (50, 250 and 500?µmol?L^?1) and Zn (0.3, 3 and 6?mmol?L^?1), separately, and in ternary combination (18?µmol?L^?1 Cd + 250?µmol?L^?1 Pb + 0.3?mmol?L^?1 Zn). The roots retained most of the metals but their distribution from shoot to root was altered when the plants were treated with the ternary combination. The main organic acids in roots were citrate and malate. At the lowest concentrations, the metals caused small reductions in biomass, had no effects on photosynthetic pigments nor on malondialdehyde, but led to increases in root organic acids. At higher concentrations, phytotoxic responses were observed, associated with a decline of citrate and malate in the roots.     

微量元素对红豆杉菌根菌生长的影响

微量元素对植物的生长发育有着十分重要的意义。对太行山野生红豆杉(Taxus chinensis var.mairei)菌根菌菌丝在分别加有硫酸锌、钼酸铵以及硫酸亚铁的PDA培养基中的生长发育状况进行了试验研究。所得数据同PDA对照组进行比较分析后,结果表明:Mo元素对红豆杉菌根菌菌丝的生长发育有很好的促进作用;Fe元素明显地促进红豆杉菌根菌菌丝的生长发育;Zn元素在一定范围内对红豆杉菌根菌菌丝的生长发育有一定的抑制作用。实验结果揭示出红豆杉菌根菌生长发育的一些营养因素。     

长期施肥对红壤性水稻土活性碳的影响

在23年的长期田间定位试验区,研究了不同施肥对红壤性水稻土活性碳的影响。结果表明,在不施肥(CK)、无机肥(NPK)、有机肥(猪粪 紫云英绿肥)(OM)和无机肥与有机肥配施(NPKM)处理中,土壤微生物量碳含量、潜在可矿化碳含量和可溶性有机碳含量均随土层深度的增加而降低;不同施肥处理土壤微生物量碳含量、潜在可矿化碳含量和可溶性有机碳含量从高到低顺序都为:NPKM>OM>NPK>CK,长期施用肥料,特别是施有机肥与无机肥配施能提高土壤微生物量碳、潜在可矿化碳和可溶性有机碳含量,从而保持和提高土壤碳库质量。同施肥处理A层的土壤活性碳占土壤有机碳的比率显著大于P层;同施肥处理同发生层各土壤活性碳占土壤有机碳比率从高到低的顺序为:潜在可矿化碳的比率(R2)>微生物量碳的比率(R1)>可溶性有机碳的比率(R3);同施肥处理同发生层土壤活性碳占土壤有机碳比率R1、R2、R3大小顺序都为:NPKM>OM>NPK>CK。除P层微生物量碳和可溶性有机碳之间外,土壤有机碳总量与各活性碳之间以及各类活性碳之间相关性均达到极显著水平。
