菹草在低浓度含铜尾水净化过程中的毒性研究

将菹草(Potamogeton crispus)种植于不同浓度的含游离态(CuSO4)和螯合态(EDTA-Cu)铜离子模拟尾水中,定期观测菹草在不同浓度、不同形态含铜尾水中的生长状况,并用水下饱和脉冲叶绿素荧光仪测定菹草光合作用PSⅡ有效荧光产量(Fv/Fm)、光化学荧光淬灭系数(qP)和非光化学荧光淬灭系数(qN)等指标,以研究菹草在低浓度含铜尾水净化过程中的生态效应。结果表明,菹草对铜离子有吸附或富集作用,且对CuSO4的吸附或富集能力大于EDTA-Cu。CuSO4对菹草的毒性作用小,且对菹草生长有一定的促进作用;随着铜离子浓度(0.01、0.3、0.5和1.0 mg·L-1)的递增,CuSO4各试验组菹草叶片数增加量分别是对照组的292.5%、390.0%、155.0%和45.0%。而EDTA-Cu在试验浓度范围内对菹草的生长影响较小,毒性作用不明显。随游离态和螯合态铜离子浓度的提高,相对光合电子传递速率(RET)、Fv/Fm、qP和qN变化明显,表明一定浓度的铜离子增强了菹草的光电子传递速率和份额,铜离子对PSⅡ反应中心的毒性作用较小,可以促进其光合作用。

Interspecific competition effects on phosphorus accumulation by Hydrilla verticillata and Vallisneria natans

The competition between submersed plants has been recognized as an important factor influencing the structure of plant communities in shallow lakes. The ability of different species to take up and store nutrients from the surrounding ambience varies, and hence plant community structure might be expected to affect the cycling of nutrients in lake ecosystems. In this study, the uptake of phosphorus by Hydrilla verticillata and Vallisneria natans was studied and compared in monoculture and competitive mixed-culture plantings. Results showed that for both studied species the phosphorus concentrations of different tissues and of whole plants was unaffected by competition. However, the quantity of phosphorus accumulated by whole plants of H. verticillata was significantly higher in mixture culture than in monoculture, while that of V. natans was lower in the mixed culture. The results indicated that H. verticillata has a competitive advantage over V. natans, when the two species are grown in competition, and is able to accumulate a greater quantity of phosphorus.     

Beyond hypoxia：Occurrence and characteristics of black blooms due to the decomposition of the submerged plant Potamogeton crispus in a shallow lake

Organic matter-induced black blooms(hypoxia and an offensive odor) are a serious ecosystem disasters that have occurred in some large eutrophic shallow lakes in China. In this study, we investigated two separate black blooms that were induced by Potamogeton crispus in Lake Taihu, China. The main physical and chemical characteristics, including color- and odor-related substances, of the black blooms were analyzed. The black blooms were characterized by low dissolved oxygen concentration(close to 0 mg/L), low oxidation-reduction potential, and relatively low pH of overlying water. Notably higher Fe2+and∑S2-were found in the black-bloom waters than in waters not affected by black blooms. The black color of the water may be attributable to the high concentration of these elements, as black FeS was considered to be the main substance causing the black color of blooms in freshwater lakes. Volatile organic sulfur compounds, including dimethyl sulfide, dimethyl disulfide, and dimethyl trisulfide, were very abundant in the black-bloom waters. The massive anoxic degradation of dead Potamogeton crispus plants released dimethyl sulfide, dimethyl disulfide, and dimethyl trisulfide, which were the main odor-causing compounds in the black blooms. The black blooms also induced an increase in ammonium nitrogen and soluble reactive phosphorus levels in the overlying waters. This extreme phenomenon not only heavily influenced the original lake ecosystem but also greatly changed the cycling of Fe, S, and nutrients in the water column.
