To find if ornamental plants are applicable to the remediation of metal-polluted areas, the tolerance of chrysanthemum plants (Chysanthemum maximum) var. Shasta to different metals under hydroponic conditions was studied. Their responses as influenced by the mycorrhizal fungus Glomus mosseae (Nicol. & Gerd.) Gerdemann & Trappe BEG25 on substrates containing mine residues were also investigated. Our results showed that chrysanthemum is a metal-tolerant plant under hydroponic conditions, plants behaving as Pb-excluders, whereas Cd, Cu and Ni were accumulated in roots. Low accumulation in flowers was observed for Cd and Cu but it was concentration-dependent. Ni and Pb were not translocated to flowers. Shoot biomass was not significantly affected by the different rates of mine residue addition for both mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants. Mycorrhizal plants accumulated less Pb and Cu in both shoots and roots than non-mycorrhizal plants. Chysanthemum could be a prospective plant for revegetation of tailings and the use of inoculation may decrease plant metal accumulation in polluted soils. 相似文献

A greenhouse study was conducted to evaluate the potential use of olive-cake ash as a soil amendment, using pepper (Capsicum annuum, L. cv Italian sweet). Three soils of different pH (acidic, neutral and calcareous) were used. Treatments included a control (no fertilizer application), NPK fertilizer, and two ash-application rates that provided a complete dose (equivalent to the K2O amount in the fertilizer) and a half dose (equivalent to half the K2O amount in the fertilizer), respectively. The ash was effective in raising soil pH. Ash treatments increased the pepper (stems and leaves) dry matter yield over control; although these increases were lower than treatment including NPK. Application of ash significantly increased leaf P concentration and AB-DTPA extractable P in soil, especially in the acidic and neutral soils. Leaf K concentrations and readily and slowly available K forms in soils were affected positively by the addition of the ash. These results demonstrate that ash from the combustion of wet olive cake can be used as a beneficial organic soil amendment. 相似文献

Background, aim, and scope In this work, the potential for using olive-mill solid waste as an organic amendment for biochemical and biological restoration
of a trichloroethylene-contaminated soil, which has previously been stabilized through vermicomposting processes, has been
explored.
Materials and methods Trichloroethylene-contaminated water was pumped into soil columns with a layer of vermicompost at 10-cm depth (biobarrier
system). The impacts of the trichloroethylene on the microbial community were evaluated by determining: (1) the overall microbial
activity (estimated as dehydrogenase activity) and enzyme activities related to the main nutrient cycles (β-glucosidase, o-diphenoloxidase, phosphatase, urease, and arylsulphatase activities). In addition, isoelectric focusing of the soil extracellular
humic-β-glucosidase complexes was performed to study the enzymatically active humic matter related to the soil carbon cycle.
(2) The soil bacterial diversity and the molecular mechanisms for the bacterial resistance to organic solvents were also determined.
For this, polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) was used to detect changes in bacterial
community structure and PCR-single-strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) was developed and optimised for detection and
discrimination of the resistance-nodulation-division (RND) genes amplified from the contaminated soils.
Results Vermicompost reduced, with respect to the unamended soil, about 30% of the trichloroethylene leaching during the first month
of the experiment. Trichloroethylene had a marked negative effect on soil dehydrogenase, β-glucosidase, urease, phosphatase,
and arylsulphatase activities. Nevertheless, the vermicompost tended to avoid this toxic effect. Vermicompost also displays
stable humic-β-glucosidase complexes that increased the extracellular activity related to C-cycle in the contaminated soils.
The isoelectric focusing technique showed a more biochemically active humic matter in the soil sampled under the vermicompost.
The behaviour of the three main phyla of bacteria isolated from the DGGE bands was quite different. Bands corresponding to
Actinobacteria disappeared, whereas those affiliated with Proteobacteria remained after the trichloroethylene contamination. The disappeared Actinobacteria became visible in the soil amended with the vermicompost. Bands corresponding to Bacteriodetes appeared only in columns of contaminated soils. In this study, six types of RND proteins were detected by PCR-SSCP in the
natural soil, three in the trichloroethylene-contaminated soil and 7/5 in trichloroethylene-contaminated soil above/below
the vermicompost in the biobarrier columns. Trichloroethylene tended to reduce or eliminate all the clones detected in the
uncontaminated soil, whereas new efflux pumps appeared in the biobarrier columns.
Discussion Although enzymes incorporated into the humic substances of vermicomposted olive wastes are quite stable, trichloroethylene
also inhibited the background levels of the soil extracellular β-glucosidase activity in the amended soils. The decrease was
less severe in the biobarrier system, but in any case, no relation was found between the levels of trichloroethylene in soil
and extracellular β-glucosidase activity, or between the latter and the quantity of humic carbon in soils. The isoelectric
focusing technique was carried out in the humic fraction to determine whether the loss of activity occurred in overall extracellular
β-glucosidase or in that linked to stable humic substances (humic–enzyme complexes). The contaminated soils showed the lower
enzyme activities, whereas contaminated and amended soils presented greater quantity of focalised (and therefore stable) humic
carbon and spectra heterogeneity: very different bands with higher enzyme activities. No clear relationship between trichloroethylene
concentration in soil and diversity of the bacterial population was noted. Similar patterns could be found when the community
structures of bacteria and microbial activity were considered. Since the use of the dehydrogenase assay has been recognised
as a useful indicator of the overall measure of the intensity of microbial metabolism, these results could be attributed to
PCR-DGGE methodology, since the method reveals the presence of dominant populations regardless of their metabolic state. Trichloroethylene
maintained or even increased the number of clones with the DNA encoding for RND proteins, except for the contaminated soil
located above the vermicompost. However, the main effect of trichloroethylene was to modify the structure of the community
in contaminated soils, considering the type of efflux pumps encoded by the DNA extracted from soil bacteria.
Conclusions Trichloroethylene inhibited specific functions in soil and had a clear influence on the structure of the autochthonous bacterial
community. The organic matter released by the vermicomposted olive waste tended to avoid the toxic effect of the contaminant.
Trichloroethylene also inhibited the background levels of the soil extracellular β-glucosidase activity, even when vermicompost
was present. In this case, the effect of the vermicompost was to provide and/or to stimulate the humic-β-glucosidase complexes
located in the soil humic fraction >104, increasing the resistance of the enzyme to the inhibition. The bacterial community from the soil presented significantly
different mechanisms to resistance to solvents (RND proteins) under trichloroethylene conditions. The effect of the vermicompost
was to induce these mechanisms in the autochthonous bacterial community and/or incorporated new bacterial species, able to
grow in a trichloroethylene-contaminated ambient. Coupled biochemical and molecular methodologies are therefore helpful approaches
in assessing the effect of an organic amendment on the biochemical and biological restoration of a trichloroethylene-contaminated
soil.
Recommendations and perspectives Since the main biochemical and biological effects of the organic amendment on the contaminated soil seem to be the incorporation
of biochemically active humic matter, as well as new bacterial species able to grow in a trichloroethylene-contaminated ambient,
isoelectric focusing and PCR-SSCP methodologies should be considered as parts of an integrated approach to determine the success
of a restoration scheme. 相似文献

This article analyzes the relationship between the configuration and spatial reorganization of land-use and land-cover in the Pujal-Coy project area, Huasteca Potosina region, eastern San Luis Potosí, Mexico, as well as the relationship between these changes and the environmental conditions prevailing in the area. Land-use and land-cover changes were determined through the analysis and interpretation of satellite images from different dates. The changes identified in the different study periods were correlated with the prevailing physical factors. The results show that the spatial configuration of farming activities, initially induced by the implementation of a regional development project, is highly correlated to the presence of limiting factors such as soil type, slope, and climate. Particularly, the former represents the element that has led to the establishment of the current distribution pattern of farming activities. 相似文献

The present work evaluates the possible bioconversion of wet olive cake by low-cost biostabilization (vermicomposting process). Wet olive cake fresh (WOC), precomposted (WOCP), or mixed with biosolids (WOCB), were vermicomposted for 6 months to obtain organic amendments for agricultural and remediation purposes. The results showed initial differences depending on previous treatment. WOCP was initially more stable, presented a low C:N ratio, and showed more dehydrogenase and urease activity. By contrast, there was no dehydrogenase activity initially in WOC and WOCB, due to the presence of some different types of polyphenols. Finally, the end product showed relatively higher amounts of total nitrogen and humic acid and met the standard of quality for composts and vermicomposts for use both in conventional and organic agriculture and soil-restoration programs. 相似文献
