Phytotoxicity of fuel to crop plants: influence of soil properties,fuel type,and plant tolerance

The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of fuel-contaminated soils on the germination, survival, and early growth of six crop plants, viz. Brassica oleracea, Trifolium repens, Lactuca sativa, Avena sativa, Pisum sativum, and Zea mays, grown on Cambisol A and B horizons contaminated with gasoline and diesel (0%, 1.25%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10%, w/w). Fuel toxicity was more evident in the B horizon than in the A horizon, and diesel was more toxic than gasoline, probably due to the higher evaporation rate of the latter. Fuels affected the germination and survival of small-seeded plants to a higher extent, reflecting the importance of the seed coat and nutrient reserves for successful plant development in fuel-contaminated soils. In general, root growth was more strongly affected than shoot growth, and plant biomass was more strongly affected than elongation, leading to a less plant branching in the presence of fuel. The findings of this study can be useful for selecting the least fuel-tolerant species as soil contamination bioindicator and for determining the risks of fuel contamination. Due to the low residence time of gasoline components in soil, this phytotoxicity test resulted in an unsuitable bioassay to assess gasoline toxicity.     

土壤铜植物毒害的不同评价终点和室内外测定差别研究

本论文对山东陵县、湖南祁阳和浙江嘉兴3种性质差异较大的土壤上进行的室内外的土壤外源铜(Cu)的植物毒性试验结果进行了比较。结果发现3种室内评价终点(大麦根长、西红柿和小白菜苗期生物量)和田间植物(玉米、小麦、水稻和油菜产量)对土壤中Cu毒性的敏感性存在较大的差异。大麦根伸长和小白菜生物量法高估了土壤中Cu对田间小麦、玉米和水稻产量的毒害,而室内西红柿生物量法则低估了土壤中Cu对田间小麦、玉米和水稻产量的毒害。小白菜和田间油菜的敏感性接近,可以用室内小白菜苗期生物量作为土壤中Cu对田间油菜产量毒性评价的植物。当采用相同植物比较时,陵县小麦、祁阳玉米和嘉兴油菜的室内苗期值可以作为土壤Cu对相同田间植物产量的毒害作用(EC_(10))的评价指标。但是,室内苗期毒害指标会低估Cu对田间祁阳小麦和高估嘉兴水稻的毒害作用,说明土壤Cu植物毒害室内外测定的差别受土壤和植物的影响。     

Persistence of oxyfluorfen in soil and detection of its residues in rice crop

Oxyfluorfen is a post-emergence herbicide used for control of annual and perennial broad-leaf weeds and sedges in rice. There is increasing concern about persistence of pesticide residues in soils, agricultural products and sub-sequent contamination of ground water through runoff, leaching and drift. Thus, persistence of oxyfluorfen was evaluated under field conditions in a rice cropping system. Oxyfluorfen was sprayed at 240 and 500 g ai ha^?1 application rates to the rice crop as post-emergence herbicide. Paddy grains, straw and soil samples were collected at harvest and analyzed for oxyfluorfen residues by HPLC. Straw samples contained 0.01 and 0.03 µg g^?1 oxyfluorfen residues at 240 and 500 g ha^?1 concentrations, respectively. In the soil, 0.028 and 0.03 µg g^?1 of oxyfluorfen residues were detected when applied at 240 and 500 g ai ha^?1, respectively. However, in rice grains, 0.018 and 0.106 µg g^?1 of oxyfluorfen residues were found in 240 and 500 g ai ha^?1 treated plots. In light of the potential adverse effects of oxyfluorfen, it is important to determine herbicide levels in these crops.     

纳米银的植物毒性研究进展

纳米银因其具备良好的催化、超导性能及杀菌消毒活性,广泛应用于食品加工业及医药等领域,是目前市场上最为常见的金属纳米材料。纳米银的大量生产和应用大大增加了其向环境释放的机会,同时也增加了其对环境及人类健康的潜在风险。植物是生态系统中重要组成部分,纳米银可通过植物积累进入食物链,因此对纳米银的植物毒理学研究尤为重要。纳米银的植物毒性与其被植物体吸收、迁移及转化有关。它可影响植物种子的萌发、苗期的生理生化过程和细胞结构等营养生长,也影响植物的开花、结实等生殖过程,并影响DNA的稳定性。但目前纳米银的毒性是否由银离子引起尚未确定。     

基于植物重金属毒性的陆地生物配体模型(t-BLM)研究进展

陆地生物配体模型(t-BLM)是生物配体模型(BLM)理论在陆地生态系统中的应用,目的是通过量化土壤重金属形态、土壤基本性质以及生态毒理剂量-效应三者之间的关系,评价重金属对陆生生物的毒性。BLM已经成功地预测重金属对水生生物的毒性,但t-BLM的发展相对较为缓慢。基于植物重金属毒性综述了t-BLM近年来国内外的研究进展,介绍了t-BLM的原理、基于t-BLM的重金属(Cu、Ni、Zn、Cd等)的植物毒性及其影响因素,并且提出基于植物重金属毒性的t-BLM研究面临的主要挑战。

Kinetic,equilibrium and thermodynamic studies for the sorption of metribuzin from aqueous solution using banana peels,an agro-based biomass

Banana peels were employed for the removal of metribuzin from aqueous solution. Sorption in the batch mode was optimized regarding pH, contact time, sorbent dose, initial pesticide concentrations, and temperature. The sorption data were fitted to pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, intraparticle diffusion, Elovich, and liquid film diffusion model, the pseudo-second-order exhibiting best fit (R² = 0.9803). Of the four most common sorption isotherm models (Langmuir, Freundlich, Tempkin, and Dubinin–Radushkevich), the data followed the Langmuir isotherm with highest correlation. The maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 167 mg g^?1. Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, and entropy showed that the sorption was exothermic and spontaneous.     

石墨烯对高等植物幼苗的毒性及机理探究

随着石墨烯产品的广泛应用和潜在的环境释放,其对生态环境的影响已引起广泛关注。为探讨石墨烯对高等植物生长的影响,探究了其对黄瓜幼苗和玉米幼苗生长的影响及其致毒机理。结果表明,水培条件下,不同浓度的石墨烯(10、50、100、500、1 000和2 000 mg·L~(-1))处理植物幼苗15 d后,对植物幼苗的生长具有抑制作用。且随着处理时间和石墨烯浓度的增加,植物幼苗生长的所有指标,包括根/地上部鲜重和干重、根长、根尖数、株高和叶面积均相应降低。另外,黄瓜幼苗比玉米幼苗对石墨烯更加的敏感。进一步研究发现,石墨烯与黄瓜幼苗根部直接接触导致的物理损伤、氧化损伤,以及营养耗竭是其致毒机理。而石墨烯对玉米幼苗的致毒机理包括物理损伤和营养耗竭。本研究为石墨烯的环境风险评价提供了基础数据。     

水体阿特拉津残留对千屈菜的毒性效应

为向水体污染的植物修复技术提供依据,采用营养液水培法研究5个阿特拉津浓度(1、2、4、8和16 mg L-1)下千屈菜鲜重增量、叶片相对含水量(RWC)、丙二醛(MDA)含量、过氧化物酶(POD)活性、根系活力和叶绿素含量等的变化差异.结果表明,阿特拉津胁迫下,千屈菜在实验浓度范围内均可存活和生长;但鲜重增量、RWC、叶绿素含量均有不同程度的下降,根系活力和POD活性降低,同时MDA含量上升,膜脂过氧化程度加剧.阿特拉津浓度越高,其对千屈菜的毒性越高.1 mg L-1处理下,除POD活性外植物其他生长和生理指标均与空白对照无显著差异;但16 mgL-1处理下,鲜重增量、MDA含量和POD活性则显著低于正常水平.由于阿特拉津的降解,这种不良影响随处理时间的延长而减弱.千屈菜对低浓度阿特拉津(≤1 mg L-1)具有较高耐受性.     

阿维菌素在棉花和土壤中的消解规律研究

在济南和合肥开展了阿维菌素在棉花和土壤中残留田间试验,采用超高效液相色谱-质谱联用分析方法,研究了阿维菌素在棉花和土壤中的消解动态和最终残留。试验结果表明：阿维菌素在添加浓度水平为2～50μg·kg-1,平均回收率为78.2%～98.0%,相对标准偏差（RSD）为2.6%～6.4%;阿维菌素在棉叶和土壤中的消解动态符合一级动力学方程,其在棉叶中的半衰期为0.7～0.8 d,在土壤中的半衰期为0.9～1.4 d;阿维菌素在棉籽和土壤中的最终残留量均为未检出。建议按照按推荐剂量16.2～24.3 g·hm-2施药,施药1次,其在棉籽中的残留是安全的。

涕灭威在土壤中的降解特性

用实验室模拟培养方法研究了土壤中涕灭威及其代谢物在不同条件下的降解规律，探讨了影响降解的主要因素。结果表明，温度和土壤微生物活性是影响降解的重要因素，温度升高、有机质含量增加均大大加快涕灭威残留物降解。２５℃时，涕灭威在不同类型表层土壤中Ｔ＿（０．５）为３～８ｄ，其残留物总量的Ｔ＿（０．５）为３０～６５ｄ．在温度低、徽生物活性小的深层土壤中涕灭威Ｔ＿（０．５）为３４～１２０ｄ，残留物总量的Ｔ＿（０．５）为１５９～６８６ｄ，其中亚矾较难降解。     

生物炭早期植物毒性评估培养方法研究

为更加科学地评估生物炭潜在植物毒性,采用生物炭(B)、生物炭+土壤(B+S)、生物炭水浸提液+土壤(AE+S)、生物炭+石英砂(B+Q)、生物炭水浸提液+石英砂(AE+Q)5种不同的培养方法进行早期植物毒性效应实验。比较分析不同培养方法中西红柿种子发芽率、根长、芽长对生物炭的响应。结果表明:在5种培养方法中,随生物炭剂量增加,西红柿种子发芽率、根长、芽长呈现先增后降的变化趋势。虽在低剂量生物炭处理下(10.0 g·kg~(-1)),种子萌发表现出促进作用。但随剂量增加,除B+S和AE+S外,均表现出一定的抑制作用,且当剂量为160.0 g·kg~(-1)时,抑制作用达到最大。对比有土和无土培养方法中种子萌发情况发现,在高剂量下,无土培养方法中种子发芽率,根、芽生长所受抑制作用显著高于有土培养方法。无土方法中,尤其AE+Q方法中,高剂量生物炭对种子发芽率、根长、芽长表现出最大的抑制作用,其中发芽率抑制率为91.1%,根长抑制率为77.7%,芽长抑制率为93.7%。综合比较分析,生物炭水浸提液+石英砂(AE+Q)的培养方法干扰因子少,可提高毒性响应灵敏度。因此,在生物炭早期植物毒性效应评估中,该法可作为推荐的培养方法。     

土壤中铜和镍的植物毒性预测模型的种间外推验证

在基于物种敏感性分布法推导土壤金属生态阈值过程中,利用毒性预测模型对来源于不同土壤的毒理学数据进行归一化处理可消除土壤性质差异的影响,但目前建立的毒性预测模型仅限于少数物种。本研究通过比较土壤中小白菜、西红柿和大麦的铜和镍的毒性预测模型应用于其他高等植物的预测效果,以及归一化前后各物种毒性阈值的种内变异程度,考察了土壤中铜和镍的植物毒性预测模型种间外推的可行性和适用范围,解决了铜和镍土壤生态阈值导出过程中的方法学问题。土壤中镍对小白菜的毒性预测模型能较好地预测芥菜和青椒的镍毒性阈值,利用该模型对芥菜和青椒在不同土壤中的镍毒性阈值进行归一化后亦能显著降低其种内变异,其种内变异系数分别从1.18和1.25降至0.31和0.06;但将镍对小白菜、西红柿和大麦的毒性预测模型应用于莴笋和莴苣的毒性阈值预测时,在pH<6.0的酸性土壤中其预测值均小于实测值,其实测值与预测值的比值在3.2到6.8之间。对小麦、黄瓜和青椒的铜毒性阈值而言,小白菜模型预测效果优于西红柿和大麦模型。利用西红柿模型归一化黄瓜铜毒性阈值,其毒性阈值的种内变异系数从0.83降至0.14。大麦的铜毒性预测模型能较准确地预测水稻、洋葱、芥菜、包菜和萝卜的毒性阈值,且这5个物种的铜毒性阈值经大麦模型归一化后其种内变异均显著降低。本研究结果可为土壤中铜和镍的植物毒性预测模型的种间外推提供科学依据。     

Behaviour of pendimethalin and oxyfluorfen in peanut field soil: effects on soil biological and biochemical activities

A field experiment was conducted to study the dissipation kinetics of herbicides pendimethalin and oxyfluorfen in black soil of peanut field at half recommended rate (HRE), recommended rate and double recommended rate as well as to assess their effects on soil microbial parameters and enzymatic activities. In addition, their role in the transformations and availability of some plant nutrients like nitrogen transformation (through ammonification and nitrification processes) and availability of phosphorous were also studied. Incorporation of these herbicides was found to stimulate the activity of soil microbial biomass carbon, fluorescein diacetate hydrolysing activity, alkaline phosphatase and ammonification rates, while dehydrogenase activity, acid phosphatase, nitrification rate and available phosphorous was adversely affected. However, urease remains almost unchanged except for little stimulation at later stages. Dissipation of pendimethalin and oxy?uorfen followed first-order reaction kinetics with half-life (T_1/2) of 13.7–20.1 and 21.5–27.4 days, respectively. Residues of both herbicides persisted up to 60 days in the soil at all the doses except 45 days for pendimethalin at HRE.     

镉对不同基因型水稻生长毒害影响的比较研究

利用水培分期添加镉试验，研究了杂交水稻和常规水稻在不同生育时期对环境镉毒害的反应。结果表明，在水稻幼穗分化之前，镉主要降低光合生产力，影响植株生长；幼穗分化至抽穗期，主要抑制生殖器官分化，造成颖花败育；抽穗期之后，镉主要干扰体内营养物质的迁移和再分配。就对产量影响而言，幼穗分化至抽穗期是水稻对镉反应最敏感时期，杂交稻比常规稻对镉污染毒害敏感。     

Bioactivity,adsorption and persistence of pretilachlor in paddy field soils

The effects of environmental factors on bioactivity, adsorption and persistence of pretilachlor were studied in the laboratory and greenhouse using cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) as the bioassay species. The three soils studied viz. Bernam, Selangor and Sabrang series were chosen for their different characteristics. The half‐life of pretilachlor decreased from 10.24 to 4.90 days as temperature increased from 25°C to 35°C in the Selangor Series soil and from 10.86 to 7.63 days in the Bernam Series soil at 60% field capacity. At the same moisture level, an increase of temperature from 25°C to 35°C also reduced the half‐life of pretilachlor in Sabrang soil from 8.87 to 2.59 days. The half‐life of pretilachlor also decreased with increasing moisture levels in Selangor and Sabrang series but not in Bernam series soils. The greatest adsorption of pretilachlor was observed in Bernam series, followed by Selangor and Sabrang series. No phytotoxic residue of pretilachlor was detected in the supernatant after 10 h incubation. Since the residue was strongly adsorbed in Bernam series, its biological activity was less than in the other soils studied.     

诺氟沙星对芽期玉米的毒性和氧化损伤研究

畜禽养殖废弃物的农田处置,使大量抗生素进入环境,从而对环境生物产生潜在危害.为了研究诺氟沙星(norfloxacin,Nor)对玉米发芽和幼苗生长的影响,采用水培发芽实验,测定了不同浓度下,诺氟沙星对玉米种子的发芽率和玉米幼苗对诺氟沙星的吸收与传输的影响;另外还研究了诺氟沙星对玉米幼苗生物量、自由基水平、丙二醛(MDA)含量、抗氧化酶活性的影响.结果显示,诺氟沙星能被玉米根吸收并传输到地上部分.0.5mg·L-1～50mg·L-1的诺氟沙星暴露均不影响玉米的发芽率.当诺氟沙星浓度大于1mg·L-1时,幼苗的生长受到抑制,其敏感指标依次为根重>根长>芽长>芽重.诺氟沙星暴露使玉米根、芽中MDA含量明显增加,玉米根中谷胱甘肽硫转移酶(GST),过氧化物酶(POD),超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)等抗氧化酶的活度有显著改变,这表明诺氟沙星暴露能够引起玉米体内的氧化损伤.用电子自旋共振结合二级自由基自旋捕获技术测定了玉米根中自由基水平,发现诺氟沙星能够引起玉米根中大量羟基自由基的产生,为诺氟沙星引起玉米幼苗的氧化损伤提供了直接的证据.     

Effect of pH on the fate of fenazaquin in soil and water under laboratory-simulated condition

The persistence of fenazaquin (4-t-butylphenylethyl quinazolin-4-yl ether) was studied in three different soils, namely, Gangetic alluvial (pH 6.9), laterite (pH 5.3), and terai (pH 5.1) soil and in water at three different pH values (4.0, 7.0, and 9.2) under laboratory-simulated condition and samples were analyzed upto 60 days at regular intervals. Fenazaquin was applied at 5 and 10 µg g^?1 for each soil and at 0.2 and 0.4 µg mL^?1 to each water sample. Dissipation of fenazaquin in soil and water followed first-order kinetics irrespective of any treatments. The half-life of fenazaquin was found in the range of 47–64 days in soils and 3.49–37.6 days in water irrespective of dose. The persistence of fenazaquin in soil significantly increased in the order of Gangetic alluvial soil (pH 6.9) > laterite soil (pH 5.3) > terai soil (pH 5.1), whereas in water the trend of persistence was pH 9.2 ≥ pH 7.0 > pH 4.0. The dissipation of fenazaquin in soil and water was found to be dependent on pH irrespective of doses.
