Enhanced adaptability of Sesbania rostrata to Pb/Zn tailings via stem nodulation

Sesbania rostrata is wellknown for its stem nodulation, but the roles of stem nodulation in root nodulation and adaptation of S. rostrata to Pb/Zn-enriched tailings environment has been poorly understood. We investigated the effects of inoculating (with stem nodule treatment) and non-inoculating (without stem nodule treatment) Azorhizobium caulinodans on the growth, root nodulation, and N fixation of S. rostrata grown on three different types of soil substrata: Pb/Zn tailings, garden soil amended tailings, ...     

Enhanced adaptability of Sesbania rostrata to Pb/Zn tailings via stem nodulation

Sesbania rostrata is wellknown for its stem nodulation, but the roles of stem nodulation in root nodulation and adaptation of S. rostrata to Pb/Zn-enriched tailings environment has been poorly understood. We investigated the e ects of inoculating (with stem nodule treatment) and non-inoculating (without stem nodule treatment) Azorhizobium caulinodans on the growth, root nodulation, and N fixation of S. rostrata grown on three di erent types of soil substrata: Pb/Zn tailings, garden soil amended tailings, and garden soil. The results showed that plant height, stem basal diameter, biomass, chlorophyll content, nitrogen content and N-accumulation per plant were 2.3%–4.9%, 2.2%–7.7%, 27.8%–72.2%, 17.1%–23.5%, 12.3%–34.2%, and 43.1%–131.2%, respectively, higher in treatments with stem nodule than those without stem nodule for the same soil substrate. With respect to soil substrata, all measurements had consistently higher values in tailings than in amended tailings and garden soil, indicating that the poorer the soil condition, the greater the contribution of stem nodule. In contrast, the number and fresh weight of root nodules on plants without stem nodule were 6.9–11.6 times and 5.8–29.0 times higher than those with stem nodule, respectively, especially with respect to the plants grew on Pb/Zn tailings. In general, stem nodulation favored plant growth and nitrogen fixation of S. rostrata, but suppressed root nodulation. With the ability of stem and root nodulation, S. rostrata can be used as a pioneer plant species for remediation of Pb/Zn tailings.     

Responses of Sesbania rostrata and S. cannabina to Pb, Zn, Cu and Cd toxicities

Responses of Sesbania rostrata and S. cannabina to Pb, Zn, Cu and Cd toxicities were assessed by a seed-suspending seedbed(SSS) approach. The results showed that the SSS approach was suitable for testing the tolerance of a plant to the stress of toxic metals. The endpoints include seed germination success, straightened radicle and hypocotyl of the seedlings from the seeds. The measurements could be done easily and accurately. It was found that the elongation of radicle was the most sensitive indicator to the stress of heavy metals among the endpoints. When exposure to lower or medium concentrations of Pb, Zn, and Cd, the development of the lateral roots were favorable. Species of S. rostrata was more tolerant than S. cannabina to the heavy metals, especially to Zn and Cd. The ED50 of Pb, Zn, Cu and Cd were 32.90, .5.32, 4.40 and 12.00 μg/ml for S. rostrata,respectively, and they were 30.11, 2.87, 4.0.5 and 4.94 μg/ml respectively for S. cannabina.     

乐昌铅锌尾矿的酸化及重金属溶出的淋溶实验研究

利用淋溶实验，研究了乐昌铅锌尾矿的酸化及其对重金属溶出的影响。结果表明：高硫和中硫尾矿因含很高的有效硫（分别为２０．４％和１５．９％），在尾矿的堆放过程中会发生酸化，发生酸化的时间在第５１周左右，低硫尾矿（有效硫为７．２％）在短期内不会发生酸化。尾矿发生酸化后，将促进其中盐份的溶解，从而使得Ｐｂ、Ｚｎ和Ｃｕ等重金属的溶出增高。本研究可为铅锌尾矿的环境管理提供科学依据     

酸性淋溶对铅锌尾矿金属行为的影响及植物毒性

露天存放的铅锌尾矿受到自身酸化和酸雨的双重影响,从而加剧尾矿对环境的影响。因此,研究尾矿在酸性条件下的重金属行为及其植物毒性,对植物在铅锌尾矿地的自然定居有非常重要的意义。将铅锌尾矿砂装柱,用pH2～7溶液淋溶50天的结果表明,酸度的提高可以显著地增加尾矿砂中重金属（Pb、Zn、Cu和Cd）的溶出。而随着时间的延长,Zn的溶出量明显增高,Pb和Cu的溶出则逐渐降低。在pH值＜3时,Cd的溶出逐渐升高,pH值＞3时,Cd的溶出也呈下降趋势。酸度对重金属溶出的影响由大至小依次为Zn＞Cd＞Cu＞Pb。渗滤液对植物的毒性随着起始淋溶酸度的提高与时间的推移而加剧     

3种工业有机废弃物对铅锌尾矿生物化学性质及植物生长的影响

开展野外田间试验,在铅锌尾矿中添加3种工业有机废物(酒糟、中药渣、蘑菇渣)作为改良剂,从植物生长、营养元素、土壤酶活性、尾矿及植物重金属含量等方面研究其对铅锌尾矿的改良效果.结果表明:①添加酒糟、中药渣、蘑菇渣处理后尾矿中DTPA-Cd、DTPA-Cu、DTPA-Pb和DTPA-Zn含量分别降低了24.2%~27.3%、45.7%~48.3%、18.0%~20.9%和10.1%~14.2%;有机质、铵态氮、有效磷含量分别增加了2.27~2.32倍、12.4~12.8倍和4.04~4.74倍;土壤脱氢酶、β-葡萄糖苷酶、脲酶和磷酸酶活性分别提高了5.51~6.37倍、1.72~1.96倍、6.32~6.62倍和2.35~2.62倍.②添加酒糟、中药渣、蘑菇渣促进了植物种子萌发和种苗生长,植被盖度分别到达了84%、79%和86%;其中,黑麦草的生物量增加了4.2~5.6倍,狗牙根的生物量增加了15.7~17.3倍;黑麦草和狗牙根地上部分重金属含量均显著降低.③植被盖度、生物量与尾矿基质营养元素和土壤酶活性呈极显著正相关,与尾矿重金属有效态含量呈极显著负相关;植物地上部分重金属含量与尾矿基质营养元素、土壤酶活性呈极显著负相关,与尾矿基质重金属有效态含量呈极显著正相关.综合分析表明,可以将酒糟、中药渣、蘑菇渣作为改良剂用于铅锌尾矿废弃地的生态恢复.

两种外生菌根真菌对重金属Zn、Cd和Pb耐性的研究

纯培养条件下研究菌根真菌对重金属耐性的前提是选择合适的培养方式且保持重金属的有效性，比较了液体静置、液体摇床和琼脂固体培养3种方式下Cd对点柄粘盖牛肝菌(Suillus granulatus)生长的影响，筛选后确定液体静置培养是一种比较合适的方法，运用液体静置培养方法，研究了重金属Zn、Cd和Pb对点柄粘盖牛肝菌和卷缘桩菇(Paxillus involutus)生长的影响，并利用EC50值评价真菌对Zn、Cd和Pb的耐性。结果表明卷缘桩菇的CdEC50值低于点柄粘盖牛肝菌，但Zn和Pb的EC50值均高于点柄粘盖牛肝菌，表明卷缘桩菇比点柄粘盖牛肝菌更耐Zn和Ph，对Cd却比较敏感。     

Accumulation of heavy metals in four grasses grown on lead and zinc mine tailings

A field experiment was conducted to compare the growth and metal accumulation of Vetiveria zizanioides, Paspalum notatum, Cynodon dactylon and Imperata cylindraca var. major on the tailings, amended with 10 cm domestic refuse complex NPK fertilizer(Treatment A), 10 cm domestic refuse(Treatment B) and complex NPK fertilizer(Treatment C) respectively, and without any amendment used as control (Treatment D). The results indicated that V. zizanioides was a typical heavy metal excluder, because the concentrations in shoots of the plants were the lowest among the four plants tested. The most of metal accumulated in V. zizanioides distributed in its root, and transportation of metal in this plant from root to shoot was restricted. Therefore, V. zizanioides was more suitable for phytostabilization of toxic mined lands than P. notatum and C. dactylon, which accumulated a relatively high level of metals in their shoots and roots. It was also found that I. cylindraca var. major accumulated lower amounts of Pb, Zn and Cu than C. dactylon and P. notatum, and could also be considered for phytostaliUsaton of tailings. Although the metal(Pb, Zn and Cu) concentrations in shoots and roots of V. zizanioides were the lowest, the total amounts of heavy metals accumulated in shoots of V. zizanioides were the highest among the four tested plants due to the highest dry weight yield of it. The results indicated that V. zizanioides was the best choice among the four species used for phytoremediation (for both phytostabilization and phytoextraction) of metal contaminated soils.
