The rhizosphere microbiome plays critical roles in plant growth and is an important interface for resource exchange between plants and the soil environment. Crops at various growing stages, especially the seedling stage, have strong shaping effects on the rhizosphere microbial community, and such community reconstruction will positively feed back to the plant growth. In the present study, we analyzed the variations of bacterial and fungal communities in the rhizosphere of four crop species: rice, soybean, maize, and wheat during successive cultivations (three repeats for the seedling stages) using 16S rRNA gene and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) high-throughput sequencing. We found that the relative abundances of specific microorganisms decreased after different cultivation times, e.g., Sphingomonas, Pseudomonas, Rhodanobacter, and Caulobacter, which have been reported as plant-growth beneficial bacteria. The relative abundances of potential plant pathogenic fungi Myrothecium and Ascochyta increased with the successive cultivation times. The co-occurrence network analysis showed that the bacterial and fungal communities under maize were much more stable than those under rice, soybean, and wheat. The present study explored the characteristics of bacteria and fungi in crop seedling rhizosphere and indicated that the characteristics of indigenous soil flora might determine the plant growth status. Further study will focus on the use of the critical microorganisms to control the growth and yield of specific crops.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast was entrapped in alginate for the recovery of copper ions from aqueous solution, in which both yeast and alginate could take metal ions. The Freundlich isotherm had been shown to be successful in describing biosorption and a linear biosorption was assumed when the equilibrium copper ion concentration in the fluid was lower than 1 mg/l. The biosorption isotherm was found to be independent of the immobilized yeast densities ranging from 6 to 17 percent. A mathematical model describing the mass transport along with the biosorption was developed with the main assumptions that the inner diffusion with constant diffusivity was the rate limiting step of the biosorption process and the pore solution locally equilibrated with the adjacent biosorbent (both yeast and alginate). This model has theoretical advantages over the formerly proposed Shrinkage Core Model and Linear Adsorption Model. Effective diffusion coefficients of copper ion in immobilized yeast beads using the model developed were found to be independent of the immobilized yeast densities ranging from 6 to 17 percent. The average result was 2.22×10?5 cm2/s. 相似文献
