兰科植物菌根真菌对种子萌发苗木生长的影响研究

兰科植物是一种非常具有经济和科研价值的植物资源,同样也是一种观赏性很强的植物。目前,野生兰科植物的种类和数量正在急剧减少,而在自然状态下,兰科植物需与菌根真菌建立共生关系才能够生存。19世纪中期起,人们对菌根的研究不断深化,研究表明,大多数植物都有菌根,菌根对植物的生长发育起着至关重要的作用,许多兰科植物没有菌根很难存活,其种子没有菌根的感染和影响就不能正常萌发。因此,对菌根真菌的分析在对兰科植物的研究领域中十分重要。兰科植物菌根真菌在兰科植物的生长发育过程中起着十分重要的作用,进一步了解研究植物菌根真菌的多样性和作用,对兰科植物的保护和培养以及相关产业的发展都有着积极意义。基于此,简要介绍兰科植物菌根真菌,并为其对种子萌发及苗木生长的影响方面进行了总结说明,旨在为研究兰科植物菌根真菌提供有益参考,促进我国生物研究行业的发展。

Native maize landraces from Los Tuxtlas, Mexico show varying mycorrhizal dependency for P uptake

Different degrees of dependency on the activity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) exist between native maize landraces and hybrids. In Los Tuxtlas, Mexico, the Popoluca people maintain a traditional polycultural land management with more than 15 native landraces of maize; however, it is not known whether the recent substitution of local maize for improved hybrids and fertilization has affected the integrity of the mycorrhizal symbiosis in these naturally phosphorus-poor systems. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate the response of four Popoluca maize landraces and the hybrid Texcoco to the presence of native AMF in conditions of low and medium P input (5 and 65 mg kg^?1, respectively). After 120 days in both P treatments, the native landraces Black and Yellow presented higher colonization and had acquired more P in their shoot biomass than the hybrid. The moderate fertilization did not appear to have affected the integrity of the mycorrhizal symbiosis, since all of the maize types presented a positive mycorrhizal dependency (2–14 %). Under low P conditions, the Texcoco hybrid maize presented one of the highest mycorrhizal dependencies; however, unlike the local landraces, this was not reflected in a higher tissue P concentration. The results obtained indicate that the native maize Black was the best at capturing symbiotic and direct P, which makes this landrace an important genetic and cultural heritage for the Popoluca and for the world.     

Influence of inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on stable isotopes of nitrogen in Phaseolus vulgaris

The interactions between Phaseolus vulgaris, Rhizobium spp. strains nodulating P. vulgaris, and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi were assessed under greenhouse conditions in a nonsterilized Typic Haplustalf soil from Cauca, Colombia. Our results indicate a specific involvement of AM fungal species in nitrogen acquisition by the legume plants from symbiotic nitrogen fixation and from soil. A significant specific influence of inoculation with Glomus spp. on the ¹⁵N/¹⁴N ratio in plant shoots was dependent on the inoculated rhizobial strain, but AM fungal inoculation had no significant effect on shoot dry weight or nodule occupancy in the two different rhizobial strain treatments. The results imply that in low P soils the effects of an improved mycorrhizal symbiosis may include improved symbiotic N₂ fixation efficiency and/or improved soil N uptake. Received: 11 May 1996     

Inoculation of seeds and soil with basidiospores of mycorrhizal fungi

It was demonstrated that basidiospores of the fungus Rhizopoyon luteolus, mycorrhizal for Pinus radiata, could be used successfully as seed inoculum after freeze-drying and storage for 3 months at 22°C, provided the inoculum level was increased 100-fold. Spore inoculum applied to seed could be held dry for at least 2 days before planting provided inoculum was increased 10-fold. On sowing freshly inoculated seed to sterile soil, 3 × 10³ basidiospores/seed were adequate for infection but maximum mycorrhizal infection occurred with 3 × 10⁴ spores/seed.A dose-response curve was obtained for mycorrhizal infection when basidiospores were applied to soil. As few as 100 spores/290 cm³ pot were sufficient for mycorrhizal infection although infection increased with greater spore dose to a maximum of 10⁵ spores/pot. Plant growth response was related to intensity of infection. It is suggested that the percentage germination of basidiospores in the rhizosphere may be considerably greater than those reported in studies with synthetic medium. A rhizosphere effect on germination of basidiospores was demonstrated and a method developed to facilitate studies of spore germination in the rhizosphere.     

Technique for visual demonstration of germinating arbuscular mycorrhizal spores and their multiplication in pots

We describe a simple technique for the germination of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM)–fungal spores and their multiplication in pots. Glomus fasciculatum, G. mosseae, and Gigaspora margarita were used. A single wheat seedling was tied to a glass slide, previously covered with filter paper with the help of thread. One single surface‐sterilized AM‐fungal spore was placed on the middle portion of the root of the wheat seedling using a sterilized syringe. The slide was placed vertically in a 100 mL glass beaker filled with 25 mL of root exudates–water (1:4, v/v) solution, which was collected by growing twenty wheat seedlings in a 150 mL beaker filled with 100 mL sterilized distilled water for 7 d. The slide was observed daily using a compound microscope to follow the time course of germination. In this technique, the spore is directly in contact with the host root, and a visualization of spore germination, hyphal development, and appressorium formation is possible without disrupting fungal growth or the establishment of the symbiosis. The method allows to document the germination events and to assess hyphal‐elongation rates by photographing the same spore on consecutive days. The inoculated seedling was used to initiate single‐spore multiplication in a sterilized (autoclave on 3 alternate days at 120°C for 120 min at 1.05 kg cm^–2 pressure) potted sandy soil (150 mL volume) into which the slide with the inoculated seedling was inserted carefully through a previously made slit. The wheat seedlings in all pots (4 treatments and 15 replications) became colonized by mycorrhiza, confirming that the establishment of the AM‐fungal symbiosis is highly reproducible. Our technique permits the relatively undisturbed growth of the symbiotic partners, the visualization of germinating AM‐fungal spores, and their multiplication in pots. This simple and low‐cost method facilitates the production of pure lines of AM fungi from single spores, allowing for the study of intraspecific variation and potentiality for cytological, biochemical, physiological, and taxonomical studies.     

丛枝菌根(AM)真菌与共生植物物质交换研究进展

丛枝菌根(Arbuscular Mycorrhizal,AM)真菌能与约 80% 的陆生植物形成共生关系,植、 菌间矿质养分、 碳水化合物的物质交换是自然界物质循环的重要内容。目前,AM 真菌促进共生植物矿质养分吸收的研究相对较多。研究表明, AM 真菌可通过根外菌丝更小的吸收直径,加强矿质养分的空间有效性; 通过释放有机酸、 土壤酶,活化土壤中被固定的矿质养分; 通过根外菌丝上较低 Km 值的矿质养分转运蛋白,保证养分从土壤至根外菌丝的转运效率; 通过矿质养分在菌丝内运输形式的改变,增强养分的运输速率; 通过诱导共生植物矿质养分转运蛋白表达,提高植、 菌间养分的转运效率。相较于 AM 真菌促进共生植物养分吸收,植物反馈真菌碳水化合物的研究相对较少。鉴于 AM 真菌与植物共生关系在生态系统中的重要作用,明晰植、 菌间矿质养分和碳水化合物交换的具体场所(丛枝、 根内菌丝、 根外菌丝)、 具体形式(离子、 聚合物、 氨基酸、 蔗糖、 单糖)、 具体过程(主动运输)具有重要科学意义。本文对 AM 真菌与共生植物物质交换的丛枝、 菌丝双膜结构,氮(N)、 磷(P)、 糖等物质交换的具体形式以及跨双膜、 耗能量、 互耦连的物质交换过程进行综述,并从物质交换的场所、 形式、 过程三个方面提出了植、 菌物质交换的研究方向。
