Temperature and water-use efficiency by lucerne (Medicago sativa) sheltered by a tree windbreak in Tunisia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
J. Benzarti 《Agroforestry Systems》1998,43(1-3):95-108
Based on the assumption that with unrestricted water availability, temperature will determine the response of sheltered crops,
the effects of a Casuarina glauca Sieb. windbreak on the microclimate, water use and biological production of a lucerne crop
were investigated. Degree-days (dd) were used to compute an index for the efficiency of the thermal effects of the shelter
on a well- watered lucerne, under favourable (10 to 30 °C) and unfavourable (above 30 °C) temperature conditions. Water use
efficiency was considered for two contrasting water regimes, with no water stress or with a large water deficit. In June,
under favourable temperature and water availability conditions, temperature efficiency of the windbreak was 39 g m−2 dd−1
at a distance of three times the height of the trees compared to an exposed situation, and water use efficiency increased
by 7.1 g mm−1. However, the sheltered conditions induced a decrease in above ground biomass production and water use efficiency
when a highly restrictive water regime was applied. In July, daytime temperatures were disadvantageous to the lucerne, and
even with a high degree of water availability, there were no significant differences between sheltered and unsheltered conditions.
This research may help decision makers to manage windbreak systems by designing an appropriate irrigated area according to
the shelter and choosing crops that will best benefit from sheltered conditions.

Bioaugmentation and biostimulation effects on PAH dissipation and soil ecotoxicity under controlled conditions 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The degradation of spiked anthracene (ANT), pyrene (PYR) and benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) in soil (3000 mg ∑ 3 PAHs kg−1 dry soil) was studied in aerobically incubated microcosms for 120 d. The applied treatments aimed at enhancing PAH removal from the heavily contaminated soils are: (i) bioaugmentation by adding aged PAH-contaminated soil (ACS) containing activated indigenous degraders; and (ii) combined bioaugmentation/biostimulation by incorporating sewage sludge compost (SSC) and decaying rice straw (DRS). The adopted treatments produced higher PAH dissipation rates than those observed in unamended PAH-spiked soils, especially for ANT and PYR in the presence of DRS or ACS (>96%). However, B[a]P was the most recalcitrant hydrocarbon to biodegradation. Extracellular enzyme investigation revealed the existence of ligninolytic activities in all soil treatments, including control but no relationship could be found with PAH dissipation. The ecotoxicological assessment indicated that regardless of applied treatment, PAH-spiked soils were chronically lethal to ostracod Heterocypris incongruens and confirmed the sensitivity of the microcrustacean to the concomitant presence of these three hydrocarbons. Lettuce root elongation inhibition was correlated with PAH level but the presence of SSC conferred a strong phytotoxic capacity to PAH-spiked soils. DRS amendment may constitute a cost-effective alternative for hydrocarbon bioremediation as it has impacted positively on soil microbial activity and enhanced PAH removal with no apparent changes in soil physico-chemical properties. 相似文献

Involvement of nitrogen in salt resistance of Atriplex portulacoides is supported by split‐root experiment data and exogenous application of N‐rich compounds 下载免费PDF全文
Using a split‐root system, we aimed to identify the limiting factors for the growth of the halophyte Atriplex portulacoides L. under extreme salinity (800 mM NaCl) conditions. One half of the root system was immersed in complete nutrient solution at 0 or 800 mM NaCl and the other half was immersed in NaCl‐free medium, containing all nutrients or deprived of potassium (K+) or calcium (Ca2+) or nitrogen (N). Data indicate that at high salinity levels A. portulacoides growth is limited by the restrictions imposed by NaCl on N uptake. Next, the alleviation of the adverse impact by salt stress (800 mM NaCl) on plant growth was investigated through urea (U) and/or thiourea (TU) external addition through foliar application. Whether separately or supplied together, both components mitigated the negative impact of salinity on the plant growth by significantly improving the photosynthetic activity parameters [CO2 assimilation rate, stomatal conductance and maximum quantum efficiency of PSII photochemistry (Fv/Fm)], as well as shoot N concentration and the photosynthetic nitrogen‐use efficiency (PNUE). A concomitant increase of protein and free amino acid concentrations was also observed. As a whole, the present study highlights the significance of N in A. portulacoides response to high salinity and suggests that combined application of U and TU could promote the growth of this halophyte potentially useful for saline soil reclamation and revegetation purposes. 相似文献

A field study was carried out to evaluate long-term heavy metal (HM) accumulation in the top 20 cm of a Tunisian clayey loam soil amended for (four years) with municipal solid waste compost (MSWC) at three levels (0, 40 and 80 t ha?1 year?1). HM uptake and translocation within wheat plants grown on these soils were also investigated. Compared to untreated soils, MSWC-amended soils showed significant increases in the content of all measured HM (Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) in the last three years, especially for the 80 t ha?1 year?1 MSWC-amended plots. Wheat plants grown on MSWC-amended soils showed a general increase in metal uptake and translocation, especially for Cr and Ni. This HM uptake was about three fold greater for treatment 80 t h?1 as compared to plots amended at a rate of 40 t h?1. At times, the diluting effect resulting from enhanced growth rates of the plants with compost application resulted in lower concentrations in the plants grown (grain part) on treated plots. On the other hand, Cr and Ni were less mobile in the aerial part of wheat plants and were accumulated essentially in root tissues. Plant/soil transfer coefficients for MSWC-amended treatments were higher than threshold range reported in the literature, indicating that there was an important load/transfer of HM ions from soils to wheat plants. 相似文献

Studies were carried out to assess the extraction yield of carotenoids from the African boxthorn (Lycium ferocissimum Miers, Solanaceae) fruits with different solvents and solvent mixtures, to optimize the extraction conditions for maximum recovery and to improve the extraction efficiency. Among other solvents, a mixture of hexane and acetone gave the highest carotenoid extraction. Extraction conditions, such as hexane percentage in hexane/acetone solvent mixture, solvent-solid ratio, and extraction time were optimized using a statistically designed experiment. A regression equation for predicting the carotenoid yield as a function of three extraction variables was derived by statistical analysis. The optimized conditions for maximum carotenoids yield were 45 % hexane in solvent mixture, solvent-solid ratio of 70 (ml/g) and extraction time 70 min. The dyeability of cotton with carotenoids extract has also been studied. Unmordant and postmordanted bleached cotton fabric with alum and ferrous sulphatewas dyed. Color measurements and fastness properties as light, rubbing and wash were tested. 相似文献
