Concentrations of Some Metabolites Produced by Fungi of the Genus Fusarium and Selected Elements in Spring Spelt Grain

The aim of this study was to determine the content of selected elements and metabolites produced by fungi of the genus Fusarium in spelt (Triticum spelta L.) grain and husks and common wheat (T. aestivum L.) grain. Concentrations of trichothecenes, a volatile metabolite trichodiene (TRICH), as well as ergosterol (ERG) and adenosine 5′‐triphosphate (ATP) (a total microbial biomass indicator), were assessed. Toxin concentrations in spelt grain and husks harvested in 2003 and 2004 were comparable. Average deoxynivalenol concentrations reached 450 and 523 μg/kg in grain and 2,162 and 855 μg/kg in husks, respectively. Spelt grain, in comparison with common wheat grain, contained significantly higher concentrations of P, S, Mg, Zn, and Cu and a lower concentration of Al, whereas the concentrations of Ca, Fe, and Pb were significantly higher in the husks than in the grain of this cereal. A comparison of concentrations of Fusarium spp. metabolites in the grain of spelt and common wheat showed that the total concentration of mycotoxins and TRICH was slightly lower in T. spelta, whereas common wheat grain contained lower concentrations of ERG and ATP. The obtained results indicate that spelt husks contain considerable concentrations of trichothecenes.     

丛枝菌根真菌促进植物摄取土壤磷的作用机制

磷在土壤中易被固定沉淀,在植物磷利用率低的情况下,过度施肥会造成磷肥浪费,可能通过地表径流、地下水溶解等方式,造成水体富营养化产生面源污染,对人类生产生活造成较大影响。丛枝菌根真菌(arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi,AMF)和植物结合所形成的共生菌根可以显著增强植株对磷的吸收利用。通过AMF可以提高宿主植株对磷的吸收转运的特性,从AMF促进植株对磷元素的摄取机制、AMF促进植物磷摄取分子机理、AMF作用下根系分泌物对植株磷利用的影响与根际微生物对AMF磷元素利用的影响4个方面的研究进展进行分析总结。AMF可以通过改变宿主植株的根系形态和菌丝网络的形成,扩大植株对养分吸收范围;释放有机酸、磷酸酶和质子等根系分泌物改变土壤结构和理化性质,与根际微生物共同作用降解土壤中难溶性磷酸盐;诱导相关磷转运蛋白基因的特异性表达,提高植株对磷的转运能力而促进其吸收。     

镉污染对烤烟根际土壤细菌和真菌群落结构的影响

根际土壤微生物是根际土壤生态系统的重要组成部分,为了明确镉污染条件下烤烟根际土壤微生物群落结构变化,采用全生育期盆栽方法,利用分子生物学PCR-DGGE技术,对不同浓度镉污染下烤烟根际细菌和真菌的群落结构进行了分析,结果表明:(1)镉污染浓度为4 mg kg-1处理的根际土壤细菌群落条带数,明显少于其他处理;随镉污染浓度的增加,一些土壤细菌类群逐渐消失,但特定细菌对高浓度镉污染具有较强的耐受能力;根际细菌可归入8个类群,Bacterium ellin、Acidobacteria酸杆菌和Mycobacterium分枝杆菌属对不同浓度镉污染具有较强的适应能力,其中leptolyngbya瘦鞘丝藻属能适应中等浓度的镉污染,在该浓度下,该微生物可大量繁殖为优势种群。(2)随着镉污染浓度增加,部分特有真菌类群出现,但是在中等镉浓度(4 mg kg-1)处理下,部分真菌类群消失;真菌群落结构可归入4个类群,其中优势和共有类群为Fusarium镰刀菌属和未知菌属,对不同浓度镉污染耐受性较强;Acremonium sclerotigenum硬化支顶孢霉对镉污染反应敏感,Rhizopus根霉菌属嗜好高浓度镉的真菌。     

Interactions of Denitrifying Bacteria, Actinomycetes, and Fungi on Nitrate Removal in Mix-Culturing Systems

Bacteria, actinomycetes, and fungi are the dominant components of the soil microflora, and some of their species can perform denitrification. The aim of this study was to investigate the interactions of three kinds of denitrifiers in mix-culturing systems. Three denitrifying strains, i.e., one bacterial strain (strain B5), one actinomycete strain (strain A2), and one fungal strain (strain F1), were isolated from a rice paddy soil. Denitrifier interactions were examined by analyzing the population dynamics and metabolic substance in the mix-culturing systems with two and three strains and by estimating the effects of cell-free culture filtrates on the strains. Results showed that the growth of B5 was enhanced by F1 and A2, respectively, and nitrate removal proportions in the culture systems increased from 52% (B5) to 64% (B5 + F1) and 67% (B5 + A2), and the nitrate removal was further enhanced in the three strain mix-culturing system (74%, A2 + F1 + B5). Strain B5 stimulated the cell growth of A2 directly and indirectly. The existence of A2 was lethal for cell growth of F1, while A2 was also suppressed by F1. The suppressive interaction reduced nitrate removal rates from the single systems of 12.8 (F1) and 11.5?mg?L^?1?day^?1 (A2) to 8.75?mg?L^?1 day^?1 (A2 + F1). Likewise, F1 was inhibited by B5. The results also showed that the cell-free culture filtrates of other strains suppressed the cell growth of B5 and F1, respectively, but enhanced the cell growth of A2. In addition to the direct effect of cell-free culture filtrates, other indirect relationships could affect the denitrifier spatial distributions and balance of the suppression or promotion effects, which were beneficial to maintain the microbial structure and function stability with a low nitrous oxide emission in the soil.     

15N-氨基糖探针技术新用法:区分和量化土壤真菌和细菌固持无机氮速率

土壤微生物对无机氮的固持作用是构成土壤保氮机制的重要组成。作为土壤微生物的两大主要类群,真菌和细菌是微生物固持无机氮作用的主要参与者。然而,由于土壤微生物的高度复杂多变性,如何有效区分和量化土壤中真菌和细菌各自对无机氮的固持作用是个难题。针对该问题,本文采用“氨基糖稳定同位素探针（AS-SIP）”技术来区分和表征土壤中真菌、细菌各自对无机氮的固持速率。基于此进一步揭示了农业利用和外源碳输入分别对土壤真菌、细菌各自固持硝态氮作用的影响及原因,构建了土壤中真菌、细菌各自固持无机氮实际速率的估算模型,为区分和量化土壤中真菌、细菌各自对无机氮的实际固持速率提供了更为可信的新方法。本文介绍了AS-SIP 技术原理、主要技术优势、应用案例、不足之处以及改进对策,以期推进该方法的应用和发展。     

活性污泥中细菌对聚丙烯酰胺的生物降解研究

聚丙烯酰胺（Polyacrylamide,PAM）是一类重要的水溶性高分子聚合物,已广泛应用到工农业生产的各个领域和人们的日常生活中。同时,PAM在环境中的残留、迁移和降解对环境的污染也日趋严重,尤其是降解后的单体丙烯酰胺对人类的神经系统有很大的危害。本文从胜利油田的活性污泥中筛选出3株聚丙烯酰胺降解菌,通过比较筛选出一株降解效果较好的菌,命名为AS－2。根据生理生化特性分析,初步鉴定为海球菌属。采用室内培养方法,研究了AS－2对聚丙烯酰胺生物降解的最佳条件。结果表明,当降解时间为5d,pH=8,温度为40℃,碳源为原油,氮源为NaNO3,原油和NaNO3的含量分别为2．5,1．4g·L^-1时,AS-2对聚丙烯酰胺的降解率达到45．23％。通过对聚丙烯酰胺生物降解前后的红外谱图比较,推断出AS-2主要降解了聚丙烯酰胺侧链的酰胺基,将酰胺基降解为羧酸和游离的氡基。用高效液相色谱检测生化后的PAM溶液,未检测出单体丙烯酰胺。     

根际溶铁细菌与AM真菌协同提高石灰性土壤铁有效性的机制研究

石灰性土壤普遍存在铁有效性低导致的植物缺铁黄化现象,严重影响农业可持续发展。筛选高效溶铁细菌并探讨其与菌根真菌（AMF）协同提高土壤有效铁含量、改善植物铁营养机制具有重要意义。以石灰性土壤和番茄（Lycopersicon esculentum）为试材进行盆栽试验,分别接种Advenella kashmirensis（B1）、Arthrobacter cupressi（B2）、Klebsiella variicola（B3）、Variovorax guangxiensis（B4）和Enterobacter ludwigii（B5）5株细菌,以不接菌处理为对照（CK）,筛选出高效溶铁菌株B1、B2和B3。将其与纯培养得到的AM真菌孢子（Rhizoshagu irregularis, Ri）组合,设置单独接种AM真菌（Ri）、单菌与Ri（B1+Ri、B2+Ri和B3+Ri）、菌群与Ri（B1+B2+B3+Ri）共接种处理,进一步探究单菌及菌群与AMF协同促进石灰性土壤难溶性铁的活化和促进植物铁吸收的机制。结果表明：（1）与对照相比,接种B1、B2和B3能够显著促进番茄生长,根系和地上部全铁积累量分别提高6.48倍和2.61倍（B1）、4.11倍和2.03倍（B2）、4.37倍和2.25倍（B3）;新叶活性铁含量分别提高74.21%、1.33倍和1.75倍。（2）与单接AMF相比,不同共接种组合显著增加番茄生物量,各部位平均全铁积累量显著提高58.32%~119.43%,其中B3+Ri处理、B1+B2+B3+Ri处理下番茄根系活性铁含量分别提高41.47%和44.30%、新叶活性铁含量分别提高12.61%和12.77%。不同共接种组合处理显著提高AM真菌的菌根侵染率,较单接AM真菌处理提高13.35%~30.99%;根系铁还原酶活性增加9.86%~22.07%,根系LeFIT1、LeFRO2和LeMYB72基因表达显著上调。与单接AM真菌相比,B3+Ri和B1+B2+B3+Ri处理下根际土壤pH分别降低0.21和0.09,土壤有效铁含量分别提高15.78%和55.23%。综上,AM真菌与3株高效溶铁细菌的协同作用可显著提高石灰性土壤铁有效性并改善植物铁营养,不同类型溶铁细菌与AMF的协同作用机制不同,为解决石灰性土壤铁有效性低的问题提供了微生物途径。

观音岩地区钙质砂(砾)岩溶蚀试验模拟研究

岩石的溶蚀对岩溶的产生至关重要,溶蚀机理及其影响因素的研究对于溶蚀现象解释必不可少.针对研究较少的钙质砂(砾)岩,采用试验模拟的方法,考虑了影响岩溶发育的影响因素去研究钙质砂(砾)岩的溶蚀特点.研究认为:钙质砂(砾)岩溶蚀速度缓慢;岩石样品的固有特性对岩溶发育有重要影响;岩样的状态因素不是溶蚀的控制性因素,钙质砂(砾)岩的溶蚀速率慢于同等条件下的碳酸盐岩.
