黑豆—油菜与大豆—油菜轮作模式土壤镉修复能力比较

通过设置黑豆-油菜、大豆-油菜的轮作模式在湖南醴陵进行大田试验,结果发现黑豆表现出较强的镉富集能力,其根、茎、叶及果壳中镉含量分别为2.14、2.63、4.10及1.34 mg/kg,富集系数均在1以上。油菜各个部位镉含量较高的分别为叶与茎,达到了7.13和4.73 mg/kg。黑豆各部位镉转运系数均高于大豆,各油料作物提取的重金属主要集中在茎与叶。大豆叶的镉富集系数为2.06,茎的镉富集系数为0.86,明显低于黑豆同部位的富集能力。每公顷土地经过一轮黑豆-油菜、大豆-油菜轮作分别能够从土壤中提取73.52 g和51.68 g的镉,对土壤重金属镉的修复效率约为3%。     

Reduction in cadmium accumulation in japonica rice grains by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated editing of OsNRAMP5

Cadmium (Cd) intake is harmful to human health and Cd contamination in rice grains represents a severe threat to those consuming rice as a staple food. Knockout of Cd transporters is a promising strategy to reduce Cd accumulation in rice grains. OsNRAMP5 is the major transporter for Cd and manganese (Mn) uptake in rice. Nevertheless, it is uncertain whether knockout of OsNRAMP5 is applicable to produce low Cd rice without affecting plant growth and grain yield. In this study, we adopted CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing technology to knock out OsNRAMP5 in two japonica varieties. We generated three independent transgene-free osnramp5 mutants and investigated the effect of osnramp5 mutations on Cd accumulation and plant growth. Hydroponic experiments showed that plant growth and chlorophyll content were significantly reduced in osnramp5 mutants at low Mn conditions, and this defective growth in the mutants could be fully rescued by supply of high levels of Mn. Cd and Mn accumulation in both roots and shoots was markedly reduced in the mutants compared to that in wild-type plants. In paddy field experiments, although Cd in flag leaves and grains was greatly reduced in osnramp5 mutants, some agronomic traits including plant height, seed setting rate, and grain number per panicle were affected in the mutants, which ultimately caused a mild reduction in grain yield. The reduced plant growth in the mutants can be attributed to a marked decrease in Mn accumulation. Our results reveal that the manipulation of OsNRAMP5 should be treated with caution: When assessing the applicability of osnramp5 mutants, soil pH and soil water content in paddy fields need to be taken into consideration, since they might affect the levels of available Mn in the soil and consequently determine the effect of the mutation on grain yield.     

硒肥与钝化材料组配对土壤Cd钝化及稻米Cd消减效果

为了探讨不同硒肥施用方式联合钝化材料对土壤镉钝化和稻米镉消减的效果,采用盆栽试验的方式,选用亚硒酸钠作为硒肥,钙镁磷肥和硅藻土作为钝化材料,设置基施硒肥+钙镁磷肥+硅藻土和叶面喷施硒肥+钙镁磷肥+硅藻土2种方式,研究其不同用量对镉污染酸性稻田土壤修复与安全利用的影响。结果表明：随着施用量的增加,稻米产量增加,基施硒肥产量略高于叶面喷施硒肥,产量差为 2.115 g/pot,与对照(CK)相比,基施0.28%钙镁磷肥+0.12%硅藻土+0.004‰硒(T3)能够提高1.68倍的稻米产量;随着施用量的增加,pH升高,有效Cd降低,有机质与CEC变化不大;基施硒肥与叶面喷施硒肥处理对土壤pH、有机质与CEC差异不显著,但基施硒肥处理有效Cd含量略低于叶面喷施硒肥处理,T3对土壤Cd的钝化效果最佳;随着基施硒肥用量的增加,稻米Cd含量降低,随着叶面喷施硒肥用量的增加,稻米Cd含量先降低后升高,基施硒肥处理对稻米Cd的消减程度强于叶面喷施硒肥处理,相差 0.021 mg/kg,与对照(CK)相比,T3处理稻米Cd降低0.063 mg/kg。可见,硒对调控稻米镉累积具有重要作用,且基施硒肥强于叶面喷施。综上所述,基施0.28%钙镁磷肥+0.12%硅藻土+0.004‰硒对土壤Cd钝化与稻米Cd消减的效果最佳,值得在镉污染稻田推广应用。     

Protective Effect of Sulforaphane on Reproductive Function of Male Mice with Cadmium Poisoning

The study was aimed to explore the protective effect of sulforaphane (SFN) on the reproductive function of male mice with cadmium poisoning.40 healthy clean grade male Kunming mice were randomly divided into four groups:control group (H₂O),cadmium chloride group (2.3 mg/kg CdCl₂),sulforaphane group (10 mg/kg SFN),sulforaphane + cadmium chloride group (10 mg/kg SFN+2.3 mg/kg CdCl₂),and continuous administration for 10 d,all mice were executed by dislocated cervical vertebra at 2 d after the last administration,and then the pathologic changes of testicular tissues,organ coefficient of testicle and epididymis,sperm quality and concentration of testosterone were tested.Additionally,the contents of GSH and MDA,and the activities of T-SOD in testis were also detected at the same time. Compared with the control group,pathology damages were observed in cadmium chloride group,organ coefficient of testis and epididymis,sperm quality and levels of testosterone extremely significantly decreased (P<0.01),the activities of T-SOD and GSH content were extremely significantly decreased (P<0.01),and the concentration of MDA was extremely significantly enhanced (P<0.01).Compared with the control group,the activity of T-SOD and concentration of GSH in sulforaphane group were significantly increased (P<0.05),and the concentration of MDA was not significant different between the control group and sulforaphane group (P>0.05).While compared with the cadmium chloride group,the sperm motility rate and sperm total count in sulforaphane and cadmium chloride group were extremely significantly increased (P<0.01),the organ coefficient of testicle and epididymis was increased significantly (P<0.05),the concentration of GSH and activity of T-SOD in testicular tissue were extremely significantly increased (P<0.01),and the concentration of MDA was extremely significantly decreased (P<0.01).The results indicated that sulforaphane had the protection effect on reproduction function of male mice with cadmium poisoning.     

Metal contamination from open-cast copper and sulphur mining in southeast Ireland

The metal content was determined in soil and vegetation around the eastern zone of the disused sulphur and copper mines at Avoca (southeast Ireland). A 250 m × 250 m grid survey was conducted covering a total area of 4 km². The mining belt was in the centre of the investigated site and was sampled separately. Iron, Zn, Cu and Cd concentrations in soil and plant material were determined, in addition to soil organic matter content and soil pH. Soil samples taken from the spoil showed elevated Cu and Cd concentrations, and low soil pH and organic matter content. At least 50 per cent of the agricultural sites examined around the East Avoca Mine showed elevated soil Cu and Cd concentrations, whereas Zn and Fe soil concentrations were within the range for unpolluted soils. None of the vegetation analysed had elevated Zn, Cd, Fe or Cu concentrations. Overall there was no indication of serious metal contamination in either soils or vegetation surrounding the mine in spite of extensive dust deposition during open-pit mining activity 15–30 years ago. However, a plume of elevated Cu in the soil was identified, which originated from a large spoil heap and had been spread for some 2·0 km by the prevailing wind.     

滇东地质高背景区土壤镉的伴矿景天修复及其对后茬水稻的影响

云南是我国典型的重金属元素地球化学高背景区,超积累植物能否有效修复镉（Cd）地质高背景土壤,从而实现农产品安全生产,尚鲜见报道。以云南石林、富源和罗平等三地的典型Cd地质高背景农田土壤为对象,开展温室盆栽试验,探究Cd、锌（Zn）超积累植物伴矿景天对土壤Cd的吸取修复效果,及对后茬水稻生长和Cd吸收的作用。结果表明,种植三季伴矿景天使三地土壤全量Cd分别下降24.8%、30.9%和58.8%;伴矿景天在富源玄武岩风化物母质发育的土壤上长势最好,与富源土壤肥力相对最高有关;伴矿景天在罗平石灰岩风化物发育的土壤上重金属吸取修复效果最佳,与罗平土壤呈中性、酸化作用更为明显有关,这些差异由土壤母质、养分与重金属有效性等综合影响所致。经伴矿景天吸取修复三季后,全生育期淹水种稻,其糙米和秸秆Cd浓度均大幅降低,可实现糙米Cd安全生产。未经植物吸取修复,旱作处理下水稻糙米Cd存在超标风险。植物吸取修复后种植水稻,再结合水分管理措施,可进一步降低稻米中Cd浓度,实现稻米安全生产,为Cd地质高背景区土壤的农作物安全生产提供理论依据和技术支撑。     

镉胁迫下猕猴桃对镉的吸收及转运

在对湖南省猕猴桃成年果园8个猕猴桃品种(金魁、金艳、翠玉、东红、红阳、丰悦、魁蜜、米良一号)镉含量调查分析的基础上,选取镉富集能力有差异的米良一号与金艳猕猴桃进行镉胁迫(5、10、15、20 mg/kg)下对镉的吸收、转运的差异研究。结果表明：成年果园8个猕猴桃品种在土壤中度镉污染(0.9 mg/kg)时,果实镉含量均未超过国家标准值(0.05 mg/kg);猕猴桃果实成熟期镉含量最高;镉胁迫下,米良一号和金艳镉含量随镉处理浓度增大而上升,且在镉浓度较低情况下富集能力较强;根的镉分配系数最大(＞0.90),果实的最小,说明猕猴桃主要由根部吸收累积镉;米良一号整株吸收和积累镉量显著高于金艳,但金艳对镉的转移能力强于米良一号,金艳果实镉含量高于米良一号。     

红叶甜菜-花生和油葵-花生轮作修复土壤Cd的能力

利用生物量高的经济作物进行轮作,可在加快修复土壤Cd污染进程的同时获得一定的经济效益。本研究在长沙市望城区群力村Cd轻度污染的土壤进行冬季种植红叶甜菜、夏季复种植花生和春末种植油葵、夏季复种植花生的轮作模式试验,探究重金属修复潜力。结果表明：花生、油葵、红叶甜菜各部位Cd富集系数除花生果实外均大于1,对Cd均有较强的富集能力。油葵-花生、红叶甜菜-花生轮作模式种植一季可提取土壤Cd总量分别为40.80 g·hm^-2和53.34 g·hm^-2。红叶甜菜-花生轮作将土壤Cd含量由0.316 mg·kg^-1降至0.286 mg·kg^-1,油葵-花生轮作一季将土壤Cd含量由0.316 mg·kg^-1降至0.283 mg·kg^-1。研究表明,红叶甜菜-花生、油葵-花生轮作模式均对土壤重金属Cd有较好的修复潜力。     

钝化材料对农田土壤Cd形态及微生物群落的影响

为探讨钝化剂对土壤Cd生态风险和土壤微生物群落结构的影响,通过田间试验,在轻度Cd污染水稻田中施加钝化剂（海泡石、石灰、秸秆生物炭和螯合铁肥）开展相关研究。结果表明：施加钝化剂使土壤pH值提高0.17~1.29个单位,Cd的可交换态减少29.79%~64.48%。施加海泡石、石灰、秸秆生物炭使得微生物群落的多样性指数（ACE、Chao1、Shannon）增加,但螯合铁肥不利于微生物群落的生长,多样性指数均减少。土壤微生物群落随钝化剂的施加发生显著改变,变形菌门、厚壁菌门、拟杆菌门相对丰度有所增加,芽单胞菌门、绿弯菌门、螺旋体菌门相对丰度均降低。相关性分析表明,pH和Cd是影响微生物群落的关键因素,此外Cd形态也对微生物群落产生了影响。研究表明,施用钝化剂可降低土壤中重金属Cd的潜在生态风险,改变土壤微生物群落结构,使多种微生物群落得到抑制或增强。     

南方某矿区土壤镉污染及作物健康风险研究

为了评估南方某县土壤镉污染情况、量化当地不同作物镉含量并对不同人群健康风险进行评估,从该县3个镇采集135份土壤样本,入户采集128份自产大米样本,种植区采集7份脐橙样本,对其中镉含量进行测定。结果表明,3镇采集土壤样品镉超标率分别为41.67%、28.81%和21.62%,地累积指数计算得到该县68.9%的土壤样本受到不同程度的镉污染,大米镉含量超标率分别为48.57%、34.48%、8.82%。而脐橙果肉样品中镉含量较低,远低于0.05 mg·kg^-1。计算不同作物的危害商数（HQ）可得,食用自产大米的危害商数（HQ）值普遍大于1,风险较高,而食用脐橙果肉产生的健康风险低。种植脐橙具有一定的经济效益,且当地具有脐橙适宜的生长条件,故考虑在重污染区种植脐橙取代种植水稻。
