Unsaponifiable lipids from haulm and tuber sprouts of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.)

Summary Fractions containing Δ⁵- and Δ⁷-sterols, 4-methyl-sterols, triterpenic alcohols, tocopherols and hydrocarbons were isolated by TLC from petroleum ether extracts of the haulm and tuber sprouts of cv Désirée. Sterol and triterpenic alcohol fractions of unsaponifiable lipids of the haulm and tuber sprouts were found to contain twelve sterols and four triterpenic alcohols, respectively. 24R-4-stigmasten-3-on, Δ⁷, Δ⁷, lanosterol, cycloeucalenol and obtisufoliol have not been identified previously in unsaponifiable lipids from haulm and sprouts. In the hydrocarbon fractions of the haulm extract, C₂₃-to C₃₃-n-parafins, C₁₉-and C₃₁-cyclohexyl hydrocarbons, C₂₂-to C₃₈-olefins and squalene were identified, and in the hydrocarbon fractions of the tuber sprouts C₁₂-to C₂₆-olefins and squalene were identified.

稻田土壤CH4排放及其关联微生物功能基因丰度对磺胺二甲嘧啶和铜污染的响应

为了研究畜禽粪便中磺胺类兽用抗生素磺胺二甲嘧啶(Sulfamethazine,SMZ)和典型重金属铜(Copper,Cu)复合污染对稻田土壤CH_4排放及其微生物相关功能基因丰度的影响,以猪粪为肥源,设置无污染、低、中、高4种SMZ和Cu不同污染水平的浓度,SMZ分别为0、0.1、1、5 mg·kg~(-1),Cu分别为0、100、500、1 500 mg·kg~(-1),两两组合共计16个处理,通过长时间室内模拟淹水培养实验,定期测定CH_4排放速率和相关土壤功能基因丰度,以期探索SMZ和Cu单一及复合污染影响CH_4排放和相关功能基因丰度的浓度效应及影响时长。结果表明:培养前期(0～12 d),不同浓度的SMZ和Cu未显著影响CH_4排放速率(P0.05);培养中后期(13～71 d),单一低浓度SMZ(0.1 mg·kg~(-1))处理对CH_4排放具有促进作用,高浓度SMZ(≥1 mg·kg~(-1))则反之,单一Cu污染及与不同浓度的SMZ复合污染处理均显著降低了CH_4排放速率(P0.05)。与对照(SMZ和Cu零添加)相比,除单一低浓度SMZ(0.1 mg·kg~(-1))处理的CH_4累积排放量增加了19.7%外,其他处理均显著降低了CH_4排放,尤其Cu和SMZ(≥1 mg·kg~(-1))复合污染处理显著降低了约77%(P0.05)。SMZ单一污染对16S rRNA-CH_4、mcr A和pmo A的基因丰度均有明显的浓度效应和输入时间效应,Cu单一污染则未有明显的浓度和时间效应,两者复合污染的联合作用比较复杂,主要取决于两污染物的起始浓度及SMZ输入土壤的时间。无论SMZ和Cu单一还是复合污染,中高浓度在培养的后期对三大基因丰度的影响均以降低为主,且pmo A基因丰度对Cu和SMZ单一及复合污染响应更敏感。研究表明,SMZ和Cu在一定程度上会降低稻田土壤CH_4排放及相关微生物基因丰度,有利于温室气体减排,但规模化养殖业畜禽粪便还田后导致抗生素和重金属高残留的环境风险仍不可忽视。

Some plants like it warmer: Increased growth of three selected invasive plant species in soils with a history of experimental warming

Soil warming can affect plant performance by increasing soil nutrient availability through accelerating microbial activity. Here, we test the effect of experimental soil warming on the growth of the three invasive plant species Trifolium pratense (legume), Phleum pratense (grass), and Plantago lanceolata (herb) in the temperate-boreal forest ecotone of Minnesota (USA). Plants were grown from seed mixtures in microcosms of soils with three different warming histories over four years: ambient, ambient +1.7 °C, and ambient +3.4 °C. Shoot biomass of P. pratense and P. lanceolata and plant community root biomass increased significantly in soils with +3.4 °C warming history, whereas T. pratense responded positively but not significantly. Soil microbial biomass and N concentration could not explain warming effects, although the latter correlated significantly with the shoot biomass of P. lanceolata. Our results indicate that soil with a warming history may benefit some invasive plants in the temperate-boreal ecotone with potential impacts on plant community composition. Future studies should investigate the impact of warming-induced differences in soil organisms and nutrients on plant invasion.     

杭州湾滨海湿地CH4排放通量的研究

2013年4—9月,利用静态明箱–气相色谱法对杭州湾裸滩湿地、海三棱藨草湿地、芦苇湿地和互花米草湿地CH4排放通量进行了原位观测,并利用室内厌氧培养法测定了0~30 cm深度的土壤CH4产生潜力。结果表明:整体而言,裸滩湿地表现为CH4的吸收源,CH4排放通量春季高、夏季低;海三棱藨草湿地、芦苇湿地和互花米草湿地表现为CH4的排放源,CH4排放通量均呈现夏季高、春秋季低的季节变化。平均CH4排放通量表现为:互花米草湿地(1.589 mg/(m2·h))芦苇湿地(0.722 mg/(m2·h))海三棱藨草湿地(0.218 mg/(m2·h))裸滩湿地(–0.068 mg/(m2·h)),互花米草湿地各月CH4排放通量均显著高于其他湿地。0~30 cm深度平均土壤CH4产生潜力表现为:互花米草湿地(0.050μg/(g·d)芦苇湿地(0.042μg/(g·d))裸滩湿地(0.030μg/(g·d)海三棱藨草湿地(0.027μg/(g·d)),互花米草湿地各土层CH4产生潜力显著高于其他湿地(除0~5 cm外)。裸滩湿地土壤CH4产生潜力没有明显的空间垂直变化趋势,CH4产生潜力最大值、最小值分别出现在10~20 cm和5~10 cm土层。其他3类湿地0~5 cm土层的CH4产生潜力最大,土壤CH4产生潜力整体上随着土壤深度的增加而减小;海三棱藨草湿地和芦苇湿地5~10 cm土层的CH4产生潜力最小,互花米草湿地20~30 cm土层的CH4产生潜力最小。土壤p H、有机碳和全氮含量对CH4排放通量有显著的影响。     

水稻根际和周围土壤中微生物功能基因丰度与碳、氮状况及其通量之间的关系

Rapid nitrogen（N） transformations and losses occur in the rice rhizosphere through root uptake and microbial activities. However,the relationships between rice roots and rhizosphere microbes for N utilization are still unclear. We analyzed different N forms（NH＋4,NO-3, and dissolved organic N）, microbial biomass N and C, dissolved organic C, CH4 and N2O emissions, and abundance of microbial functional genes in both rhizosphere and bulk soils after 37-d rice growth in a greenhouse pot experiment. Results showed that the dissolved organic C was significantly higher in the rhizosphere soil than in the non-rhizosphere bulk soil, but microbial biomass C showed no significant difference. The concentrations of NH＋4, dissolved organic N, and microbial biomass N in the rhizosphere soil were significantly lower than those of the bulk soil, whereas NO-3in the rhizosphere soil was comparable to that in the bulk soil. The CH4 and N2O fluxes from the rhizosphere soil were much higher than those from the bulk soil. Real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis showed that the abundance of seven selected genes, bacterial and archaeal 16 S rRNA genes, amoA genes of ammonia-oxidizing archaea and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, nosZ gene, mcrA gene, and pmoA gene, was lower in the rhizosphere soil than in the bulk soil, which is contrary to the results of previous studies. The lower concentration of N in the rhizosphere soil indicated that the competition for N in the rhizosphere soil was very strong, thus having a negative effect on the numbers of microbes. We concluded that when N was limiting, the growth of rhizosphere microorganisms depended on their competitive abilities with rice roots for N.
