马缨丹叶提取液对水葫芦叶片中超氧物歧化酶活性和过氧化氢积累的影响

水葫芦[Eichhornia crassipes（Mart）Solms]是世界上繁殖最快、危害最严重的多年生水生杂草之一。为了避免化学除草剂对水体的污染,生物防治已成为当前水葫芦治理的重要方向。马缨丹（Lantana camara）是马鞭草科的一种植物,其叶片提取物对水葫芦有很强的毒性。研究结果表明：经马缨丹叶提取液处理的水葫芦叶片中,超氧物歧化酶（SOD）活性与H2O2浓度均显著升高,但过氧化氢酶的活性受到抑制,膜脂过氧化程度明显增加。H2O2的组织化学染色结果表明H2O2在气孔细胞中有异常高的积累,H2O2过量产生同时导致水葫芦叶片失绿与细胞死亡。因此,氧胁迫可能是马缨丹提取液对水葫芦毒害的主要原因之一。     

几种高等水生植物的克藻效应

研究了水花生、水浮莲、满江红、紫萍、浮萍和西洋菜对雷氏衣藻的相生相克关系,并和水葫芦的作用进行了比较。试验指出前五种水生植物对雷氏衣藻表现了克制作用,但它们的克藻效能不如水葫芦强。西洋菜没有克制作用,甚至稍有促进效应。从水花生、水浮莲、水葫芦的种植水中得到的分泌物粗提物,都显示了对雷氏衣藻的抑制效应,进一步证实了有相生相克关系的存在。试验结果说明高等水生植物对藻类的克制作用似有一定的普遍性,在水生生态系统的形成和演替过程中可能起着重要的作用。

水葫芦资源化综合利用的现状和建议

一、水葫芦的特性和危害状况 1．水葫芦的特性 水葫芦又名凤眼莲,原产南美,分类学上属雨久花科。中国是20世纪初当作动物饲料引进水葫芦的。水葫芦事实上有许多优良特性：营养丰富,能够富集水体中的N、P和多种重金属。专家指出,在适宜条件下,一公顷水葫芦能将800人排放的氮、磷元素当天吸收掉。24小时内每千克水葫芦能从污泥中除去铬0．67毫克、铅0．176毫克、汞0．150毫克、银0．65毫克、钴0．57毫克、锶0．54毫克。从某种角度分析,水葫芦还是治污能手。

Algal diversity in flowing waters at an acidic mine drainage “barrens” in central Pennsylvania,USA

Microscopic investigations were undertaken to decipher the diversity in the lotic algal communities from acidic waters (pH 2.4–3.2) flowing overland in sheets and channels at an acid mine drainage (AMD) barrens near Kylertown, PA, USA. Microscopic observations, supplemented with taxonomic keys, aided in identification of the dominant algae, and measurement of carbon from adjacent soils was undertaken. The unicellular protist Euglena sp. was most abundant in slower flowing waters (i.e., pool near point of emergence and surficial flow sheets), while Ulothrix sp. was most abundant in faster flowing water from the central stream channel. A diverse range of unicellular microalgae such as Chlorella, Cylindrocystis, Botryococcus, and Navicula and several filamentous forms identified as Microspora, Cladophora, and Binuclearia were also recorded. The observed high algal diversity may be related to the long duration of AMD flow at this site which has led to the development of adapted algal communities. The comparatively higher carbon content in soil materials adjacent to slower flowing water sampling locations provides evidence for the important role of algae as primary producers in this extreme environment.     

环境汞污染对藻类的毒性效应及其影响因素

综述了汞污染对藻类的毒性效应及影响因素。水环境中汞主要以元素汞、无机汞和有机汞3种形式存在。藻类吸附汞主要分为胞外的快速吸附和胞内的缓慢富集,在安全浓度内,金属汞对藻生长有一定的促进作用,随着浓度增大,抑制藻生长或致死。汞进入藻体细胞后,藻类为了存活会产生一系列保护机制。藻类对汞的排斥和排出作用可能就是对汞耐性的一种重要机制。藻类也可以通过多种方式减少汞进入藻类细胞,以及通过与其他物质结合汞使其排出胞外。温度、pH、生物学因素等影响重金属对藻类的毒性作用。并就藻类对汞耐性和适应机理、利用藻类修复和监测重金属污染、藻类响应汞胁迫的信号转导途径及其保护机制等未来研究领域进行了展望。     

藻类挥发性有机化合物研究进展

在水域生态系统中, 藻类释放的挥发性有机化合物(VOCs)种类众多, 主要有萜烯类、醛类、醇类、酯类、酮类、脂肪族烃、芳香族、硫化物和卤化物。这些VOCs通过不同的次生代谢途径形成, 可为多种环境因素所诱导产生。在逆境胁迫下, VOCs具有提高藻细胞抗逆性的作用。当VOCs释放到水体中后, 可为同种藻细胞传递胁迫信息, 使感受细胞做好防御准备。对于异种藻细胞, VOCs通过化感作用抑制其生长, 从而保证VOCs释放者的竞争优势。此外, VOCs还可驱避捕食者, 保护藻细胞免受伤害。未被感受者利用的VOCs经挥发进入大气层后, 会参与水域上空二次有机气溶胶的形成。通过对藻类VOCs的种类、形成途径、诱导释放因素及其生态作用进行综述, 以期对藻类VOCs的研究有所帮助。     

Cellulose production by planktonic algae in lacustrine environments

Cellulose production by planktonic algae in a eutrophic pond and in an oligotrophic lake was estimated by comparing the amount of cellulose contained in intact algal cells with the amount of cellulose present in the water column. Cellulose contents of laboratory grown algal species representing the dominant cellulose producers were ranged from 2 to 39% of the total dry weight of cell mass, depending upon the species and stage of growth. The relative amounts of cellulose present in the water column ranged from 4 to 50% of the total dry weight of particulate matter.It was estimated that more than 30% of cellulose in the water column was actually contributed by the viable algal cells present during the algal bloom. Despite its algal origin, more cellulose was found in the water column than could be accounted for by the number of algal cells observed. The difference was due to the accumulation of cellulose from previous algal crops. This observation indicated that production of algal cellulose exceeded decomposition and little or no decomposition of cellulosic material took place in the water column.     

Grazing on filamentous algae by herbivorous zooplankton

SUMMARY. 1. Feeding experiments were conducted to examine filtering rates and selectivity of a variety of zooplankton taxa (including cladocerans, copepods and a rotifer) for filamentous diatoms, green and blue-green algae.
2. Most herbivores were capable of consuming some filamentous algae at rates similar to or higher than those on unicellular algae. Only feeding of Diaphanosoma brachyurum Liéven and Moina micrura Kurz seemed to be primarily limited by the filamentous morphology.
3. Filtering rates and selectivities of most herbivores were much higher for the diatom Melosira granulata angustissima Müller than for similarly sized blue-green algal filaments, indicating that chemical factors strongly influence consumption of filamentous algae.
4. The toxic blue-green algal filament Anabaena flos-aquae De Brébisson NRC 44–1 had a much strong inhibitory effect on zooplankton feeding than other filaments. The only herbivores that were not inhibited by this strain have been shown to be resistant to blue-green algal toxins, or strongly avoided consuming the blue-green alga. These results indicate that the inhibitory effect of filamentous algae is due more to toxic or noxious chemicals than to the filamentous morphology.
5. Selectivities of zooplankton for filamentous algae were largely independent of herbivore body size. The small-bodied cladoceran Bosmina longirostris Müller had the highest selectivities for filamentous algae.     

Degradation of urea by bacteria and algae in mass algal cultures.

Studies were conducted to determine the role of bacteria and algae in the degradation of urea in industrial waste waters. The microflora accompanying algae in continuous cultures on waste waters from the nitrogen fertilizers industry was found to include bacteria capable of intensive degradation of urea. Urea hydrolyzing bacteria are with time eliminated from the algal culture. This elimination can be attributed to algal metabolites which inhibit the development of sensitive bacteria. The Chlorella vulgaris strain used in the treatment of wast waters from the nitrogen fertilizers industry did not hydrolyse urea.     

Escherichia coli behavior in the presence of organic matter released by algae exposed to water treatment chemicals

When exposed to oxidation, algae release dissolved organic matter with significant carbohydrate (52%) and biodegradable (55 to 74%) fractions. This study examined whether algal organic matter (AOM) added in drinking water can compromise water biological stability by supporting bacterial survival. Escherichia coli (1.3 x 10(5) cells ml(-1)) was inoculated in sterile dechlorinated tap water supplemented with various qualities of organic substrate, such as the organic matter coming from chlorinated algae, ozonated algae, and acetate (model molecule) to add 0.2 +/- 0.1 mg of biodegradable dissolved organic carbon (BDOC) liter(-1). Despite equivalent levels of BDOC, E. coli behavior depended on the source of the added organic matter. The addition of AOM from chlorinated algae led to an E. coli growth equivalent to that in nonsupplemented tap water; the addition of AOM from ozonated algae allowed a 4- to 12-fold increase in E. coli proliferation compared to nonsupplemented tap water. Under our experimental conditions, 0.1 mg of algal BDOC was sufficient to support E. coli growth, whereas the 0.7 mg of BDOC liter(-1) initially present in drinking water and an additional 0.2 mg of BDOC acetate liter(-1) were not sufficient. Better maintenance of E. coli cultivability was also observed when AOM was added; cultivability was even increased after addition of AOM from ozonated algae. AOM, likely to be present in treatment plants during algal blooms, and thus potentially in the treated water may compromise water biological stability.     

Algae in urban drinking waters in N.E. Spain

Tap waters from Barcelona and several other locations in N.E. Spain were analyzed to determine the algal occurrence and to assess their probable origin and fate. In general, a low number of taxa (2–9) occurred per sample, while cell density was highly variable (from 20 to more than 1000 cells ml^-1). Green algae were usually the most abundant, most of the taxa being common in natural phytoplankton assemblages from mesotrophic or eutrophic waters. The proportion of planktonic to benthic taxa differed between samples, there being only one sample (Lérida) with a predominant planktonic composition. Analysis of treated water revealed that algae were not completely removed at the end of the treatment, meaning that a low number could reach the distribution network. Moreover, other organisms (flagellates) had their origin in storage water tanks. No seasonal pattern of occurrence was apparent since there were many occasional taxa, implying a lack of direct connection between natural populations and tap water algae. It is therefore suggested that algae can reach the distribution network by several possible origins. Algae were sometimes viable; culture experiments showed occasional growth in June, but not in August samples.
