取代脲类除草剂的微生物降解

取代脲类除草剂主要用来防除一年生禾本科杂草和阔叶杂草,自20世纪中期推入市场以来,在世界范围内被广泛使用,已成为重要的除草剂之一。随着取代脲类除草剂的持续施用,其在环境中的残留严重超标,危害日益凸显。因此,取代脲类除草剂在环境中的吸附、迁移和降解等行为备受关注。研究表明细菌降解N,N-二甲基取代脲类除草剂主要是通过连续脱甲基作用后断脲桥降解,而降解N-甲氧基-N-甲基取代脲类除草剂是通过脲桥的直接断裂。真菌降解取代脲类除草剂的途径则较为复杂,尚需进一步阐明。本文综述了近年来分离筛选的取代脲类除草剂降解菌株及其降解途径的最新研究进展,为取代脲类除草剂污染环境的生物修复研究提供参考。

Genetic and biochemical evidence for multiple forms of acetolactate synthase in Nicotiana tabacum

Summary Mutations conferring resistance to sulfonylurea herbicides have been identified at two unlinked genetic loci (SuRA and SuRB) in Nicotiana tabacum. A mutation (S4) residing at the SuRB locus causes production of an altered form of acetolactate synthase (ALS) that is insensitive to inhibition by sulfonylurea herbicides and that constitutes approximately 50% of total ALS activity. Another mutation (C3) at the SuRA locus similarly results in herbicide resistance of approximately half of the total ALS activity. These results suggest that N. tabacum possesses at least two isozymic forms of ALS. The relative and absolute amounts of the isozymes are affected by a mutation that segregates independently of C3.     

Differential effects of the sulfonylurea herbicides chlorsulfuron and sulfometuron methyl on microorganisms

The sulfonylurea herbicides exert their effects on cells via their inhibition of the acetohydroxy acid synthase (AHS) enzymes. Although chlorsulfuron and sulfometuron methyl often affected microbial growth differently their effects on the AHS activities of toluenised cells were similar. Sulfometuron methyl was always a more potent inhibitor than chlorsulfuron. We have postulated that sulfometuron methyl penetrated into microbial cells more readily then did chlorsulfuron. The effect of the herbicides on microbial growth was altered by the composition of the medium and in particular by valine or valine plus isoleucine. Different microorganisms had different complements of AHS isoenzymes which together with differences in permeability were the most likely explanations for the different responses observed. It was pointed out that application of these sulfonylurea herbicides would have significant effects on the microbial ecological balance of soil, and particularly so in alkaline soils. The consequences would be most evident in agricultural situations where the microbial population played an important role in maximising the productivity of crops.     

Characterization of transgenic sulfonylurea-resistant flax (Linum usitatissimum)

Summary Fourteen transgenic flax (Linum usitatissimum) lines, carrying a mutant Arabidopsis acetolactate synthase (ALS) gene selected for resistance to chlorsulfuron, were characterized for resistance to two sulfonylurea herbicides. Progeny of 10 of the 14 lines segregated in a ratio of 3 resistant to 1 susceptible, indicating a single insertion. Progeny of 1 line segregated in a 151 ratio, indicating two insertions of the ALS gene at independent loci. Progeny from 3 lines did not segregate in a Mendelian fashion and were likely the products of chimeric shoots. Resistance to chlorsulfuron was stably inherited in all lines. At the enzyme level, the transgenic lines were 2.5 to more than 60 times more resistant to chlorsulfuron than the parental lines. The transgenic lines were 25–260 times more resistant to chlorsulfuron than the parental lines in root growth experiments and demonstrated resistance when grown in soil treated with 20 g ha^-1 chlorsulfuron. The lines demonstrated less resistance to metsulfuron methyl; in root growth experiments, the transgenic lines were only 1.6–4.8 times more resistant to metsulfuron methyl than the parental lines. Resistance was demonstrated in the field at half (2.25 g ha^-1) and full (4.5 g ha^-1) rates of metsulfuron methyl.     

Action of bicarbonate and Photosystem 2 inhibiting herbicides on electron transport in pea grana and in thylakoids of a blue-green alga

Bicarbonate (or carbon dioxide) is required for electron transport in isolated broken pea chloroplasts. The site of action of the bicarbonate ion is between the primary electron acceptor of Photosystem 2, Q, and the plastoquinone pool. After trypsin treatment the Hill reaction with ferricyanide does not require bicarbonate. Photosystem 2 inhibiting herbicides act also at this site. Therefore, a possible interaction of bicarbonate and these herbicides in their effect on photosynthetic electron transport was studied.
The reciprocal of the Hill reaction rate in CO₂-depleted chloroplasts was plotted against the reciprocal of added bicarbonate concentration in the absence and in the presence of 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (DCMU), 2-methoxy-4,6-bis (ethylamino)-1,3,5-triazine (simeton) or 4,6-dinitro- o -cresol (DNOC). From these Lineweaver-Burk plots we concluded that DCMU and simeton inhibit both bicarbonate binding and V_max. There is a purely competitive inhibition of bicarbonate binding by DNOC. We suggest that DNOC may exert its inhibition of electron transport by removing bicarbonate from its binding site.
In isolated thylakoid membranes of Synechococcus leopoliensis we did not find a bicarbonate effect nor inhibition by DNOC after Q, indicating that in the thylakoids of this blue-green alga the binding site for bicarbonate and DNOC between Q and plastoquinone is absent.     

Mechanical resistance of wheat straw after incubation in cultures of ruminal cellulolytic microorganisms

The mechanical properties of wheat straw fragments were measured using tensile and shear tests before and after incubation in pure cultures of the rumen fungus Neocallimastix frontalis MCH3, in pure cultures of the rumen cellulolytic bacteria Fibrobacter succinogenes S85 and Ruminococcus flavefaciens 007 and in co-cultures associating the fungus with each of the two bacterial species.

N. frontalis considerably reduced the tensile strength of the straw; on the contrary R. flavefaciens increased it and F. succinogenes did not affect it. In co-cultures, F. succinogenes and N. frontalis interacted synergistically to weaken straw resistance, whereas R. flavefaciens inhibited the fungal action. The shear test also revealed that physical and mechanical properties were strongly affected by the action of the three microorganisms. After six days of incubation the straws resistance to shearing was lower after incubation with N. frontalis or R. flavefaciens than in the presence of F. succinogenes. No synergism or antagonism between microorganisms was observed in the shear test.

These results thus clearly demonstrate a specific action of the three rumen microorganisms in physical degradation of plant material.

Augmentation of a Microbial Consortium for Enhanced Polylactide (PLA) Degradation

Bioplastics are eco-friendly and derived from renewable biomass sources. Innovation in recycling methods will tackle some of the critical issues facing the acceptance of bioplastics. Polylactic acid (PLA) is the commonly used and well-studied bioplastic that is presumed to be biodegradable. Considering their demand and use in near future, exploration for microbes capable of bioplastic degradation has high potential. Four PLA degrading strains were isolated and identified as Penicillium chrysogenum, Cladosporium sphaerospermum, Serratia marcescens and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa. A consortium of above strains degraded 44 % (w/w) PLA in 30 days time in laboratory conditions. Subsequently, the microbial consortium employed effectively for PLA composting.
