植物对水中菲和芘的吸收

以菲和芘为多环芳烃（PAHs）代表物,采用水培体系研究了黑麦草（Lolium multiflorum Lam）对水中PAHs的吸收作用,重点研究了植物吸收菲和芘的时间动态.水中菲和芘起始浓度分别为1.00mg/L和0.12mg/L.0～288h内,黑麦草根和茎叶中菲和芘含量均先快速增加而后降低,积累量不断增大,植物根系和茎叶富集系数则先快速升高而后趋于稳定.茎叶中菲和芘含量、茎叶对菲和芘的富集系数比根低1～3数量级,积累量也明显小于根系.黑麦草根系对水中芘有更强的富集能力,其根系富集系数比菲大85%～179%;而其茎叶对菲的富集作用则略强.菲和芘在植物体内有明显的传导作用.0～288h,传导系数（TF）先显著升高而后趋于恒定;但实验条件下,菲和芘的TF值均很小,分别不高于0.031和0.009,且芘的TF值明显小于菲,表明供试植物对芘的传导能力更弱.     

植物CytP450和抗氧化酶对土壤低浓度菲、芘胁迫的响应

以小麦(Triticum acstivnm)为供试植物,草甸棕壤为供试土壤,以微粒体细胞色素P450及抗氧化酶SOD、POD和CAT酶活性为指标,进行了土壤中菲、芘单一及复合胁迫响应研究.结果初步表明,菲、芘胁迫引起植物体内解毒代谢和抗氧化防御酶反应.菲、芘单一胁迫浓度为1mg kg-1时对细胞色素P450产生显著诱导;4 mg kg-1时P450酶含量明显被抑制,表明低浓度菲、芘单一胁迫对植物代谢解毒系统产生损伤;而菲、芘复合1mg kg-1时P450酶含量明显被抑制,说明菲、芘复合胁迫对植物的代谢解毒具有协同毒性效应.土壤中菲、芘单一胁迫未引起SOD酶活性的明显改变,复合胁迫下SOD酶活性出现微弱下降;菲、芘单一胁迫对CAT和POD酶活性具有显著抑制作用;复合胁迫对CAT产生抑制作用,而POD酶活性并未对菲、芘复合产生增强毒性响应.研究从代谢解毒和抗氧化防御酶系统两方面,为土壤低浓度PAHs污染诊断提供了实验依据.     

AMF和PGPR联合修复菲和芘污染土壤的效应

丛枝菌根真菌（arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi,AMF）与根围促生细菌（plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria,PGPR）联合降解有毒有机物、修复污染土壤和促进植物生长的作用倍受关注。本试验旨在探究AMF与PGPR联合降解土壤中菲和芘的效应,以菲和芘1:1混合处理浓度各0、50mg/kg、100mg/kg和150mg/kg下对高羊茅Festuca elata接种AMF根内根孢囊霉Rhizophagus intraradices（Ri）、变形球囊霉Glomus versiforme（Gv）、PGPR荧光假单胞菌Pseudomonas fluorescens Ps2-6、芽孢杆菌Bacillus velezensis Ps3-2、Ri+Ps2-6、Ri+Ps3-2、Gv+Ps2-6、Gv+Ps3-2和不接种对照共36个处理。结果表明,供试AMF增加了PGPR的定殖数量;接种PGPR则显著提高AMF的侵染率。AMF、PGPR或AMF+PGPR处理均显著降低土壤中菲和芘含量,促进植物对土壤中菲和芘的吸收,显著提高高羊茅根系和叶片内的菲和芘含量。在土壤中菲和芘100mg/kg和150mg/kg水平下,Gv与Ps2-6及Ri与Ps2-6能相互促进对土壤中菲和芘的去除效应,其中接种Gv+Ps2-6组合处理的去除率最高,达到95%-98%,土壤中多酚氧化酶、脱氢酶和过氧化氢酶活性显著高于单接种处理和不接种对照,而酸性磷酸酶活性变化则表现为相反趋势。其中以Gv+Ps2-6组合处理的多酚氧化酶活性最高,为0.17mg/g,是不接种对照的1.9倍;脱氢酶和过氧化氢酶活性分别达到1.32µg/(g·h)和1.81mL/g;酸性磷酸酶活性则比不接种对照土壤降低27%-45%;易提取球囊霉素相关土壤蛋白含量和总球囊霉素相关土壤蛋白含量分别是不接种对照的1.6倍和1.5倍。     

沿阶草(Ophiopogon japanicus)对土壤中菲芘的修复作用

采用盆栽试验法,研究沿阶草对土壤中芘、菲的去除效果与修复机制.结果显示:在试验浓度范围(0～322mg · kg-1)内,植物-微生物系统对芘、菲的去除效果明显.种植沿阶草60d后,菲、芘去除率分别为77.58%～96.3%、65.25%～83.25%;平均去除率分别比对照1(加0.1%NaN3)高82.27%、72.73%,比对照2(无NaN3)高43.26%、46.27%.沿阶草能吸收积累土壤中的菲和芘,根部和茎叶部菲、芘含量随土壤中菲、芘浓度的提高而增大;生物浓缩系数随土壤中菲、芘含量的增加而减小,且根部大于茎叶部、芘大于菲.修复过程中,非生物因子、植物积累、植物代谢对菲、芘的去除率分别为6.61%、0.157%、6.54%和3.18%、1.21%、5.72%;微生物降解、植物-微生物间的交互作用对菲、芘的去除率分别为39.01%、26.47%和36.57%、39.34%.说明植物-微生物交互作用、微生物降解作用是土壤中菲、芘去除的主要原因.     

抑制剂和安全剂对高羊茅根中酶活性和菲代谢的影响

以高羊茅(Festuca arundinacea)为供试植物,利用水培体系研究了抑制剂和安全剂对植物根中过氧化物酶(POD)和多酚氧化酶(PPO)活性以及菲代谢的影响。供试安全剂为浓度0.3%的NaCl,抑制剂为浓度2.00 mg/L的Vc。结果表明,2.00 mg/L的Vc作用下,1—16d,高羊茅根的菲含量显著高于对照处理,而供试安全剂对植物根中菲含量的影响不显著。抑制剂作用下植物根部的PPO和POD活性显著降低;16d,抑制剂作用下的植物根部PPO和POD活性为对照组的1/6和1/9,表现出强抑制效应。而安全剂作用下植物根部PPO和POD活性则略高于对照组,但差异不显著（P＜0.05）。植物体内酶的初始活性是影响植物代谢PAHs菲的关键因素。抑制剂主要通过调节酶活性来影响根系代谢菲,其对植物根中PPO和POD活性的抑制效率与根部菲代谢抑制效率显著正相关。     

多环芳烃降解菌的筛选与降解能力测定

从本溪多环芳烃(PAHs)污染土壤中经富集培养筛选出8株PAHs降解菌,研究了8株菌及其等比例混合培养对菲、芘和苯并[a]芘的降解能力。结果表明,在28℃,培养基中菲、芘和苯并[a]芘的浓度分别为50、50和5mg·L-1的复合底物条件下,培养28d后,菌株B3的降解效果最好,对菲、芘和苯并[a]芘的降解率分别为88.4%、54.0%和68.4%,8株菌的混合培养对菲、芘和苯并[a]芘的降解率分别为87.7%、35.3%和42.0%;经生理生化实验和16SrRNA序列比对,初步鉴定B3菌为假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas sp.)。     

三种观赏植物对土壤中镉的富集特征研究

以3种观赏植物海芋、肾蕨和蟛蜞菊为试材进行盆栽试验,研究其对土壤重金属镉的富集特征。结果表明：3种观赏植物对镉有不同的富集能力,其地上部和地下部富集的镉与土壤的镉含量呈显著正相关（r＞0.9）。蟛蜞菊地上部吸收富集能力最大,其次是海芋,肾蕨最弱;而海芋地下部镉含量最高,其次是肾蕨,蟛蜞菊最少。当土壤镉含量在0～120 mg/kg范围内,三种观赏植物根的富集系数都大于1,说明3种观赏植物根系对镉具有富集能力。3种植物中只有蟛蜞菊地上部和地下部的富集系数都大于1,说明其具有超积累植物的富集系数特征。因此,蟛蜞菊对重金属镉污染的土壤修复有一定的应用潜力。     

蚯蚓对细菌降解土壤中菲的作用

通过30d室内培养试验,分别研究了接种蚯蚓(E)、细菌(B)以及同时接种细菌和蚯蚓(BE)对土壤中菲降解的影响.结果表明: 在土壤中菲的初始污染浓度为50 mg*kg-1的条件下,各处理间菲的降解率差异显著,其降解率的大小顺序依次为:BE》B》E》CK(对照); 在150 mg*kg-1菲的初始污染浓度下,BE处理中菲的降解率高达98.86%,显著高于CK和E处理.B处理中细菌的双加氧酶活性在3种菲初始污染浓度下没有显著差异,而BE处理中双加氧酶的活性随着土壤中菲的初始污染浓度的升高而增加.在相同菲污染浓度下BE处理中蚯蚓体内的菲含量明显高于E处理.表明蚯蚓能够通过生物富集作用降低土壤中菲的浓度,而蚯蚓与细菌的相互作用能够进一步促进土壤中菲的降解.

以无植物组处理为对照,采用盆栽试验方式探讨不同Cd浓度胁迫条件下香根草根际土壤中重金属Cd的积累、迁移及转化特征。土壤Cd处理设4个浓度梯度,分别为0、2、20、80 mg/kg土壤干重。结果表明:(1)香根草可以显著降低土壤中生物有效态Cd和总Cd含量。(2)香根草各部分Cd积累量随处理浓度的增加和处理时间的延长而增加,90 d时80 mg/kg处理组地上部分和根的Cd积累量分别高达180.42 mg/kg和241.54 mg/kg。(3)各浓度Cd处理下,富集系数随着Cd处理浓度的增加而显著降低,随处理时间的延长而升高。(4)香根草地上部分Cd含量小于根部,各处理转移系数均小于1。随着处理时间的延长,中低浓度处理组的转移系数稍有降低,高浓度处理组的转移系数则显著上升。(5)种植香根草使其根际土中残渣态的Cd转化为生物有效态Cd,提高Cd清除效率。研究结果表明,香根草能够有效地吸收土壤中的Cd,降低土壤中总Cd含量,提高土壤安全性,可作为Cd污染地区植物修复的备选物种。     

德国鸢尾对Cd胁迫的生理生态响应及积累特性

通过盆栽研究了Cd胁迫下德国鸢尾的生长状况、生态效应、生理特性及吸收和富集Cd的能力.结果表明:德国鸢尾对小于5 mg/kg的Cd有较强的耐性,适用于城区土壤修复;Cd浓度大于5 mg/kg时抑制德国鸢尾生长,降低了其生态效应.随着Cd浓度的增大,德国鸢尾根系活力、叶绿素含量和含水量逐渐降低,游离脯氨酸和可溶性糖含量先升高后降低,细胞膜透性逐渐升高.Cd在德国鸢尾体内分布为根系＞地上部分,随着Cd浓度的增大,德国鸢尾根系和地上部分Cd积累浓度逐渐升高、富集系数和转运系数逐渐降低;Cd浓度为20 mg/kg时德国鸢尾对Cd的积累量最大,为2.122 mg/plant.     

Partitioning of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons between plant roots and water

Partition of phenanthrene between water and roots was determined for 13 plant species using a batch equilibration technique. Partition coefficients (K _rt) from 734 to 2,564 L/kg were measured. A simple model to estimate the partition of organic contaminants between roots and water was developed based on the composition of plant roots and the 1-octanol/water partitioning coefficient. The estimates were close to the observed results, with differences of < 14%. The partition coefficients of phenanthrene by root cell walls were 13–84% greater than sorption by the corresponding roots. The cell wall fraction—the dominant fraction of root organic components—was identified as the primary domain for partition of phenanthrene. The measured hydroponic uptake of phenanthrene into roots was always less than phenanthrene partition by plant roots. A modified sorption model containing a quasi-equilibrium factor (α_pt) could reasonably predict hydroponic uptake by plant roots. The results obtained from this study provide insights into partition of highly lipophilic organic chemicals in roots, and provide convenient methods to estimate this partition as well as uptake of such chemicals in root–water systems.

Distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in subcellular root tissues of ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.)

Background

Because of the increasing quantity and high toxicity to humans of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the environment, several bioremediation mechanisms and protocols have been investigated to restore PAH-contaminated sites. The transport of organic contaminants among plant cells via tissues and their partition in roots, stalks, and leaves resulting from transpiration and lipid content have been extensively investigated. However, information about PAH distributions in intracellular tissues is lacking, thus limiting the further development of a mechanism-based phytoremediation strategy to improve treatment efficiency.

Results

Pyrene exhibited higher uptake and was more recalcitrant to metabolism in ryegrass roots than was phenanthrene. The kinetic processes of uptake from ryegrass culture medium revealed that these two PAHs were first adsorbed onto root cell walls, and they then penetrated cell membranes and were distributed in intracellular organelle fractions. At the beginning of uptake (< 50 h), adsorption to cell walls dominated the subcellular partitioning of the PAHs. After 96 h of uptake, the subcellular partition of PAHs approached a stable state in the plant water system, with the proportion of PAH distributed in subcellular fractions being controlled by the lipid contents of each component. Phenanthrene and pyrene primarily accumulated in plant root cell walls and organelles, with about 45% of PAHs in each of these two fractions, and the remainder was retained in the dissolved fraction of the cells. Because of its higher lipophilicity, pyrene displayed greater accumulation factors in subcellular walls and organelle fractions than did phenanthrene.

Conclusions

Transpiration and the lipid content of root cell fractions are the main drivers of the subcellular partition of PAHs in roots. Initially, PAHs adsorb to plant cell walls, and they then gradually diffuse into subcellular fractions of tissues. The lipid content of intracellular components determines the accumulation of lipophilic compounds, and the diffusion rate is related to the concentration gradient established between cell walls and cell organelles. Our results offer insights into the transport mechanisms of PAHs in ryegrass roots and their diffusion in root cells.     

表面活性剂对小麦吸收多环芳烃(PAHs)的影响

Colonization on Root Surface by a Phenanthrene-Degrading Endophytic Bacterium and Its Application for Reducing Plant Phenanthrene Contamination

A phenanthrene-degrading endophytic bacterium, Pn2, was isolated from Alopecurus aequalis Sobol grown in soils contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Based on morphology, physiological characteristics and the 16S rRNA gene sequence, it was identified as Massilia sp. Strain Pn2 could degrade more than 95% of the phenanthrene (150 mg·L⁻¹) in a minimal salts medium (MSM) within 48 hours at an initial pH of 7.0 and a temperature of 30°C. Pn2 could grow well on the MSM plates with a series of other PAHs, including naphthalene, acenaphthene, anthracene and pyrene, and degrade them to different degrees. Pn2 could also colonize the root surface of ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam), invade its internal root tissues and translocate into the plant shoot. When treated with the endophyte Pn2 under hydroponic growth conditions with 2 mg·L⁻¹ of phenanthrene in the Hoagland solution, the phenanthrene concentrations in ryegrass roots and shoots were reduced by 54% and 57%, respectively, compared with the endophyte-free treatment. Strain Pn2 could be a novel and useful bacterial resource for eliminating plant PAH contamination in polluted environments by degrading the PAHs inside plants. Furthermore, we provide new perspectives on the control of the plant uptake of PAHs via endophytic bacteria.     

芘对黑麦草根系几种低分子量有机分泌物的影响

植物根系释放分泌物与有机污染物的植物修复机制密切相关,研究具有有机污染物修复潜力植物在污染胁迫条件下的根系分泌物特征有助于揭示其修复机制.以多环芳烃修复研究中常用的黑麦草为材料(Lolium perenneL.)为材料,在营养液栽培方式下研究了在芘胁迫处理下,黑麦草根系几种低分子量有机物分泌特征.结果表明,黑麦草对芘具有较强的耐受能力,芘胁迫处理下,生物量无显著变化.黑麦草根系分泌的低分子量有机酸主要为草酸.3、6 mg/L和9 mg/L芘胁迫处理下,低分子量有机酸的组成无明显变化,但含量随芘胁迫处理浓度上升而显著增加(P＜0.05);总糖分泌量随着芘胁迫处理浓度升高而呈现先略微上升后下降的趋势,相对高峰值出现在芘胁迫处理浓度3 mg/L,但差异不显著;氨基酸分泌总量随着芘胁迫处理浓度的增加而显著增多,芘胁迫浓度在3、6 mg/L和9 mg/L时,根系氨基酸的分泌总量分别是空白的1.37、2.02倍和2.65倍,但根系分泌的氨基酸组成无明显变化,19种常见氨基酸分泌的数量变化情况却不相同,分泌量总体均随着芘胁迫处理浓度的提高而增加,其中苏氨酸、丝氨酸、脯氨酸、甘氨酸、丙氨酸、亮氨酸、组氨酸和鸟氨酸的分泌量显著增多,差异显著(P＜0.05).     

Utilizing pyrene-degrading endophytic bacteria to reduce the risk of plant pyrene contamination

Aims

Endophytic bacteria are ubiquitous in plants, but little information is available on the influence of endophytic bacteria on the uptake and metabolism of PAH by plants. Thus, we seek to investigate whether the colonization of a target plant by a PAH-degrading endophytic bacterium would improve the PAH metabolism of the plant and reduce the risk of plant PAH contamination.

Methods

A pyrene-degrading endophyte was isolated from PAH-contaminated plants using enrichment culture. After root inoculation with the isolated bacterium, greenhouse container experiments were conducted. Pyrene residues in soil and plant samples were analyzed by HPLC.

Results

A pyrene-degrading endophytic bacterium, Staphylococcus sp. BJ06, was isolated from Alopecurus aequalis and could degrade 56.0 % of pyrene (50 mg?·?L^?1) within 15 days. BJ06 grew and degraded pyrene efficiently under environmental conditions. The bacterium significantly promoted ryegrass growth and pyrene removal from contaminated soil in container experiments. The pyrene concentrations in ryegrass roots and shoots in endophyte-inoculated planted soil were reduced by 31.01 % and 44.22 %, respectively, compared with endophyte-free planted soil.

Conclusions

We have provided new perspectives on the regulation and control of plant uptake of organic contaminants with endophytic bacteria. The results of this study will be valuable to risk assessments of plant PAH contamination.
