NaCl胁迫对马齿苋光合作用及叶绿素荧光特性的影响

以马齿苋为材料,采用温室盆栽法研究了14d NaCl胁迫处理对其幼苗生长、光合作用和叶绿素荧光特性的影响。结果表明：(1) 马齿苋幼苗的鲜重和株高在25mmol?L-1Nacl胁迫时与对照无显著差异,但其随着NaCl浓度的继续增加均显著降低,且其生物量受到的抑制早于株高。(2) NaCl胁迫下,马齿苋幼苗叶片净光合速率(Pn)降低,胞间二氧化碳(Ci)浓度增大,且两者的变化幅度随着NaCl浓度增加而增大。(3) NaCl胁迫下,马齿苋幼苗叶片的初始荧光(Fo)、最大荧光(Fm)、可变荧光(Fv)、恒态荧光(Fs)、恒态荧光与初始荧光差值(△Fo)、PSⅡ潜在光化学效率( Fv/Fo ) 和PSⅡ最大光化学效率( Fv/Fm) 均降低,叶片光化学荧光猝灭系数(qP) 也在NaCl胁迫下降低,而非光化学荧光猝灭系数(NPQ)则上升;在0-50 mmol?L-1NaCl胁迫下,幼苗叶片各荧光参数下降幅度小于其他高浓度NaCl胁迫。可见,在NaCl胁迫条件下,马齿苋幼苗叶片的光合作用受光抑制伤害,但其在低浓度NaCl下能够较多地将光能用于光化学反应,光抑制程度较低,保持了较高的净光合速率,明显减轻盐胁迫对植株生长的影响,表现出一定的耐盐性。     

镉胁迫对不同甘蓝基因型光合特性和养分吸收的影响

以2个耐镉(Cd)性不同的甘蓝品种为材料,研究了不同Cd浓度(0、20、50、100μmol.L-1)对甘蓝植株生长、叶片光合特性和养分吸收的影响.结果表明:Cd敏感品种在低浓度Cd(20μmol.L-1)处理下生长受到明显抑制,叶片净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)、PSⅡ光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ光合电子传递量子效率(ΦPSⅡ)及地上部、根系干质量显著降低;Cd耐性品种在高浓度Cd(50和100μmol.L-1)处理下生长和光合特性受到显著影响;Cd胁迫降低了甘蓝叶片叶绿素a和b含量,尤其对叶绿素a的影响较大,进而抑制了叶片光合能力.Cd胁迫显著降低了植株对Mn的吸收,抑制了Mg和Fe从根部向地上部的转运,且Cd敏感品种受抑制幅度更大;Cd胁迫促进了Cd耐性品种对P和S的吸收,而Cd敏感品种相反.因此,Cd胁迫下甘蓝敏感品种叶片Mn、Fe、Mg、S和P含量的降低是影响其叶片光合作用,进而抑制植株生长的重要生理原因.     

不同酸雨胁迫梯度和处理方式对杨梅幼苗叶绿素荧光特性的影响

在重度酸雨(p H 2.5)、中度酸雨(p H 4.0)和轻度酸雨(p H 5.6)3个酸雨梯度下,研究全淋处理、土壤处理和地上处理3种酸雨胁迫方式对杨梅(Myrica rubra)幼苗叶绿素荧光参数的影响。结果表明:胁迫6个月时间内,杨梅相对叶绿素含量(SPAD)、PSⅡ原初光能转化效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ潜在活性(Fv/Fo)、PSⅡ实际光化学量子产量(Yield)表现为:土壤处理地上处理全淋处理,当胁迫6个月以上,表现为地上处理土壤处理全淋处理,可见全淋处理抑制作用最强,土壤处理和地上处理具有阶段性,前期地上处理抑制作用较强,后期土壤处理抑制作用较强。重度酸雨胁迫下,各处理叶绿素荧光参数值均低于对照组,中度和轻度酸雨胁迫下除全淋处理外,则高于对照组,表现出杨梅对酸雨有较强的耐受性,一定浓度的酸雨能增加杨梅叶绿素荧光参数指标。夏季和秋季的Fv/Fm、Fv/Fo、Yield值较高,冬季和春季的值较低;土壤处理、地上处理、全淋处理的Fv/Fm和Fv/Fo存在显著差异。     

外源水杨酸对镉胁迫甜瓜幼苗生长与光合气体交换和叶绿素荧光特性的影响

以甜瓜品种‘哈密绿’为试验材料,采用基质栽培方式,研究了10~200μmol·L-1外源水杨酸(SA)对镉胁迫(100mg·L-1 Cd2+)下甜瓜幼苗生长、叶绿素含量、光合气体交换参数和叶绿素荧光参数的影响,以探讨外源SA调控Cd2+胁迫伤害的可行性。结果显示:Cd2+胁迫能显著影响甜瓜幼苗的生长和相关光合指标。适宜浓度外源SA能不同程度缓解甜瓜幼苗所受Cd2+胁迫伤害,并以100μmol·L-1 SA处理效果最好,其显著促进了幼苗生长,提高了叶片叶绿素含量、净光合速率(Pn)、蒸腾速率(Tr)和气孔导度(Gs),以及PSⅡ最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ天线转化效率(Fv′/Fm′)、实际光化学效率(ФPSⅡ)、光化学荧光猝灭系数(qP)和光化学反应能量(P);显著降低了初始荧光(F0)、非光化学荧光猝灭系数(NPQ)、天线热耗散能量(D)和非光化学反应耗散能量(E)。研究表明,外源SA缓解甜瓜幼苗Cd2+胁迫伤害具有剂量效应,以100μmol·L-1 SA的效果最好,有利于甜瓜幼苗在Cd2+胁迫下光合作用的维持,提高光合电子传递效率和对光能的捕获与转换,降低Cd2+胁迫对植物的损伤,从而促进生长。     

NaCl胁迫对马齿苋光合作用及叶绿素荧光特性的影响

以马齿苋为材料,采用温室盆栽法研究了14 d NaCl胁迫处理对其幼苗生长、光合作用和叶绿素荧光特性的影响.结果显示:(1)马齿苋幼苗的鲜重和株高在25 mmol·L-1 NaCl胁迫时与对照无显著差异,但其随着NaCl浓度的继续增加均显著降低,且其生物量受到的抑制早于株高.(2) NaCl胁迫下,马齿苋幼苗叶片净光合速率(Pn)降低,胞间二氧化碳浓度(C1)增大,且两者的变化幅度随着NaCl浓度增加而增大.(3)NaCl胁迫下,马齿苋幼苗叶片的初始荧光(F0)、最大荧光(Fm)、可变荧光(Fv)、恒态荧光(Fs)、恒态荧光与初始荧光差值(△F0)、PSⅡ潜在光化学效率(Fv/Fo)和PSⅡ最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)均降低,叶片光化学荧光猝灭系数(qP)也在NaCl胁迫下降低,而非光化学荧光猝灭系数(NPQ)则上升;在0～50 mmol·L-1NaCl胁迫下,幼苗叶片各荧光参数下降幅度小于其他高浓度NaCl胁迫.研究表明,在NaCl胁迫条件下,马齿苋幼苗叶片的光合作用受光抑制伤害,但在低浓度NaCl下能够较多地将光能用于光化学反应,光抑制程度较低,保持了较高的净光合速率,明显减轻盐胁迫对植株生长的影响,表现出一定的耐盐性.     

水分胁迫对不同抗旱类型冬小麦幼苗叶绿素荧光参数的影响

在人工气候室水培条件下,选用3个不同抗旱类型的冬小麦品种,研究了水分胁迫对冬小麦幼苗叶绿素荧光参数的影响。结果表明：水分胁迫下,冬小麦幼苗可变荧光(Fv)、最大荧光(Fm)、可变荧光与最大荧光比(Fv／Fm)、可变荧光与初始荧光比(Fv／Fo)、光化学淬灭系数(qF)均降低;而初始荧光(Fo)与非光化学淬灭系数(qNP)则升高,说明光系统Ⅱ(PSⅡ)受到了伤害,使得PSⅡ原初光能转换效率(Fv／Fm)、PSⅡ潜在活性(Fv／Fo)降低;光合电子传递、光合原初反应过程受到抑制,起光保护作用的热耗散提高。但水分胁迫下品种间各参数变化幅度不同。除qNF外,其余各参数均为抗旱性越强降低幅度越小,而qNF则升高幅度越大。说明水分胁迫对冬小麦幼苗叶绿素荧光参数的影响与其抗旱性密切相关。     

夜间低温后日间光照对海桐和榕树叶片的光抑制以及光系统Ⅱ功能的影响

夜间低温导致海桐和榕树叶片光系统Ⅱ(PSⅡ)最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ光合电子传递量子效率(φPSⅡ)、天线转化效率(F'v'/Fm')、非光化学猝灭系数(NPQ)降低,其后日间光照先引起海桐叶片Fv//Fm、ΦPSⅡ、F'v'/Fm'稍微降低,其后又逐渐得到恢复,但NPQ却表现出相反趋势;夜间低温及随后的日间光照并未对海桐叶片光化学猝灭系数(qP)和初始荧光强度(Fo)产生影响.夜间低温后日间光照进一步引起榕树叶片Fv/Fm、ΦPSⅡ、Fv'/F'm、qp、NPQ下降,在午后光照减弱后仍不能得到恢复.     

外源亚精胺对盐胁迫下黄瓜幼苗光合作用的影响

采用营养液栽培,研究了外源亚精胺对50mmol·L-1NaCl胁迫下黄瓜幼苗植株生长、叶片叶绿素含量、光合气体交换参数和叶绿素荧光参数(PSⅡ光化学效率)的影响。结果表明:NaCl胁迫显著降低了黄瓜植株生长量、净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)、胞间CO2浓度(Ci)(P<0.05),但对PSⅡ实际光化学效率(ФPSⅡ)、光化学淬灭(qP)、有效光化学效率(Fv′/Fm′)、非光化学淬灭(qN)和PSⅡ最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)无显著影响(P>0.05);外源亚精胺显著提高了盐胁迫下黄瓜植株生长量、叶绿素含量、净光合速率、气孔导度、胞间CO2浓度,增加了ФPSⅡ、qP、Fv′/Fm′,降低了qN(P<0.05);外源亚精胺对Fv/Fm影响不显著(P>0.05)。外源施加亚精胺可增强盐胁迫下黄瓜植株的光合能力,主要是由于减弱了盐胁迫对植株的气孔限制,但对PSⅡ实际光化学效率影响较小,且叶面喷施比根施处理对改善盐胁迫下植株的生长和光合作用更有效。     

五节芒不同种群对Cd污染胁迫的光合生理响应

通过盆栽模拟试验,以分别来自粤北大宝山矿区和惠州博罗非矿区的两个五节芒种群为试验材料,比较研究了两个种群在Cd胁迫下的气体交换参数、叶绿素荧光特性、光合色素含量和叶绿体超微结构变化的差异。结果表明:(1)Cd胁迫下五节芒两种群叶片净光合速率(Pn)、蒸腾速率(E)、气孔导度(Gs)、胞间二氧化碳浓度(Ci)、叶绿素含量(Chl)都有不同幅度的下降;叶绿体超微结构遭到破坏。矿区种群随Cd胁迫程度的加深,净光合速率下降较慢,叶绿体的外形及基粒结构受到的影响较小。(2)轻度Cd胁迫下气孔限制是五节芒非矿区种群Pn降低的主要因素,中度和重度Cd胁迫下非气孔限制是Pn降低的主要因素。(3)Cd胁迫下五节芒两种群PSⅡ反应中心最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ潜在活性(Fv/Fo)、PSⅡ有效光化学效率Fv′/Fm′均有所下降。总体上矿区种群降幅较小,PSⅡ利用光能的能力及PSⅡ的潜在活性均较强。PSⅡ光化学猝灭系数(qP)、非光化学猝灭系数(NPQ)的变化表现为Cd胁迫下两种群qP值降低、NPQ值升高,总体上抗性强的矿区种群qP降低的幅度低且NPQ升高幅度大。随着Cd胁迫浓度增加,矿区种群实际光化学反应效率(ΦPSⅡ)和电子传递速率(ETR)变化幅度不大,而非矿区种群显著下降,表明矿区种群PSⅡ反应中心电子传递活性受到的影响小,光合机构的损伤程度低。研究表明,五节芒矿区种群对重金属Cd有较强的耐受能力,适合作为金属矿区植被恢复建设的禾本科先锋物种。     

不同胁迫处理对刺栲叶片叶绿素a荧光的影响

探讨了光强、温度和水分胁迫对刺栲(Castanopsis hystrix)体叶片叶绿素a荧光特征的影响,由此了解它的基本生物学特性。结果表明:(1)强光(1 300μmol.m-2.s-1左右)未胁迫时下降6.1%,表现轻微光抑制;(2)黑暗下低温(4℃,72 h)处理后电子传递速率下降较少(21.1%),初始荧光Fo保持稳定;与25℃对照相比,Fv/Fo和Fv/Fm无显著变化,表明黑暗下零上低温对PSⅡ潜在活性及光化学效率影响较小;(3)高温(40℃)胁迫显著影响了PSⅡ反应中心活性,ETR,Fv/Fm和Fv/Fo下降在处理2 h后达到极显著水平(p<0.01),Fo上升在处理4 h后也达到显著水平(p<0.05);(4)PEG诱导的水分胁迫严重影响了其光合机构活性,表现在无论与处理前比较、还是与耐旱种降真香(Acronychia pedunculata)的比较,其Fo上升和Fv/Fm、Fv/Fo下降都达到显著水平,表明其不耐干旱。     

Incorporation of cadmium into proteins in a cadmium tolerant fungi

Aspergillus carbonarius and a strain of Penicillium, a cadmium tolerant fungi, are able to metabolize cadmium chloride up to 2% (w/v). Their amino acids analysis on cadmium free and cadmium chloride containing media indicated certain disorders in their metabolic activities. Cystathionine was only detected in both fungi in the presence of cadmium chloride. However, cadmium was incorporated into several types of low and high molecular weight proteins. The amino acids hydrolyzates of a cadmium containing protein are characterized by the presence of high levels of sulfur amino acids; cysteine and methionine. Ethylasparagine was detected in the hydrolyzate of that cadmium containing protein as well.     

Phytoextraction of cadmium with Thlaspi caerulescens

The in situ phytoextraction of cadmium from soils can only be achieved using plants that are both tolerant to high Cd concentrations and able to extract sufficient amounts of the metal. However, very few plant species are capable of remediating Cd polluted soils in a reasonable time frame. This paper aims to show that the population of the hyperaccumulator Thlaspi caerulescens J. & C. Presl. from Viviez (south of France), which has a high Cd-accumulating capability, is an efficient tool to remove Cd from contaminated soils. Roots of T. caerulescensViviez proliferate in hot spots of metals in soils which is particularly advantageous because of heterogeneity of the distribution of metal in polluted soils. Isotopic techniques showed that plants from this population acquire Cd from the same pools as non-accumulating species, but that it was much more efficient than non-hyperaccumulators at removing the metal from the soil labile pool. This is due: to (i) a specific rooting strategy, and (ii) a high uptake rate resulting from the existence in this population of Cd-specific transport channels or carriers in the root membrane. Growth and overall extraction can be improved with appropriate N fertilisation, supplied either as mineral fertilisers or uncontaminated sewage sludge. Selecting bigger plants is possible from within a suitable Cd-accumulating population to improve the phytoextraction process. Growing the Cd-accumulating populations results in a reduction in the availability of Cd and Zn as shown with field and lysimeter experiments conducted for several years. As a result, on a practical aspect, Cd hyperaccumulating populations of T. caerulescens may be used as a tool to efficiently reduce the availability of Cd in soils, providing appropriate populations are used.     

Accumulation of cadmium by immobilizedZoogloea ramigera 115

Summary Zoogloea ramigera 115 was immobilized into beads of calcium-alginate and placed into batch air-bubbled column reactors. In the absence of any added nutrients the immobilized bacterium adsorbed Cd from solutions containing levels of 2 and 20 g ml^–1 per day, over a period of 21 and 20 days, respectively. Adsorption of Cd from solutions containing 20 g ml^–1 Cd was better than 90% for 16 days. Beads treated with Cd at 2 g ml^–1 never adsorbed less than 95% of the metal. Alginate adsorbed Cd as well, but inclusion of cells changed the effectiveness of adsorption. Of a 250 g ml^–1 Cd solution, alginate adsorbed 70.4% Cd in 60 min whereas alginate plus cells adsorbed 90.5% in the same time span. Temperature had no effect on adsorption by immobilized cells at levels of 2 and 10 g ml^–1 Cd. However at higher concentrations, binding was enhanced as temperature increased.Z. ramigera beads were stable during all treatments and for prolonged periods of time (21 days).     

Effects of cadmium accumulation on growth and respiration of a cadmium-sensitive strain of Bacillus subtilis and a selected cadmium resistant mutant

The effects of cadmium on the growth and respiration of two strains of Bacillus subtilis are compared to the accumulation of Cd by viable and cyanide-killed cells, protoplasts and cell fractions of the strains. Growth and respiration of strain 1A1 were significantly inhibited at 10g Cd²⁺/ml while the growth and respiration of strain 1A1R, a selected mutant of 1A1, were only slightly affected. Similarly, 1A1R protoplasts were more resistant to Cd than were 1A1 protoplasts. The differential resistance of the strains correlates with the accumulation of Cd by the two strains, with 1A1 accumulating approximately 10 times the level of Cd after a 4 h exposure to 1 g Cd²⁺/ml. The distributions of Cd throughout the cells, however, were similar between strains. Based on the accumulation of Cd by cyanide-killed protoplasts, uptake of Cd by 1A1 appears to be an active process, while for 1A1R, Cd accumulation is independent of protoplast viability.Non-standard abbreviations SMM Subtilis Minimal Medium - AAS Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry - TSA Trypticase Soy Agar - PCA Plate Count Agar - INT 2-p-iodophenyl-3-p-nitrophenyl-5-phenyl-2H tetrazolium chloride - dd H₂O double distilled demineralized water - OD Optical Density     

土壤镉胁迫对田七体内镉分布及富集特性影响

田七(Panax notoginseng)是我国的一种传统珍贵的草本药用植物,其重金属污染问题已经引起广泛关注。为了分析田七不同部位对镉毒害的响应,明确不同浓度镉污染对田七体内镉分布的基本特征以及不同部位的富集特性,以揭示镉胁迫对田七不同部位的影响机制及富集转移特性。该研究在"田七之乡"广西靖西市田七园以3年生田七为材料,土培条件下以不施镉处理为空白对照,设置6个镉浓度(5、10、20、30、40、50 mg·kg~(-1))梯度,研究了在不同浓度镉胁迫下田七不同部位镉积累特征以及转移特性。结果表明:在不同器官(叶、茎、剪口、须根、主根)随着镉浓度的增加各器官镉的积累量均显著(P0.05)增加,呈现出正相关关系。田七不同部位镉含量的分布特征表现:空白对照下田七各器官镉累积分布表现为须根剪口主根茎叶;当镉浓度为5、10、20、30、40、50 mg·kg~(-1)时,田七镉分布表现为剪口主根须根茎叶;地下部的镉含量显著高于地上部的镉含量;随着镉浓度的增加,无论地下部生物富集系数还是地上部生物富集系数均表现为逐渐降低的趋势。     

镉胁迫对姬松茸生长和镉吸收累积的影响

利用外源镉添加的袋栽试验,系统研究了镉对姬松茸J37和J1两菌株农艺性状、子实体产量、氨基酸和镉含量的影响,以求为低富集镉的姬松茸品种选育和安全栽培提供科学依据。结果表明外源镉添加对姬松茸J37和J1品种子实体的农艺性状的影响各异,两菌株单个子实体重量、子实体高度、菌盖直径、菌盖厚度和菌柄直径等均与外源镉浓度具有显著的负相关性,其中子实体重量与外源镉浓度间的相关性最大;15 mg/kg镉水平是两菌株农艺性状发生显著变化的敏感点。不同镉水平下J37菌株单个子实体重量比J1菌株高10.9%—36.6%,表现为较强镉耐受性。姬松茸J37与J1菌株子实体产量、氨基酸和镉含量均随着潮次的增加而降低,子实体产量和氨基酸含量随着外源镉水平增加而降低,而镉含量随外源镉水平增加而增加。与外源镉0mg/kg处理相比,当外源镉水平达15 mg/kg时,J1和J37子实体总产量分别下降23.4%和13.4%以上,J1和J37子实体镉含量分别提高51.5%、13.7%以上,且J1子实体镉含量已达到食品卫生标准的临界值。当外源镉水平达到35 mg/kg时,J1和J37子实体产量分别下降45%、32%以上,J1和J...     

Estimation of cadmium availability using transformed roots

We have explored cultures of roots transformed by Agrobacterium rhizogenes to test the availability of cadmium in sewage sludges. The toxic effects of Cd and the kinetics of Cd accumulation were examined for three species of transformed roots, grown for 2 weeks in nutrient media, containing Cd as a salt. Roots of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) were highly sensitive, while those of tobacco (Nicotiana tobaccum L.) and morning glory (Calystegia sepium R. Br) were more tolerant. Cd accumulation was higher in sugar beet and morning glory than in tobacco. We developed a non-sterile, 5-day procedure for testing the accumulation (an indication of availability) of Cd from sludge suspensions, using transformed roots of morning glory and tobacco. Cd accumulation varied with plant species and source of sludge. Ranking of Cd availability using this biological assay for Cd accumulation was confirmed by chemical tests with NH₄ acetate and EDTA. Results from transformed roots were also compared with those from normal, excised, tobacco roots and normal and transformed tobacco plantlets. No major alteration in Cd uptake was associated with genetic transformation. We thus demonstrated the feasibility of using transformed roots to estimate the availability of Cd in metal-contaminated materials like sewage sludges.     

Impact of cadmium on aquatic bird Cairina moschata

The impact on palmiped Cairina moschata of two levels of dietary cadmium (Cd) contamination (C1: 1 mg kg⁻¹ and C10: 10 mg kg⁻¹) was investigated on liver gene expression by real-time PCR. Genes involved in mitochondrial metabolism, in antioxidant defences, detoxification and in DNA damage repair were studied. Metallothionein (MT) protein levels and Cd bioaccumulation were also investigated in liver, kidneys and muscle. Male ducks were subjected to three periods of exposure: 10, 20 and 40 days. Cd was mainly bioaccumulated in kidneys first and in liver. The concentrations in liver and kidneys appeared to reach a stable level at 20 days of contamination even if the concentrations in muscle still increased. Cd triggered the enhancement of mitochondrial metabolism, the establishment of antioxidant defences (superoxide dismutase Mn and Cu/Zn; catalase) and of DNA repair from 20 days of contamination. Discrepancies were observed in liver between MT protein levels and MT gene up-regulation. MT gene expression appeared to be a late hour biomarker.     

Turnover rate of metallothionein and cadmium in Mytilus edulis

The results demonstrate the first attempt to determine metallothionein turnover in the whole soft tissues of mussels Mytilus edulis exposed to cadmium. Half-lives for metallothionein and cadmium are 25 and 300 days, respectively. As metallothionein degrades the released cadmium induces further synthesis of the protein, to which the metal becomes resequestered. The slow metallothionein turnover rates (compared with mammals) and the lack of significant cadmium excretion testify to the relatively stable nature of the cadmium-metallothionein complex in these invertebrates and supports the view of a detoxifying role for metallothionein in the mussels.     

Toxicity of cadmium to twoStreptomyces species as affected by clay minerals

Summary The effect of cadmium on the growth ofStreptomyces rimosus andS. bottropensis (both isolated from soil) was investigated. The modifying effect of the presence of the clay minerals kaolinite, bentonite and vermiculte on Cd toxicity was also included. After four days no growth was observed at 100 ppm CdCl₂ ofS. bottropensis and at 150 ppm in case ofS. rimosus. After six days some growth ofS. rimosus occurred at 150 ppm CdCl₂ and ofS. bottropensis at 100 ppm. Addition of the three clay minerals decreased the Cd toxicity considerably.
