湿地植物的丛枝菌根（AM）

随着对湿地重要性认识的增加,湿地植物的丛枝菌根（arbuscular mycorrhiza,AM）结构研究受到了关注。研究表明,AM结构在多种湿地类型和湿地植被类型中存在,但AM形成受植被生长地水文状况的影响;从湿地植物上的AM真菌种类看,球囊霉属（Glomus）是湿地环境的常有属。同陆生植物相比,有关湿地植物AM结构的研究尽管已取得了一些进展,但还有很大差距,尤其在我国还几乎处于空白状态。鉴此,从形成AM的湿地植被类型、湿地环境中的AM真菌种类、AM对湿地植物生长的影响,以及影响湿地植物AM形成的因素等方面进行了详细阐述,并对今后的研究方向做了展望,以期为我国开展湿地植物AM结构研究提供参考。

植物菌根共生磷酸盐转运蛋白

大多数植物能和丛枝菌根（arbuscular mycorrhiza, AM）真菌形成菌根共生体。AM能够促进植物对土壤中矿质营养的吸收,尤其是磷的吸收。磷的吸收和转运由磷酸盐转运蛋白介导。总结了植物AM磷酸盐转运蛋白及其结构特征,分析其分类及系统进化,并综述了AM磷酸盐转运蛋白介导的磷的吸收和转运过程及其基因的表达调控。植物AM磷酸盐转运蛋白属于Pht1家族成员,它不仅对磷的吸收和转运是必需的,而且对AM共生也至关重要,为进一步了解菌根形成的分子机理及信号转导途径提供了理论基础。     

丛枝菌根根外菌丝网络形成过程中的时间效应及植物介导作用

以豆科植物紫花苜蓿为试验材料,应用三室(供体室-间隔室-受体室)培养系统,研究在供体和受体紫花苜蓿根系之间菌丝网络形成的时间效应以及间隔室中不同植物对菌丝网络建成的介导作用.第一个试验在供体和受体植物生长8、10、12、14周之后进行收获以检验菌丝网络形成的时间效应;第二个试验则在间隔室分别种植紫花苜蓿、羊草和独行菜,以考察菌根依赖性不同的植物对菌丝网络形成的介导作用.试验结果显示:(1)接种丛枝菌根真菌的供体紫花苜蓿根系能够形成良好的菌根共生,其外延菌丝可穿过尼龙网和间隔室侵染受体植物根系;植物生长8周后,在受体植物根系检测到菌根侵染,证实供体和受体植物间形成了根间菌丝网络;10周后,尽管供体室和受体室植物的侵染率已无差异,但二者的生物量和地上部磷浓度差异却加大,表现出菌丝网络对植物种内竞争影响的不对称性.(2)试验条件下,不同介导植物对受体植物的菌根侵染及生物量均无明显影响,但显著降低了供体植物生物量和地上部磷浓度;间隔室无介导植物或种植独行菜时,受体植物地上部和根系生物量显著低于供体植物,而当介导植物为紫花苜蓿和羊草时,受体和供体植物生物量无显著差异.研究表明,植物根间菌丝网络的形成受时间和介导植物的影响,同时也具有调节植物间资源分配和植物相互作用的功能.     

The Jasmonic Acid Signalling Pathway Restricts the Development of the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Association in Tomato

The role of the jasmonate signalling pathway in modulating the establishment of the arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) symbiosis between tomato plants and Glomus intraradices fungus was studied. The consequences of AM formation due to the blockage of the jasmonate signalling pathway were studied in experiments with plant mutants impaired in JA perception. The tomato jai-1 mutant (jasmonic acid insensitive 1) failed to regulate colonization and was more susceptible to fungal infection, showing accelerated colonization. The frequency and the intensity of fungal colonization were greatly increased in the jai-1 insensitive mutant plants. In parallel, the systemic effects on mycorrhization due to the activation of the jasmonate signalling pathway by foliar application of MeJA were evaluated and histochemical and molecular parameters of mycorrhizal intensity and efficiency were measured. Histochemical determination of fungal infectivity and fungal alkaline phosphatase activity reveal that the systemic application of MeJA was effective in reducing mycorrhization and mainly affected fungal phosphate metabolism and arbuscule formation, analyzed by the expression of GiALP and the AM-specific gene LePT4, respectively. The results of the present study clearly show that JA participates in the susceptibility of tomato to infection by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and it seems that arbuscular colonization in tomato is tightly controlled by the jasmonate signalling pathway.

The Ecology of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi

Arbuscular mycorrhiza is a mutually beneficial biological association between species in the fungal phylum Glomeromycota and higher plants roots. The symbiosis is thought to have afforded green plants the opportunity to invade dry land ca 450 Ma ago and the vast majority of extant terrestrial plants retain this association. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi perform various ecological functions in exchange for host photosynthetic carbon that almost always contribute to the fitness of hosts from an individual to community level. Recent AM fungal research, increasingly delving into the ‘Black Box’, suggests that species in this phylum may play a key facilitative role in below-ground micro- and meso-organism community dynamics, even more perhaps, that of a bioengineer. The ubiquitous nature of the symbiosis in extant flora and the fact that variations from the AM symbiosis are recent events suggest that Glomeromycota and plant roots coevolved. This review considers aspects of AM fungal ecology emphasizing past and present importance of the phylum in niche to global ecosystem function. Nutrient exchange, evolution, taxonomy, phenology, below-ground microbial interaction, propagule dissemination, invasive plants interactions, the potential role in phytoremediation and some of the factors affecting AM fungal biology are discussed. We conclude that it is essential to include AM association in any study of higher plants in natural environments in order to provide an holistic understanding of ecosystems.     

植物中丛枝菌根形成的信号途径研究进展

丛枝菌根(arbuscular mycorrhizal,AM)共生是丛枝菌根真菌与大多数陆地植物的根系之间形成的一种互利共生关系。植物给菌根真菌提供碳水化合物;作为回报,菌根真菌能够增强植物对矿质营养元素(尤其是磷)的吸收。菌根的形成过程是一系列信号交换和转导的结果,具有严格并且一致的顺序。本文以植物中菌根形成的信号途径为主线,对菌根真菌的形成过程和信号转导途径及其方式进行了分析和讨论。高等植物中菌根形成的信号途径与豆科植物的结瘤信号途径部分共享,并且与钙离子信号途径相关,但前者更为广泛。尽管该途径中很多过程目前还不十分清楚,但是相信在不久的将来就可以揭开菌根形成过程中的众多谜团。     

Mycorrhizal colonisation in plants from intermittent aquatic habitats

Several plant species with amphibious characteristics from intermittent aquatic habitats were examined for colonisation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AM), dark septate endophytes (DSE) and the ratio of aerenchyma in root tissue. We studied submerged specimens of Alisma plantago-aquatica, Mentha aquatica, Myosotis scorpioides, Oenanthe fistulosa, Gratiola officinalis, Glyceria fluitans, Sium latifolium and Teucrium scordium. In the first four, we also examined the emerged growth forms, which were grown under experimental conditions. Roots of all species were mycorrhizal and showed AM and DSE colonisation. The results suggest that AM colonisation may also be abundant in plants of aquatic environment. Arbuscules were not found in submerged specimens of M. aquatica, O. fistulosa and S. latifolium. The AM colonisation was generally higher in emerged specimens as compared to submerged ones. The aerenchyma ratio in root cross-sections ranged from 10 to 50% and in most cases did not differ between submerged and emerged specimens. No clear relationship between AM colonisation and aerenchyma ratio was recognized, while a positive correlation between AM and plant available phosphorous was established.     

Interaction between Earthworms and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in Plants: A Review

Different kinds of soil animals and microorganisms inhabit the plant rhizosphere, which function closely to plant roots. Of them, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and earthworms play a critical role in sustaining the soil-plant health. Earthworms and AMF belong to the soil community and are soil beneficial organisms at different trophic levels. Both of them improve soil fertility and structural development, collectively promoting plant growth and nutrient acquisition capacity. Earthworm activities redistribute mycorrhizal fungi spores and give diversified effects on root mycorrhizal fungal colonization. Dual inoculation with both earthworms and AMF strongly magnifies the response on plant growth through increased soil enzyme activities and changes in soil nutrient availability, collectively mitigating the negative effects of heavy metal pollution in plants and soils. This thus enhances phytoremediation and plant disease resistance. This review simply outlines the effects of earthworms and AMF on the soil-plant relationship. The effects of earthworms on root AMF colonization and activities are also analyzed. This paper also summarizes the interaction between earthworms and AMF on plants along with suggested future research.     

Antioxidant Enzyme Activities in Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Glomus intraradices</Emphasis>) Fungus Inoculated and Non-inoculated Maize Plants Under Zinc Deficiency

A greenhouse experiment was conducted to examine the changes in antioxidant enzyme activities of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus intraradices Schenck and Smith inoculated (M+) and non-inoculated (M−) maize (Zea mays L.) plants (variety COHM5) under varying levels of zinc (0, 1.25, 2.5, 3.75 and 5.0 mg kg⁻¹). Roots and shoots sampled at 45 days after sowing (DAS) were estimated for its antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, peroxidase) IAA oxidase, polyphenol oxidase, acid phosphatase and nutritional status especially P and Zn concentrations. Mycorrhizal inoculation significantly (P ≤ 0.01) increased all the four antioxidant enzymes in both roots and shoots at 45 DAS regardless of Zn levels. All enzyme activities except SOD increased progressively with increasing levels of Zn under M+ and M− conditions. The SOD activity got decreased in roots and shoots at 2.5 and 3.75 mg Zn kg⁻¹. Acid phosphatase activity in M+ roots and shoots were higher in all levels of Zn but the values decreased with increasing levels of Zn particularly in roots. Mycorrhizal fungus inoculated plants had higher P and Zn concentrations in both stages in comparison to non-inoculated plants. Our overall data suggest that mycorrhizal symbiosis plays a vital role in enhancing activities of antioxidant enzymes and nutritional status that enables the host plant to sustain zinc deficient conditions.
