氮沉降和施生物质炭对毛竹林土壤N2O通量的影响

本研究于2019年7月—2020年7月在浙江省杭州市典型毛竹林布置野外控制实验,采用静态箱-气相色谱法测定毛竹林土壤N₂O通量,分析生物质炭(10 t·hm^-2)、氮沉降(60 kg N·hm^-2·a^-1)、生物质炭+氮沉降混合处理对土壤N₂O通量的影响,并探讨了土壤N₂O通量与环境因子的关系。结果表明: 与对照相比,氮沉降处理使毛竹林土壤N₂O年累积排放量增加了14.6%,而施用生物质炭及其与氮沉降混合处理则分别降低了20.8%和10.6%。相关分析表明,在所有处理下,毛竹林土壤N₂O排放速率与土壤温度、硝态氮含量、脲酶和蛋白酶活性之间均呈极显著相关,与土壤铵态氮含量均呈显著相关。在氮沉降背景下,施用生物质炭对毛竹林土壤N₂O通量仍具有显著的减排效应。     

高效氮肥对新疆膜下滴灌棉田土壤氧化亚氮排放的影响

高效氮肥对新疆灰漠土农田氧化亚氮(N₂O)排放的影响目前尚不明确.本研究选取树脂包膜尿素(ESN)和尿素配施脲酶抑制剂和硝化抑制剂(U+I)两种高效氮肥处理,以传统尿素(U)处理为对照,研究高效氮肥对新疆膜下滴灌棉田N₂O排放的影响.ESN在播种时一次性施入,而其他处理的氮肥在生育期内随灌溉分次施入.在生育期内,采用静态箱-气相色谱法每周采集和分析2次气体样品.结果表明: 与其他处理相比,ESN处理显著增加了生育期间土壤N₂O的排放量,增幅47%～73%;在施肥后的4个月内,ESN处理下的土壤铵态氮(NH₄⁺-N)和硝态氮(NO₃^--N)含量始终处于较高水平,随后则逐渐减小并与其他处理的含量相近.ESN在播种时全部施入可能是导致土壤高NH₄⁺-N和NO₃^--N含量以及高N₂O排放量的原因.与U处理相比,U+I处理减少了9.9%的N₂O排放量,但两者间差异不显著;U+I处理NO₃^--N含量始终低于ESN和U处理.新疆灰漠土膜下滴灌棉田生育期土壤的N₂O排放为300～500 g N₂O-N·hm^-2,整体低于其他农田生态系统.与播种前全部施入相比,氮肥随滴灌多次施入更利于降低N₂O排放.本试验条件下,高效氮肥对干旱区膜下滴灌棉田土壤N₂O的减排效应有限.     

黄河口不同恢复阶段湿地土壤N2O产生过程对氮输入的响应

以黄河口生态恢复前后未恢复区(R₀)、2007年恢复区(R₂₀₀₇)和2002年恢复区(R₂₀₀₂)的芦苇湿地为研究对象,研究了不同形态氮输入对湿地土壤N₂O产生过程的影响与贡献.结果表明: 硝态氮(NO₃^--N)输入对恢复区湿地土壤N₂O总产生量的影响远远大于铵态氮(NH₄⁺-N),但两者均抑制了R₀土壤的N₂O总产生量.尽管NO₃^--N输入对R₂₀₀₂表层土壤N₂O总产生量的影响明显大于R₂₀₀₇,但二者的N₂O产生量均随氮输入量的增加而增加.恢复区湿地土壤的反硝化作用和硝化细菌反硝化作用受NO₃^--N输入的影响明显,而R₀土壤产生N₂O的生物过程受其影响并不显著.尽管NH₄⁺-N输入对湿地土壤N₂O的总产生量影响不大,但其输入整体促进了R₀ 土壤的硝化细菌反硝化作用、R₂₀₀₇土壤的硝化作用和R₂₀₀₂土壤的非生物作用.比较而言,NO₃^--N输入对R₀、R₂₀₀₇和R₂₀₀₂湿地土壤N₂O产生的非生物作用主要表现为抑制,NH₄⁺-N输入则整体提高了R₀和R₂₀₀₂湿地土壤非生物作用的N₂O产生量,这与不同形态氮输入对土壤pH的调节作用密切相关.研究发现,NO₃^--N输入大大增加了湿地土壤的N₂O总产生量,改变了原有湿地土壤生物作用和非生物作用的贡献模式,故生态恢复工程导致的营养盐输入(NO₃^--N)应受到特别关注.

Kinetics of the reactions of nitrogen dioxide with glutathione,cysteine, and uric acid at physiological pH

Nitrogen dioxide (NO₂^•) is a key biological oxidant. It can be derived from peroxynitrite via the interaction of nitric oxide with superoxide, from nitrite with peroxidases, or from autoxidation of nitric oxide. In this study, submicromolar concentrations of NO₂^• were generated in < 1 μs using pulse radiolysis, and the kinetics of scavenging NO₂^• by glutathione, cysteine, or uric acid were monitored by spectrophotometry. The formation of the urate radical was observed directly, while the production of the oxidizing radical obtained on reaction of NO₂^• with the thiols (the thiyl radical) was monitored via oxidation of 2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid). At pH 7.4, rate constants for reaction of NO₂^• with glutathione, cysteine, and urate were estimated as 2 × 10⁷, 5 × 10⁷, and 2 × 10⁷ M⁻¹ s⁻¹, respectively. The variation of these rate constants with pH indicated that thiolate reacted much faster than undissociated thiol. The dissociation of urate also accelerated reaction with NO₂^• at pH > 8. The thiyl radical from GSH reacted with urate with a rate constant of 3 × 10⁷ M⁻¹ s⁻¹. The implications of these values are: (i) the lifetime of NO₂^• in cytosol is < 10 μs; (ii) thiols are the dominant ‘sink’ for NO₂^• in cells/tissue, whereas urate is also a major scavenger in plasma; (iii) the diffusion distance of NO₂^• is 0.2 μm in the cytoplasm and < 0.8 μm in plasma; (iv) urate protects GSH against depletion on oxidative challenge from NO₂^•; and (v) reactions between NO₂^• and thiols/urate severely limit the likelihood of reaction of NO₂^• with NO• to form N₂O₃ in the cytoplasm.     

Perchlorate and nitrate reductase activity in the perchlorate-respiring bacterium perclace

The perchlorate (ClO₄⁻)-respiring organism, strain perc1ace, can grow using nitrate (NO₃⁻) as a terminal electron acceptor. In resting cell suspensions, NO₃⁻ grown cells reduced ClO₄⁻, and ClO₄⁻ grown cells reduced NO₃⁻. Activity assays showed that nitrate reductase (NR) activity was 1.31 μmol min⁻¹ (mg protein)⁻¹ in ClO₄⁻ grown cells, and perchlorate reductase (PR) activity was 4.24 μmol min⁻¹ (mg protein)⁻¹ in NO₃⁻ grown cells. PR activity was detected within the periplasmic space, with activities as high as 14 μmol min⁻¹ (mg protein)⁻¹. The NR had a pH optimum of 9.0 while the PR had an optimum of 8.0. This study suggests that separate terminal reductases are present in strain perclace to reduce NO₃⁻ and ClO₄⁻.     

N、P供给对作物排放N2O的影响研究初报

The preliminary results with detached leaves and seedlings of corn, soybean and sorghumfrom pot and field experiments indicate that inorganic nitrogen supply can significantly enhance the N₂O emission and NO₃^- concentration in plants in the case of phosphorus deficiency and of less light, but phosphorus Supply and sunlight condition can markedly reduce the N₂O emission and NO₃^- concentration in the plants.It's concluded seemed thatthe N₂O emission is a kind of physiological protection to avoid NO₃^- accumulation in plantswhen nitrogen metabolism in plants is in disorder and mineral nitrogen is in over supply.     

长期不同施氮量下冬小麦-夏玉米复种系统土壤硝态氮累积和淋洗特征

冬小麦夏玉米是华北平原主要的粮食作物,其集约化的农业种植体系虽然普遍实现了粮食的高产,但氮肥常年大量施用会造成土壤深层硝态氮累积、淋洗等问题.本文以河北清苑冬小麦-夏玉米复种体系为研究对象,设置不同施氮量(N₀、N₁₀₀、N₁₈₀、N₂₅₅、N₃₃₀,分别表示施氮0、100、180、255、330 kg·hm^-2),于2010-2016年开展6个周期定位试验,研究不同施氮量对土壤硝态氮累积和淋洗的影响.结果表明: 在12季冬小麦和夏玉米收获期各处理产量存在显著差异,土壤硝态氮含量表现为冬小麦季累积、夏玉米季淋洗的特点,且90和180 cm土层硝态氮累积量均表现为 N₃₃₀>N₂₅₅>N₁₈₀>N₁₀₀>N₀.从土壤剖面分布看,硝态氮可淋洗至990 cm的深层土壤中,且出现6个累积峰,同时土壤硝态氮累积峰随施氮量增加而下移,N₃₃₀处理累积峰最深在840 cm处.从各土层累积量的分配看,5个处理0～90 cm硝态氮累积量占比在10%左右,大部分都在90 cm以下,不能被植物利用.可见,夏玉米季硝态氮淋洗严重,施氮量越高,土壤硝态氮残留量越大,向土壤深层淋洗量也越多,由此带来的对地下水的污染风险应该引起重视.从产量与硝态氮累积情况来看,N₁₈₀为最优处理.     

Studies on the kinetics and mechanism of anation reactions of some six-coordinate complexes of chromium(III) in aqueous solution

Rates of stepwise anation of cis-Cr(ox)₂(H₂O₂)⁻ with SCN⁻/N₃⁻, Cr(acac)₂(H₂O)₂⁺ with SCN⁻ and Cr(atda)(H₂O)₂ with SCN⁻ have been investigated in weakly acidic aqueous solutions. Rate constants, k_I and k_II for the two steps in each system, are composite as k_x = k_x⁰+k_x^X[X⁻] (x = I, II; X⁻ = SCN⁻, N₃⁻). These rate constants have been evaluated also as the corresponding ΔH^≠ and ΔS^≠ values. The results obtained and the plausible I_d mechanism seem to suggest Cr---OOC bond dissociation (hence a strongly negative ΔS^≠) generating the transition state in each system with outer-sphere association forming the precursor complex in the X⁻ dependent paths.     

交叉培养法研究养分对作物幼苗释放N2O的影响

为验证土壤中N₂O能否通过植物的输导组织由叶片释放从而干扰植物直接释放N₂O的定量测定,实验采用分室隔离法确证了土壤N₂O对测定某些作物(如玉米、高粱)直接释放N₂O的干扰;采用交叉培养法消除了这种干扰,准确地测定了大豆、玉米幼苗直接释放N₂O的强度;并研究了N、P营养与植物释放N₂O及体内NO₃^--N浓度之间的相关性.     

土壤中反硝化酶活性变化与N2O排放的关系

研究施肥条件下,土壤反硝化酶活性硝酸还原酶(NR)活性、亚硝酸还原酶(NiR)活性及羟胺还原酶(HyR)活性在玉米生长季节中的变化及其与土壤含水量、硝态氮含量、N₂O排放之间的关系。结果表明,3种还原酶都有明显的季节变化规律并受土壤水分含量及施肥的影响。通过研究3种反硝化酶活性与土壤含水量及N₂O排放量之间的关系后指出,反硝化酶活性变化可作为一个区分旱田N₂O产生途径的指标.     

Characterization of the particulate nitrite oxidase and its component activities from the chemoautotroph Nitrobacter agilis

1. Difference spectra, at room and liquid N₂ temperatures, of S₂O₄²⁻-, and NO₂⁻-reduced intact cells and cell-free preparations of Nitrobacter agilis demonstrated the presence of cytochromes of the c- and a-types. Reduction of cytochromes by succinate, and to a limited extent, by NADPH also occurred, provided KCN (0.1 mM) was also present.

2. A particulate, heat-labile nitrite oxidase having an absolute requirement for O₂ was prepared from N. agilis cells using sonic oscillation and differential centrifugation. The particles also possessed NADH oxidase, succinoxidase, formate oxidase and traces of NADPH oxidase activity. The stoichiometry of the nitrite oxidase reaction approached the theoretical value of 2 moles of NO₂⁻ consumed per mole of O₂ consumed. The pH optimum of the nitrite oxidase system shifted to progressively more alkaline values as the NO₂⁻ concentration was increased, changing from a pH value of 6.8 at 0.6 mM KNO₂ to pH 8.0 at 0.01 M KNO₂ with apparent K_m's of 0.2 and 1.2 mM NO₂⁻, respectively. Computations of the HNO₂ concentrations present under the above conditions showed an approx. 500-fold greater affinity for HNO₂ which was independent of pH, suggesting the involvement of HNO₂ as both a substrate and an inhibitor (at higher concentrations) of the nitrite oxidase system. The marked inhibition by NaN₃, NaCN and Na₂S, as well the light-reversible inhibition by CO, indicated the presence of cytochrome oxidase which was subsequently characterized. NO₂⁻ proved to be a competitive inhibitor of the nitrite oxidase system.

3. The particulate preparation also possessed a heat-labile nitrite-cytochrome c reductase activity which was energy independent and routinely measured under anaerobic conditions. As in the case of nitrite oxidase, the affinity of the enzyme for NO₃⁻ increased as the pH was lowered, but the pH optimum remained unaffected. In terms of calculated HNO₂ concentration an approximately constant K_m of about 0.2 μM was estimated at the several pH's examined. The inhibition by NO₃⁻ was shown to be competitive. The marked sensitivity of the reductase to several metal-binding agents implicated a metal component in the electron transport chain at the site prior to cytochrome c.

4. The membrane-like composition of the nitrite oxidase system is indicated.     

Relative balance of the cost and benefit associated with carnivory in the tropical Utricularia foliosa

Investment by bladderwort (Utricularia foliosa) in carnivory, in terms of total C and N of bladders per leaf, was estimated in places with different nutrient concentrations from the Yahuarcaca Creek in the Colombian Amazon. The aims were to determine whether nutrient limiting conditions stimulate the investment in carnivory, and the relative balance between C and N invested in carnivory versus C and N obtained from prey. There were no significant differences either for phosphate (PO₄³⁻) concentration or for ammonia (NH₄⁺) concentration among five sampling areas, along approximately 5 km long stretch of the creek, with a pooled mean ± S.D. of 0.19 ± 0.06 and 8.6 ± 3.0 μM, respectively. However, there were significant differences in the nitrate (NO₃⁻) concentration ranging from 0.6 to 2.5 μM. Total C and N of bladders per leaf increased with decreasing NO₃⁻. This corroborates the hypotheses that the carnivorous plant U. foliosa optimises its investment in carnivory according to nutrient availability in the water, and that N is a limiting factor that stimulates the investment in carnivory. The numbers of prey per bladder were also higher under NO₃⁻ limitation, thus enhancing the input of nutrients toward the plant through the bladders. The ratio of total C of prey captured/total C invested in bladders was always lower than 1. However, the efficiency of N was higher since when NO₃⁻ concentration was lower than 1 μM, the ratio of total N of prey captured/total N invested in bladders ranged between 0.97 and 1.67.     

不同种类氮肥对土壤释放N2O的影响

用培养试验模拟研究了在正常水分(22%)、干旱(12%)和高含水量(32%)条件下,普通碳酸氢铵(普碳)、尿素及新型肥料长效碳酸氢铵(长碳)对土壤释放N₂O的影响;同时考察了土壤NO₃^-的形成时间和形成量.结果表明,农田中施加的无机氮肥是大气中N₂O的重要来源,而长碳与普碳和尿素相比,不但可以明显延后N₂O释放高峰期出现时间,而且大多数情况下可以显著减少其释放量(P<0.01).在5个月的监测期内,与普碳和尿素相比其减少N₂O释放的比例分别为80.23和88.41%(12%含水量),40.00和27.59%(22%含水量),无减少作用和45.88%(32%含水量).本研究结果提示长碳具有作为农田生态系统N₂O减排措施的巨大潜力,同时暗示在农业中用长碳代替目前普遍应用的普碳,可以减少地下水中NO₃^-引起的污染.     

Oxidative phosphorylation coupled to oxygen uptake and nitrate reduction in Micrococcus denitrificans

A procedure is described for preparing particles from cells of Micrococcus denitrificans which were broken osmotically after treatment with lysozyme.

1. 1. The preparations catalysed ATP synthesis coupled to O₂ uptake or NO₃⁻ reduction. With NADH or succinate as the electron donors the P:O ratios were about 1.5 and 0.5, respectively; and the P:NO₃⁻ ratios were about 0.9 and 0.06, respectively.

2. 2. Addition of ADP or P_i to the reaction mixture increased the rates of NADH-dependent O₂ uptake and NO₃⁻ reduction. Addition of 1 mM 2,4-dinitrophenol, which inhibited phosphorylation by 50–60%, increased the basal rates of electron transport.

3. 3. Evidence derived from spectrophotometry and from the differential inhibition by antimycin A of O₂ and NO₃⁻ reduction leads to the conclusion that the nitrate reductase interacted with the respiratory chain in the region of the b-type cytochrome, and that the c-type cytochrome present was not involved in the reduction of NO₃⁻ to NO₂⁻.

茶园及相邻林地土壤N2O排放的垂直分布特征

对茶园及相邻林地土壤N2O排放的垂直分布特征进行研究.结果表明: 在0～100 cm土层,茶园和林地土壤全氮（TN）、N₂O排放速率及积累量均随着土层增加而减少,且茶园均值大于林地.土壤pH、TN、水溶性有机氮(WSON)、微生物生物量氮(MBN)、NO₃^--N及NH₄⁺-N含量随着土层增加总体呈下降趋势,茶园各土层TN、WSON、MBN、NO₃^--N及NH₄⁺-N含量显著大于林地,而不同土层pH值均小于林地.茶园和林地土壤N₂O排放速率与TN、MBN及NH₄⁺-N含量呈显著正相关,而与pH相关性不显著.茶园土壤N₂O排放速率与NO₃^--N含量的相关性显著,与WSON的相关性不显著,而在林地土壤中呈相反趋势.0~100 cm土层内茶园 WSON/SON和N₂O N/MBN平均值大于林地,而MBN/SON平均值小于林地.这表明茶园土壤氮库有较高的代谢效率,N₂O排放速率较高,不利于土壤氮库的储量积累,也不利于维持土壤质量和持续利用的潜力.

Effect of influent COD/N ratio on biological nitrogen removal (BNR) from high-strength ammonium industrial wastewater

The effect of influent COD/N ratio on biological nitrogen removal (BNR) from high-strength ammonium industrial wastewater was investigated. Experiments were conducted in a modified Ludzack–Ettinger pilot-plant configuration for 365 days. Total nitrification of an influent concentration of 1200 mg NH₄⁺–N l⁻¹ was obtained in this period. Influent COD/N ratios between 0.71 and 3.4 g COD g N⁻¹ were tested by varying the nitrogen loading rate (NLR) supplied to the pilot plant. An exponential decrease of nitrification rate was observed when the influent COD/N ratio increased.

The experimental COD/N ratio for denitrification was 7.1±0.8 g COD g N⁻¹ while the stoichiometric ratio was 4.2 g COD g N⁻¹. This difference is attributable to the oxidation of organic matter in the anoxic reactor with the oxygen of the internal recycle. The influence of influent COD/N ratio on the treatment of high-strength ammonium industrial wastewater can be quantified with these results. The influence of COD/N ratio should be one of the main parameters in the design of biological nitrogen removal processes in industrial wastewater treatment.     

Nitrite reduces the effects of HOCl on unsaturated phosphatidylcholines--a MALDI-TOF MS study

The concentration of nitrite (NO₂⁻) increases under inflammatory conditions. However, the physiological role of nitrite is so far controversial discussed: it was reported that effects of HOCl (an important inflammation mediator) on phospholipids (PL) may be enhanced but also reduced in the presence of nitrite.

In this paper a simple model system was used: unsaturated phosphatidylcholine (PC) vesicles were treated with HOCl in the presence of varying NaNO₂ concentrations and the yield of reaction products was determined by MALDI-TOF MS: the extent of chlorohydrin generation was significantly reduced in the presence of NaNO₂ because HOCl is consumed by the oxidation of NO₂⁻ to NO₃⁻.

Similar results were obtained when HOCl was generated by the myeloperoxidase (MPO)/H₂O₂/Cl⁻ system or the experiments were carried out in the presence of a simple peptide. It is concluded that the transient products of the reaction between HOCl and NO₂⁻ do not have a sufficient reactivity to modify PL.     

Nutrient removal by thermophilic Fischerella (Mastigocladus laminosus) in a simulated algaculture process

A novel nutrient removal/waste heat utilization process was simulated using semicontinuous cultures of the thermophilic cyanobacterium Fischerella. Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC)-enriched cultures, maintained with 10 mg l⁻¹ daily productivity, diurnally varying temperature (from 55°C to 26–28°C), a 12:12 light cycle (200 μE sec⁻¹ m⁻²) and 50% biomass recycling into heated effluent at the beginning of each light period, removed > 95% of NO₃⁻ + NO₂⁻−N, 71% of NH₃-N, 82% of PO₄³⁻ −P, and 70% of total P from effluent water samples containing approximately 400 μg l⁻¹ combined N and 60 μg l⁻¹ P. Nutrient removal was not severely impaired by an altered temperature gradient, doubled light intensity, or DIC limitation. Recycling 75% of the biomass at the end of each light period resulted in unimpaired NO₃⁻ + NO₂⁻ removal, 38–45% P removal and no net NH₃ removal. Diurnally varying P removal, averaging 50–60%, and nearly constant > 80% N removal, are therefore projected for a full-scale process with continuous biomass recycling.
