稻、麦秸秆对球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosa)生长的抑制作用

考查了秸秆及其浸出液对球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosa)生长的影响,分析了秸秆附着微生物及秸秆物理吸附作用对秸秆抑藻活性的影响,观察了稻杆浸出液对藻细胞形态的影响。结果显示,一定量的物理破碎稻杆、麦杆及其浸出液均可有效抑制棕囊藻的生长,灭菌与未灭菌秸杆之间抑藻效果相差不大。不同条件处理的秸杆浸出液总酚含量与抑藻作用间均存在很大差异,但两者之间并无明显相关性。原子力显微镜观察发现,秸秆处理组细胞膜破裂、细胞塌陷,结构不完整,细胞粗糙度明显增加。这些结果提示微生物和物理吸附对秸杆抑藻作用的贡献很小,秸秆中存在的或降解产生的抑藻活性成分是秸秆抑藻的主要原因;除了酚酸类物质外,秸杆中可能存在其他可以显著抑制藻类生长的物质;秸秆通过破坏藻细胞的膜结构,导致藻细胞出现空洞,细胞内容物流出,从而抑制或杀灭藻细胞。     

不同氮源对球形棕囊藻生长的影响

采用实验室培养的方法比较了6种不同氮源-硝态氮、尿素、甘氨酸、精氨酸、谷氨酸、腺嘌呤对典型赤潮藻球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosa)生长的影响。结果表明,6种氮源均能不同程度地促进球形棕囊藻的生长,但比生长速率和光合作用效率具有显著差异性。将球形棕囊藻在不同浓度氮源下的最大比生长速率分别拟合Monod方程,得出球形棕囊藻在硝态氮、尿素、甘氨酸、精氨酸、谷氨酸和腺嘌呤等6种氮源下的最大比生长率分别为1.05,1.17,0.82,0.87,1.09,0.90d^-1,相应的半饱和常数分别为9.132,23.758,85.519,7.104,23.94,10.959μmol/L。其中,高氮浓度(8820μmol/L)下腺嘌呤对球型棕囊藻的生长具有显著抑制作用。相比较而言,球形棕囊藻对甘氨酸的亲和力最高。当硝态氮、尿素、甘氨酸、精氨酸、谷氨酸和腺嘌呤的浓度分别为8820,882,882,8820,882,0.441μmol/L时,球形棕囊藻的最大光合效率(Fv/Fm)分别为0.619,0.620,0.579,0.595,0.648,0.667。由此可见,氮源对球形棕囊藻的生长和光合作用具有显著影响;球形棕囊藻能够利用多种无机和有机氮源,与其它仅能利用无机氮源的浮游植物相比,更具有竞争优势。     

硝酸盐对球形棕囊藻生长和硝酸还原酶活性的影响

以我国南海海域分离的赤潮原因种——球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystisglobosa)为材料,研究了不同硝酸盐浓度下藻细胞生长及硝酸还原酶活性的变化。当培养基中不含硝酸盐时,藻细胞内硝酸还原酶的活性保持在非常低的水平,藻细胞的生长受到限制,不能形成正常的生长曲线:当培养基中硝酸盐浓度为3.62μmol.L-1时,藻细胞的硝酸还原酶活性和比生长速率达到最大。在含有硝酸盐的培养基中,接种培养后第9天藻细胞硝酸还原酶活性达到最大值,并且在4种不同硝酸盐浓度下,藻细胞硝酸还原酶活性的差异性达到极显著水平(P<0.01)。在接种培养第16天藻细胞密度达到最大值,并且4种不同硝酸盐浓度培养的藻细胞密度之间的差异性也达到极显著水平(P<0.01)。实验结果表明,在培养基中添加不同浓度的硝酸盐,对球形棕囊藻细胞硝酸还原酶的活性和藻细胞的生长有极显著的影响,含有较高硝酸盐的富营养化海域有利于球形棕囊藻细胞的持续生长。     

硝酸盐对球形棕囊藻生长和硝酸还原酶活性的影响

以我国南海海域分离的赤潮原因种——球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosa)为材料, 研究了不同硝酸盐浓度下藻细胞生长及硝酸还原酶活性的变化。当培养基中不含硝酸盐时, 藻细胞内硝酸还原酶的活性保持在非常低的水平, 藻细胞的生长受到限制, 不能形成正常的生长曲线: 当培养基中硝酸盐浓度为3.62 mmol.L-1时, 藻细胞的硝酸还原酶活性和比生长速率达到最大。在含有硝酸盐的培养基中, 接种培养后第9天藻细胞硝酸还原酶活性达到最大值, 并且在4种不同硝酸盐浓度下, 藻细胞硝酸还原酶活性的差异性达到极显著水平(P<0.01)。在接种培养第16天藻细胞密度达到最大值, 并且4种不同硝酸盐浓度培养的藻细胞密度之间的差异性也达到极显著水平(P<0.01)。实验结果表明, 在培养基中添加不同浓度的硝酸盐, 对球形棕囊藻细胞硝酸还原酶的活性和藻细胞的生长有极显著的影响, 含有较高硝酸盐的富营养化海域有利于球形棕囊藻细胞的持续生长。     

二氧化氯对球形棕囊藻叶绿素a、蛋白质、DNA含量的影响

分析了二氧化氯(1.0、1.5、2.0、2.5mgL-1,作用96h;2.5、6.0、8.0、16.0mgL-1,作用60min)对球形棕囊藻叶绿素a、蛋白质含量、氨基酸组成、核酸含量的影响,用透视电镜对二氧化氯(0.5mgL-1,0.8mgL-1)作用24h后藻细胞形态的变化进行了观察,以探讨二氧化氯去除赤潮藻的机理。结果表明,二氧化氯对球形棕囊藻叶绿素a、蛋白质、DNA的含量均有影响。实验各组(1.0-2.5mgL-1,2.5-16.0mgL-1)球形棕囊藻的叶绿素a、蛋白质、DNA的含量均显著低于对照。二氧化氯浓度超过2mgL-1时,球形棕囊藻的叶绿素a、蛋白质、DNA的含量持续降低,氨基酸相对含量发生明显变化;半胱氨酸、酪氨酸和赖氨酸等的相对含量明显降低,而组氨酸、缬氨酸和苯丙氨酸则明显增加。当二氧化氯(2.5-16.0mgL-1)作用3min后,DNA漏出率在13%-18%之间;电镜观察发现,二氧化氯可使细胞膜破损,引起内容物外泄。这些结果显示,二氧化氯能以单分子形式进入细胞,引起叶绿素、蛋白质结构的变化,并破坏藻细胞膜系统,最终导致藻细胞死亡。     

球形棕囊藻生长的营养需求研究

以球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosaScherffel)香港株(Hongkong strain,HK)和汕头株(Shantou strain,ST)为材料,采用正交实验方法研究了氮、磷、铁、微量元素及维生素等营养因子对其生长的影响。磷是球形棕囊藻香港株和汕头株生长的首要限制因子,在添加磷的培养基中,球形棕囊藻生长较快,在无磷培养液中,藻细胞生长较慢,其死亡速率超过生长速率,一般不形成正常生长曲线。汕头株的比生长速率极差值远高于香港株,表明汕头株棕囊藻的生长对营养盐更为敏感。磷酸盐对球形棕囊藻生长的影响极为显著(p<0.01),硝酸盐的影响达到显著水平(p<0.05),而铁、微量元素及维生素对球形棕囊藻生长影响不显著,表明自然海水中铁、微量元素及维生素的含量对球形棕囊藻的生长不构成限制。各因素影响的主次次序为P>N>微量元素>铁>维生素。本研究结果提示,海水富营养化是我国南海海域球形棕囊藻赤潮发生的关键诱因之一。     

球形棕囊藻的生长特性及生活史研究

对球形棕囊藻不同的藻株(香港株HK和汕头株ST)在实验室条件下分别进行了形态学,生活史及生长曲线的研究,结果表明:球形棕囊藻具有一个复杂的异型生活史,具有两种不同的生活形态:群体和游离的单细胞,香港株和汕头株二者单细胞呈球形或近球形,直径大多为3-9μm;群体呈中空的球形囊泡,细胞包埋在胶质囊中较均匀分布,但二者群体大小有较大差异。当培养达到一定阶段,群体衰亡破裂释放大量单细胞。批次培养中球形棕囊藻的生长周期约为20-30d,香港株最适生长温度接近25℃,最大比生长率为038;汕头株的最适生长温度接近30℃,最大比生长率为042,这说明温度是重要的生长限制因子之一。       

珠江口球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosa)赤潮后期的浮游植物群落结构特征研究

研究小组于2009年11月30日至12月2日期间对珠江口一次球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosa)赤潮后期的浮游植物群落结构特征进行了调查研究.共发现浮游植物(包括变种、变型)6门,57属,118种.其中,硅藻门26属67种,占总种数的56.77%;绿藻19属33种,占总种数的27.96%;甲藻4属6种;蓝藻4属5种:裸藻2属5种;金藻2属2种.调查期间,球形棕囊藻可视群体的直径范围为0.5～2.5 cm,密度均值为1 208 colonies·m-3,镜检的密度均值为675 000 colonies·m-3.11月中旬至月底的骤然升温是本次球形棕囊藻赤潮爆发的主要原因.赤潮期间主要伴随优势种有骨条藻(Skeletonema sp.)、颗粒直链藻(Aulacoseira granulata)、新月菱形藻(Cylindrotheca closterium),以及三星裸藻(Euglena tritella).     

充气和搅动对球形棕囊藻生长及囊体形成的影响

球形棕囊藻生活史中包含游离单细胞和球形囊体两种生活形态,但是实验室中培养的球形棕囊藻经常无法形成囊体。研究通过向培养基中泵入过滤空气,以及给培养基提供不同程度的搅动,研究了充气和搅动对球形棕囊藻生长及囊体形成的影响。充气和搅动均显著提高了囊体的数量,并且提高了囊体内细胞的生长速率。但是充气对于囊体直径及囊体内细胞密度并无显著影响。搅动则明显的提高了囊体直径和囊体内细胞数量。然而,尽管充气以及搅动有利于球形棕囊藻囊体的形成,但是培养的囊体直径依然小于自然海区中囊体的大小。     

不同形态的磷源对球形棕囊藻生长及碱性磷酸酶的影响

研究了不同浓度和形态的无机磷(DIP)和有机磷(DOP)对球形棕囊藻细胞生长、培养基中磷浓度的变化以及碱性磷酸酶活性的变化的影响。在缺磷和大分子DOP(卵磷脂)作为磷源的情况下,碱性磷酸酶活性迅速提高,在第9天达到了最大值,其活性分别为19.11U和18.28U,显然在缺磷胁迫下和大分子DOP的利用过程中碱性磷酸酶起着重要作用。DIP(磷酸二氢钾)和小分子DOP(β-甘油磷酸钠)都容易直接被球形棕囊藻吸收利用,碱性磷酸酶活性变化不明显。     

营养胁迫下球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosa Scherffel)的生长行为及溶血活性

近年来,我国广东沿海连续出现大面积球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosaScherffel)赤潮,产生溶血毒素等有害物质,给当地的海洋养殖业造成重大的经济损失。研究不同的生长时期及半连续培养时不同营养盐胁迫下,球形棕囊藻溶血毒素的产生行为。结果显示,批量培养的球形棕囊藻处于生长平稳期末时,溶血活性最大((21±1)units/L);半连续培养时,营养盐限制对球形棕囊藻的生长有明显的抑制作用,其中Fe3 及N盐限制影响最为明显。同时,营养盐限制也可促进棕囊藻溶血毒素的合成,其中Fe3 和-Mn2 的限制性时球形棕囊藻溶血活性显著增强。这些结果表明,球形棕囊藻溶血毒素的产生与藻细胞的生长可能受不同机制的调节,溶血毒素的合成可能是环境胁迫下棕囊藻维持生存的一种策略。     

Population genetic structure and connectivity of the harmful dinoflagellate Alexandrium minutum in the Mediterranean Sea

The toxin-producing microbial species Alexandrium minutum has a wide distribution in the Mediterranean Sea and causes high biomass blooms with consequences on the environment, human health and coastal-related economic activities. Comprehension of algal genetic differences and associated connectivity is fundamental to understand the geographical scale of adaptation and dispersal pathways of harmful microalgal species. In the present study, we combine A. minutum population genetic analyses based on microsatellites with indirect connectivity (C(i)) estimations derived from a general circulation model of the Mediterranean sea. Our results show that four major clusters of genetically homogeneous groups can be identified, loosely corresponding to four regional seas: Adriatic, Ionian, Tyrrhenian and Catalan. Each of the four clusters included a small fraction of mixed and allochthonous genotypes from other Mediterranean areas, but the assignment to one of the four clusters was sufficiently robust as proved by the high ancestry coefficient values displayed by most of the individuals (>84%). The population structure of A. minutum on this scale can be explained by microalgal dispersion following the main regional circulation patterns over successive generations. We hypothesize that limited connectivity among the A. minutum populations results in low gene flow but not in the erosion of variability within the population, as indicated by the high gene diversity values. This study represents a first and new integrated approach, combining both genetic and numerical methods, to characterize and interpret the population structure of a toxic microalgal species. This approach of characterizing genetic population structure and connectivity at a regional scale holds promise for the control and management of the harmful algal bloom events in the Mediterranean Sea.     

红树植物木榄有机溶剂提取物对球形棕囊藻的抑制效应

基于化感作用原理,利用有机溶剂对红树植物木榄(Bruguiera gymnorrhiza)叶片中的活性物质进行连续提取分离,分别得到正己烷相、乙酸乙酯相、正丁醇相和水相提取物。利用这些提取物进行抑藻实验,通过测定球形棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosa)的细胞密度发现:四种组分提取物对球形棕囊藻均具有显著的化感抑制作用;正己烷相和乙酸乙酯相提取物对球形棕囊藻的抑制效果明显优于正丁醇相和水相提取物的抑制效果。正己烷相提取物和乙酸乙酯相提取物对球形棕囊藻的48hEC₅₀分别为14.90mg/L和12.18mg/L。研究表明,藻细胞初始接种密度影响提取物的抑藻效应,低接种密度时抑制率极高,而随着接种密度的升高抑制率下降;接种密度极高时,提取物不但不会抑制甚至还会促进藻细胞的生长。     

Development of new procedures for the isolation of phytoplankton DNA from fixed samples

Phytoplankton samples collected for routine monitoring programmes have traditionally been preserved with fixatives before subsequent analytical procedures such as microscope-based identification, or simply to permit transport between laboratories. In recent years, to simplify identification and enumeration, the use of DNA or RNA probes coupled with the PCR assay has progressed and now represents a routine procedure for screening cultured and field samples. However, the phytoplankton cells have often still to be treated as fixed samples.The extraction of genomic DNA from fixed cultures of Alexandrium minutum cultures was compared using two new methods based on Magnetisable Solid Phase Support (MSPS) techniques with that using three commercial kits. Genomic DNA recovery and PCR amplification were observed and the results obtained from culture samples were validated using field samples. Among the DNA extraction techniques considered, the MSPS methods provided the best results.

Morphology,phylogeny, dynamics,and ichthyotoxicity of Pheopolykrikos hartmannii (Dinophyceae) isolates and blooms from New York,USA

We report on morphological observations, phylogenetic analyses, bloom dynamics, and ichthyotoxicity of the common but poorly characterized dinoflagellate Pheopolykrikos hartmannii (Zimmermann) Matsuoka et Fukuyo. From 2008 to 2010 in the Forge River Estuary, NY, USA, P. hartmannii bloomed during summer and early fall, achieving densities exceeding 8,000 cells · mL^?1 and often dominating microphytoplankton communities. Large subunit (LSU) and small subunit (SSU) rDNA sequences demonstrated that NY isolates of P. hartmannii sequences were 99%–100% identical to P. hartmannii isolates from eastern US and Korea. In both the LSU and SSU rDNA phylogenies, the clades containing P. hartmannii sequences were distinct sister clades to those composed of Polykrikos schwartzii and P. kofoidii. In the LSU rDNA phylogeny, however, the clade composed of P. hartmannii and a sequence of the photosynthetic Polykrikos lebourae was well separated from the clade composed of 10 entries of Polykrikos schwartzii and P. kofoidii. In addition, a gap of ~180 bases was observed when the LSU rDNA sequences of P. hartmannii were aligned with P. schwartzii and P. kofoidii but was not observed in the alignment between P. hartmannii and P. lebourae. Using scanning electron microscopy, several morphological features previously not reported for P. hartmannii were observed: a ventral groove located in the sulcus, a deep arc‐like apical concavity within the area of apical groove, scale‐like vesicles, and a shallow, completely enclosed, loop‐like apical groove. Resting cysts with arrow‐like surface spines were produced heterothallically by crossing clonal isolates and germinated single gymnoid cells. Finally, filtered and unfiltered bloom water from the Forge River and clonal cultures of P. hartmannii exhibited acute ichthyotoxicity to juvenile sheepshead minnows (Cyprinodon variegates) and aeration did not mitigate this effect, suggesting P. hartmannii is an ichthyotoxic, harmful alga.     

山东海域赤潮灾害特征及预警报管理

掌握赤潮灾害时空分布规律是科学设计赤潮监控方案、提高防灾管理效率的基础和依据。本文统计分析了1990—2010年间山东海域的76次赤潮灾害事件数据。结果表明:赤潮灾害频率显著地分为4个波段,且峰值呈递增趋势;灾害面积呈现周期性倒U型曲线变化;每年的5—10月是赤潮灾害的多发期,其中,8月的灾害次数和灾害面积均占全年总数的30%以上;灾害空间分布集中在莱州湾海域、青岛近海、庙岛群岛的北隍城海域,烟台四十里湾的赤潮灾害最频繁;夜光藻(Noctiluca scintillans)和球型棕囊藻(Phaeocystis globosa)引发的赤潮灾害面积最高,夜光藻和红色裸甲藻(Gymnodinium sanguineum)致灾次数最多。本文从赤潮监测与信息采集、赤潮预报方法以及赤潮灾害预警报管理机制3个方面分析总结了山东海域赤潮灾害预警报业务化管理现状,结合山东海域赤潮灾害特征和预警报管理实践,提出了以控制污染和修复生态环境为根本的赤潮防控建议。     

Effects of small-scale turbulence on Phaeocystis globosa (Prymnesiophyceae) growth and life cycle

The response of Phaeocystis globosa to small-scale turbulence was studied in 5 l microcosms. Turbulence was generated by oscillating grids. The effect of small-scale turbulence was examined under 3 turbulence levels representative of the P. globosa natural environment, and in non-turbulent control cultures. Single cell numbers, nitrogen concentrations and colony formation (number and diameter) were followed over 13 days in each experimental culture. Small-scale turbulence decreased single cell growth and also influenced colony formation. More colonies were formed when turbulence increased to a given threshold, but above this turbulence level, fewer and smaller colonies were observed in P. globosa cultures. The ecological significance of these results, particularly, the potential influence of small-scale turbulence on competition mechanisms between P. globosa and diatoms are finally discussed and suggested as a key factor to understand phytoplankton successions in the Eastern English Channel.
