以黄瓜为受体,以不同化感效应(促进/抑制)小麦品种为供体,采用PCR-DGGE技术,研究了小麦根系分泌物及伴生小麦对黄瓜生长及土壤真菌群落结构的影响.结果表明： 在处理第6天和第12天,化感促进效应小麦根系分泌物分别显著提高了黄瓜幼苗株高和茎粗;在处理第18天,化感促进和抑制效应小麦根系分泌物均显著提高了黄瓜幼苗株高;在处理第6天,不同化感效应小麦根系分泌物均显著降低了黄瓜幼苗根际土壤真菌群落条带数、Shannon指数及均匀度指数,有苗对照(W)显著高于无苗对照(Wn);在处理第18天,各处理的真菌群落结构条带数、Shannon指数及均匀度指数均显著高于无苗对照(Wn).伴生化感抑制效应小麦显著降低了黄瓜根际土壤真菌群落Shannon指数和均匀度指数,说明小麦根系分泌物及伴生小麦改变了土壤真菌群落结构.DGGE图谱及其主成分分析结果表明,伴生不同化感效应小麦对土壤真菌群落结构影响较大.     

黄花蒿对4种受体植物的化感作用研究

采用室内生物测定法,以小麦、燕麦、黄瓜和萝卜为受体,研究了黄花蒿对受体植物的化感作用,结果显示:黄花蒿水浸提液对小麦、燕麦的化感综合效应(SE)为56.29、57.17;其地上部淋溶物对小麦和黄瓜表现为抑制作用,对燕麦和萝卜表现为促进作用;其茎叶挥发物对4种受体植物根长生长有较强的抑制作用;其残体分解物前10d对受体有很强的抑制作用,根系分泌物对小麦和燕麦抑制作用较强,对萝卜和黄瓜表现为促进作用。结果表明,黄花蒿5种不同途径来源的化感物质对4种受体植物都有不同程度的化感作用,且黄花蒿主要是通过地上部淋溶、挥发向环境中释放化感物质,其次是通过根系分泌物对授体植物产生化感作用。     

大蒜根系分泌物的化感作用

以苍山白蒜和蔡家坡紫蒜为材料,采用水培方法收集根系分泌物,研究了2个大蒜品种的根系分泌物对莴苣种子发芽和幼苗生长及对黄瓜枯萎病菌、西瓜枯萎病菌的化感效应.结果表明:2个大蒜品种的根系分泌物对莴苣种子发芽和幼苗生长均表现为低浓度(0.1、0.2 g·mL-1)促进、高浓度(0.4、0.6 g·mL-1)抑制,高浓度时蔡家坡紫蒜的抑制作用大于苍山白蒜;对黄瓜枯萎病菌和西瓜枯萎病菌的菌丝生长及孢子萌发均表现为抑制作用,随着根系分泌物浓度的提高,抑制作用增强,其中黄瓜枯萎病菌较敏感,且蔡家坡紫蒜的抑制作用大于苍山白蒜.

采用种子发芽生物测试法,以发芽率、发芽势、发芽指数和活力指数为指标,对番茄(Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.)种子及其萌发期对大白菜[Brassica campestris ssp.pekinensis(Lour.)G.Olsson]、萝卜(Raphanus sativus Linn.)、黄瓜(Cucumis sativus Linn.)和番茄种子萌发的化感效应进行测定,并采用化感效应指数(RI)和化感综合效应(SE)对化感作用进行评价.结果表明:用30 mg·mL-1番茄种子浸提液培养大白菜、萝卜和黄瓜种子,各项发芽指标均低于对照;番茄种子萌发可导致套种的大白菜、萝卜和黄瓜种子的各项发芽指标降低;番茄幼苗分泌物对大白菜、萝卜和黄瓜种子的萌发也均有抑制作用;在4个发芽指标中,对种子活力指数的抑制效应最大.与对照相比,0.5和1.0g番茄幼苗模拟腐解物对大白菜、萝卜和黄瓜种子的发芽率有一定的促进作用,但均导致种子发芽指数和活力指数的降低;而1.5g番茄幼苗模拟腐解物对3种蔬菜种子各项发芽指标的抑制作用最大;随模拟腐解物质量的增加,番茄种子的发芽指标值也逐渐降低.8、16和24 mg·mL-1番茄幼苗浸提液对大白菜、萝卜、黄瓜和番茄种子的萌发有明显抑制作用,随浸提液浓度提高,受试蔬菜种子的各项发芽指标均逐渐降低.总体上看,在番茄种子萌发过程中对受试蔬菜种子萌发的RI值多数为负值、SE值均为负值.研究结果证实:番茄种子含有化感物质,在其萌发过程中分泌与释放化感物质并抑制胚根生长,且除抑制其他植物种子的萌发外还具有自毒作用.     

人参皂苷对4种栽培作物早期根系发育的化感效应

人参、西洋参能通过根系分泌三萜皂苷等化感物质,严重影响后茬人参的生长,但对人参以外的植物是否具有化感效应尚不清楚。本实验研究了不同质量浓度的人参皂苷对小麦、白菜、黄瓜及绿豆4种常见栽培作物早期根系发育的影响,结果发现人参皂苷处理液（25、50和100mg·L-1）对4种作物主根及不定根的发育影响不尽相同。随着处理质量浓度的升高,小麦、白菜、黄瓜根系活力分别比同组CK明显降低,根长、根鲜重也呈降低趋势。各浓度人参皂苷处理对黄瓜和绿豆下胚轴不定根的数量、根长、根鲜重及根系活力的影响均未达到显著水平,但二者抗氧化酶的活性都微有升高。总之,人参皂苷对4种栽培作物的主根发育均有抑制作用,尤其对小麦、黄瓜主根生长的抑制作用较强;但对黄瓜和绿豆不定根发育的影响不明显。

化感物质对植物根系形态属性影响的meta分析

植物化感作用是通过释放到环境中的化感物质直接或间接影响受试植物生长而实现的。化感物质主要作用于根系,所以植物根系属性是化感作用研究的重要指标之一。目前,关于受试植物形态属性对外源化感物质的响应模式尚缺乏整体的认识。为此,本文对61篇有关纯化感物质(包括酚类、萜类和含氮化合物等)对植物根系形态属性(尤其是根长)影响的文献进行整合分析。结果发现: 整体上化感物质处理显著抑制根长,而对根生物量、根表面积和根体积等形态属性影响较小;酚类对根长的抑制效应最大,且化感物质对草本植物根长的抑制率高于木本、作物和其他植物;酚类与根长抑制效应呈显著的线性相关。进一步量化了4种典型酚酸——阿魏酸、对羟基苯甲酸、香草酸和肉桂酸的浓度-效应关系,证实了黄酮对受试植物根长的抑制效应显著高于酚酸类化感物质。受试植物根系属性对化感物质的响应主要受化感物质类型和添加浓度、植物种类与培养条件等多因素影响,建议未来研究在土壤环境条件下综合评价化感物质对受试植物根系形态和生理属性以及根系构型等参数的影响机制。     

小蓬草精油的化感效应

小蓬草精油化感作用研究结果表明不同浓度小蓬草精油对青菜、白菜、小麦、稗草和鹅观草的种子最终发芽率、种子发芽指数、幼苗根长、幼苗根系活力、幼苗叶绿素含量、幼苗叶绿素a含量和幼苗叶绿素b含量的化感效应敏感指数均为负值,小蓬草精油对五种植物具有抑制作用,且精油浓度越高抑制作用越强.小蓬草精油主要通过抑制青菜、白菜、小麦、稗草和鹅观草的种子发芽速率、幼苗根系活力和叶绿素含量来抑制受体植物生长.不同浓度小蓬草精油对五种植物种子最终发芽率、种子发芽指数和幼苗根长的影响中,鹅观草对小蓬草精油最为敏感,小蓬草精油对鹅观草种子萌发的半抑制浓度(IC50)为0.42 g L-1.

以不同化感潜力分蘖洋葱为供体,黄瓜为受体,研究了分蘖洋葱根系分泌物对黄瓜幼苗生长、根际土壤微生物数量及细菌群落结构的影响.结果表明:不同化感潜力分蘖洋葱根系分泌物对黄瓜幼苗生长均具有促进作用,且随着浓度的升高,促进作用增强,相同浓度下,化感潜力强、弱供体之间差异不显著;不同化感潜力分蘖洋葱根系分泌物均增加了黄瓜根际土壤细菌和放线菌数量,降低了真菌和尖镰孢菌数量,化感潜力强的品种(L-06)效果更显著;不同化感潜力分蘖洋葱根系分泌物均能提高黄瓜根际土壤细菌群落丰富度,差异条带的序列片段经比对推测为3大细菌类群:Actinobacteria(放线菌纲)、Proteobacteria(变形菌纲)和Anaerolineaceae(厌氧绳菌纲),其中厌氧绳菌只出现在化感潜力强(L-06)的处理中.化感潜力强(L-06)、浓度高(10 mL·株-1)的分蘖洋葱根系分泌物更有利于黄瓜根际土壤细菌群落丰富度的提高.     

连作大豆根分泌物对根腐病病原菌的化感作用

采用砂培,水培和室内培养等试验方法研究了连作大豆根分泌物对根腐病病原菌的化感作用。结果表明,与对照相比,连作和轮作大豆根分泌物对半镰孢菌,粉红粘帚功和尖镰孢菌尤其是对半裸镰孢菌的生长有明显的化感促进作用,差异达显著或极显著水平,低浓度时,连作大豆根分泌物对半裸镰孢菌和粉红粘帚菌生长的化感促进作用明显大于轮作大豆,差异达显著水平,同一茬口,高浓度根分泌物半裸镰孢菌生长的化感促进作用小于低浓度,而且在连作大豆中差异达显著水平。与对照相比,高浓度的邻苯二甲酸和丙二酸（L5和B5）对半裸镰孢菌,粉红粘帚菌和尖镰孢菌尤其是对半裸镰孢菌的生长有化感抑制作用,差异达显著或极显著水平,而低浓诬的邻苯二甲酸和丙二酸对半裸镰孢菌,粉红粘帚菌和尖镰孢菌的生长有化感促进,部分差异达显著水平。     

黄瓜种子及其萌发期的化感作用研究

以大白菜、萝卜、番茄和黄瓜种子为受体,采用实验室培养皿种子发芽生物测试法研究了黄瓜种子浸提液、种子萌发、胚根和芽苗分泌物、芽苗腐解物和芽苗浸提液的化感效应。结果表明:(1)黄瓜种子浸提液对大白菜、萝卜、番茄和黄瓜种子萌发均有化感抑制作用,即黄瓜种子内含有某些化感抑制物质。(2)在水浸提过的黄瓜种子萌发过程中,它不仅对其近邻套种的大白菜、萝卜和番茄种子萌发产生化感抑制作用,而且其胚根和芽苗分泌物对后茬播种的4种蔬菜种子发芽也表现出不同程度的化感抑制作用;黄瓜芽苗腐解物和芽苗水浸提液也对各受体蔬菜种子发芽与生长产生不同程度的化感抑制作用,且随着腐解芽苗量的增加或浸提液浓度的升高,各受体蔬菜种子的发芽指标值、化感效应指数值和综合效应值随之降低。(3)黄瓜种子浸提液及芽苗各器官的化感物质对黄瓜种子的萌发与生长产生了自毒作用,且黄瓜芽苗腐解物、芽苗浸提液、胚根及芽苗分泌物对受体黄瓜的自毒作用均为最大。研究发现,黄瓜种子浸提液、种子萌发时期以及芽苗各器官的化感物质主要是通过抑制受体胚根的生长而起化感抑制作用,即受体蔬菜种子胚根对化感效应最为敏感;因黄瓜种子及萌发期释放化感物质的途径有所不同,导致受体大白菜、萝卜、黄瓜和番茄的化感响应也不相同;在黄瓜种子萌发和芽苗生长的早期,化感物质即开始在芽苗体内进行合成与积累,一部分可通过胚根和芽苗分泌途径释放到环境中,另一部分可通过芽苗腐解途径释放化感物质,并对受体蔬菜种子萌发与生长表现出较强的化感抑制作用。     

Influence of Ultraviolet Radiation on Germination and Early Seedling Growth

The influence of UV-B radiation (280–320 nm) from filtered and unfiltered FS-40 fluorescent sunlamps on germination and early seedling growth was examined for a range of vegetables (tomato, radish, cucumber, lettuce, and bean) and field crops (wheat, cotton, soybean, and millet). Continuous exposure of seeds for 3 days to 26.9 × 10⁻² W × m⁻² UV-B radiation (280–320 nm) at 25°C, had a slight effect on fresh weight of seedlings but no appreciable influence on germination percentage, or dry weight of seedlings. Extending the time of exposure to 6 days, however, resulted in abnormal seedling growth in all species but wheat. Typical responses were short, stubby roots, bronzing of the cotyledons, increased pigmentation, and abnormal curvature of the shoots.     

Differential inactivation of seed exudate stimulation of Pythium ultimum sporangium germination by Enterobacter cloacae influences biological control efficacy on different plant species

This study was initiated to understand whether differential biological control efficacy of Enterobacter cloacae on various plant species is due to differences in the ability of E. cloacae to inactivate the stimulatory activity of seed exudates to Pythium ultimum sporangium germination. In biological control assays, E. cloacae was effective in controlling Pythium damping-off when placed on the seeds of carrot, cotton, cucumber, lettuce, radish, tomato, and wheat but failed to protect corn and pea from damping-off. Seeds from plants such as corn and pea had high rates of exudation, whereas cotton and cucumber seeds had much lower rates of exudation. Patterns of seed exudation and the release of P. ultimum sporangium germination stimulants varied among the plants tested. Seed exudates of plants such as carrot, corn, lettuce, pea, radish, and wheat were generally more stimulatory to P. ultimum than were the exudates of cotton, cucumber, sunflower, and tomato. However, this was not directly related to the ability of E. cloacae to inactivate the stimulatory activity of the exudate and reduce P. ultimum sporangium germination. In the spermosphere, E. cloacae readily reduced the stimulatory activity of seed exudates from all plant species except corn and pea. Our data have shown that the inability of E. cloacae to protect corn and pea seeds from Pythium damping-off is directly related to its ability to inactivate the stimulatory activity of seed exudates. On all other plants tested, E. cloacae was effective in suppressing damping-off and inactivating the stimulatory activity of seed exudates.     

离体蒜苗挥发物的化感作用及其成分分析

采用半密闭容器法研究了离体蒜苗挥发物对黄瓜、番茄、萝卜的化感作用,并对其成分进行了GC-MS分析。结果表明:蒜苗挥发物对黄瓜的种子萌发及幼苗生长表现为低促高抑的双重浓度效应,对番茄和萝卜则表现出抑制作用,并且随供体蒜苗质量的增大,抑制作用增强;供体蒜苗质量低于400g时,受体植株SOD、POD、CAT、PPO、PAL等活性增强,供体质量为400g时,受体作物上述酶活性均降低;离体蒜苗挥发物的主要化学成分为二烯丙基二硫化物(23.33%)、1,3-二噻烷(18.34%)和邻苯二甲酸二丁酯(6.30%)。     

镉胁迫下小麦根系分泌物的变化

通过水培和砂培两种方法 ,研究了镉胁迫下小麦 ( Triticum aestivm L.)根系分泌物变化。通过研究镉对小麦根系分泌氨基酸和糖 ,根系分泌其它一些次生代谢物质等的影响 ,以及根系分泌物对蔬菜种子萌发的影响 ,探讨镉胁迫下植物根系的生理生态效应。研究结果表明 :镉胁迫下 ,小麦根系分泌物无论在量上还是质上都有变化。镉胁迫下根系分泌的电解质、糖类、氨基酸以及其它一些次生代谢物质都有所变化 ,但变化情况有差异。电解质外渗率、糖类随 Cd2 + 浓度升高而增加 ,在低浓度 Cd2 + 作用下 ( 0 .5 mg/ L) ,随处理浓度的升高 ,氨基酸分泌量增加 ;当处理浓度高于相应浓度时 ,氨基酸分泌量随浓度升高而减少。随 Cd2 + 浓度升高 ,次生代谢物分泌种类减少。这说明小麦通过改变根分泌作用而缓解镉危害。由于根系分泌次生代谢物的活动比较复杂 ,因而根系的分泌作用有待于进一步研究。根系分泌物中可能含有某些物质抑制萝卜、白菜种子萌发 ,这是涉及到植物他感作用的问题 ,值得并有待于进一步研究。初步分析小麦根系在不同的环境中对镉胁迫的响应方式 ,为以后根分泌物的深入研究提供了一定的思路 ,也为镉污染区农作物的合理栽培提供新的参考资料。

研究了黄瓜品种津研4号（感枯萎病）、津春4号（抗枯萎病）和云南黑籽南瓜根系分泌物对津研4号黄瓜枯萎病发生的影响及其原因.结果表明:感病品种根系分泌物处理的黄瓜枯萎病发病早,接种后第15天病株率显著高于对照,至第20天时病株率与对照相近;而抗病品种根系分泌物处理的病株率一直显著小于对照.感病品种根系分泌物浇灌的植株株高、鲜质量降低,根系活力下降、电导度（伤害度）增加,而抗病品种和云南黑籽南瓜根系分泌物处理对植株影响较小.感病品种根系分泌物促进了黄瓜枯萎病菌的生长,而抗病品种和云南黑籽南瓜根系分泌物则抑制了病菌生长.     

西花蓟马在6种蔬菜寄主上的实验种群生命表

自西花蓟马Frankliniella occidentalis传入我国后,该虫对蔬菜寄主的危害趋于严重,组建了25℃条件下,西花蓟马在黄瓜、甘蓝、莴苣、茄子、芹菜和大蒜叶片的实验种群生命表,以研究西花蓟马的危害差异性,为西花蓟马的防治提供基础数据。结果表明西花蓟马的生长发育、繁殖和生命表参数等在不同寄主之间有明显差异。西花蓟马在黄瓜上发育最快,其未成熟期为11.43 d,同时在黄瓜上最先开始产卵,产卵前期为1.22 d,在芹菜上发育最慢,为16.11 d。其每雌每天在甘蓝上和莴苣上产卵量最大,分别为2.88粒和2.48粒,在大蒜上最小,为0.77粒;每雌每天产雌率、子代雌性比在甘蓝和莴苣上都大于其他寄主。雌虫寿命在甘蓝上最长(29.06 d)、雄虫寿命在莴苣上最长(13.22 d)。西花蓟马在黄瓜、莴苣、茄子、甘蓝、芹菜和大蒜上的内禀增长力rm值分别为0.1318、0.1228、0.1154、0.1197、0.0860和0.0791;净增殖率R0分别为19.1248、30.8523、17.9322、34.5322、8.9491和8.3536。种群趋势预测指数(I)在甘蓝(34.17)、莴苣(30.09)上明显高于其它寄主,在芹菜(8.00)和大蒜(8.22)上最低。     

Autotoxicity in cucumber (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Cucumis sativus</Emphasis> L.) seedlings is alleviated by silicon through an increase in the activity of antioxidant enzymes and by mitigating lipid peroxidation

Autotoxicity in plants limits their growth and that of nearby plants of the same species, which has obvious implications in crop yield and quality. Silicon (Si) has been shown to increase plant tolerance to autotoxic stress. However, the physiological mechanisms underlying the effects of Si in alleviating autotoxicity during germination in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) are unknown. Cinnamic acid derivatives, such as 3-phenylpropionic acid (PA), are a class of autotoxins present in cucumber root exudates. Our objective was to investigate Si-induced autotoxic stress tolerance in cucumber seedlings by focusing on the effects of Si on the induction of antioxidant defense pathways. We found that PA treatment significantly reduced seed germination, radicle length, lateral root number, fresh weight, AsA and GSH contents, and the activities of SOD, CAT, and APX in cucumber seedlings, while it increased membrane permeability and levels of MDA, proline, O₂^-, and H₂O₂. Application of Si enhanced growth of PA-treated plants and significantly increased germination rate, radicle length, lateral root number, fresh weight, AsA and GSH levels, and SOD, CAT, POD, and APX activities. These results suggest that exogenous Si alleviates autotoxicity caused by PA during seed germination by increasing antioxidant enzyme activities and mitigating lipid peroxidation.     

Effects of intercropping systems on community composition and diversity of predatory arthropods in vegetable fields

Field trials were carried out on Langqi Island, Fujian, PR China in 2004, to determine the effects of intercropping Chinese cabbage (Brassica chinensis) with green cabbage (Brassica oleracea), garlic (Allium sativum) and lettuce (Lactuca sativa), on community composition and diversity of predatory arthropods in vegetable fields. Two intercropping plots were designed and used in this study. In plot 1, two ridges of Chinese cabbage were intercropped with one ridge of garlic (CG1), lettuce (CL1) or green cabbage (CB1). In plot 2, the Chinese cabbage was planted in the center (100 cm wide) of the ridge, and under-sown with garlic (CG2), lettuce (CL2) or green cabbage (CB2) on both edges (25 cm wide) of the same ridge. A monoculture plot of the Chinese cabbage (CK) was arranged for comparison with plots 1 and 2. The highest species richness was found in CG1, and the lowest in CK. The highest abundance was found in CL1 (141.67 predators/plot), whereas the lowest was in CB1 (97.67 predators/plot). With the exception of CL1, significantly higher diversity indices were found in intercropping treatments than in CK. The majority of spiders sampled from fields were from families Theridiidae (34.04%) and Lycosidae (30.57%). These findings suggest that Chinese cabbage intercropped with non-cruciferous crops might increase species richness, abundance and diversity of the arthropod community in general and predators in particular.
