不同初始螺类密度对沉水植物刺苦草Vallisneria spinulosa Yan及其附着藻类的影响

大型水生植物及其附着藻类是浅水湖泊中的重要初级生产者。淡水螺类作为重要的初级消费者,其密度对沉水植物及其附着藻类的影响存在争议。本研究设置4种初始螺类密度（0、40、80、240 ind·m^-2）,研究淡水螺类（椭圆萝卜螺Radix swinhoei H.Adams）对刺苦草（Vallisneria spinulosa Yan）及其附着藻类的直接牧食作用和螺类种群的变化。结果显示,在添加螺处理中,刺苦草和人工基质表面附着藻类的生物量显著降低,同时沉水植物的生长显著增加,在较高初始密度螺类处理中刺苦草产生更多的分株。到实验结束时,螺类的死亡率较高,但3个有螺处理间螺类鲜重无显著差异,而高初始密度螺类条件下的最终密度仍较高,同时个体重量（均重）也较小。在中富营养条件下淡水螺类可以直接牧食沉水植物叶片,但对植物生长的抑制作用不显著,有可能是因为沉水植物并不能作为唯一的食物来源维持螺类种群,同时螺类的种群结构受到水体营养水平等因素的制约。     

椭圆萝卜螺对两种沉水植物生长的影响

有关水生植物与淡水螺类关系的研究国内尚未见直接报道。本文研究了椭圆萝卜螺 (ＲａｄｉｘｓｗｉｎｈｏｅｉＨ .Ａｄａｍｓ)对两种常见的沉水植物———刺苦草 (ＶａｌｌｉｓｎｅｒｉａｓｐｉｎｕｌｏｓａＹａｎ)和金鱼藻 (ＣｅｒａｔｏｐｈｙｌｌｕｍｄｅｍｅｒｓｕｍＬ .)生长的影响 ,以明确该种螺的存在是促进还是抑制植物的生长。1　材料与方法实验在湖北鄂州梁子湖进行。采集有 6— 8片叶、株高约 1 2ｃｍ的单株刺苦草种于底部有约 5ｃｍ厚底泥的塑料桶中 (桶口直径 30ｃｍ ,深 40ｃｍ) ,加入螺后 ,桶口用网目大小为 1ｍｍ× 1ｍｍ的…     

西湖湖西浮游与着生藻类季节变化及相互关系

2014年11月至2015年8月调查了西湖湖西沿岸带浮游藻类和不同基质(植物、石块和底泥)上着生藻类的群落结构及季节变化, 分析了着生丝状藻与浮游丝状藻的相互关系以及它们与环境因子的相关性, 探讨湖西生态修复过程中季节性暴发的丝状藻水华的原因。结果表明浮游藻类和植物、底泥、石头上着生藻类中均以硅藻门种类数(分别占52.5%、60.4%、86.7%和72.7%)最多, 蓝藻门(分别占10.1%、8.9%、6.7%和15.2%)和绿藻门(分别占26.3%、19.8%、5.6%和10.6%)次之, 其他门类相对较少, 浮游藻类与着生藻类优势种季节差异较大。附植丝状藻密度显著高于附泥和附石丝状藻, 且狐尾藻上着生丝状藻密度与浮游丝状藻密度呈显著正相关, 表明狐尾藻着生丝状藻可能是浮游丝状藻较重要的来源之一, 该结果可为西湖丝状藻水华的控制提供一些参考。相关性分析表明, 着生藻类和丝状藻与各理化因子(水深、透明度、溶解氧、水温、pH、TN、SRP、TP等)均无显著相关性。     

三峡库区古夫河着生藻类叶绿素a的时空分布特征及其影响因素

古夫河系长江三峡水库湖北省境内香溪河的一条支流,发源于神农架林区并最终汇入三峡水库香溪河库湾,是流域生态学研究的热点水体。本文对古夫河2010年9月至2011年8月干流及主要支流21个样点的着生藻类叶绿素a和14项环境因子进行了调查,采用多元统计方法对调查数据进行了方差分析、聚类分析、偏相关分析和逐步回归分析,研究了着生藻类叶绿素a的时空分布特征及其主要环境影响因子。结果表明：叶绿素a含量范围为0.07—145.96 mg/m2,平均值为11.63 mg/m2。不同样点的叶绿素a含量差异显著,其中古夫河干流上游低于下游,支流竹园河上游高于下游,表现为人为影响大的区域高于人为影响小的区域;不同季节着生藻类叶绿素a含量差异显著,表现出冬春季高、夏秋季低的趋势。古夫河着生藻类叶绿素a与总磷和硬度呈极显著正相关,与电导率、氨氮和总氮呈显著正相关,而与流速呈极显著负相关;水体总磷是古夫河流域着生藻类生长的第一限制因子,流速对着生藻类的生长具有显著抑制作用;古夫河着生藻类生物量空间格局可能由其生境尺度（营养盐）和流域尺度（硬度和电导率）的特征决定,而古夫河着生藻类生物量时间变化主要受水动力（流速）的影响。     

三峡库区古夫河着生藻类分布与水质因子的关系

于2010年12月至2011年12月,对位于长江三峡库区内的湖北省兴山县古夫河着生的藻类和水体共采样10次,共鉴定出着生藻类28属,检测水质指标12项。对水质变量进行因子分析,根据特征值大于1的原则选取4个主成分,第一主成分主要代表总氮（TN）和硝酸盐氮（NO3--N）,第二主成分主要代表pH和化学需氧量（CODCr）,第三主成分主要代表磷酸盐磷（PO34--P）、总磷（TP）和氨氮（NH4＋-N）,第四主成分主要代表电导率（Cond）和总有机碳（TOC）。将提取的9项主要水质因子与着生藻类重要属进行典型对应分析（CCA）,结果可见,古夫河主要水质因子与着生藻类类群分布相关性大小为：CODCr〉pH〉TN〉NO3--N〉TOC〉TP〉PO34--P〉Cond〉NH4＋-N。Monte Carlo显著性检验表明,CODCr和pH对古夫河着生藻类物种组成及空间分布的影响最大,其次为TN、NO3--N和TOC。pH与CODCr呈极强的负相关关系,古夫河着生藻类大多数类群均与CODCr表现出正相关关系,仅胶毛藻属（Chaetophora）倾向低CODcr和偏碱性的环境。TN和NO3--N有很强正相关性,而两者均与TOC有强负相关,它们将古夫河着生藻类大体上分为两类,即亲碳元素的类群和亲氮元素的类群。TP通常是河流生态系统中的限制性营养因子,但在古夫河流域中并不是影响着生藻类物种分布的主要水质因子。     

酸性水对淡水螺类存活,生长与繁殖的影响

研究了酸性水对椭圆萝卜螺和铜锈环棱螺等淡水螺类存活、生长及繁殖的影响。结果表明,椭圆萝卜螺对低pH值的耐受能力,96小时LC_(50)值为pH3.96。pH值低于5.0时,淡水肺螺类产的卵袋数量较少,卵孵化时间较长,幼螺生长较缓慢。铜锈环棱螺仔螺在低pH(对照组)下生长到第35和45天时,其体长生长率分别为1.21和1.07％,而pH5.0组则仅有0.18和0.29％。pH5.5对淡水肺螺类无明显影响,pH3.0则不能生存。     

河流着生藻类多样性对城镇化的响应——以深圳市为例

着生藻类是河流生态状况的重要指示生物,然而关于城镇化对着生藻类多样性影响的研究还较缺乏。基于深圳市9条主要河流74个样点2020年雨、旱季的调查数据,对比了城区、郊区河流样点的着生藻类α、β多样性。两次调查共鉴定出着生藻类301个分类单元,其中硅藻门种类最多。谷皮菱形藻(Nitzschia palea)、隐头舟形藻(Navicula cryptocephala)、平庸菱形藻(Nitzschia inconspicua)等污染指示种在城区组相对丰度更高,而清洁指示种微小曲丝藻(Achnanthidium minutissimum)在郊区组相对丰度更高。城镇化对着生藻类物种丰富度、香农维纳多样性指数、Pielou均匀度指数等α多样性指数均无显著影响,但对着生藻类群落结构有显著影响。城区组样点的着生藻类β多样性(用主坐标分析质心指示)低于郊区组,城区组与郊区组藻类β多样性差异在旱季更为显著。两组样点的藻类β多样性差异主要来源于物种周转组分。与城区组着生藻类群落显著相关的环境因子包括总氮、高锰酸钾指数、电导率、pH、浊度和水深,而与郊区组着生藻类群落显著相关的是总氮、溶解性无机磷和电导率。研究...

沉水植物对重金属的吸收净化和受害机理研究进展

沉水植物对重金属的积累净化和受害机理研究主要集中在4个方面：（1）沉水植物对重金属（包括放射性物质）的吸收、积累和净化作用;（2）沉水植物对重金属的抗性强弱和机制;（3）沉水植物用于监测水体的重金属污染;（4）沉水植物的重金属胁迫机制,包括重金属对植物形态和显微结构的损伤,对植物抗氧化酶系统的影响,对植物的叶绿素、蛋白质以及光合与呼吸作用等生理生化指标的影响,植物对重金属的吸附和转运动力学,以及Zn对Cd毒害的拮抗等。     

沉水植物光合作用的特点与研究进展

沉水植物属于高等植物,由陆生被子植物演化而来,它们在形态、光合生态生理方面对水下生活环境发生了一系列适应性变化。沉水植物的光合作用受水体中光、温度、pH和无机碳等影响,本文对此进行了综述。水中低CO2扩散率以及细胞外较厚的扩散层阻碍了沉水植物净碳的吸收,因此,沉水植物光合作用速率受到无机碳供应的限制。为获得无机碳,沉水植物在形态结构和生理生化上表现一定的特性,包括薄的叶片层并含有叶绿体以及对HCO3-利用的能力,拟C4型和CAM型光合代谢途径的选择。这些是沉水植物碳浓缩机制的具体体现。

Sediment and Water Nutrient Characteristics in Patches of Submerged Macrophytes in Running Waters

(1) The relative importance of sediments and water as nutrient sources for submerged macrophytes in running waters is poorly understood. Here we present water and sediment nutrient characteristics within macrophyte patches in Bavarian rivers. (2) No significant differences between early (June/July) and late summer (August/September) sediment nutrient characteristics could be detected within macrophyte patches. Therefore, a single sediment sample per macrophyte patch was considered to be sufficient for characterising nutrient concentrations during the main growing season in running waters. (3) Sediment TP (total phosphorus) is not a useful parameter for predicting trophic status in running waters. Sediment porewater SRP (soluble reactive phosphorus) concentration is not correlated to water body SRP or TP concentration; nor is it correlated with sediment TP content. Potamogeton coloratus, a oligotrophic species, is associated with low overlying and porewater SRP concentrations but high sediment TP content. Eutrophic species, such as Potamogeton pectinatus, are associated with low sediment TP. (4) It is hypothesized that Chara hispida primarily takes up sediment ammonia for nitrogen nutrition. (5) Nutrient characteristics of the water body and the sediment of eight macrophyte species in Bavarian rivers are described.     

云南抚仙湖沉水植物分布及群落结构特征

2005年6～7月对抚仙湖沉水植物进行了调查。共采集到沉水植物12种。沉水植物在抚仙湖沿岸浅水区均有不同程度的分布,主要分布在北岸、南岸、河口以及湖湾。分布区内平均水深4．27m,平均透明度2．96m。优势种为黑藻、穗状狐尾藻、篦齿眼子菜、金鱼藻和苦草,其优势度分别为59．08％、54．47％、54．26％、48．71％和48．30％,占群落总优势度的65．19％。根据优势种及组成特征,可将沉水植物群落分为11个类型。全湖沉水植物分布区面积318．8hm^2,资源量19502．79t,平均生物量6118g/m^2。2005年与1980年前后和2003年的调查结果相比,抚仙湖沉水植物、生物量和分布范围显著增加。     

Spatial Analysis of Production by Macrophytes,Phytoplankton and Epiphyton in a Large River System under Different Water-Level Conditions

Relative contributions by macrophytes, epiphyton and phytoplankton to total primary production was estimated in a large (∼300 km²) widening of the St. Lawrence River (Canada), over a 2-year period with contrasting flows and water levels. Spatially-explicit estimates of whole-system production were obtained by combining field measurements with remotely sensed data and empirical models using GIS. Primary production and relative contributions of each producer type differed markedly between open-water and wetland habitats. Spatial differences within each habitat arose from interactions between physical factors including light, water depth, water transit times and wind stress. At the whole-system level, annual primary production represented 105 gC m⁻² y⁻¹, divided roughly equally among phytoplankton (34%), submerged macrophytes (27%), emergent macrophytes (23%) and epiphyton (16%). A 10% decrease in annual flows and 1-m decline in water levels between 2000 and 2001 resulted in a 50% loss of marsh habitat, a 60% increase in phytoplankton production in the open-water zone, and in the appearance of conspicuous filamentous algal mats. Low water levels induced substantial shifts in the spatial configuration and relative importance of primary producers although total river primary production remained stable between years.     

Oxygen Budget of a River Rich in Submerged Macrophytes (River Zschopau in the South of the GDR)

The oxygen budget of the river Zschopau, a flowing water typical of hilly areas in the south of the GDR, was investigated in regard of seasonal variations in the activity of submerged macrophytes. Oxygen concentrations were continuously measured in the river by means of electrodes. Seasonal activity patterns of Ranunculus penicillatus, the dominant macrophyte in the river stretch investigated, were found by laboratory experiments. The oxygen budget was obtained by measuring CO₂ concentrations by infrared gas analysis (IRGA) and CO₂ and O₂ concentriations by means of electrodes.     

Alteration of Ecosystem Function by Zebra Mussels in Oneida Lake: Impacts on Submerged Macrophytes

Dreissenid mussels (the zebra mussel Dreissena polymorpha and the quagga mussel D. bugensis) are ecosystem engineers that modify the physical environment by increasing light penetration. Such a change is likely to affect the distribution and diversity of submerged macrophytes. Filter-feeding by these mussels has been associated with increased water clarity in many North American and European lakes. In this study, we report the increase in water clarity of Oneida Lake, New York, USA, for 1975–2002 and argue that the increase was caused by zebra mussel invasion rather than declines in nutrients. Over the study period, although mean total phosphorus decreased significantly, the main increase in water clarity occurred after the zebra mussel invasion in 1991. The average depth receiving 1% surface light increased from 6.7 m to 7.8 m after the invasion of zebra mussels, representing a 23% areal expansion. The maximum depth of macrophyte colonization, as measured by diver and hydroacoustic surveys, increased from 3.0 m before the invasion of zebra mussels to 5.1 m after their establishment. In addition, macrophyte species richness increased, the frequency of occurrence increased for most species, and the composition of the macrophyte community changed from low-light–tolerant species to those tolerating a wide range of light conditions. Comparisons with observations reported in the literature indicate that increased light penetration alone could explain these changes in macrophyte distribution and diversity. Such changes will increase the importance of benthic primary production over pelagic production in the food web, thereby representing an overall alteration of ecosystem function, a process we refer to as “benthification”.     

利用人工围隔研究沉水植被恢复的生态效应

近几十年来,随着水体富营养化加剧和其它人类活动影响,一些湖泊,尤其是我国长江中下游地区浅水湖泊中,沉水植被锐减甚至消失。如武汉东湖,６０年代十分繁茂的沉水植被现已濒临灭绝。沉水植被作为主要初级生产者,在水生态系统中起着一定的作用。在退化湖泊生态系统重建与恢复中,重建沉水植被是关键性的步骤。本研究利用人工围隔,在富营养化水体中重建沉水植被,通过与近旁无沉水植被的湖区对照,从水体理化性质、浮游植物叶绿素ａ含量以及原生动物群落结构与多样性几个方面,研究沉水植被恢复的生态效应,以期为退化湖泊生态系统的重…     

Submerged Macrophytes Mitigate Direct and Indirect Insecticide Effects in Freshwater Communities

Understanding how ecological interactions mitigate the impacts of perturbations such as pesticides in biological communities is an important basic and applied question for ecologists. In aquatic ecosystems, new evidence from microcosm experiments suggests that submerged macrophytes can buffer cladocerans from pulse exposures to the widely used insecticide malathion, and that mitigation increases with macrophyte density. However, whether these results scale up to more complex aquatic communities where ecological interactions such as competition can alter toxicity is unknown. Further, macrophyte abilities to mitigate different insecticide exposure scenarios (i.e. single versus repeated pulses) have never been tested. To address these gaps, we performed a factorial mesocosm experiment examining the influence of four macrophyte treatments (0, 10, 50, or 100 Elodea Canadensis shoots planted per mesocosm) crossed with three malathion exposure scenarios (no insecticide, single pulse, repeated pulses) on aquatic communities containing zooplankton, phytoplankton, periphyton, two snail species, and larval amphibians. In the absence of macrophytes, single malathion pulses caused short-term declines in cladoceran abundance followed by their rapid recovery, which precluded any indirect effects (i.e. trophic cascades). However, repeated malathion pulses caused cladoceran extinctions, resulting in persistent phytoplankton blooms and reduced abundance of one snail species. In contrast, with macrophytes present, even at low density, malathion had no effect on any taxa. We also discovered novel effects of macrophytes on the benthic food web. In the two highest macrophyte treatments, we observed trends of reduced periphyton biomass, decreased abundance of one snail species, and decreased amphibian time to and mass at metamorphosis. To our knowledge, this is the first evidence of negative submerged macrophyte effects on amphibians, a taxa of global conservation concern. Our findings suggest that facilitating macrophytes could be an important strategy for buffering freshwater communities from insecticides, though consideration of their impacts on animal species is necessary.
