丛枝菌根真菌对大气CO2浓度升高和增温响应研究进展

全球变化深刻影响着陆地生态系统生物多样性及生态功能。丛枝菌根(AM)真菌可与绝大多数陆生植物根系形成互惠共生体,在协助宿主养分吸收、促进植物生长、维持植物多样性等方面发挥着重要作用。本文主要分析了大气CO₂浓度升高(eCO₂)和增温对森林和草地生态系统AM真菌群落组成及其功能的影响。eCO₂主要通过影响宿主植物、土壤碳(C)输入等方式间接影响AM真菌,可增加AM真菌的多度和活性,影响AM真菌的多样性与群落组成。增温可直接或间接地(通过宿主植物和土壤途径)影响AM真菌,显著改变森林土壤AM真菌的群落组成,但对草地土壤AM真菌群落组成的影响尚无定论。我们提出了当前研究中存在的主要问题及未来应重点关注的内容。本文旨在明晰AM真菌对eCO₂和增温的响应和适应,增进对AM真菌介导的土壤生态功能的认识,为利用AM真菌缓解全球变化、增强土壤功能的韧性和全球变化的生态系统适应性提供依据。

植物磷营养状况对丛枝菌根真菌生长及代谢活性的调控*

采用四室隔网培养装置,以玉米为宿主植物,通过在植物生长室设0、50、250和500 mgPkg-1 4个施磷水平,研究了植株体内的磷营养状况对AM真菌Glomus sinuosum和Glomus intraradices生长及活性的影响。研究发现在不施磷条件下,接种AM真菌G. intraradices显著促进了植物生长和磷的吸收;低磷条件(50 mgPkg-1)下,接种菌根真菌显著促进了植物对磷的吸收,但对植物生长没有明显的影响;而在高磷条件(250 mgPkg-1 和500 mgPkg-1)下,接种菌根真菌不但没有促进植物的生长和磷的吸收,反而对其有抑制作用。随着施磷水平的提高, AM真菌根内菌丝的碱性磷酸酶活性显著下降;与不施磷相比,低量(50 mgPkg-1)供磷增加了AM真菌土壤中根外菌丝的密度,高磷(250 mgPkg-1 和500 mgPkg-1)降低了土壤中根外菌丝的密度。上述结果说明:⑴ 给宿主植物施用磷肥引起的植物磷营养状况的改变,对AM真菌生长和代谢活性具有一定的调控作用;⑵ G. sinuosum和G. intraradices两种AM真菌的生长和代谢活性对施磷水平的响应程度无显著性差异;⑶ 高磷抑制AM真菌生长和代谢活性,使真菌吸磷量减少,可能是造成菌根效应降低的原因之一     

丛枝菌根真菌多样性对植物群落构建和稀有种维持的研究进展

丛枝菌根(AM)是植物与微生物联系中最为古老的共生体,全球范围内约80%的陆生植物与AM真菌共生形成丛枝菌根。这一共生关系在气候稳定和土壤磷贫瘠的热带、亚热带森林中更为普遍。以往的研究表明AM真菌通过提高植物对磷的吸收促进植物生长和定植,即产生植物-土壤正反馈。植物-土壤正反馈可降低由土壤病原菌引起的植物-土壤负反馈,进而降低植物-土壤负反馈维持植物多样性的能力,这与热带、亚热带森林中极高的植物多样性以及占比惊人的稀有种相悖。随着对热带、亚热带森林中AM真菌多样性研究的不断深入,越来越多的研究发现AM真菌多样性在不同的生境条件下以及不同的宿主植物间存在较大差异,这些差异可引起植物适合度的不同,进而影响植物群落构建。该文整合了AM真菌在宿主植物群落构建、宿主植物共存及稀有种维持等方面的研究进展,以期为验证“稀有种优势”假说提出新的研究思路,进而更有效地保护稀有植物。

AM fungi root colonization increases the production of essential isoprenoids vs. nonessential isoprenoids especially under drought stress conditions or after jasmonic acid application

Previous studies have shown that root colonization by arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) fungi enhances plant resistance to abiotic and biotic stressors and finally plant growth. However, little is known about the effect of AM on isoprenoid foliar and root content. In this study we tested whether the AM symbiosis affects carbon resource allocation to different classes of isoprenoids such as the volatile nonessential isoprenoids (monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes) and the non-volatile essential isoprenoids (abscisic acid, chlorophylls and carotenoids). By subjecting the plants to stressors such as drought and to exogenous application of JA, we wanted to test their interaction with AM symbiosis in conditions where isoprenoids usually play a role in resistance to stress and in plant defence. Root colonization by AM fungi favoured the leaf production of essential isoprenoids rather than nonessential ones, especially under drought stress conditions or after JA application. The increased carbon demand brought on by AM fungi might thus influence not only the amount of carbon allocated to isoprenoids, but also the carbon partitioning between the different classes of isoprenoids, thus explaining the not previously shown decrease of root volatile isoprenoids in AM plants. We propose that since AM fungi are a nutrient source for the plant, other carbon sinks normally necessary to increase nutrient uptake can be avoided and therefore the plant can devote more resources to synthesize essential isoprenoids for plant growth.     

The role of arbuscular mycorrhizas in decreasing aluminium phytotoxicity in acidic soils: a review

Soil acidity is an impediment to agricultural production on a significant portion of arable land worldwide. Low productivity of these soils is mainly due to nutrient limitation and the presence of high levels of aluminium (Al), which causes deleterious effects on plant physiology and growth. In response to acidic soil stress, plants have evolved various mechanisms to tolerate high concentrations of Al in the soil solution. These strategies for Al detoxification include mechanisms that reduce the activity of Al³⁺ and its toxicity, either externally through exudation of Al-chelating compounds such as organic acids into the rhizosphere or internally through the accumulation of Al–organic acid complexes sequestered within plant cells. Additionally, root colonization by symbiotic arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi increases plant resistance to acidity and phytotoxic levels of Al in the soil environment. In this review, the role of the AM symbiosis in increasing the Al resistance of plants in natural and agricultural ecosystems under phytotoxic conditions of Al is discussed. Mechanisms of Al resistance induced by AM fungi in host plants and variation in resistance among AM fungi that contribute to detoxifying Al in the rhizosphere environment are considered with respect to altering Al bioavailability.     

丛枝菌根对有机污染土壤的修复作用及机理

Developing and quantifying indicators of organic farming using analytic hierarchy process

Although regulations and criteria relating to organic farming are clearly defined by the relevant agencies, especially by IFOAM, some have been overshadowed by attention to others and have lost their significance over time. The aim of this study was to develop and quantify organic farming indicators to determine the relative importance of each. The desired indicators were collected during a literature review of scientific resources about the principles of organic farming. These indices were classified into four categories and their weights were determined through interviews with experts on organic agriculture, including university professors, agroecology students, Ministry of Agriculture experts, organic farming inspectors and organic farmers. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used for this purpose. The results showed that pest and disease management, yield, soil nutrient management, water consumption rate, chemical fertilizer consumption rate and the use of transgenic materials having weights of 0.16, 0.098, 0.096, 0.08, 0.071 and 0.059, respectively, and are the most important indicators for development and assessment of organic farming. In this as well as similar studies, the weight of indicators associated with consumption of chemical fertilizers and pesticides were relatively high. This indicates the importance of rules related to the use of chemicals in organic farming; however, each index has a certain weight and none can be overlooked. All indicators should be considered as an inseparable set and all should be used in the development of organic farming. The results of this study can be useful for both inspection bodies and organic farmers. Farmers can reduce the risks associated with transitioning to organic farming and minimize the probability of failure by monitoring these indicators in their fields.     

丛枝菌根共生体中碳、氮代谢及其相互关系

Rhizobium-Legume Symbiosis and Nitrogen Fixation under Severe Conditions and in an Arid Climate

Biological N₂ fixation represents the major source of N input in agricultural soils including those in arid regions. The major N₂-fixing systems are the symbiotic systems, which can play a significant role in improving the fertility and productivity of low-N soils. The Rhizobium-legume symbioses have received most attention and have been examined extensively. The behavior of some N₂-fixing systems under severe environmental conditions such as salt stress, drought stress, acidity, alkalinity, nutrient deficiency, fertilizers, heavy metals, and pesticides is reviewed. These major stress factors suppress the growth and symbiotic characteristics of most rhizobia; however, several strains, distributed among various species of rhizobia, are tolerant to stress effects. Some strains of rhizobia form effective (N₂-fixing) symbioses with their host legumes under salt, heat, and acid stresses, and can sometimes do so under the effect of heavy metals. Reclamation and improvement of the fertility of arid lands by application of organic (manure and sewage sludge) and inorganic (synthetic) fertilizers are expensive and can be a source of pollution. The Rhizobium-legume (herb or tree) symbiosis is suggested to be the ideal solution to the improvement of soil fertility and the rehabilitation of arid lands and is an important direction for future research.     

Potentials of termite mound soil bacteria in ecosystem engineering for sustainable agriculture

The environmental deteriorating effects arising from the misuse of pesticides and chemical fertilizers in agriculture has resulted in the pursuit of eco-friendly means of producing agricultural produce without compromising the safety of the environment. Thus, the purpose of this review is to assess the potential of bacteria in termite mound soil to serve as biofertilizer and biocontrol as a promising tool for sustainable agriculture. This review has been divided into four main sections: termite and termite mound soils, bacterial composition in termite mound soil, the role of bacteria in termite mound soil as biofertilizers, and the role of bacteria in termite mound soil as biocontrol. Some bacteria in termite mound soils have been isolated and characterized by various means, and these bacteria could improve the fertility of the soil and suppress soil borne plant pathogens through the production of antibiotics, nutrient fixation, and other means. These bacteria in termite mound soils could serve as a remarkable means of reducing the reliance on the usage of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in farming, thereby increasing crop yield.
