【背景】多环芳烃(Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons,PAHs)是一类高毒性的有机污染物,在海洋环境尤其是沿海环境中广泛分布。海草床生态系统作为沿海环境的重要组成部分,深受环境污染等人类活动的影响而处于严重衰退的状态。微生物修复是修复环境中多环芳烃污染的重要途径,具有经济简便、环境友好和无二次污染等特点。【目的】从深圳市大亚湾的海草床沉积物中筛选获得高效多环芳烃降解菌,并分析其降解特性,从而探究海草床生态系统中多环芳烃污染物的微生物修复可行性。【方法】以多环芳烃菲为唯一碳源从海草床沉积物样品中筛选菌株,再通过形态学观察、生理生化实验和16SrRNA基因序列对筛选的菌株进行鉴定,并利用特定引物扩增多环芳烃降解的功能基因——双加氧酶(nidA)基因,最后通过培养实验分析该菌株对菲的降解特性。【结果】筛选出一株高效降解菲的菌株SCSIO 43702,经鉴定为玫瑰杆菌属(Roseovarius)的潜在新菌,并成功扩增得到双加氧酶相似(nidA like)基因;培养实验结果表明,玫瑰杆菌SCSIO 43702在10 d内对100 mg/L菲的降解率最高可达96%,而且其对菲的最适降解条件为:温度30°C、pH值7.5和8.0、盐度3%。【结论】玫瑰杆菌SCSIO 43702凭借其良好的菲降解能力和较强的环境适应性,具有进一步被开发为微生物菌剂以用于多环芳烃污染修复的巨大潜力,为海草床生态系统中多环芳烃污染的微生物修复研究提供了理论依据和可利用的微生物资源。     

福田红树林湿地生态系统EWE模型构建

以福田红树林湿地生态系统为研究对象,将其生物组成分为红树植物、底栖动物、浮游植物、浮游动物、鸟类和碎屑等15个功能组,运用Ecopath with Ecosim(EWE)软件,构建了福田红树林湿地生态系统的EWE模型,探讨了红树林湿地生态系统的状态、特征及不同物种之间的营养关系,并评价红树林湿地生态系统当前的健康状况。分析表明,福田红树林湿地生态系统能流的最主要来源是碎屑,能流主要在营养级Ⅰ到Ⅳ之间流动,转化效率最高发生在第Ⅰ和第Ⅱ营养级之间(28.8%),总体转化效率为11.2%,且系统对营养级Ⅱ的利用最为充分。处于低营养级的功能组在系统能量传递的过程中起着非常关键的作用,并且对整个系统的影响强烈。生态系统总体特征参数生物量/总流量(TB/TT)、连接指数(CI)和系统杂食性指数(SOI)分别为0.163、0.123和0.018,综合分析表明,福田红树林湿地生态系统目前有退化的趋势。     

红树林厌氧环境对多环芳烃类有毒物的降解预测

红树林是连接陆地和海洋的重要生态系统,由于潮汐活动,氧化还原条件表现出明显的昼夜间的交替,这一生态体系中不但有大量的动植物种类,同时还有数量极高的不同种类的细菌,包括好氧和厌氧类型,厌养的硫酸(盐)还原菌已证实在降解多环芳烃有机物方面有其独特的生化优势,但从红树林中分离出的此类纯细菌还很少,在降解方面,已初步确定萘的厌氧降解途径异于好氧细菌,厌氧降解时的一系列代谢中间产物也有明显的专一性,羰基化反应是开始的一个重要步骤,而后的每步生化反应还有待进一步验证。从现有的结果可以看出,红树林中厌养的硫酸还原菌应在降解多环芳烃有机物中起到非常重要的作用。

由于环境中的多环芳烃(PAHs)具有高遗传毒性和"三致"性(致癌、致畸和致突变),其生物降解基因和降解功能酶研究备受关注.多环芳烃双加氧酶是近年来研究较多的多环芳烃降解的关键酶系之一,主要由细菌产生,可通过氧化反应使多环芳烃开环生成小分子的中间产物并最终氧化成CO2和水.目前,有关这类酶的理化性质、结构特点、功能等的研究相继开展,本文对PAHs降解基因、降解酶的研究现状与发展趋势进行综述.     

细菌Rieske非血红素铁环羟化酶在多环芳烃降解中的研究进展

多环芳烃是一种常见的持久性有机污染物,因具有致癌、致突变等毒性而被广泛关注。其微生物降解过程通常由羟化起始,随后脱氢、开环、一步步去除支链,最终进入三羧酸循环。Rieske 非血红素铁环羟化酶(Rieske-type non-heme iron aromatic ring-hydroxylating oxygenases , RHOs , 又称 aromatic ring-hydroxylating dioxygenases) 或细胞色素 P450 氧化酶负责将羟基加成到多环芳烃环上,将疏水性的多环芳烃转化为亲水性的衍生物,这一过程是多环芳烃降解转化的起始步骤,也是关键步骤和限速步骤之一。文中主要介绍 RHOs 的分布、底物特异性、底物识别机制以及研究 RHOs 与多环芳烃的一些技术和方法等,并对 RHOs 在环境修复技术中的潜在应用进行了展望。

Stable isotope probing identifies anthracene degraders under methanogenic conditions

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are common contaminants in groundwater. The remediation of PAH-contaminated groundwater often involves anaerobic biodegradation. The knowledge about the microorganisms responsible for PAH degradation in anaerobic subsurface environment is still lacking. DNA-based stable isotope probing (SIP) was applied to discover the microorganisms responsible for anaerobic anthracene degradation within microcosms inoculated with aquifer sediment from landfill leachate-contaminated site. Three phylotypes were identified as the degraders, all falling within the phylum Proteobacteria. Two anthracene degraders were classified within the genera Methylibium and Legionella, while another one was an unclassified Rhizobiales species. They all were first linked to PAH degradation. These findings also provide an illustration of the utility of SIP to discover the roles of uncultured microorganisms in PAH-degrading processes.     

Microbial populations related to PAH biodegradation in an aged biostimulated creosote-contaminated soil

A previous bioremediation survey on a creosote-contaminated soil showed that aeration and optimal humidity promoted depletion of three-ringed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), but residual concentrations of four-ringed benzo(a)anthracene (B(a)A) and chrysene (Chry) remained. In order to explain the lack of further degradation of heavier PAHs such as four-ringed PAHs and to analyze the microbial population responsible for PAH biodegradation, a chemical and microbial molecular approach was used. Using a slurry incubation strategy, soil in liquid mineral medium with and without additional B(a)A and Chry was found to contain a powerful PAH-degrading microbial community that eliminated 89% and 53% of the added B(a)A and Chry, respectively. It is hypothesized that the lack of PAH bioavailability hampered their further biodegradation in the unspiked soil. According to the results of the culture-dependent and independent techniques Mycobacterium parmense, Pseudomonas mexicana, and Sphingobacterials group could control B(a)A and Chry degradation in combination with several microorganisms with secondary metabolic activity.     

Bacterial Diversity of a Consortium Degrading High-Molecular-Weight Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in a Two-Liquid Phase Biosystem

High-molecular-weight (HMW) polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are pollutants that persist in the environment due to their low solubility in water and their sequestration by soil and sediments. Although several PAH-degrading bacterial species have been isolated, it is not expected that a single isolate would exhibit the ability to degrade completely all PAHs. A consortium composed of different microorganisms can better achieve this. Two-liquid phase (TLP) culture systems have been developed to increase the bioavailability of poorly soluble substrates for uptake and biodegradation by microorganisms. By combining a silicone oil–water TLP system with a microbial consortium capable of degrading HMW PAHs, we previously developed a highly efficient PAH-degrading system. In this report, we characterized the bacterial diversity of the consortium with a combination of culture-dependent and culture-independent methods. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of part of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) sequences combined with denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis was used to monitor the bacterial population changes during PAH degradation of the consortium when pyrene, chrysene, and benzo[a]pyrene were provided together or separately in the TLP cultures. No substantial changes in bacterial profiles occurred during biodegradation of pyrene and chrysene in these cultures. However, the addition of the low-molecular-weight PAHs phenanthrene or naphthalene in the system favored one bacterial species related to Sphingobium yanoikuyae. Eleven bacterial strains were isolated from the consortium but, interestingly, only one—IAFILS9 affiliated to Novosphingobium pentaromativorans—was capable of growing on pyrene and chrysene as sole source of carbon. A 16S rDNA library was derived from the consortium to identify noncultured bacteria. Among 86 clones screened, 20 were affiliated to different bacterial species–genera. Only three strains were represented in the screened clones. Eighty-five percent of clones and strains were affiliated to Alphaproteobacteria and Betaproteobacteria; among them, several were affiliated to bacterial species known for their PAH degradation activities such as those belonging to the Sphingomonadaceae. Finally, three genes involved in the degradation of aromatic molecules were detected in the consortium and two in IAFILS9. This study provides information on the bacterial composition of a HWM PAH-degrading consortium and its dynamics in a TLP biosystem during PAH degradation.     

Effect of Exposure Time,Contamination Level,and Type of PAH Compound on Biodegradation Capacity of Mangrove Sediment

Mangrove sediment had high natural attenuation potential with more than 50% of total PAHs being removed within 15 days. The efficiency in degrading PAHs varied with the declining order of phenanthrene (Phe), fluoranthene (Fla), and pyrene (Pyr). The Most Probable Number (MPN) of PAH-degrading bacteria in the PAH-contaminated slurries was 2 to 4 orders of magnitude higher than that in the non-contaminated mangrove slurries. The biodegradation ability of the indigenous microbial community in mangrove sediment slurry was significantly increased after exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Such enhancement effect was dependent on the level and time of exposure, as well as the types of PAH compounds. The lowest contamination level of 3 mg kg^?1 was effective in promoting the degradation of Phe and Fla after seven days, but the enhancement effect for Pyr degradation was only found in the slurries exposed to contamination levels of 9 mg kg^?1 for 30 days, suggesting a threshold concentration of PAHs to stimulate growth and activity of pyrene-degrading bacteria. The contamination level higher than the threshold concentration did not lead to more degradation. The present study provides insights into the natural attenuation of PAH-contaminated mangrove sediments.     

Using population dynamics analysis by DGGE to design the bacterial consortium isolated from mangrove sediments for biodegradation of PAHs

There are many PAH-degrading bacteria in mangrove sediments and in order to explore their degradation potential, surface sediment samples were collected from a mangrove area in Fugong, Longhai, Fujian Province of China. A total of 53 strains of PAH-degrading bacteria were isolated from the mangrove sediments, consisting of 14 strains of phenanthrene (Phe), 13 strains of pyrene (Pyr), 13 strains of benzo[a]pyrene (Bap) and 13 strains of mixed PAH (Phe + Pyr + Bap)-degrading bacteria. All of the individual colonies were identified by 16S rDNA sequencing. Based on the information of bacterial PCR-DGGE profiles obtained during enrichment batch culture, Phe, Pyr, Bap and mixed PAH-degrading consortia consisted of F1, F2, F3, F4 and F15 strains, B1, B3, B6, B7 and B13 strains, P1, P2, P3, P5 and P7 strains, M1, M2, M4, M12 and M13 strains, respectively. In addition, the degradation ability of these consortia was also determined. The results showed that both Phe and mixed PAH-degrading consortia had the highest ability to degrade the Phe in a liquid medium, with more than 91% being degraded in 3 days. But the biodegradation percentages of Pyr by Pyr-degrading consortium and Bap by Bap-degrading consortium were relatively lower than that of the Phe-degrading consortium. These results suggested that a higher degradation of PAHs depended on both the bacterial consortium present and the type of PAH compound. Moreover, using the bacterial community structure analysis method, where the consortia consist of different PAH-degrading bacteria, the information from the PCR-DGGE profiles could be used in the bioremediation of PAHs in the future.     

Monitoring nutrient impact on bacterial community composition during bioremediation of anoxic PAH-contaminated sediment

Marine harbor sediments are frequently polluted with significant amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) some of which are naturally toxic, recalcitrant, mutagenic, and carcinogenic. To stimulate biodegradation of PAHs in PAH-contaminated sediments collected from near Gwangyang Bay, Korea, lactate was chosen as a supplementary carbonaceous substrate. Sediment packed into 600 ml air-tight jar was either under no treatment condition or lactate amended condition (1%, w/v). Microbial community composition was monitored by bacteria-specific and archaea-specific PCR-terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP), in addition to measuring the residual PAH concentration. Results showed that lactate amendment enhanced biodegradation rate of PAHs in the sediment by 4 to 8 times, and caused a significant shift in archaebacterial community in terms of structure and diversity with time. Phylogenetic analysis of 23 archaeal clones with distinctive RFLP patterns among 288 archaeal clones indicated that majority of the archaeal members were closest to unculturable environmental rDNA clones from hydrocarbon-contaminated and/or methanogenesis-bearing sediments. Lactate amendment led to the enrichment of some clones that were most closely related to PAH-degrading Methanosarcina species. These results suggest a possible contribution of methanogenic community to PAH degradation and give us more insights on how to effectively remediate PAH-contaminated sediments.     

低分子有机酸对土壤中菲降解及细菌群落结构的影响

多环芳烃是一类普遍存在于环境中的持久性有机污染物,其通过食物链进入生态系统,直接危害人类健康和整个生态系统的安全。为探讨低分子有机酸对土壤中菲降解及细菌群落结构的影响,通过室内培养的方式研究了在添加不同种类有机酸处理下第0—180天土壤中菲含量的变化状况,并采用高通量Illumina Miseq技术分析了土壤细菌群落种类和数量的变化特征。结果表明,低分子有机酸对于土壤中菲的降解有明显的促进作用,由一级动力学方程得出乙酸对菲降解的促进作用最明显。从细菌群落结构来看,土壤细菌的数量及其多样性或许不是导致土壤菲降解的主要因素,反而特定的菲降解菌的丰度对菲降解有重要影响。添加低分子有机酸减少了细菌OTU数及细菌菌群多样性,但增加了PAHs降解菌的丰度。随着时间推移细菌总OTU数呈现下降趋势,独有种类数均呈现出先增长后下降的趋势。检测到了6种典型的菲降解菌,分别为:Bacillus、鞘氨醇单胞菌属、Massilia、Azospirillum、Burkholderia-paraburkholderia、红球菌。研究结果可为多环芳烃污染土壤的植物修复提供基础数据和科学参考。     

重金属污染对珠江口红树林表层沉积物碳含量的影响

湿地沉积物是红树林生态系统中重要的组成部分,其总有机碳储量的变化对红树林生态系统的固碳能力有着重要影响。现有对红树林湿地重金属的研究多集中于污染评价,鲜有涉及重金属含量对沉积物总有机碳（TOC）含量影响的研究。于2018-2019年期间4次前往珠江口典型红树林湿地,采集了0-30 cm表层土壤沉积物的样品,并测定其重金属含量和TOC含量,以探讨重金属含量变化对TOC的影响。结果表明,与广东地区的背景值相比,研究区沉积物重金属含量超标较为严重,重金属来源应是人类活动;沉积物的重金属含量能够显著影响TOC含量（P<0.01,R²=0.39）,间接对红树林湿地的固碳能力、甚至全球变暖产生一定影响;Cd、As、Zn含量高的沉积物环境有利于TOC的积累,Cu、Cr、Ni、Hg含量低的沉积物环境则不利于TOC的积累。沉积物的重金属对TOC的影响的机制是非常复杂的,它们可以通过影响土壤结构、土壤化学组分、土壤内微生物、上部植被群落的生长以及凋落物归还等一系列过程,导致沉积物TOC和固碳能力的变化。     

海岸带区域陆海统筹生态安全研究

海岸带既是区域经济发展的黄金地带，亦是陆海系统交互胁迫的敏感区域，快速城镇化与工业化导致海岸带关键生态系统服务受损、生态网络格局紊乱、珍稀物种安全保障空间萎缩等重大生态安全问题。以闽三角海岸带珍稀物种-栖息地系统为研究对象，从“多物种-多生境-多尺度”视角出发，基于陆海统筹理念系统评估了闽三角海岸带珍稀物种-栖息地系统的脆弱性，建立了基于物种水平的海岸带生态保护与修复网络，构建了海岸带陆海统筹生态安全“一张图”。研究结果表明：(1)高强度围填海驱动下，闽三角红树林与水鸟栖息地脆弱性显著增加，高脆弱区域主要集中于九龙江河口、厦门同安湾和泉州湾；(2)闽三角生态安全网络由12条水鸟迁徙廊道和11个生态节点组成，其中影响陆海统筹生态安全的生态节点4个，预警生态节点3个；(3)闽三角海岸带未来安全韧性生境(水鸟栖息地与文昌鱼、中国鲎低脆弱生境较密集的区域)分布于云霄红树林保护区、东山岛近岸、九龙江河口、厦门大嶝海域、围头湾、深沪湾。本研究能够为设计规划未来韧性海岸带“受损海水-滨海湿地-珍稀物种”一体化修复与保护的生态安全格局，保障陆海统筹生态安全提供理论支撑和一体化解决方案。     

西门岛人工秋茄林恢复对大型底栖生物的影响

选择乐清湾西门岛海域相同高程断面不同造林时间的人工红树林(秋茄林)、光滩和互花米草丛,采用空间代替时间的方法,分析我国分布最北界人工红树林造林过程对大型底栖生物的影响.大型底栖动物生活型分布基本表现为幼林(1、4、8a秋茄林)以底上附着型为主,而在光滩、50a秋茄林和互花米草中底下生活类群相对增加.并且穴居型动物只出现在发育成熟的生态系统内.各项指标显示50a老林群落生态稳定性较好,光滩和互花米草丛次之,但优于发育中的秋茄幼林.与以往研究结果不同,50a老林的大型底栖动物生物种类的丰度及群落的物种多样性最高,并不与红树林的发育状况呈负相关,也不比邻近光滩低.结合50a林下滩涂底泥情况,西门岛50a红树林林下滩涂的底质发育要落后于国内天然红树林土壤.这可能与当地红树林造林规模小以及强潮差海域有关.此外,红树林恢复过程中,大型底栖动物生物多样性与生态稳定性之间的线性关系,其适用的系统面积和演替时间的尺度范围有必要做更加深入的探讨.
