土壤氮素异质性分布和马先蒿寄生对长芒棒头草生长发育及根系分布的影响

无论在农田还是自然生态系统中,土壤养分异质性普遍存在。植物具有感知土壤养分异质性的能力,并通过调节根系生物量分配及空间分布以获取更多资源。了解寄生胁迫在不同养分条件下对寄主生长发育及根系空间分布的影响,对解析寄主应对寄生胁迫和养分胁迫的适应策略,进而指导寄生性杂草防控具有重要的指导意义。该文采用分根试验,通过对寄主分根,并控制根室两侧氮供应水平及寄生胁迫程度,考察了氮胁迫及两种寄主依赖程度不同的马先蒿的寄生对寄主长芒棒头草生长发育及根系空间分布的影响。结果表明:(1)土壤氮水平与马先蒿寄生均可显著影响长芒棒头草生物量及根冠比,并且两者之间存在显著交互作用,其中土壤氮水平为主要影响因子。(2)两种马先蒿对长芒棒头草的危害程度不同。在NPK和2NPK 处理时,三色马先蒿的寄生显著降低长芒棒头草生物量(茎叶:37.1%、51.5%; 根系:35.6%、63.6%); 在NPK处理时,大王马先蒿的寄生显著增加长芒棒头草生物量(茎叶:29.9%,根系:61.2%)。(3)长芒棒头草的根系生长和空间分布受氮营养的异质分布和寄生的影响,具有明显的感知养分空间分布及调节根系生长能力。     

基于稳定氧同位素确定植物水分来源不同方法的比较

利用稳定同位素技术确定植物水分来源,对提高生态水文过程的认识和对干旱半干旱区的生态管理至关重要。目前基于稳定同位素技术确定植物水分来源的方法众多,但不同方法之间对比的研究较少。本研究基于原位样品采集,室内实验测试,利用直接对比法、多元线性混合模型(IsoSource)、贝叶斯混合模型(MixSIR、MixSIAR)和吸水深度模型分析植物水分来源,并对比各方法的优缺点。结果表明:相对于多元线性混合模型(IsoSource)而言,贝叶斯混合模型(MixSIR、MixSIAR)具有更好的水源区分性能,但对数据要求较高,且植物木质部水和潜在水源同位素组成的标准差越小,模型运行结果的可信度更高。本研究中贝叶斯混合模型(MixSIR)为最优解。在利用稳定氢氧同位素技术确定植物水分来源时,可先通过直接对比法定性判断植物可能利用的潜在水源,然后再用多元线性混合模型(IsoSource)、贝叶斯混合模型(MixSIR、MixSIAR)计算出各潜在水源对植物的贡献率和贡献范围,必要时可评估模型性能,选择出最优模型,定量分析植物的水分来源。若植物主要吸收利用不同土层深度的土壤水,可结合吸水深度模型计算出植物吸收土壤水的平均深度。本研究为干旱半干旱地区利用同位素技术确定植物水分来源方法的选择提供了理论依据。

基于生态系统服务供需的雄安新区生态网络构建与优化

城市生态网络构建是城市生态系统服务有效发挥作用的保障,构建完善的生态网络对于城市生态格局的优化具有重要的意义。结合雄安新区总体规划,通过雄安新区生态系统服务供给、需求两个层面识别生态源地。基于源地-缓冲区-廊道-节点框架,构建新区生态网络。其中,基于生态源地与城镇用地驱动因子,运用最小累积阻力方法得到累积阻力差,构建新区三生空间布局。根据成本距离分析和路径分析,结合雄安新区规划绿带分布,生成生态廊道,并在廊道与廊道交汇点、重要生态功能与脆弱的关键点以及道路轨道交汇点识别生态节点。得出：（1）新区生态源地主要位于白洋淀、公园绿地与其他绿地,分为水域生态源和林地生态源两类生态源地,面积总共728 km²。城镇源地主要位于新区东部容城县与雄县城区以及一些零星的农村居民点区域,面积为166 km²。（2）在新区三生空间布局下,加强生态廊道的构建,提升生态源地之间、生态源地与城镇源地之间的连通性,新区生态廊道主要依赖河流廊道和林地廊道两种类型。（3）在新区未来生态网络的建设中,需要重点关注河流廊道交汇点、河流廊道与城区的交汇处、交通道路与生态用地交汇处等的生态节点的建设及其生态功能的提升。

Innovative development of membrane sparger for carbon dioxide supply in microalgae cultures

The present study was aimed to develop a membrane sparger (MS) integrated into a tubular photobioreactor to promote the increase of the carbon dioxide (CO₂) fixation by Spirulina sp. LEB 18 cultures. The use of MS for the CO₂ supply in Spirulina cultures resulted not only in the increase of DIC concentrations but also in the highest accumulated DIC concentration in the liquid medium (127.4 mg L⁻¹ d⁻¹). The highest values of biomass concentration (1.98 g L⁻¹), biomass productivity (131.8 mg L⁻¹ d⁻¹), carbon in biomass (47.9% w w⁻¹), CO₂ fixation rate (231.6 mg L⁻¹ d⁻¹), and CO₂ use efficiency (80.5% w w⁻¹) by Spirulina were verified with MS, compared to the culture with conventional sparger for CO₂ supply. Spirulina biomass in both culture conditions had high protein contents varying from 64.9 to 69% (w w⁻¹). MS can be considered an innovative system for the supply of carbon for the microalgae cultivation and biomass production. Moreover, the use of membrane system might contribute to increased process efficiency with a reduced cost of biomass production.     

Larval rearing of fringe-lipped carp,Labeo fimbriatus (Bloch) with low cost diets including green bottle fly Lucilia sericata (Meigen) larvae meal incorporated diet

A study was conducted with non-conventional ingredients to test their efficacy as fishmeal (FM) replacers in the diet of fringe- lipped carp. Labeo fimbriatus first feeding larvae and fry were reared for 30 and 60 days in indoor, 50 L, aerated, circular plastic tanks at 100 and 30 numbers tank⁻¹, respectively. In the first feeding larvae to fry rearing experiment (Exp. 1), the fish were fed with either of the following isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets – live plankton, FM diet, green bottle fly (Lucilia sericata) larvae meal (GBFLM) diet and silkworm pupa (SWP) diet. The fry to fingerling rearing (Exp. 2), was also conducted using the same diets described above except live plankton. All compounded diets were formulated to contain 40% crude protein for the experiment 1 and 35% for experiment 2 and were fed ad libitum. Triplicate tanks were maintained for each treatment in both the experiments. In Exp. 1, the mean final weight of fry was higher with plankton and FM diets, while no difference (p > .05) was observed between FM and GBFLM diets. Weight of fish fed SWP diets was not statistically different from those fed GBFLM diet. No difference (p > .05) in final length, survival and condition factor was recorded. Analysis of digestive enzyme activity of whole fish revealed lower (p < .05) activity of amylase in fish fed plankton. In Exp. 2, no difference (p > .05) was observed between the different diet groups in terms of mean final weight, length, survival and condition factor. Analysis of digestive enzyme activity of whole fish revealed no difference (p > .05) in the activity of digestive enzymes between the treatments except a lower (p < .05) activity of trypsin in FM diet and lipase in FM and GBFLM diets. Since the survival and condition factors of animals is the most important aspect during nursery rearing, similar (p > .05) values recorded in different treatments indicate the possibility of incorporation of these non-conventional protein sources in the diet of L. fimbriatus during first feeding larvae to fry and fry to fingerling rearing.     

环境有机碳源抑制食弧菌嗜盐噬菌弧菌(Halobacteriovorax vibrionivorans)的捕食生长

【背景】蛭弧菌类群(Bdellovibrio-And-Like Organisms,BALOs)的生长所需碳源主要来源于宿主菌,而环境中各类碳源对其生长的影响还有待探究。【目的】探究不同环境有机碳源对食弧菌嗜盐噬菌弧菌(Halobacteriovorax vibrionivorans)捕食生长的影响,为其后续捕食机制和微生物菌剂的应用研究提供理论基础。【方法】以溶藻弧菌(Vibrio alginolyticus)为宿主,采用96孔板测定细胞吸光度法和双层平板法测定不同糖类化合物、酵母提取物和胰蛋白胨对食弧菌嗜盐噬菌弧菌Y22捕食生长的影响,设置热致死宿主和活宿主、人工海水和Tris-HCl (25 g/L NaCl)培养体系的对比试验,结合菌株基因组信息分析,探索其可能的生长影响机制。【结果】食弧菌嗜盐噬菌弧菌Y22不具备转运外界糖类的相关基因,不能利用环境中的糖类物质作为碳源;宿主溶藻弧菌可以利用蔗糖、麦芽糖、甘露醇生长且产酸,降低人工海水混合培养体系的pH值,从而抑制菌株Y22的捕食;葡萄糖不仅可以改变人工海水混合培养体系的pH值,而且可影响宿主的细胞特性,抑制菌株Y22的捕食识别过程;宿主无法利用淀粉、α-乳糖生长,该类碳源不影响菌株Y22捕食生长。菌株Y22具有蛋白和多肽膜转运蛋白基因,可以通过分解并摄取宿主细胞蛋白质类物质以获取碳源和氮源。外源添加质量浓度为1-5 g/L酵母提取物和胰蛋白胨都会抑制菌株Y22捕食生长,抑制效果随浓度增加而加强,酵母提取物浓度超过4g/L、胰蛋白胨浓度超过5g/L,菌株Y22捕食现象几乎不可见,抑制效果最强。【结论】环境中糖类可通过影响宿主菌代谢产酸或细胞特性,从而影响食弧菌嗜盐噬菌弧菌的捕食生长。食弧菌嗜盐噬菌弧菌可以吸收利用环境中的蛋白或多肽,并因此抑制其捕食生长。该研究结果将为嗜盐噬菌弧菌捕食机制的进一步探究和嗜盐噬菌弧菌微生物菌剂的开发应用提供重要的理论基础。     

Assessing the faecal source sensitivity and specificity of ruminant and human genetic microbial source tracking markers in the central Ethiopian highlands

This study tested genetic microbial source tracking (MST) methods for identifying ruminant- (BacR) and human-associated (HF183/BacR287, BacHum) bacterial faecal contaminants in Ethiopia in a newly created regional faecal sample bank (n = 173). BacR performed well, and its marker abundance was high (100% sensitivity (Sens), 95% specificity (Spec), median log₁₀ 8·1 marker equivalents (ME) g⁻¹ ruminant faeces). Human-associated markers tested were less abundant in individual human samples (median: log₁₀ 5·4 and 4·2 (ME + 1) g⁻¹) and were not continuously detected (81% Sens, 91% Spec for BacHum; 77% Sens, 91% Spec for HF183/BacR287). Furthermore, the pig-associated Pig2Bac assay was included and performed excellent (100% Sens, 100% Spec). To evaluate the presence of MST targets in the soil microbiome, representative soil samples were tested during a whole seasonal cycle (n = 60). Only BacR could be detected, but was limited to the dry season and to sites of higher anthropogenic influence (log₁₀ 3·0 to 4·9 (ME + 1) g⁻¹ soil). In conclusion, the large differences in marker abundances between target and non-target faecal samples (median distances between distributions ≥log₁₀ 3 to ≥log₁₀ 7) and their absence in pristine soil indicate that all tested assays are suitable candidates for diverse MST applications in the Ethiopian area.
