Changes and availability of P fractions following 65 years of P application to a calcareous soil in a Mediterranean climate

The fate and availability of P derived from granular fertilisers in an alkaline Calcarosol soil were examined in a 65-year field trial in a semi-arid environment (annual rainfall 325 mm). Sequential P fractionation was conducted in the soils collected from the trial plots receiving 0–12 kg P ha⁻¹crop⁻¹, and the rhizosphere soil after growing wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Yitpi) and chickpea (Cicer arietinum L. cv. Genesis 836) for one or two 60-day cycles in the glasshouse. Increasing long-term P application rate over 65 years significantly increased all inorganic P (Pi) fractions except HCl–Pi. By contrast, P application did not affect or tended to decrease organic P (Po) fractions. Increasing P application also increased Olsen-P and resin-P but decreased the P buffer capacity and sorption maxima. Residual P, Pi and Po fractions accounted for an average of 32, 16 and 52% of total P, respectively. All soil P fractions including residual P in the rhizosphere soil declined following 60-day growth of either wheat or chickpea. The decreases were greater in soils with a history of high P application than low P. An exception was water-extractable Po, which increased following plant growth. Changes in various P fractions in the rhizosphere followed the same pattern for both plant species. Biomass production and P uptake of the plants grown in the glasshouse correlated positively with the residual P and inorganic fractions (except HCl–Pi) but negatively with Po in the H₂O-, NaOH- and H₂SO₄-fractions of the original soils. The results suggest that the long-term application of fertiliser P to the calcareous sandy soil built up residual P and non-labile Pi fractions, but these P fractions are potentially available to crops.     

利用氮同位素技术探讨天津地表水氮污染

地表水的氮污染状况与水质、区域景观等密切相连。本文分析了天津地表水的三氮(NO3-N、NH4+-N、NO2-N)组成,以及部分水样NO3-N和NH4+-N的N同位素组成。结果显示:NO3-N的含量为0.01～16.51mg.L-1,均值为2.25mg.L-1,部分样品NO3-的含量超过50mg.L-1(以NO3-N计为11.29mg.L-1);NH4+-N的含量为0～10.60mg.L-1,均值为1.15mg.L-1,有1/4水样超过1.5mg.L-1;另外,在所有样品中有1/12水样有较高的NO2-N。NO3-N为大部分水样无机氮的主要形态,污水等部分水样以NH4+-N为主要形态。NO3-N同位素值的变化范围为-5.5‰～+28.6‰,均值为+9.0‰(n=49),中值为+8.5‰;NH4+-N同位素值的变化范围为-8.8‰～+34.3‰,均值+11.6‰(n=11),中值为+13.6‰。水化学和同位素结果分析表明,该区地表水的氮主要来源为生活污水,而且氮形态转化受硝化作用、挥发作用以及可能的反硝化作用影响明显。

Biological indices of toxicity in tropical legumes grown in oil-contaminated soil

This study evaluated the toxic effects of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) on growth of the legumes Crotalaria incana L. and Leucaena leucocephala Lam., and on the development of nitrogen-fixing soil microorganisms, using biological toxicity indices and the toxicity potential index (TPI_c), which enable comparison of effects of exposure time and concentration. Growth and biomass accumulation in both plant species decreased with high pollutant concentrations. The EC₅₀ and the NOEC were not identified for either species. The Phytotoxicity Relative Index showed that root length was most strongly affected by the oil, and the Impact Index on Nitrogen Fixer Microorganisms indicated that, despite damage to the root system, L. leucocephala rhizosphere bacteria doubled at 10,000 mg kg⁻¹ TPH after of 240 days of exposure. Finally, the TPI_c revealed that C. incana was more sensitive than L. leucocephala to chronic TPH toxicity and might strongly depend on beneficial soil bacteria.     

Two new spirooxindole alkaloids from rhizosphere strain Streptomyces sp. xzqh-9

Two new spirooxindole alkaloids spindomycins A (1) and B (2) were isolated from rhizosphere strain Streptomyces sp. xzqh-9. Their structures were elucidated by comprehensive spectroscopic analyses of NMR and MS data. The absolute configurations of 1 and 2 were determined by experimental and theoretical calculation of electronic circular dichroism (ECD). Antitumor, lactate dehydrogenase, and tyrosine kinase inhibitory activities of two compounds were evaluated, while only spindomycin B (2) exhibited weak inhibitory activity against tyrosine kinase Bcr-Abl.
