硒胁迫对小球藻光合色素含量和生长的影响

50 mg/L的硒胁迫下,小球藻中β-胡萝卜素、类叶黄素、叶绿素(叶绿素a、叶绿素b)的含量先明显增加,之后逐渐下降;而在800 mg/L硒胁迫下,各种光合色素含量均明显下降;小球藻活体细胞在693 nm处出现叶绿素a的吸收峰,其吸收值在硒胁迫后明显减弱;在室温荧光发射光谱中,700 nm处的发射峰随着硒浓度的增加而显著下降;荧光激发光谱表明:硒胁迫使小球藻的能量传递受阻,传递效率降低;藻体中水溶性蛋白含量随着硒胁迫的增强而下降.等离子体原子发射光谱(ICP-AES)研究结果表明:随着硒浓度增加,藻体中Mg2 、Ca2 、K 和Na 含量呈明显降低趋势,而培养液中这些离子的浓度则不断增加.

Effects of Selenium Stress on Photosynthetic Pigment Contents and Growth of Chlorella vulgaris

Changes in photosynthetic pigment and protein contents, growth and the spectral characteristics in Chlorella vulgaris in response to selenium stress were investigated. Carotenoids (beta-carotene and xanthophylls) and chlorophyll (Chl a and Chl b) contents in cells exposed to Se 50 mg/L increased primarily and decreased afterwards, while photosynthetic pigments in cells exposed to Se 800 mg/L decreased significantly. Chlorophyll (Chl) absorption peak at 693 nm and prominent Chl emission peak at 700 nm, weakened significantly after Se stress. The excitation spectra showed a decrease in excitation energy transfer efficiency in Se-stressed cells. Total soluble protein decreased after Se stress. The changes in total Se, Mg(2+), Ca(2+), K(+) and Na(+) concentrations in culture medium and cells were also determined by ICP-AES.
