不同程度铅锌污染区丛枝菌根真菌和深色有隔内生真菌侵染特征

对陕西凤县铅硐山铅锌矿区4个不同程度铅锌污染样地植物根系的丛枝菌根真菌(AMF)和深色有隔内生真菌(DSE)进行了资源和分布调查。结果表明:(1)无铅锌污染的矿山上调查的15种植物中除黄连木没有检测到AMF侵染、栓皮栎和酸模不能被DSE侵染外,其他植物均能与AMF和DSE共生,但平均侵染率较低,仅分别为32.3%和25.9%;铅锌轻度污染的尾矿荒地和铅中度污染、锌重度污染的尾矿坝植物根系内AMF和DSE侵染率明显提高,AMF的平均侵染率分别为53.3%和68.3%,DSE的平均侵染率分别为38.6%和54.2%;铅锌重度污染的废弃冶炼厂样地植物AMF侵染率明显下降,平均只有17.6%,而DSE的侵染没有受重金属污染的抑制,仍达到60.3%。(2)4个样地植物根际土壤中AMF孢子分布不均匀,每克土的孢子密度在0.08～6.84个,平均为1.5个。对4个样地均有分布的狼牙刺、博落回、山蒿和秦岭风毛菊的AMF、DSE侵染状况调查发现,轻度和中度的铅锌污染能促进AMF与宿主共生关系的建立,而重度污染则显著抑制AMF侵染;AMF孢子密度没有呈现一定的规律性,且与AMF侵染率之间没有显著相关性;DSE侵染率与土壤锌含量存在显著正相关关系(r=0.505,P<0.05),而与土壤铅含量没有显著相关性。可见,AMF和DSE能够广泛存在于铅硐山铅锌矿区,尤其是DSE表现出较强的耐受性和适应性。     

海南霸王岭热带雨林常见植物丛枝菌根真菌调查

对海南霸王岭热带雨林的12科16种常见植物的丛枝菌根状况进行了调查,用碱解离-酸性品红染色法进行了真菌鉴定。结果表明,13种植物形成典型的丛枝菌根,占所调查植物的81%;3种植物没有形成丛枝菌根,占所调查植物的19%。用湿筛沉淀法从这些植物根际土壤中共分离鉴定出了3属11种丛枝菌根真菌(AMF),即无梗囊霉属(Acaulos-pora)3种,球囊霉属(Glomus)7种,巨孢囊霉属(Gigaspora)1种;其中,球囊霉属是样地的优势属。在AMF中,孔窝无梗囊霉(A.foveata)分离频率最高,在14种植物的根际土中都有发现;此外,大果球囊霉(G.macrocarpum)的相对多度最大,为59%,具有最强的产孢能力。同时,在11种植物的根中发现了深色有隔内生真菌(DSE),占调查植物的69%;其中,11种植物同时被DSE和AMF感染。     

丛枝菌根真菌对羊草生物量和氮磷吸收及土壤碳的影响

采用大田试验的方法在内蒙古锡林格勒草原进行牧草接种试验,通过灭菌和未灭菌两种土壤研究接种丛枝菌根真菌Glomus mosseae和Glomus claroidium对内蒙古典型草原优势种羊草生长的影响.结果显示,接种丛枝菌根真菌对羊草的地上部干重未产生显著影响,但向未灭菌土壤中接种能显著增加羊草根系量,同时接种G.mosseae显著增加了地上部的N、P含量及吸收量,有效地改善了植株N、P营养,提高了牧草品质;2种菌对根系的营养吸收影响不同,接种G.mosseae在灭菌土壤和未灭菌土壤中均能显著增加根系的N、P吸收量,而接种G.claroidium仅在土壤未灭菌状态下增加根系N、P吸收量;接种对土壤中的菌丝密度未产生显著影响,但接种后土壤中微生物量碳有增加的趋势,短期内难以观察到接种对土壤有机碳的影响.研究表明,丛枝菌根真菌能够提高牧草对N、P吸收,促进牧草的生长,改善牧草品质,增强牧草根际微生物量碳.     

Interactions between Tamarix ramosissima (Saltcedar), Populus fremontii (Cottonwood), and Mycorrhizal Fungi: Effects on Seedling Growth and Plant Species Coexistence

Little is known about the composition and function of the mycorrhizal fungal community in riparian areas, or its importance in competitive interactions between Populus fremontii, a dominant tree in southwestern United States riparian forests which forms arbuscular and ectomycorrhizas, and Tamarix ramosissima, an introduced tree species that has spread into riparian areas. The objectives of this study were to determine the mycorrhizal status of Tamarixand to evaluate the effect of mycorrhizal fungal inoculation on Tamarix growth and on the coexistence between Tamarix and Populus.Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal colonization of Tamarix was very low in both field and greenhouse grown roots, but levels of colonization by dark septate endophytes were high. Fungal inoculation had little effect on Tamarix seedling growth in monoculture. When Populus and Tamarix were grown together in a greenhouse pot experiment, fungal inoculation reduced the height and biomass of Tamarix but had no effect on Populus. Fungal inoculation shifted coexistence ratios. When Tamarix and Populuswere grown together, Tamarixplants averaged 20 of pot biomass in the uninoculated control but only 5 of pot biomass in the inoculated treatment. These results indicate that Tamarix is non-mycotrophic and that in this greenhouse experiment inoculation altered patterns of coexistence between Populus and Tamarix.     

柑橘园土壤中丛枝菌根真菌土著菌株的促生效应研究

柑橘对丛枝菌根(AM)真菌具有较高的依赖性,从柑橘园土壤中分离筛选的高效促生AM真菌菌株具有重要的应用价值。本研究从广东增城柑橘园(酸橘砧‘红江橙’)土壤中分离的4个AM真菌土著菌株对‘红江橙’幼苗的促生效应。结果表明,4个土著菌株分别是Scutellospora属和Glomus属菌株,根系侵染率为12.7%～29.3%;与不接种对照相比,4个土著菌株不同程度地促进‘红江橙’幼苗的株高、生物量和N、P、K养分含量,菌根依赖性达9.4%～37.1%;主成分分析表明,土著菌株ZCSP-D的促生效应达到常用优良菌株Rhizophagus irregularis的水平。     

土壤铅和锌对植物根际丛枝菌根真菌分布的影响

从秦岭凤县铅锌污染区4种植物根际共鉴定出球囊霉属(Glomus)丛枝菌根真菌(Arbuscular mycorrhizal ungi,AMF)12种,其中缩球囊霉(G.constrictum)是该区域的优势种;缩球囊霉、副冠球囊霉(G.coronatum)、苏格兰球囊霉(G.caledonium)和聚丛球囊霉(G.aggregatum)对铅锌污染具有较强的耐性,而地球囊霉(G.geospo-rum)、台湾球囊霉(G.formosanum)、地表球囊霉(G.versiforme)和两型球囊霉(G.dimorphicum)对铅锌污染的耐性较弱.相关分析表明,土壤Pb、Zn、速效P浓度和pH较低时,对AMF丰度有一定的促进作用,当Pb、Zn、速效P浓度和pH较高时,对AMF丰度为抑制作用,AMF丰度与高浓度Pb呈极显著负相关,与高浓度速效P呈显著负相关.通径分析表明,Pb是影响秦岭重金属污染区AMF丰度的主要因素,其直接和间接作用都较大,而pH、速效P和Zn主要通过Pb的间接作用来影响AMF丰度.     

Arbuscular mycorrhiza and fungal root endophytes of weeds in an altitudinal gradient in the Pamir Alai Mountains of Central Asia

Arbuscular mycorrhiza and fungal root endophytes of three weeds, Galium tricornutum, Lycopsis orientalis and Scandix pecten-veneris, were studied in an altitudinal gradient of the Pamir Alai Mountains. Colonisation by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) was found in all species. Only in the case of G. tricornutum was there a rise in mycorrhizal parameters values found for the medium altitude range. Similar tendencies were observed in the case of the AMF colonisation potential assessment. This suggests that plant species' identity, dependency on symbiosis and interactions with soil properties determine root colonisation and the abundance of AMF in soils at the elevations in question. Four AMF species, Claroideoglomus claroideum, Funneliformis mosseae, Scutellospora dipurpurescens and Septoglomus constrictum, were isolated from trap cultures established on soil taken from under the weeds. Dark septate endophytes (DSE) accompanied the AMF in the roots of G. tricornutum and S. pecten-veneris; however, they were neither frequently occurring nor abundant. The sporangia of Olpidium spp. were observed with low frequency occurrence in G. tricornutum and S. pecten-veneris and more often in the roots of L. orientalis. However, in both cases, they were low in abundance. No differences were found for the presence of DSE and Olpidium in the altitudinal gradient.     

Wheat Responses to Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in a Highly Calcareous Soil Differ from those of Clover, and Change with Plant Development and P supply

We evaluated the roles of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in growth and phosphorus (P) nutrition of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in a highly calcareous soil and compared the responses of wheat with those of clover (Trifolium subterraneum L). In the first experiment wheat (cv. Brookton) was harvested at 6 wk. Colonisation by four AM fungi was low (<20%). Clover was harvested at 8 wk. Colonisation varied with different fungi, with the highest value (52%) obtained with Glomus intraradices. Although suffering from P deficiency, non-mycorrhizal (NM) wheat grew relatively well with no added P (P0) and application of P at 100 mg kg⁻¹ (P100) increased the dry weight (DW). Shoot P concentrations increased with P application and there were positive effects of all AM fungi at P100. In contrast, NM clover grew very poorly at P0 and did not respond to P application. Clover responded positively to all AM fungi at both P levels, associated with increases in P uptake. In the second experiment colonisation by a single AM fungus (G. intraradices) of two wheat cultivars (Brookton and Krichauff) was well established at 6 wk (~50% in P0 plants) and continued to increase up to maturity (~70%), but decreased greatly at both harvests as P supply was increased (up to 150 mg P kg⁻¹: P150). Addition of P significantly increased plant growth, grain yield and P uptake irrespective of cultivar and harvest time, and the optimum soil P for grain yield was P100. In both cultivars, a growth depression in AM plants occurred at 6 wk at all P levels, but disappeared at 19 wk with added P. At P0, AM plants also produced lower grain yield (weight) per plant, but with higher P, AM plants produced higher grain yields than NM plants. There was a significant positive effect of AM on grain P concentration at P0, but not at other P levels. Brookton was somewhat more P efficient than Krichauff, and the latter responded more to AM fungi. This study showed that responses of wheat to AM inoculation and P supply were quite different from those of clover, and changed during development. Results are discussed in relation to the underlying soil properties.     

Meta分析丛枝菌根真菌对草莓生长与果实特性的影响

丛枝菌根(Arbuscular mycorrhizal, AM)真菌通常具有促进植物生长,提高植物抗逆性的功能。然而AM真菌是否无论草莓生境如何,都一致性地调控草莓表型和果实特性仍未明确。本研究利用荟萃分析(Meta-analysis)方法,整合分析了AM真菌对草莓植株干重、根系结构、氮(N)和磷(P)含量、果实产量及特性的影响。结果表明,AM真菌能够显著增加草莓植株地上部和根部干重,促进草莓根系伸长和根表面积增加,调整草莓根系结构;显著增加了草莓植株地上部和根部N、P含量。其中摩西管柄囊霉(Funneliformis mosseae)能够促进草莓N、P吸收,增加植株生物量。AM真菌不仅提高草莓的果实数量和总产量,还能够促进果实中总花青素、总酚、黄酮类物质和抗坏血酸的积累,从而提高果实的抗氧化特性,而总可溶性固体(TSS)、可滴定酸度(TA)和TSS/TA比值未受到显著影响。本研究表明,AM真菌有利于促进草莓植株生长和果实增产,并且能够提高果实中抗氧化物质的含量,具有应用到草莓绿色生产中的潜力。     

Growth and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Colonization of Two Prairie Grasses Grown in Soil from Restorations of Three Ages

I compared growth and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) colonization of two prairie grasses (Wild rye [Elymus canadensis] and Little bluestem [Schizachyrium scoparium]), an early‐ and a late‐dominating species in prairie restorations, respectively, grown in soil from restored prairies of differing age, soil characteristics, and site history. There were no consistent patterns between restoration age and soil inorganic nutrients or organic matter. The oldest restoration site had higher soil mycorrhizal inoculum potential (MIP) than 2‐ and 12‐year‐old restorations. However, MIP did not translate into actual colonization for two species grown in soils from the three restorations, nor did MIP relate to phosphorus availability. There were significant differences in root mass and colonization among Wild rye plants but not among Little bluestem plants grown in soils from the three restorations. Wild rye grown in 2‐year‐old restoration soil had significantly higher AMF colonization than when it was grown in soils from the 12‐ and 17‐year‐old restorations. Wild rye grown in 2‐year‐old restoration soil also had higher colonization than Little bluestem grown in 2‐ and 12‐year‐old restoration soils. Little bluestem had no significant correlations between shoot biomass, root biomass or colonization, and concentrations of soil P, total N, or N:P. However, for Wild rye, total soil N was positively correlated with root mass and negatively correlated with colonization, suggesting that in this species, mycorrhizae may affect N availability. Collectively, these results suggest that soil properties unrelated to restoration age were important in determining differences in growth and AMF colonization of two species of prairie grasses.     

Alteration of Soil Carbon Pools and Communities of Mycorrhizal Fungi in Chaparral Exposed to Elevated Carbon Dioxide

We examined the effects of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) enrichment on belowground carbon (C) pools and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in a chaparral community in southern California. Chambers enclosing intact mesocosms dominated by Adenostoma fasciculatum were exposed for 3.5 years to CO₂ levels ranging from 250 to 750 ppm. Pools of total C in bulk soil and in water-stable aggregates (WSA) increased 1.5- and threefold, respectively, between the 250- and 650-ppm treatments. In addition, the abundance of live AM hyphae and spores rose markedly over the same range of CO₂, and the community composition shifted toward dominance by the AM genera Scutellospora and Acaulospora. Net ecosystem exchange of C with the atmosphere declined with CO₂ treatment. It appears that under CO₂ enrichment, extra C was added to the soil via AM fungi. Moreover, AM fungi were predominant in WSA and may shunt C into these aggregates versus bulk soil. Alternatively, C may be retained longer within WSA than within bulk soil. We note that differences between the soil fractions may act as a potential feedback on C cycling between the soil and atmosphere.     

黄土高原紫穗槐丛枝菌根真菌与土壤因子和球囊霉素空间分布的关系

在黄土高原的陕西省甘泉、绥德、米脂、榆林4县(市)选取4个样地,研究紫穗槐不同深度土层丛枝菌根真菌(Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi,AMF)侵染率、孢子密度、球囊霉素和土壤因子之间的关系。结果表明:(1)AMF侵染率平均值绥德样地最大(100%),米脂样地最小(75.02%);孢子密度平均值米脂样地最大(5.91个/g),榆林样地最小(1.57个/g);4个样地孢子密度最大值均在0～10cm土层,且随土层加深而降低;AMF侵染率与孢子密度在各样地间差异显著,同一样地侵染率与孢子密度变化规律不一致。(2)榆林样地的有机碳、铵态氮、速效磷、脲酶和碱性磷酸酶活性平均值显著高于其他3个样地;除绥德、米脂样地的蔗糖酶和甘泉样地的碱性磷酸酶外,其他样地的土壤酶活性和球囊霉素含量均随土层加深而降低,且各土层之间差异显著,最大值均在0～10cm土层。(3)AMF侵染率与pH、总球囊霉素含量、易提取球囊霉素含量呈极显著正相关,与有机碳、硝态氮、速效磷含量呈显著正相关;孢子密度与速效磷、蔗糖酶、脲酶活性呈显著正相关,与铵态氮含量呈显著负相关。(4)第1、2主成分的累积方差贡献率达到56.4%,第1主成分主要综合了球囊霉素、AMF侵染率和孢子密度,第2主成分综合了pH和部分土壤因子信息。因此,球囊霉素、AMF侵染率、孢子密度、pH、部分土壤因子对决定土壤生态起主要作用。
