Plant uptake of radiocaesium from soil is an important pathway for the entry of this pollutant into the human food chain and so contributes to any assessment of the radiation dose following contamination. Large differences in soil–plant transfer factors have been reported for plant species grown on the same soils. Few studies have attempted to distinguish between differences in root uptake and root-to-shoot translocation. We have investigated the root uptake of radiocaesium from artificially contaminated soils and the subsequent translocation to shoots for various plant species grown on three agricultural soils. The effects of short contact times and potassium starvation or enrichment have been studied. The Cs adsorption properties of rhizosphere soils have been compared with those of the initial soils. The proportion of activity removed from soil is largely soil dependent. Root uptake properties have less effect, but appear to be species determined, and not influenced by soil properties. Differences in soil-to-shoot transfer factor arise from species-dependent differences in root-to-shoot translocation. Root-to-shoot activity ratios are not soil dependent. There was little effect of soil potassium status. Root action slightly enhanced Cs adsorption on one soil, probably due to mineral weathering associated with the release of nonexchangeable potassium. 相似文献

The effects of liming and inoculation with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, Glomus intraradices Schenck and Smith on the uptake of phosphate (P) by maize (Zea mays L.) and soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) and on depletion of inorganic phosphate fractions in rhizosphere soil (Al-P, Fe-P, and Ca-P) were studied in flat plastic containers using two acid soils, an Oxisol and an Ultisol, from Indonesia. The bulk soil pH was adjusted in both soils to 4.7, 5.6, and 6.4 by liming with different amounts of CaCO3.In both soils, liming increased shoot dry weight, total root length, and mycorrhizal colonization of roots in the two plant species. Mycorrhizal inoculation significantly increased root dry weight in some cases, but much more markedly increased shoot dry weight and P concentration in shoot and roots, and also the calculated P uptake per unit root length. In the rhizosphere soil of mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants, the depletion of Al-P, Fe-P, and Ca-P depended in some cases on the soil pH. At all pH levels, the extent of P depletion in the rhizosphere soil was greater in mycorrhizal than in non-mycorrhizal plants. Despite these quantitative differences in exploitation of soil P, mycorrhizal roots used the same inorganic P sources as non-mycorrhizal roots. These results do not suggest that mycorrhizal roots have specific properties for P solubilization. Rather, the efficient P uptake from soil solution by the roots determines the effectiveness of the use of the different soil P sources. The results indicate also that both liming and mycorrhizal colonization are important for enhancing P uptake and plant growth in tropical acid soils. 相似文献

Origins of root-mediated pH changes in the rhizosphere and their responses to environmental constraints: A review 总被引:34,自引:6,他引:28
The aim of the present review is to define the various origins of root-mediated changes of pH in the rhizosphere, i.e., the volume of soil around roots that is influenced by root activities. Root-mediated pH changes are of major relevance in an ecological perspective as soil pH is a critical parameter that influences the bioavailability of many nutrients and toxic elements and the physiology of the roots and rhizosphere microorganisms. A major process that contributes root-induced pH changes in the rhizosphere is the release of charges carried by H+ or OH– to compensate for an unbalanced cation–anion uptake at the soil–root interface. In addition to the ions taken up by the plant, all the ions crossing the plasma membrane of root cells (e.g., organic anions exuded by plant roots) should be taken into account, since they all need to be balanced by an exchange of charges, i.e., by a release of either H+ or OH–. Although poorly documented, root exudation and respiration can contribute some proportion of rhizosphere pH decrease as a result of a build-up of the CO2 concentration. This will form carbonic acid in the rhizosphere that may dissociate in neutral to alkaline soils, and result in some pH decrease. Ultimately, plant roots and associated microorganisms can also alter rhizosphere pH via redox-coupled reactions. These various processes involved in root-mediated pH changes in the rhizosphere also depend on environmental constraints, especially nutritional constraints to which plants can respond. This is briefly addressed, with a special emphasis on the response of plant roots to deficiencies of P and Fe and to Al toxicity. Finally, soil pH itself and pH buffering capacity also have a dramatic influence on root-mediated pH changes. 相似文献

Recent findings have highlighted the possibility of increased fluoride (F) concentrations in herbage through F taken up from
soil via the plant root. This paper aimed to assess the risk of F concentrations reaching phytotoxic or zootoxic concentrations
in pasture plants. Five plant species commonly found in improved pastures in Australia, the sown species subterranean clover
(Trifolium subterranean) and cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata), and weeds barley grass (Hordeum leporinum), scotch thistle (Onopordum acanthium) and sorrel (Rumex acetosella) were grown in complete nutrient solutions with graded levels of added F to determine the effects of F− activity in solution on phytotoxicity and uptake of F by their roots. A model was developed using data from these solution
culture experiments and data from the literature. The model assessed uptake of F by plants grown over a range of soil pH values
and determined the risk of F taken up through the plant roots reaching phytotoxic concentrations, or concentrations potentially
injurious to grazing animals, in the plant shoots. Modelling data suggested that the plants studied would not accumulate phytotoxic
concentrations of F in shoots or concentrations of F deleterious to grazing animals through root uptake in neutral pH agricultural
soils. The risks from F addition to soils in phosphatic fertilisers leading to reduction in pasture growth or animal health
are therefore low. However, in highly F-polluted soil, as the soil becomes more acidic or alkaline, the risk of zootoxic concentrations
of F in shoots of plants would increase.

Development of specific rhizosphere bacterial communities in relation to plant species, nutrition and soil type 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Rhizosphere microbial communities are important for plant nutrition and plant health. Using the culture-independent method of PCR-DGGE of 16S rDNA for community analyses, we conducted several experiments to investigate the importance of pH, soil type, soil amendment, nutritional status of the plant, plant species and plant age on the structure of the bacterial community in the rhizosphere. At the same time, we assessed the spatial variability of bacterial communities in different root zone locations. Our results showed that the bacterial community structure is influenced by soil pH and type of P fertilization. In a short-term experiment (15–22 days) with cucumber and barley growing in a N deficient or a P deficient soil, the bacterial community structure in the rhizosphere was affected by soil type and fertilization but not by plant species. In a 7.5-week experiment with three plant species (chickpea, canola, Sudan grass) growing in three different soils (a sand, a loam and a clay), the complex interactions between soil and plant effects on the rhizosphere community were apparent. In the sand and the loam, the three plant species had distinct rhizosphere communities while in the clay soil the rhizosphere community structures of canola and Sudan grass were similar and differed from those of chickpea. In all soils, the rhizosphere community structures of the root tip were different from those in the mature root zone. In white lupin, the bacterial community structure of the non-cluster roots differed from those of the cluster roots. As plants matured, different cluster root age classes (young, mature, old) had distinct rhizosphere communities. We conclude that many different factors will contribute to shaping the species composition in the rhizosphere, but that the plant itself exerts a highly selective effect that is at least as great as that of the soil. Root exudate amount and composition are the key drivers for the differences in community structure observed in this study. 相似文献

Leptoplax emarginata and Bornmuellera tymphaea are nickel hyperaccumulators of the Brassicaceae family endemic to serpentine soils in Greece. The aims of this work were to compare the growth and uptake behavior of these plants with the Ni hyperaccumulator species Thlaspi caerulescens and Alyssum murale, and to evaluate their effect on soil Ni availability. Plants were grown for 3 mo on three soils that differ in Ni availability. Ni availability in soils was measuredby isotopic exchange kinetics and DTPA-TEA extractions. Results showed that L. emarginata produced significantly more biomass than other plants. On the serpentine soil, B. tymphaea showed the highest Ni concentration in shoots. However, Niphytoextraction on the three soils was maximal with L. emarginata. The high initial Ni availability of soil Serp (470.5 mg kg(-1)) was the main explanation for the high Ni concentrations measured in plant shoots grown on this soil, compared to those grown on soils Calc and Silt A. murale was the least efficient in reducing Ni availability on the serpentine soil L. emarginata appeared as the most efficient species for Ni phytoextraction and decrease of the Ni available pool. 相似文献

Plant and rhizosphere processes involved in phytoremediation of metal-contaminated soils 总被引:33,自引:4,他引:29
This paper reviews the recent advances in understanding of metal removal from contaminated soils, using either hyperaccumulator plants, or high biomass crop species after soil treatment with chelating compounds. Progress has been made at the physiology and molecular level regarding Zn and Ni uptake and translocation in some hyperaccumulators. It is also known that natural hyperaccumulators do not use rhizosphere acidification to enhance their metal uptake. Recently, it has been found that some natural hyperaccumulators proliferate their roots positively in patches of high metal availability. In contrast, non-accumulators actively avoid these areas, and this is one of the mechanisms by which hyperaccumulators absorb more metals when grown in the same soil. However, there are few studies on the exudation and persistence of natural chelating compounds by these plants. It is thought that rhizosphere microorganisms are not important for the hyperaccumulation of metals from soil. Applications of chelates have been shown to induce large accumulations of metals like Pb, U and Au in the shoots of non-hyperaccumulators, by increasing metal solubility and root to shoot translocation. The efficiency of metal uptake does vary with soil properties, and a full understanding of the relative importance of mass flow and diffusion in the presence and absence of artificial chelates is not available. To successfully manipulate and optimise future phytoextraction technologies, it is argued that a fully combined understanding of soil supply and plant uptake is needed. 相似文献

Metal hyperaccumulator plants like Alyssum murale are used for phytoremediation of Ni contaminated soils. Soil microorganisms are known to play an important role in nutrient acquisition for plants, however, little is known about the rhizosphere microorganisms of hyperaccumulators. Fresh and dry weight, and Ni and Fe concentrations in plant shoots were higher when A. murale was grown in non-sterilized compared to sterilized soils. The analysis of microbial populations in the rhizosphere of A. murale and in bulk soils demonstrated that microbial numbers were affected by the presence of the plant. Significantly higher numbers of culturable actinomycetes, bacteria and fungi were found in the rhizosphere compared to bulk soil. A higher percent of Ni-resistant bacteria were also found in the rhizosphere compared to bulk soil. Percentage of acid producing bacteria was higher among the rhizosphere isolates compared to isolates from bulk soil. However, proportions of siderophore producing and phosphate solubilizing bacteria were not affected by the presence of the plant. We hypothesize that microbes in the rhizosphere of A. murale were capable of reducing soil pH leading to an increase in metal uptake by this hyperaccumulator. 相似文献

Both alkalization and acidification of soil occurred when shoot and root materials from lupin and wheat were incubated in a red–brown earth soil, but with three different starting pH values, during a 70-day period. The response of soil pH change to the addition of organic matter depended on the type of plant materials and starting pH. The net effect of addition of lupin and wheat shoots to acid soils (pH<5) caused soil pH to increase, the addition of lupin roots to soils caused soil pH to decrease slightly, whilst with a higher pH soil (6.5) the wheat straw and lupin shoots raised pH and pH was unchanged for soil with addition of lupin roots. The ash alkalinity of plant materials and the mineralization of organic N are major reasons for the soil pH increase, and the nitrification of mineralized N results in soil pH to decrease. Whilst the data given here would suggest the likelihood of soil acidification occurring, particularly on poorly buffered soil given the inevitable influence of legume root materials, the overall directions of soil pH change in a cropping system that is legume-based will be very much influenced by the balance of many factors associated with the soil and plant system. 相似文献

Roots naturally exert axial and radial pressures during growth, which alter the structural arrangement of soil at the root–soil interface. However, empirical models suggest soil densification, which can have negative impacts on water and nutrient uptake, occurs at the immediate root surface with decreasing distance from the root. Here, we spatially map structural gradients in the soil surrounding roots using non‐invasive imaging, to ascertain the role of root growth in early stage formation of soil structure. X‐ray computed tomography provided a means not only to visualize a root system in situ and in 3‐D but also to assess the precise root‐induced alterations to soil structure close to, and at selected distances away from the root–soil interface. We spatially quantified the changes in soil structure generated by three common but contrasting plant species (pea, tomato, and wheat) under different soil texture and compaction treatments. Across the three plant types, significant increases in porosity at the immediate root surface were found in both clay loam and loamy sand soils and not soil densification, the currently assumed norm. Densification of the soil was recorded, at some distance away from the root, dependent on soil texture and plant type. There was a significant soil texture × bulk density × plant species interaction for the root convex hull, a measure of the extent to which root systems explore the soil, which suggested pea and wheat grew better in the clay soil when at a high bulk density, compared with tomato, which preferred lower bulk density soils. These results, only revealed by high resolution non‐destructive imagery, show that although the root penetration mechanisms can lead to soil densification (which could have a negative impact on growth), the immediate root–soil interface is actually a zone of high porosity, which is very important for several key rhizosphere processes occurring at this scale including water and nutrient uptake and gaseous diffusion. 相似文献

Hydraulic redistribution (HR), the movement of water from wet to dry patches in the soil via roots, occurs in different ecosystems and plant species. By extension of the principle that HR is driven by gradients in soil water potential, HR has been proposed to occur for plants in saline soils. Despite the inherent spatial patchiness and salinity gradients in these soils, the lack of direct evidence of HR in response to osmotic gradients prompted us to ask the question: are there physical or physiological constraints to HR for plants in saline environments? We propose that build‐up of ions in the root xylem sap and in the leaf apoplast, with the latter resulting in a large predawn disequilibrium of water potential in shoots compared with roots and soil, would both impede HR. We present a conceptual model that illustrates how processes in root systems in heterogeneous salinity with water potential gradients, even if equal to those in non‐saline soils, will experience a dampened magnitude of water potential gradients in the soil–plant continuum, minimizing or preventing HR. Finally, we provide an outlook for understanding the relevance of HR for plants in saline environments by addressing key research questions on plant salinity tolerance. 相似文献

Plant growth results from interaction of roots and shoots with the environment. The environment for roots is the soil or planting medium which provide structural support as well as water and nutrients to the plant. Roots also support the growth and functions of a complex of microorganisms that can have a profound effect on the growth anti survival of plants. These microorganisms constitute rhizosphere microflora and can be categorized as deleterious, beneficial, or neutral with respect to root/plant health. Beneficial interactions between roots and microbes do occur in rhizosphere and can be enhanced. Increased plant growth and crop yield can be obtained upon inoculating seeds or roots with certain specific root-colonizing bacteria- 'plant growth promoting rhizobacteria'. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms by which plant growth promoting rhizobacteria may stimulate plant growth. 相似文献

Acquisition of phosphorus and nitrogen in the rhizosphere and plant growth promotion by microorganisms 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21

The rhizosphere is a complex environment where roots interact with physical, chemical and biological properties of soil. Structural and functional characteristics of roots contribute to rhizosphere processes and both have significant influence on the capacity of roots to acquire nutrients. Roots also interact extensively with soil microorganisms which further impact on plant nutrition either directly, by influencing nutrient availability and uptake, or indirectly through plant (root) growth promotion. In this paper, features of the rhizosphere that are important for nutrient acquisition from soil are reviewed, with specific emphasis on the characteristics of roots that influence the availability and uptake of phosphorus and nitrogen. The interaction of roots with soil microorganisms, in particular with mycorrhizal fungi and non-symbiotic plant growth promoting rhizobacteria, is also considered in relation to nutrient availability and through the mechanisms that are associated with plant growth promotion. 相似文献

Background
It is known that the soil near roots, the so-called rhizosphere, has physical and chemical properties different from those of the bulk soil. Rhizosphere properties are the result of several processes: root and soil shrinking/swelling during drying/wetting cycles, soil compaction by root growth, mucilage exuded by root caps, interaction of mucilage with soil particles, mucilage shrinking/swelling and mucilage biodegradation. These processes may lead to variable rhizosphere properties, i.e. the presence of air-filled gaps between soil and roots; water repellence in the rhizosphere caused by drying of mucilage around the soil particles; or water accumulation in the rhizosphere due to the high water-holding capacity of mucilage. The resulting properties are not constant in time but they change as a function of soil condition, root growth rate and mucilage age.Scope
We consider such a variability as an expression of rhizosphere plasticity, which may be a strategy for plants to control which part of the root system will have a facilitated access to water and which roots will be disconnected from the soil, for instance by air-filled gaps or by rhizosphere hydrophobicity. To describe such a dualism, we suggest classifying rhizosphere into two categories: class A refers to a rhizosphere covered with hydrated mucilage that optimally connects roots to soil and facilitates water uptake from dry soils. Class B refers to the case of air-filled gaps and/or hydrophobic rhizosphere, which isolate roots from the soil and may limit water uptake from the soil as well water loss to the soil. The main function of roots covered by class B will be long-distance transport of water.Outlook
This concept has implications for soil and plant water relations at the plant scale. Root water uptake in dry conditions is expected to shift to regions covered with rhizosphere class A. On the other hand, hydraulic lift may be limited in regions covered with rhizosphere class B. New experimental methods need to be developed and applied to different plant species and soil types, in order to understand whether such dualism in rhizosphere properties is an important mechanism for efficient utilization of scarce resources and drought tolerance. 相似文献15.

The chemical, mineralogical, and microbial properties of the rhizosphere of a range of forested ecosystems were studied to identify the key processes controlling the distribution and fate of trace metals at the soil–root interface. The results of our research indicate that: (1) the rhizosphere is a soil microenvironment where properties (e.g., pH, organic matter, microbes) and processes (nutrient and water absorption, exudation) differ markedly from those of the adjacent bulk soil; (2) the rhizosphere is a corrosive medium where the weathering and neoformation of soil solid phases are enhanced; (3) the concentrations of solid-phase and water-soluble trace metals like Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn are generally higher in the rhizosphere as shown by both macroscopic and microscopic approaches; (4) a larger fraction of water-soluble metals is complexed by dissolved organic substances in the rhizosphere; and (5) soil microorganisms play, either directly or indirectly, a distinct role on metal speciation, in particular Cu and Zn, in the rhizosphere. These results improve our capacity to estimate metal speciation and bioavailability at the soil–root interface. Furthermore, the research emphasizes the crucial physical position occupied by the rhizosphere with respect to the process of elemental uptake by plants and its key functional role in the transfer of trace metals along the food chain. We conclude that the properties and processes of the rhizosphere should be viewed as key components of assessments of the ecological risks associated with the presence of trace metals in soils. 相似文献

? Despite the importance of rhizosphere properties for water flow from soil to roots, there is limited quantitative information on the distribution of water in the rhizosphere of plants. ? Here, we used neutron tomography to quantify and visualize the water content in the rhizosphere of the plant species chickpea (Cicer arietinum), white lupin (Lupinus albus), and maize (Zea mays) 12 d after planting. ? We clearly observed increasing soil water contents (θ) towards the root surface for all three plant species, as opposed to the usual assumption of decreasing water content. This was true for tap roots and lateral roots of both upper and lower parts of the root system. Furthermore, water gradients around the lower part of the roots were smaller and extended further into bulk soil compared with the upper part, where the gradients in water content were steeper. ? Incorporating the hydraulic conductivity and water retention parameters of the rhizosphere into our model, we could simulate the gradual changes of θ towards the root surface, in agreement with the observations. The modelling result suggests that roots in their rhizosphere may modify the hydraulic properties of soil in a way that improves uptake under dry conditions. 相似文献

* The extent of isotopic discrimination of transition metals in biological processes is poorly understood but potentially has important applications in plant and biogeochemical studies. * Using multicollector inductively coupled plasma (ICP) mass spectrometry, we measured isotopic fractionation of zinc (Zn) during uptake from nutrient solutions by rice (Oryza sativa), lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) plants. * For all three species, the roots showed a similar extent of heavy Zn enrichment relative to the nutrient solution, probably reflecting preferential adsorption on external root surfaces. By contrast, a plant-species specific enrichment of the light Zn isotope occurred in the shoots, indicative of a biological, membrane-transport controlled uptake into plant cells. The extent of the fractionation in the shoots further depended on the Zn speciation in the nutrient solution. * The observed isotopic depletion in heavy Zn from root to shoot (-0.13 to -0.26 per atomic mass unit) is equivalent to roughly a quarter of the total reported terrestrial variability of Zn isotopic compositions (c. 0.84 per atomic mass unit). Plant uptake therefore represents an important source of isotopic variation in biogeochemical cycling of Zn. 相似文献

Effect of alkaline and saline substrates on ABA contents,distribution and transport in plant roots 总被引:13,自引:1,他引:12
The distribution of the phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) between plant and soil and within plants growing on an alkaline substrate
has been studied in order to separate the true effect of high soil pH from any effects that might be a result of the high
salinity normally observed in alkaline soils. Leaves of a range of plants grown in an alkaline and saline solid substrate
(municipal solid waste incinerator bottom slag) exhibited higher ABA levels than leaves of control plants. In contrast, roots
of most plants grown on alkaline and saline substrates, particularly those without an exodermis (various species of Fabaceae),
had slightly lower than or comparable ABA contents to control roots. However, in corn roots (Zea maysL. cv. Garant FAO 240) which possess a well-developed exodermis, alkaline and saline conditions in the rhizosphere did not
reduce the endogenous ABA concentration, because the leaching of ABA from corn roots into the rhizosphere was lower than that
from Vicia faba (variety Dreifache Weisse) roots. ABA efflux from corn and Vicia roots into the soil solution was observed only during the first days of the experiments and thereafter became substantially
decreased. Because the leaching of ABA from Vicia faba roots into the rhizosphere was higher than that from corn roots, the leaves of Vicia plants grown in alkaline soil at low salinity no longer exhibited an elevated ABA concentration. However, whilst the roots
of corn plants grown on desalted slag retained ABA levels that were higher than those of the control, the ABA content of leaves
was not significant higher than the controls. For this reason, root ABA retention must be enough to induce tolerance to alkalinity
in corn plants and there is no need to implicate changes in ABA concentrations in the aerial parts of the plant as having
a role in this tolerance. In alkaline soil substrates, considerable portions of the ABA synthesised in the roots leached out
into the soil solution of the rhizosphere according to the anion trap concept. An exodermis substantially reduces this leakage.
The transient nature of ABA efflux into the rhizosphere was a result of the fact that the salt stress itself was only a transient
phenomenon due to a washout of salt by irrigation. The results match predictions of mathematical models describing the effect
of alkaline pH on the distribution of abscisic acid within plants and between roots and the rhizosphere. Species that can
retain root ABA in the face of its tendency to leach into the more alkaline compartment are able to tolerate these normally
harmful sites.

Chickpea and white lupin rhizosphere carboxylates vary with soil properties and enhance phosphorus uptake 总被引:9,自引:6,他引:3

Chickpea and white lupin roots are able to exude large amounts of carboxylates, but the resulting concentrations in the rhizosphere vary widely. We grew chickpea in pots in eleven different Western Australian soils, all with low phosphorus concentrations. While final plant mass varied more than two-fold and phosphorus content almost five-fold, there were only minor changes in root morphological traits that potentially enhance phosphorus uptake (e.g., the proportion of plant mass allocated to roots, or the length of roots per unit root mass). In contrast, the concentration of carboxylates (mainly malonate, citrate and malate, extracted using a 0.2 mM CaCl2 solution) varied ten-fold (averaging 2.3 mol g–1 dry rhizosphere soil, approximately equivalent to a soil solution concentration of 23 mM). Plant phosphorus uptake was positively correlated with the concentration of carboxylates in the rhizosphere, and it was consistently higher in soils with a smaller capacity to sorb phosphorus. Phosphorus content was not correlated with bicarbonate-extractable phosphorus or any other single soil trait. These results suggest that exuded carboxylates increased the availability of phosphorus to the plant, however, the factors that affected root exudation rates are not known. When grown in the same six soils, three commonly used Western Australian chickpea cultivars had very similar rhizosphere carboxylate concentrations (extracted using a 0.2 mM CaCl2 solution), suggesting that there is little genetic variation for this trait in chickpea. Variation in the concentration of carboxylates in the rhizosphere of white lupin did not parallel that of chickpea across the six soils. However, in both species the proportion of citrate decreased and that of malate increased at lower soil pH. We conclude that patterns of variation in root exudates need to be understood to optimise the use of this trait in enhancing crop phosphorus uptake. 相似文献
