长期施肥对砂姜黑土丛枝菌根真菌群落的影响

在农业生态系统中,丛枝菌根真菌(AM真菌)与很多作物的根系都存在互惠互利的共生关系,与作物的生长和健康密切相关,同时,这类特殊的真菌群落也会受到施肥等农业措施的影响.本研究依托长期定位试验4个试验处理(不施肥、单施化肥、化肥配施秸秆、化肥配施粪肥),研究砂姜黑土AM真菌群落对不同施肥措施的响应及其影响因素,探索不同处理AM真菌指示种的存在.结果表明: 砂姜黑土中的主要AM真菌类群为原囊霉科、多孢囊霉科、巨孢囊霉科、近明球囊霉科、球囊霉科和类球囊霉科;其中类球囊霉属在化肥和有机物料配施中具有显著指示作用.与对照相比,长期单施化肥显著改变AM真菌群落结构并降低其多样性,配施秸秆处理进一步降低AM真菌群落多样性,而配施粪肥明显缓解因施用化肥而造成的多样性减少现象.检验发现,导致AM真菌群落变化最主要的影响因素是土壤pH和可溶性碳.总之,长期不同有机物料和化肥配施对砂姜黑土AM真菌群落结构和多样性会产生不同影响,其中化肥配施粪肥更有利于土壤AM真菌群落多样性的维持.     

硫素对不同大豆品种成熟期AM真菌群落多样性的影响

研究硫素对不同大豆品种成熟期丛枝菌根（arbuscular mycorrhizal,AM）真菌群落多样性的影响,探索有利于提高3个特定大豆品种根围土壤和根系AM真菌多样性的最佳施硫量,为提高大豆产量和改善大豆品质提供理论依据。试验采用盆栽,选用黑农44（HN44）、黑农48（HN48）、黑农37（HN37）3个大豆品种作为试验材料,设4个硫素处理S1（对照）,S2（0.02g/kg）,S3（0.04g/kg）和S4（0.06g/kg）。采用PCR-DGGE技术分析3个大豆品种根围土壤和根系中AM真菌群落多样性。结果表明：在S2处理下HN37和HN44根围土壤和根系AM真菌多样性最高,而在S3处理下HN48根围土壤和根系AM真菌多样性最高;DGGE图谱中各样品优势种群变化显著,球囊霉属Glomus和柄囊霉属Funneliformis真菌为3个大豆品种根围土壤和根系中AM真菌的优势菌群。由此可见,硫素对不同大豆品种根围土壤和根系AM真菌群落多样性有显著影响,适量施硫能够提高大豆根围土壤和根系中AM真菌的多样性,不施或过高施硫反而抑制AM真菌的多样性。

电子废弃物拆解区土壤重金属污染对丛枝菌根真菌多样性的影响

【背景】电子废弃物拆解造成的土壤重金属污染引发的环境问题日益突出,丛枝菌根(arbuscular mycorrhizal,AM)真菌能侵染植物根系并增强植物抵御环境胁迫的能力,具有重要的生态功能和应用潜力。【目的】探究电子废弃物拆解区土壤重金属污染对AM真菌群落结构与多样性的影响,甄别可耐受重金属污染的AM真菌类群。【方法】从浙江台州某典型电子废弃物拆解场地及其周边区域共采集土壤样品12份,针对土壤中AM真菌的18S rRNA基因进行高通量测序以及可操作分类单元(operational taxonomic unit,OTU)相对丰度和多样性指数计算。【结果】该区土壤中AM真菌由原囊霉目(Archaeosporales)、球囊霉目(Glomerales)和多孢囊霉目(Diversisporales)组成,其中球囊霉目占据优势地位。土壤AM真菌多样性指数与重金属的浓度、综合污染指数和潜在生态风险指数间均无显著相关性,但疑似泡囊根生囊霉(Rhizophagus vesiculiferus)的OTU相对丰度与上述重金属污染指标之间均呈显著正相关关系。【结论】R. vesiculiferus可能对重金属污染有极强耐受性,可为今后电子废弃物拆解污染土壤治理提供技术基础。     

减磷配施有机肥对丛枝菌根真菌群落的复杂度和稳定性的短期效应

【目的】探究减磷配施有机肥条件下土壤中丛枝菌根（arbuscular mycorrhiza，AM）真菌群落特性、网络复杂性及群落的稳定性之间的关系，揭示有机肥替代背景下，土壤理化性质与AM真菌的群落结构对网络特征和群落稳定性的短期效应。【方法】在2012年开始的无机磷肥长期定位试验的基础上，于2018年实施减磷配施有机肥裂区试验，共设6个处理：施无机磷0、75、150 kg/hm²；无机磷肥施用量减少30%，即0、52.5、105 kg/hm²，并配施有机肥（猪粪）3 187 kg/hm²，每个处理重复3次。通过高通量测序和生物信息学分析，探究减磷配施有机肥对土壤中AM真菌群落的网络特征及稳定性的短期效应。【结果】相比于无机磷施用，减磷配施有机肥整体上降低了AM真菌群落的α多样性，各处理中的AM真菌优势类群均为球囊霉属（Glomus）和类球囊霉属（Paraglomus）。网络的平均度、平均加权度在无机磷肥及减磷配施有机肥处理中均在适量施磷下达到最大值，且无机磷肥处理大于减磷配施有机肥处理；网络负相关连接线数在无机磷肥处理中随施磷量增加而增加，而在减磷配施有机肥处理中随施磷量增加而减少。减磷配施有机肥通过抑制AM真菌群落间正相互作用来提高负正凝聚力比值，从而促进群落稳定性。相比于AM真菌的指示物种（indicator species）和关键类群（keystone taxa），优势类群（dominant taxa）与AM真菌群落的稳定性密切相关。【结论】在酸性紫色土中，短期减磷配施有机肥通过改变土壤pH、速效磷和有机质，调控AM真菌群落的α多样性和优势类群，进而影响AM真菌群落的网络复杂度和群落稳定性。

Role for dopamine in malonate-induced damage in vivo in striatum and in vitro in mesencephalic cultures

Defects in mitochondrial energy metabolism have been implicated in the pathology of several neurodegenerative disorders. In addition, the reactive metabolites generated from the metabolism and oxidation of the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) are thought to contribute to the damage to neurons of the basal ganglia. We have previously demonstrated that infusions of the metabolic inhibitor malonate into the striata of mice or rats produce degeneration of DA nerve terminals. In the present studies, we demonstrate that an intrastriatal infusion of malonate induces a substantial increase in DA efflux in awake, behaving mice as measured by in vivo microdialysis. Furthermore, pretreatment of mice with tetrabenazine (TBZ) or the TBZ analogue Ro 4-1284 (Ro-4), compounds that reversibly inhibit the vesicular storage of DA, attenuates the malonate-induced DA efflux as well as the damage to DA nerve terminals. Consistent with these findings, the damage to both DA and GABA neurons in mesencephalic cultures by malonate exposure was attenuated by pretreatment with TBZ or Ro-4. Treatment with these compounds did not affect the formation of free radicals or the inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation resulting from malonate exposure alone. Our data suggest that DA plays an important role in the neurotoxicity produced by malonate. These findings provide direct evidence that inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase causes an increase in extracellular DA levels and indicate that bioenergetic defects may contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic neurodegenerative diseases through a mechanism involving DA.     

Scurvy in capybaras bred in captivity in Argentine

In order to determine if the absence of vitamin C in the diet of capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) causes scurvy, a group of seven young individuals were fed food pellets without ascorbic acid, while another group of eight individuals received the same food with 1 g of ascorbic acid per animal per day. Animals in the first group developed signs of scurvy-like gingivitis, breaking of the incisors and death of one animal. Clinical signs appeared between 25 and 104 days from the beginning of the trial in all individuals. Growth rates of individuals deprived of vitamin C was considerably less than those observed in the control group. Deficiency of ascorbic acid had a severe effect on reproduction of another population of captive capybaras. We found that the decrease in ascorbic acid content in the diet affected pregnancy, especially during the first stages. The results obtained suggest that it is necessary to supply a suitable quantity of vitamin C in the diet of this species in captivity.     

Changes in lactate dehydrogenase activity in chicken tissues in hyperthyreosis in ontogenesis

The lactate dehydrogenase activity in reactions of lactate oxidation and synthesis was studied in subfractions of the chicken brain, heart and liver at the embryonal, early postembryonal and adult stages of development after thyroxine administration. It has been shown that during embryogenesis thyroxine predominantly enhanced the rate of lactate oxidation in the mitochondrial tissues. A marked increase in the lactate synthesis was found in cytoplasm of the adult chicken tissues. Specificity of enzyme activity alterations was detected in the chicken brain during ontogenesis after thyroxine administration.     

SSTR5 ablation in islet results in alterations in glucose homeostasis in mice

Somatostatin (SST) peptide is a potent inhibitor of insulin secretion and its effect is mediated via somatostatin receptor 5 (SSTR5) in the endocrine pancreas. To investigate the consequences of gene ablation of SSTR5 in the mouse pancreas, we have generated a mouse model in which the SSTR5 gene was specifically knocked down in the pancreatic beta cells (betaSSTR5Kd) using the Cre-lox system. Immunohistochemistry analysis showed that SSTR5 gene expression was absent in beta cells at three months of age. At the time of gene ablation, betaSSTR5Kd mice demonstrated glucose intolerance with lack of insulin response and significantly reduced serum insulin levels. Insulin tolerance test demonstrated a significant increase of insulin clearance in vivo at the same age. In vitro studies demonstrated an absence of response to SST-28 stimulation in the betaSSTR5Kd mouse islet, which was associated with a significantly reduced SST expression level in betaSSTR5Kd mice pancreata. In addition, betaSSTR5Kd mice had significantly reduced serum glucose levels and increased serum insulin levels at 12 months of age. Glucose tolerance test at an older age also indicated a persistently higher insulin level in betaSSTR5Kd mice. Further studies of betaSSTR5Kd mice had revealed elevated serum C-peptide levels at both 3 and 12 months of age, suggesting that these mice are capable of producing and releasing insulin to the periphery. These results support the hypothesis that SSTR5 plays a pivotal role in the regulation of insulin secretion in the mouse pancreas.
