小麦幼苗生长及其抗氧化酶活性对模拟酸雨与金属离子复合胁迫的响应

通过水培试验,研究了模拟酸雨(pH 3.5)与Al(3、30 mg/L)、Pb(25、250 mg/L)、Cd(0.11、mg/L)单独或复合胁迫对小麦幼苗生长及抗氧化酶活性的影响。结果表明,模拟酸雨与Al、Pb、Cd单独或复合处理12 d后,小麦幼苗根长降低54.01%~94.81%,苗高降低18.88%~77.95%,单粒萌根数降低21.87%~80.37%,其生长发育受到显著抑制,抑制效应随处理浓度增大和作用时间延长而增强,且复合处理组抑制效应更强;幼苗根部超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性在模拟酸雨与单一金属离子处理下显著升高,而在3种金属离子复合处理下显著降低,但酸性条件下无论金属离子单独及复合处理后,过氧化物酶(POD)活性均显著升高,过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性均明显下降。研究发现,酸性条件下3种金属离子对植物细胞均产生氧化胁迫作用,且它们复合胁迫的毒性效应大于其单独胁迫。     

CO2激光预处理对PEG6000胁迫下小麦幼苗根中抗氧化酶活性的影响

用CO2激光对小麦种子分别辐照0、1、3、5min,待其生长至12d时,用10%（W/V）PEG6000胁迫其幼苗,研究激光预处理对PEG6000水分胁迫下小麦幼苗根部脂质过氧化伤害的防护作用。结果表明,CO2激光预处理3min可使水分胁迫的小麦幼苗根部MDA、H2O2含量和O2.-产生速率显著降低（P〈0.05）,可显著提高（P〈0.05）小麦幼苗根部SOD、POD、CAT、APX活性和根长、根干重。激光预处理3min可抑制由水分胁迫引起的小麦幼苗根部脂质过氧化作用。     

烟草气孔特性、抗氧化酶活性与臭氧伤害的关系

 2001～2002连续两年在大田生产条件下研究了10个烤烟基因型气孔密度和气孔导度的变异情况及其与抗臭氧伤害的关系;2002年在控制条件下采用低温加臭氧的方法处理烟草植株,研究分析了烟草叶片遭受臭氧伤害后抗氧化酶活性的变化及其与抗臭氧伤害的关系。结果表明：烤烟不同基因型对臭氧伤害的抗性存在显著的差异。烟草叶片下表皮气孔密度和气孔导度与臭氧伤害引起的气候斑点病具有相关关系,在烟株下部叶中,其相关性分别达到显著（R2001＝0.68,R2002＝0.65）和极显著水平（R2001＝0.87,R2002＝0.80）。因此,下部叶气孔密度和气孔导度可以作为抗病育种的选择指标。在控制条件下的试验结果表明：只有低温加臭氧复合因子才能诱发烟草叶片产生臭氧伤害症状。烟草叶片低温下遭遇臭氧伤害后,超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）活性升高,升幅与气候斑点病病情指数负相关,过氧化氢酶（CAT）活性略有升高,过氧化物酶（POD）活性急剧下降。抗性较差的烟草基因型抗氧化酶反应不敏感,臭氧伤害症状严重,抗性较强的烟草基因型抗氧化酶反应敏感,臭氧伤害症状较轻。低温和臭氧同时作用明显影响了活性氧清除系统,致使系统中酶活性比例失调,POD活性急剧下降,可能是烟草叶片产生臭氧伤害的原因之一,SOD和CAT活性升高对消除臭氧伤害具有一定的防御作用。

热休克诱导各龄蚕组织中的SOD、CAT活性显著升高,如40℃诱导活性最高,CuZn-SOD和Mnop活性也都增加．40℃诱导GSH-Px活性显著升高,而36℃热休克诱导GSH-Px活性降低．幼蚕各部位的抗氧化酶活性存在很大的差异,以胸腹部最高,头部次之,后丝腺最低．热休克对抗氧化酶活性的影响,与幼蚕的生理状态相适应．通过SOD、CAT、GSH-Px协同作用,有助于维持机体正常生理机能．     

低温胁迫对西花蓟马抗氧化酶活性的影响

西花蓟马Frankliniella occidentalis(Pergande)是一种重要入侵害虫。温度是影响西花蓟马生长发育和繁殖的一个重要非生物因子,西花蓟马对温度的耐受性决定了它的越冬存活率和地理分布。本文研究了4种抗氧化酶在低温胁迫下的活力变化。结果表明,4种抗氧化酶对低温胁迫具有不同的响应模式。低温处理能显著提高SOD的活力,对POD的活力则具有明显的抑制作用;然而,CAT和GST的活力在低温胁迫处理表现为先降低,随后逐渐提高的趋势。本研究结果表明4种抗氧化酶在西花蓟马应对低温胁迫中具有重要作用。     

CO2倍增对渗透胁迫下小麦叶片抗氧化酶类及细胞程序性死亡的影响

经渗透胁迫后,ＣＯ２倍增条件下小麦叶片的ＳＯＤ、ＰＯＸ和ＣＡＴ的活性均显著高于对照,上升或稳定时期较长;在渗透胁迫后期ＭＤＡ含量和电解质泄露率增加较慢,显著低于对照;Ｈ２Ｏ２含量一直高于对照但进行ＰＥＧ胁迫后增长较慢。ＣＯ２倍增条件下,小麦细胞出现ＤＮＡ梯的时间较晚而且持续时间较长,ＤＮＡ梯出现时抗氧化酶和Ｈ２Ｏ２处于相对稳定状态。结果表明在渗透胁迫下ＣＯ２倍增使小麦的抗氧化能力增强从而减轻了对细     

土壤不同镉水平对马缨丹生长及其抗氧化酶活性的影响

采用盆栽试验方法,分别设置0(对照,不添加镉)、30、60、90、120、150、180、210mg·kg-1共8个土壤镉处理水平,研究土壤不同镉水平对马缨丹(Lantana comara L.)生长及其抗氧化酶活性的影响,以探讨马缨丹对镉胁迫的生理响应机制。结果显示:(1)随着土壤镉处理浓度的升高,马缨丹干重呈先升高后降低的趋势,30mg·kg-1镉处理能促进植株的生长,而浓度高于60mg·kg-1时显著抑制马缨丹的生长。(2)马缨丹叶片和根系中O-·2产生速率、H2O2和MDA含量及电解质渗漏率均随土壤镉处理浓度的升高和胁迫时间的延长逐渐升高,胁迫90d时,叶片和根系中O-·2产生速率、H2O2和MDA含量及电解质渗漏率分别在镉浓度高于60和30mg·kg-1时显著低于对照。(3)叶片和根系抗氧化酶SOD、POD、APX和CAT活性随着土壤镉处理浓度的增加大体呈先升高后降低的趋势,并在镉浓度分别高于90和60mg·kg-1时,叶片和根系抗氧化酶活性显著低于对照。研究表明,低浓度镉处理土壤能促进马缨丹植株生长,而高浓度镉处理土壤显著降低了马缨丹体内抗氧化酶活性,导致活性氧大量积累,引起严重的膜脂过氧化伤害,从而显著抑制马缨丹植株的生长。     

AgNO3对网纹甜瓜试管苗糖代谢及抗氧化酶活性的影响

在网纹甜瓜继代培养过程中加入不同浓度的AgNO3,测定试管苗糖代谢及抗氧化酶活性等。结果表明,玻璃苗果糖、葡萄糖和可溶性糖含量显著降低,而蔗糖含量显著高于正常苗;抗氧化系统发生紊乱,O2产生速率降低,H2O2含量下降,MDA含量增加,木质素含量降低。加入30μmol·L^-1AgNO,使玻璃苗蔗糖合成酶、蔗糖转化酶活性和木质素含量与正常苗差异不显著。说明适当浓度AgNO3有利于维持试管苗糖代谢正常进行,降低试管苗脂质过氧化程度,从而降低或抑制玻璃化现象的发生。     

盐胁迫对红麻幼苗生长及抗氧化酶活性的影响

为研究不同盐胁迫时间和不同盐浓度胁迫对红麻（Hibiscus cannabinusL.）幼苗的生长及抗氧化酶活性的影响,探寻红麻耐盐的生理机制,为盐碱地种植红麻提供科学依据,本研究对红麻幼苗进行了两种不同条件的盐胁迫处理。一种将红麻幼苗在0（对照组）、140 mmol/L NaCl的半强度Hoagland营养液下分别处理3、6、9 d,另一种是在0（对照组）、70、140、200 mmol/L NaCl的1/2 Hoagland营养液下处理6 d,分别测定两种盐胁迫条件下植株的鲜重、根长、茎长、叶片H2O2、丙二醛（MDA）含量、超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）、过氧化物酶（POD）、过氧化氢酶（CAT）和谷胱甘肽还原酶（GR）活性。结果显示：（1）在第一种处理条件下,随着盐胁迫时间的延长,处理组红麻幼苗的鲜重相对于对照分别减轻了19.63%、19.35%和39.03%,株高则分别降低了25.59%、19.17%和18.48%,处理组的SOD活性先增后减,POD活性先减后增,MDA和H2O2的含量、CAT和GR活性基本随胁迫时间的增长而增高。（2）在第二种处理条件下,随着胁迫盐浓度的增加,处理组鲜重相对于对照分别减轻了16.79%、19.35%和44.73%,株高则分别降低了11.21%、19.17%和23.62%,处理组SOD活性都稍高于对照,但三者无显著差异,POD活性先减后增,MDA和H2O2的含量、CAT和GR活性基本上随着盐浓度增加而增加。实验表明,在两种不同条件的盐胁迫下,红麻幼苗受盐害的程度基本上随胁迫时间和盐浓度的增加而加重。处理组植株的SOD和POD活性较对照组增加不明显,甚至有所降低,而CAT和GR活性则相对较高,CAT和GR可能在红麻幼苗抵御盐害时起较重要作用。     

四年O3熏气对小麦根际土壤氮素微生物转化的影响

采用开顶箱（open top chambers,OTC） 法设置3个臭氧浓度梯度,连续4a对小麦生长季土壤进行臭氧增加试验。测定小麦拔节、孕穗、抽穗、灌浆和成熟期的根际土壤微生物量氮、氨氧化细菌、反硝化细菌数量以及硝化和反硝化强度。结果显示微生物量氮、氨氧化细菌数量和硝化强度随小麦生育进程的推进,呈先升高后降低的趋势,4a变化趋势相同。O₃胁迫下,小麦根际微生物量氮、氨氧化细菌数量、硝化强度亦降低,与对照比较,均达显著水平（P < 0.05）;随O₃作用年限增加,抑制效应越强,第4年 O₃对其的抑制率显著高于第1年的抑制率。反硝化细菌数量在前期没有显著变化,成熟期则增加两个数量级,O₃显著促进成熟期反硝化细菌数量增加。4a试验有相同的变化趋势。在较短时间里O₃对土壤反硝化强度没有显著影响,而作用3个生长季后,反硝化强度显著升高。结果说明,O₃浓度升高降低了麦田土壤微生物量氮、氨氧化细菌数量和硝化强度,并有一定的积累效应。O₃剂量和作用时间的累积量达到一定阈值,显著增加土壤反硝化细菌数量和反硝化强度,增加麦田土壤N₂O排放的风险。土壤氮素微生物转化受小麦生长发育状况和O₃剂量、作用时间的共同影响,不同形态的氮素对O₃的敏感阈值不同,响应的时间和变化的范围有差异。     

核桃凋落叶分解对小麦生长及生理特性的影响

采用盆栽试验,研究了核桃(Juglans regia)凋落叶分解对小麦(Triticum aestivum)生长及抗氧化酶系统、渗透调节物质含量的影响。试验设置A1(30 g/盆)、A2(60 g/盆)、A3(90 g/盆)和对照(CK)4个凋落叶水平,将各处理的凋落叶分别与8 kg土壤混合后装盆。同时设置补充试验,将称好的核桃凋落叶蒸煮12 h,先后用80%丙酮和乙醇充分浸泡24 h,再蒸煮12 h,其他处理方法和条件相同,观测分析浸提蒸煮后的核桃凋落叶在施入土壤后对受体植物的影响。结果表明:核桃凋落叶分解(0—160 d)明显抑制了小麦茎秆地径、茎高、株高、地上部分干重,并随凋落叶量的增加抑制作用增强;随凋落叶量的增加,75—115 d小麦叶片超氧化物歧化酶SOD活性增强,但过氧化氢酶CAT和过氧化物酶POD活性显著低于CK但各凋落叶处理之间变化不明显;75—95 d小麦叶片丙二醛MDA含量变化不明显,115 d时随凋落叶量增加MDA含量显著增加;75—115 d随凋落叶量的增加可溶性糖含量显著增加,但可溶性蛋白含量呈现出下降的趋势;各处理凋落叶对小麦的化感综合效应CE均表现为抑制效应,0—115 d抑制效应增强,115 d后抑制效应减弱,这是由于核桃凋落叶在土壤中分解释放的有害次生代谢物质已明显减少;在补充试验中,各处理间无明显形态差别,CK、B1(30 g/盆)和B2(60 g/盆)水平下各生长指标差异不显著(P0.05),B3(90 g/盆)水平下化感效应指数RI的绝对值与A3相比明显减小,表明在一定的凋落叶施入量范围内,其对土壤物理性质的影响和对小麦根系生长的物理阻隔不会显著抑制小麦的生长。综合各项指标,表明核桃凋落叶分解过程中释放的次生代谢物质显著抑制了小麦生长和生理特性。     

Growth stage-based modulation in antioxidant defense system and proline accumulation in two hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars differing in salinity tolerance

Changes in the antioxidant defense system and proline accumulation were examined at different growth stages (vegetative, boot and reproductive) in plants of two hexaploid spring wheat cultivars (S-24, salt tolerant; MH-97, salt sensitive), grown in hydroponics and salinity-affected with 0, 50, 100 and 150 mM of NaCl. Salt stress provoked a marked decline in plant dry mass and ascorbic acid contents, and increased proline, total soluble proteins and H₂O₂ contents in both wheat cultivars at all growth stages. However, higher accumulation of proline and H₂O₂ contents was recorded at the vegetative and boot stages, respectively, in both wheat cultivars. Salt stress caused a consistent rise in the activities of some key antioxidant enzymes (CAT, SOD, POD, and APX) at all growth stages only in the salt tolerant cultivar S-24, whereas such pattern of enhanced activities of enzymatic antioxidants in cv. MH-97 was found only at the vegetative stage under saline regimes. Maximum activities of various enzymatic antioxidants were observed at the vegetative stage in both wheat cultivars under varying external salt treatments. The results showed that high salinity tolerance of cv. S-24, as manifested by lower decrease in its dry matter under salt stress, was associated with higher activities of antioxidant enzymes, increased accumulation of proline, and lower levels of H₂O₂, as compared with cv. MH-97 at all growth stages under saline regimes.     

Developmental changes in the responses of O2 uptake and ventilation to acutely declining O2 tensions in larval krill Meganyctiphanes norvegica

The effect of exposure to acutely declining oxygen tensions on O₂ uptake (M_O2) and ventilation has been investigated in different larval stages of Northern krill Meganyctiphanes norvegica (calytopis III/early furcilia I, late furcilia I, furcilia III and V). An ability to regulate M_O2 during acutely declining P_O2 began to appear about furcilia III (critical O₂ tension or P_c=15.4±0.73 kPa) and had improved by furcilia V (P_c=12.6±0.39 kPa). Hypoxia-related hyperventilation was achieved by an increase in pleopod (but not thoracic limb) activity (P_c∼11 kPa), a sensitivity which also appeared at, or just before, furcilia V even though an earlier stage (furcilia III) had a full compliment of functional setose pleopods. While this regulatory ability appeared as the gills were beginning to form, furcilia V is still early in gill ontogeny compared with adults. Preexposure to very moderate hypoxia (60% and 70% O₂ saturation) of furcilia III and V resulted in substantial mortality, but where it did not (furcilia V, 80% O₂ saturation), there was no effect of keeping krill at this P_O2 on either M_O2 or ventilation, suggesting that the development of respiratory regulation in M. norvegica is not open to environmental influence in the same way as for other crustaceans. We suggest that ontogeny of pleopod control provides furcilia V+ with both a stronger means of propulsion, allowing the ontogeny of DVM but also with an ability to regulate M_O2 during exposure to acutely declining P_O2s. The onset of respiratory regulation (furcilia V) preceded the onset of DVM (furcilia VI+). As pleopod ontogeny is associated intimately with the ontogeny of DVM and respiratory regulation, in the Gullmarsfjord this co-occurrence is fortuitous as krill can be required during DVM to migrate into hypoxic water which they are not equipped to deal with, in physiological terms, before furcilia V.     

Quercetin-induced H2O2 mediates the pathogen resistance against Pseudomonas syringae pv. Tomato DC3000 in Arabidopsis thaliana

Quercetin is a potent antioxidant and has been extensively used as a therapy intervention to prevent age-associated diseases. However, emerging studies showed it can also act as a prooxidant and induce H₂O₂ under certain conditions. In the current study, our results showed that quercetin contributed to the pathogen resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) in response to the infection of virulent strain Pseudomonas syringae pv. Tomato DC3000 (Pst). Various defense responses, such as H₂O₂ burst, callose deposition, cell death, PR1 (pathogenesis-related 1) and PAL1 (Phe ammonia-lyase 1) gene expression, have been investigated in quercetin-pretreated Pst-inoculated Arabidopsis Col-0 and there was a strong defensive response in quercetin-pretreated Arabidopsis against virulent Pst. However, with the presence of catalase, the protective effects of quercetin on pathogen resistance to virulent Pst disappeared in Arabidopsis, suggesting that H₂O₂ may play a key role in plant defense responses. In addition, we confirmed that quercetin did not show any beneficial effect on pathogen-free leaves in Arabidopsis, indicating that pathogen challenge is also required to induce the defense responses in quercetin-pretreated Arabidopsis. Furthermore, strong defense responses have been observed in quercetin-pretreated Arabidopsis mutant jar1, ein2, and abi1-2 under Pst challenge, whereas no protective effect has been observed in quercetin-pretreated Arabidopsis mutant NahG and npr1. These findings indicate that quercetin induces the resistance to Pst in Arabidopsis via H₂O₂ burst and involvement of SA and NPR1.     

Effects of elevated atmospheric CO2 on soil enzyme activities at different nitrogen application treatments

It has been predicted that elevated atmospheric CO₂ will increase enzyme activity as a result of CO₂-induced carbon entering the soil. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of elevated atmospheric CO₂ on soil enzyme activities under a rice/wheat rotation. This experiment was conducted in Wuxi, Jiangsu, China as part of the China FACE (Free Air Carbon Dioxide Enrichment) Project. Two atmospheric CO₂ concentrations (580±60) and (380±40) μmol·mol^-1) and three N application treatments (low-150, normal-250 and high-350 kg N·hm^-2) were included. Soil samples (0-10 cm) were collected for analysis of β-glucosidase, invertase, urease, acid phosphates and β-glucosaminidase activities. The results revealed that with elevated atmospheric CO₂ β-glucosidase activity significantly decreased (P < 0.05) at low N application rates; had no significant effect with a normal N application rate; and significantly increased (P < 0.05) with a high N application rate. For urease activity, at low and normal N application rates (but not high N application rate), elevated atmospheric CO₂ significantly increased (P < 0.05) it. With acid phosphatase elevated atmospheric CO₂ only had significant higher effects (P < 0.05) at high N application rates. Under different CO₂ concentration, effects of N fertilization are also different. Soil β-glucosidase activity at ambient CO₂ concentration decreased with N fertilization, while it increased at elevated CO₂ concentration. In addition, invertase and acid phosphatase activities at elevated CO₂ concentration, significantly increased (P < 0.05) with N treatments, but there was no effect with the ambient CO₂ concentration. For urease activity, at ambient CO₂ concentration, N fertilization increased it significantly (P < 0.05), whereas at elevated CO₂ concentration it was not significant. Additionally, with β-glucosaminidase activity, there were no significant effects from N application. In general, then, elevated atmospheric CO₂ increased soil enzyme activity, which may be attributed to the following two factors: (1) elevated atmospheric CO₂ led to more plant biomass in the soil, which in turn stimulated soil microbial biomass and activity; and (2) elevated atmospheric CO₂ increased plant photosynthesis, thereby increasing plant-derived soil enzymes.

Functional properties of type I and type II cytochromes c3 from Desulfovibrio africanus

Type I cytochrome c₃ is a key protein in the bioenergetic metabolism of Desulfovibrio spp., mediating electron transfer between periplasmic hydrogenase and multihaem cytochromes associated with membrane bound complexes, such as type II cytochrome c₃. This work presents the NMR assignment of the haem substituents in type I cytochrome c₃ isolated from Desulfovibrio africanus and the thermodynamic and kinetic characterisation of type I and type II cytochromes c₃ belonging to the same organism. It is shown that the redox properties of the two proteins allow electrons to be transferred between them in the physiologically relevant direction with the release of energised protons close to the membrane where they can be used by the ATP synthase.     

地表臭氧浓度增加和UV-B辐射增强及其复合处理对大豆光合特性的影响

基于开顶式气室(OTC),系统开展了地表O3增加和UV-B增强及其复合处理下(自然空气,CK;10%UV-B增强,T1;100nmol/mol O3,T2;100 nmol/mol O3+10%UV-B增强,T3)大豆光合气体交换、光响应、光合色素和类黄酮含量等参数的观测与分析研究。结果表明,与对照相比,T1和T2单因子处理组的如下指标有相似变化:气孔导度、气孔限制值下降,胞间二氧化碳浓度上升,净光合速率、最大净光合速率、半饱和光强显著降低,表观量子效率和暗呼吸速率先升后降。T1的叶绿素含量降低不显著,类胡萝卜素含量先降后升,类黄酮含量上升,而T2的叶绿素和类胡萝卜素含量显著降低,类黄酮含量先降后升。复合处理下,与CK相比各指标的变化和单因子相似,影响程度均强于两单因子组。因此,100 nmol/mol O3浓度增加和10%UV-B辐射增强复合处理对大豆叶绿素含量的影响存在协同作用,且O3胁迫起了主导作用。光合作用下降的主要原因均是非气孔因素,复合处理对大豆光合作用的影响比两因子单独胁迫有所加深,是O3和UV-B共同作用的结果。
