太湖竺山湾沉积物中氨氧化原核生物的垂直分布与多样性 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
原核生物驱动的氨氧化过程对于富营养化湖泊的氮循环具有重要意义。为了解太湖藻型湖区沉积物中氨氧化原核生物的垂直分布和多样性特征,采用分子生态学方法,对竺山湾沉积物剖面中氨单加氧酶基因(amoA)或16S rRNA基因等特征分子标记的变化和序列特征进行了分析。结果表明,氨氧化细菌(ammonia-oxidizing bacteria,AOB)和氨氧化古菌(ammonia-oxidizing archaea,AOA)共存于沉积物各层。AOB的优势种在5cm深度以下发生明显改变,这可能与沉积物氧化还原电位及铵态氮的变化有关;所有细菌amoA序列均属亚硝化单胞菌(Nitrosomonas)。AOA群落结构自表层至7cm深度变化不大,所有古菌amoA序列分属泉古菌CG1.1b和CG1.1a两大类群,这可能与太湖形成历史上的海陆交替过程有关。此外,沉积物各层均未发现典型厌氧氨氧化(anaerobic ammonium oxidation,anammox)细菌16S rRNA基因序列。这些发现丰富了对太湖藻型湖区氨氧化原核生物分布、多样性及环境调控原理的认识,对理解富营养化湖泊氨氧化规律、认识湖泊生态系统氮循环功能具有借鉴意义。 相似文献

为探究缢蛏(Sinonovacula constricta)养殖池塘中氨氧化细菌(AOB)和氨氧化古菌(AOA)的季节变化及其环境因子相关性, 试验以amoA基因为分子标记, 利用荧光定量PCR技术对养殖池塘水体及沉积物中的AOA和AOB进行了研究。结果显示, 季节变化对于水体及沉积物中的AOA和AOB的amoA基因丰度有一定的影响, 不同季节的水体及沉积物中AOA含量均比AOB含量高一个数量级。其中水体中AOB在秋季显著高于其余三季(P<0.05); AOA在冬季最低, 且显著低于春秋两季(P<0.05)。沉积物中AOB和AOA均在冬季显著高于其余三季(P<0.05)。环境因子相关性分析结果表明: 水体中AOB丰度与氨氮成显著正相关(P<0.05), 与亚硝氮成显著负相关(P<0.05); AOA丰度与水温成正显著相关(P<0.05), 与硝氮成负显著相关(P<0.05)。沉积物中AOB丰度与溶解氧、硝氮、总氮及亚硝氮成显著正相关(P<0.05), 与水温成显著负相关(P<0.05); AOA丰度与溶解氧、总氮、硝氮成显著性正相关(P<0.05), 与水温成负显著相关(P<0.05)。多元线性回归方程结果显示, 缢蛏养殖池塘的AOA及AOB丰度与硝氮密切相关。研究表明, AOA在缢蛏养殖池塘氨氧化进程中占据主导地位, AOA和AOB丰度受盐度、温度、氮素浓度及溶解氧等环境因子的共同影响。 相似文献

【目的】以内蒙古辉腾锡勒草原九十九泉湿地为对象,研究湖泊干涸过程中氨氧化微生物的群落结构及其变化。【方法】通过MPN-PCR定量测定氨氧化古菌(AOA)和氨氧化细菌(AOB)的数量;构建amoA基因克隆文库,进行系统发育分析;结合土壤环境因子,探讨湿地退化过程中影响氨氧化微生物的潜在因素。【结果】依湖泊湿地退水梯度的不同样点中,有75%的样点AOB的数量高于AOA,AOB与AOA的数量比率为0.3-18.1。从湖心到湖岸草原带,AOA和AOB的数量有明显增加,但生物多样性呈降低趋势,二者没有呈现正相关。研究发现,AOB的数量与土壤中NH 4+-N的变化存在良好响应。系统发育分析显示,退化湖泊湿地AOA克隆序列均来自于泉古菌门(Crenarchaeota);AOB的amoA基因的克隆序列大部分与亚硝化单胞菌属(Nitrosomonas)有一定同源性,较少部分与亚硝化螺菌属(Nitrosospira)有一定同源性。【结论】湖泊退水过程增加了湿地土壤氨氧化微生物的数量,而氨氧化微生物的种群丰度有所降低。AOA和AOB群落对湖泊湿地的退化过程做出了响应,其中AOB的响应较为明显,氧化条件和土壤铵浓度的改变可能是促成这种响应的重要原因。 相似文献

白洋淀湖滨湿地岸边带氨氧化古菌与氨氧化细菌的分布特性 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
摘要:本研究通过分子生物学分析方法,以amoA基因为标记,考察了氨氧化古菌(Ammonia-Oxidizing Archaea, AOA)和氨氧化细菌(Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria,AOB)在华北平原的白洋淀这一典型湖泊的湖滨湿地岸边带系统中的生物多样性和丰度分布。在前人的研究中,氨氧化古菌在海洋、原生态土壤和人为干扰土壤等环境中主导氨氧化过程的完成。但本研究发现,在湿地岸边带系统中氨氧化过程并不是完全由氨氧化古菌主导完成,即氨氧化古菌和氨氧化细菌在不同区域分别占据主导地位。根据主导微生物的不同,可以将湿地岸边带区域划分为陆相区、中间区和湖相区。在湿地岸边带陆相区,氨氧化古菌主导氨氧化过程,氨氧化古菌的amoA基因丰度是氨氧化细菌的526倍(AOA:1.23?108每克干土;AOB:2.34?105每克干土);在岸边带湖相区,氨氧化细菌主导氨氧化过程,氨氧化古菌的amoA基因丰度只有氨氧化细菌的1/50倍(AOA:3.17?106每克干土;AOB:1.39?108每克干土);在岸边带中间区,两种微生物对氨氧化过程的贡献相当,二者的amoA基因丰度也相当 (AOA:9.83?106, AOB:4.08?106)。研究还发现,湿地中间区的微生物生物多样性高于陆相区和湖相区。在湿地中间区,氨氧化古菌和氨氧化细菌的生物多样性都最高,分别有5和7个操作分类单元(OTUs);相比之下,岸边带陆相区和湖相区的多样性依次降低,陆相区的氨氧化古菌和氨氧化细菌分别有3和6个操作分类单元,湖相区的氨氧化古菌和氨氧化细菌分别有2和6个分类单元。本研究的两个结论进一步反映了湿地岸边带极强的空间异质性。 相似文献

由氨氧化微生物驱动的氨氧化过程是硝化作用的限速步骤,在土壤氮素循环过程中扮演着重要角色.以湖南省宁乡县长达30 a定位试验水稻土壤为研究对象,采用荧光定量PCR和Illumina MiSeq高通量测序分析方法,以amoA基因为靶标,研究了4种施肥制度[不施肥(CK)、化肥(CF)、70%化肥+30%有机肥(CFM1)和40%化肥+60%有机肥(CFM2)]水稻土壤氨氧化微生物的数量和群落结构变化.结果表明: 不同施肥处理氨氧化古菌(AOA)和氨氧化细菌(AOB) amoA基因拷贝数分别为3.09×107~8.37×107和1.04×107~7.03×107 copies·g-1干土.施肥显著提高了AOA和AOB数量,但处理CFM2中AOB数量与CK差异不显著.有机肥配施比例对AOB群落α多样性指数的影响强于AOA,处理CFM1中AOA群落的多样性指数(Shannon)和AOB群落的丰富度指数(ACE和Chao1)均显著高于CK.奇古菌门和泉古菌门是AOA群落的优势门类群,占AOA amoA基因总序列的83.4%;亚硝化螺菌属、environmental_samples_norank、Bacteria_unclassified和Nitrosomonadales_unclassified是AOB群落的优势属类群,占AOB amoA基因总序列的97.8%.维恩分析结果显示,有机肥配施比例对AOB群落操作分类单元(OTU)数量的影响强于AOA,但对各处理共有AOA和AOB amoA基因序列条数的影响均较小.冗余分析结果显示,不同施肥处理AOB群落结构差异强于AOA,且所有土壤理化性质均与AOA和AOB群落结构存在显著相关关系.综上可知:有机肥配施比例显著改变了AOA和AOB数量、多样性和群落结构,配施30%有机肥时,AOA群落的Shannon指数最高,AOB群落数量、ACE和Chao1指数均最高.研究结果可为进一步探讨农业系统中氨氧化微生物对不同施肥制度的响应机制及其在氮素转化中的作用提供科学依据. 相似文献

【目的】本研究皆在了解虾养殖底泥中氨氧化细菌与氨氧化古菌群落多态性。【方法】以功能基因为基础,构建氨氧化细菌(AOB)与氨氧化古菌(AOA)的氨单加氧酶α亚基基因(amoA)克隆文库。利用限制性片段长度多态性(Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism,RFLP)技术将克隆文库阳性克隆子进行归类分析分成若干个可操作分类单元(Operational Taxa Units,OTUs)。【结果】通过序列多态性分析,表明AOB amoA基因克隆文库中所有序列都属于变形杆菌门β亚纲(β-Proteobacteria)中的亚硝化单细胞菌属(Nitrosomonas)及Nitrosomonas-like,未发现亚硝化螺旋菌属(Nitrosospira)。AOA amoA基因克隆文库中只有一个OTU序列属于未分类的古菌(Unclassified-Archaea),其余序列都属于泉古菌门(Crenarchaeote)。AOA群落结构单一且存在一个绝对优势类群OTU3,其克隆子数目占克隆文库的57.45%。AOB和AOA amoA基因克隆文库分别包括13个OTUs和9个OTUs,其文库覆盖率分别为73.47%和90.43%。AOB amoA基因克隆文库的Shannon-Wiener指数、Evenness指数、Simpson指数、Richness指数均高于AOA。【结论】虾养殖塘底泥中存在氨氧化古菌的amoA基因,且多态性低于氨氧化细菌,表明氨氧化古菌在虾养殖塘底泥的氮循环中可能具有重要的作用。 相似文献

【背景】对于环境样品中氨氧化古菌(Ammonia-oxidizing archaea,AOA)多样性的研究,利用amoA功能基因作为分子标记会比16SrRNA基因有更强的特异性和更高的分辨率,能更准确地反映环境样品中氨氧化古菌的种群结构和分布特征。然而,目前对amoA基因扩增子高通量测序的分析存在两大限制因素:一是缺乏相应的amoA基因参考数据库;二是AOA amoA基因在种水平上的相似性阈值未知,分析过程中没有明确的划分种水平操作分类单元(Operational taxonomic unit,OTU)的阈值。【目的】构建基于amoA功能基因序列分析氨氧化古菌多样性的方法,为基于高通量测序的功能微生物多样性分析提供参考。【方法】基于目前已通过分离纯化或富集培养获得的34株氨氧化古菌及功能基因数据库中收录的环境样品amoA基因序列,构建氨氧化古菌amoA基因参考数据库。通过菌株间两两比对获得的amoA基因相似度与16SrRNA基因相似度的相关性分析,确定amoA基因在种水平上的相似性阈值。基于MOTHUR软件平台,利用建立的参考数据库和确定的阈值对南海一个垂直水体剖面样品的amoA基因序列进行多样性分析。【结果】构建了含有26 091条序列信息的古菌amoA基因参考数据库,确定了89%作为分析过程中古菌amoA基因划分种水平OTU的阈值,对南海水体样品氨氧化古菌的多样性分析结果很好地显示了南海不同深度水层水体中氨氧化古菌的种群结构和系统发育关系,有效揭示了南海氨氧化古菌的垂直分布差异。【结论】建立了基于amoA基因高通量测序的氨氧化古菌多样性分析方法,此方法可以有效分析环境样品中氨氧化古菌的多样性。 相似文献

氨氧化古菌及其对氮循环贡献的研究进展 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
硝化作用先将氨氮氧化为亚硝酸盐氮并进一步氧化为硝酸盐氮,这一过程是氮进行全球生物化学循环的重要环节。随着氨氧化古菌(Ammonia-oxidizing archaea,AOA)基因组序列中氨单加氧酶编码基因(amoA)的发现以及AOA在实验室条件下的成功培养(包括分离纯化和富集培养),基于分子生物学的研究表明AOA在各种环境广泛存在,且多数生境中它的数量远远超过氨氧化细菌(Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria,AOB)。AOA相对于AOB在氮循环中的贡献也引起了多方面的论证和争论。本文就氨氧化古菌的生态分布、系统进化、生境存在丰度及参与硝化作用等进行综述,指出不同生境AOA的活性及其对氮循环的重要性仍需做进一步的研究。 相似文献

Nitrification, mediated by ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), is important in global nitrogen cycling. In estuaries where gradients of salinity and ammonia concentrations occur, there may be differential selections for ammonia-oxidizer populations. The aim of this study was to examine the activity, abundance, and diversity of AOA and AOB in surface oxic sediments of a highly nutrified estuary that exhibits gradients of salinity and ammonium. AOB and AOA communities were investigated by measuring ammonia monooxygenase (amoA) gene abundance and nitrification potentials both spatially and temporally. Nitrification potentials differed along the estuary and over time, with the greatest nitrification potentials occurring mid-estuary (8.2 μmol N grams dry weight [gdw]−1 day−1 in June, increasing to 37.4 μmol N gdw−1 day−1 in January). At the estuary head, the nitrification potential was 4.3 μmol N gdw−1 day−1 in June, increasing to 11.7 μmol N gdw−1 day−1 in January. At the estuary head and mouth, nitrification potentials fluctuated throughout the year. AOB amoA gene abundances were significantly greater (by 100-fold) than those of AOA both spatially and temporally. Nitrosomonas spp. were detected along the estuary by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) band sequence analysis. In conclusion, AOB dominated over AOA in the estuarine sediments, with the ratio of AOB/AOA amoA gene abundance increasing from the upper (freshwater) to lower (marine) regions of the Colne estuary. These findings suggest that in this nutrified estuary, AOB (possibly Nitrosomonas spp.) were of major significance in nitrification. 相似文献

Nitrification within estuarine sediments plays an important role in the nitrogen cycle, both at the global scale and in individual estuaries. Although bacteria were once thought to be solely responsible for catalyzing the first and rate-limiting step of this process, several recent studies have suggested that mesophilic Crenarchaeota are capable of performing ammonia oxidation. Here we examine the diversity (richness and community composition) of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) within sediments of Bahía del Tóbari, a hypernutrified estuary receiving substantial amounts of ammonium in agricultural runoff. Using PCR primers designed to specifically target the archaeal ammonia monooxygenase alpha-subunit (amoA) gene, we found AOA to be present at five sampling sites within this estuary and at two sampling time points (January and October 2004). In contrast, the bacterial amoA gene was PCR amplifiable from only 40% of samples. Bacterial amoA libraries were dominated by a few widely distributed Nitrosomonas-like sequence types, whereas AOA diversity showed significant variation in both richness and community composition. AOA communities nevertheless exhibited consistent spatial structuring, with two distinct end member assemblages recovered from the interior and the mouths of the estuary and a mixed assemblage from an intermediate site. These findings represent the first detailed examination of archaeal amoA diversity in estuarine sediments and demonstrate that diverse communities of Crenarchaeota capable of ammonia oxidation are present within estuaries, where they may be actively involved in nitrification. 相似文献

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) enter estuaries via wastewater treatment effluents, where they can inhibit microorganisms, because of their antimicrobial properties. Ammonia‐oxidising bacteria (AOB) and archaea (AOA) are involved in the first step of nitrification and are important to ecosystem function, especially where effluent discharge results in high nitrogen inputs. Here, we investigated the effect of a pulse addition of AgNPs on AOB and AOA ammonia monooxygenase (amoA) gene abundances and benthic nitrification potential rates (NPR) in low‐salinity and mesohaline estuarine sediments. Whilst exposure to 0.5 mg L?1 AgNPs had no significant effect on amoA gene abundances or NPR, 50 mg L?1 AgNPs significantly decreased AOB amoA gene abundance (up to 76% over 14 days), and significantly decreased NPR by 20‐fold in low‐salinity sediments and by twofold in mesohaline sediments, after one day. AgNP behaviour differed between sites, whereby greater aggregation occurred in mesohaline waters (possibly due to higher salinity), which may have reduced toxicity. In conclusion, AgNPs have the potential to reduce ammonia oxidation in estuarine sediments, particularly where AgNPs accumulate over time and reach high concentrations. This could lead to long‐term risks to nitrification, especially in polyhaline estuaries where ammonia‐oxidation is largely driven by AOB. 相似文献

自然条件变化和人类活动不仅加剧了土壤酸化,扩大了酸性土壤面积,而且严重影响了土壤氮循环。氨氧化过程作为硝化作用的限速步骤,是全球氮循环的核心环节,受到国内外研究者的广泛关注。探究酸性土壤氨氧化作用及其功能微生物对完善氮循环机制和促进土壤养分循环具有重要意义。本文主要综述了土壤中氨氧化代谢途径,对比了氨氧化细菌(ammoniaoxidizing bacteria, AOB)、氨氧化古菌(ammonia-oxidizing archaea, AOA)和全程硝化菌(complete ammoniaoxidizers,Comammox)对酸性土壤氨氧化作用的相对贡献,分析了微生物内源功能差异及pH、底物浓度等外部环境因素对氨氧化微生物丰度、活性和群落结构的影响,最后对氨氧化微生物研究进行了展望,以期为酸性土壤氨氧化作用研究和微生物修复技术应用与实践提供科学参考。 相似文献

Ammonia-oxidizing archaea have more important role than ammonia-oxidizing bacteria in ammonia oxidation of strongly acidic soils 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Increasing evidence demonstrated the involvement of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) in the global nitrogen cycle, but the relative contributions of AOA and ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) to ammonia oxidation are still in debate. Previous studies suggest that AOA would be more adapted to ammonia-limited oligotrophic conditions, which seems to be favored by protonation of ammonia, turning into ammonium in low-pH environments. Here, we investigated the autotrophic nitrification activity of AOA and AOB in five strongly acidic soils (pH<4.50) during microcosm incubation for 30 days. Significantly positive correlations between nitrate concentration and amoA gene abundance of AOA, but not of AOB, were observed during the active nitrification. 13CO2-DNA-stable isotope probing results showed significant assimilation of 13C-labeled carbon source into the amoA gene of AOA, but not of AOB, in one of the selected soil samples. High levels of thaumarchaeal amoA gene abundance were observed during the active nitrification, coupled with increasing intensity of two denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis bands for specific thaumarchaeal community. Addition of the nitrification inhibitor dicyandiamide (DCD) completely inhibited the nitrification activity and CO2 fixation by AOA, accompanied by decreasing thaumarchaeal amoA gene abundance. Bacterial amoA gene abundance decreased in all microcosms irrespective of DCD addition, and mostly showed no correlation with nitrate concentrations. Phylogenetic analysis of thaumarchaeal amoA gene and 16S rRNA gene revealed active 13CO2-labeled AOA belonged to groups 1.1a-associated and 1.1b. Taken together, these results provided strong evidence that AOA have a more important role than AOB in autotrophic ammonia oxidation in strongly acidic soils. 相似文献

Relative abundance and diversity of ammonia-oxidizing archaea and bacteria in the San Francisco Bay estuary 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Ammonia oxidation in marine and estuarine sediments plays a pivotal role in the cycling and removal of nitrogen. Recent reports have shown that the newly discovered ammonia-oxidizing archaea can be both abundant and diverse in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. In this study, we examined the abundance and diversity of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and betaproteobacteria (beta-AOB) across physicochemical gradients in San Francisco Bay--the largest estuary on the west coast of the USA. In contrast to reports that AOA are far more abundant than beta-AOB in both terrestrial and marine systems, our quantitative PCR estimates indicated that beta-AOB amoA (encoding ammonia monooxygenase subunit A) copy numbers were greater than AOA amoA in most of the estuary. Ammonia-oxidizing archaea were only more pervasive than beta-AOB in the low-salinity region of the estuary. Both AOA and beta-AOB communities exhibited distinct spatial structure within the estuary. AOA amoA sequences from the north part of the estuary formed a large and distinct low-salinity phylogenetic group. The majority of the beta-AOB sequences were closely related to other marine/estuarine Nitrosomonas-like and Nitrosospira-like sequences. Both ammonia-oxidizer community composition and abundance were strongly correlated with salinity. Ammonia-oxidizing enrichment cultures contained AOA and beta-AOB amoA sequences with high similarity to environmental sequences. Overall, this study significantly enhances our understanding of estuarine ammonia-oxidizing microbial communities and highlights the environmental conditions and niches under which different AOA and beta-AOB phylotypes may thrive. 相似文献

以小兴安岭酸性森林泥炭土为研究对象,通过加入10 mL·L-1乙炔及不同浓度的外源硫酸铵(0、1.2、6.0 mmol N·kg-1)进行硝化培养试验,探究酸性泥炭土中硝化作用类型及主要驱动因子.结果表明:无论有无外加氮源,酸性泥炭土均存在较强的矿化作用(0.9~1.4 mg N·kg-1·d-1),经过2周的培养均发生了硝化作用(0.4~0.6 mg N·kg-1·d-1),且不同浓度硫酸铵处理之间无显著差异;而乙炔处理虽有较强的矿化作用(0.8 mg N·kg-1·d-1),但未发生明显的硝化作用(0 mg N·kg-1·d-1),说明该酸性泥炭土以自养硝化为主,外源无机氮源浓度对硝化作用无显著影响,硝化底物NH3的主要来源不是外源硫酸铵,更可能来源于土壤中有机氮的矿化.培养0~14 d,无论有无外加氮源,酸性泥炭土氨氧化细菌(AOB)和古菌(AOA)丰度均显著增加,但不同浓度硫酸铵处理间无显著差异,表明外源无机氮浓度对氨氧化微生物的生长无显著促进作用.与不加乙炔的对照相比,乙炔处理AOB和AOA丰度随时间均无显著变化,推测AOA与AOB在该酸性泥炭土的硝化过程中都可能起一定的作用. 相似文献
