The potential of water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes L.) and duckweed (Lemna minor L.) to remove chlorpyrifos in water was investigated under laboratory greenhouse conditions. At initial chlorpyrifos concentrations of 0.0, 0.1 and 0.5 mg/L, the relative growth rates (RGR) of L. minor and P. stratiotes were not significantly different. In contrast, in the presence of 1 mg/L chlorpyrifos the RGR was significantly inhibited, giving an observed fresh weight based RGR(FW) for P. stratiotes and L. minor from day 0 to 7 of -0.036 and -0.023 mg/g/day, respectively. The maximum removal of chlorpyrifos by P. stratiotes and L. minor, when chlorpyrifos was at an initial culture concentration of 0.5 mg/L, was 82% and 87%, respectively, with disappearance rate constants under these conditions of 2.94, 10.21 and 12.14 microg h(-1) for the control (no plants), and with P. stratiotes and L. minor, respectively, giving actual corrected plant removal rate constants of 7.27 and 9.20 microg h(-1) for P. stratiotes and L. minor, respectively. The bioconcentration factor (BCF) of L. minor was significantly greater than that for P. stratiotes and therefore, at least under these greenhouse-based conditions, L. minor was more efficient than P. stratiotes for the accelerated removal of chlorpyrifos from water.  相似文献

This field-scale hydroponic experiment investigated the effects of plant density and nutrient levels on arsenic (As) removal by the As-hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata L. (Chinese brake fern). All ferns were grown in plastic tanks containing 30 L of As-contaminated groundwater (130 microg x L(-1) As) collected from South Florida. The treatments consisted of four plant densities (zero, one, two, or four plants per 30 L), two nitrogen (N) concentrations (50% or 100% of 0.25-strength Hoagland solution [HS]), and two phosphorous (P) concentrations (15% and 30% of 0.25 strength HS). While low P was more effective than high P for plant As removal initially, N levels showed little effect. At 15% P, it took 3 wk for the ferns at a plant density of four to reduce As to less than 10 microg L(-1) (USEPA and WHO standard), whereas it took 4-6 wk at plant densities of one or two. For reused ferns, established plants with more extensive roots than "first-time" ferns, a low plant density of one plant/30 L was more effective, reducing As in water to less than 10 microg L(-1) in 8 h. This translates to an As removal rate of 400 microg h(-l) plant(-1), which is the highest rate reported to date. Arsenic-concentration in tanks with no plants as a control remained high throughout the experiment. Using more established ferns supplemented with dilute nutrients (0.25 HS with 25% N and 15% P) with optimized plant density (one plant per 30 L) reduced interplant competition and secondary contamination from nutrients, and can be recommended for phytofiltration of As-contaminated groundwater. This study demonstrated that P. vittata is effective in remediating As-contaminated groundwater to meet recommended standards.  相似文献

A plant-microbial bioassay, based on the aquatic macrophyte Lemna minor L. (duckweed), was used to monitor biodegradation of nano- and micromolar concentrations of the phenylurea herbicide linuron. After 7 days of exposure to linuron, log-logistic-based dose-response analysis revealed significant growth inhibition on the total frond area of L. minor when linuron concentrations > or = 80 nM were added to the bioassay. A plant-protective effect was obtained for all concentrations > 80 nM by inoculation with either a bacterial consortium or Variovorax paradoxus WDL1, which is probably the main actor in this consortium. The outcome of the plant-microbe-toxicant interaction was also assessed using pulse amplitude-modulated chlorophyll a fluorescence and chlorophyll a fluorescence imaging. Linuron toxicity to L. minor became apparent as a significant decrease in the effective quantum yield (Delta F/Fm') within 90 min after exposure of the plants to linuron concentrations > or = 160 nM. Inoculation of the bioassay with the linuron-degrading bacteria neutralized the effect on the effective quantum yield at concentrations > or = 160 nM, indicating microbial degradation of these concentrations. The chlorophyll a fluorescence-based Lemna bioassay described here offers a sensitive, fast and cost-effective approach to study the potential of biodegrading microorganisms to break down minute concentrations of photosynthesis-inhibiting xenobiotics.  相似文献

Three aquatic plants Eichhornia crassipes, Lemna minor and Spirodela polyrhhiza were used in laboratory for the removal of heavy metals from the coal mining effluent. Plants were grown singly as well as in combination during 21 days phytoremediation experiment. Results revealed that combination of E. crassipes and L. minor was the most efficient for the removal of heavy metals while E. crassipes was the most efficient in monoculture. Significant correlations between metal concentration in final water and macrophytes were obtained. Translocation factor i.e. ratio of shoot to root metal concentration revealed that metals were largely retained in the roots of aquatic macrophytes. Analytical results showed that plant roots have accumulated heavy metals approximately 10 times of its initial concentration. These plants were also subjected to toxicity assessment and no symptom of metal toxicity was found therefore, this method can be applied on the large scale treatment of waste water where volumes generated are very high and concentrations of pollutants are low.  相似文献

Plants show enhanced phytoremediation of heavy metal contaminated soils particularly in response to fungal inoculation. Present study was conducted to find out the influence of Nickel (Ni) toxicity on plant biomass, growth, chlorophyll content, proline production and metal accumulation by L. usitatissimum (flax) in the presence of Glomus intraradices. Flax seedlings of both inoculated with G. intraradices and non-inoculated were exposed to different concentrations i.e., 250, 350 and 500 ppm of Ni at different time intervals. Analysis of physiological parameters revealed that Ni depressed the growth and photosynthetic activity of plants. However, the inoculation of plants with arbuscular mycorrhizae (G. intraradices) partially helped in the alleviation of Ni toxicity as indicated by improved plant growth under Ni stress. Ni uptake of non- mycorrhizal flax plants was increased by 98% as compared to control conditions whereas inoculated plants showed 19% more uptake when compared with the non-inoculated plants. Mycorrhizal plants exhibited increasing capacity to remediate contaminated soils along with improved growth. Thus, AM assisted phytoremediation helps in the accumulation of Ni in plants to reclaim Ni toxic soils. Based on our findings, it can be concluded that the role of flax plants and mycorrhizal fungi is extremely important in phytoremediation.  相似文献

Stomatal response, chlorophyll and carotenoid content, and photosynthetic electron transport were investigated in Medicago sativa L. (cv. Aragón) and Trifolium pratense L. (cv. Violeta) after plants were exposed to various glyphosate [ N -(phophonomethyl)glycine] concentrations. The herbicide decreased the content of photosynthetic pigments when applied at concentrations of 0.15, 1.5 and 15 m M , showing a greater effect on chlorophyll pigments than on carotenoids. The chlorophyll a / b ratio increased as a consequence of a major effect on chlorophyll b. Glyphosate treatment (15 m M ) led to a closure of stomates after seven days in both species. The results suggest that glyphosate acts as an electron transport inhibitor, because glyphosate pre-incubated chloroplasts, isolated from control plants, showed reduced photosystem II and photosystem I activities. In general, clover was more sensitive to glyphosate than glyphosate, lucerne.  相似文献

Four coastal ecosystems with contrasting characteristics were sampled in Costa Rica (2000-2002). Oil pollution status, expressed as the fraction of dissolved/dispersed petroleum hydrocarbons related to chrysene equivalents, was determined by the molecular fluorescence analytical technique. A total of 130 water samples were taken, from the Caribbean (Moín Bay), and from the Pacific (Bahía Culebra, Gulf of Nicoya and Dulce Gulf). On one occasion, seven samples along the Puntarenas estuary were also analysed. In Moín the mean and standard deviation were 0.10 microg x L(-1) +/- 0.18 micro x L(-1), ranging from non detectable (nd) to 0.65 microg x L(-1). For the Pacific ecosystems the total range was from nd to 0.37 microg x L(-1). In Bahia Culebra no fluorescence signals were obtained. In the Gulf of Nicoya the mean and standard deviation were 0.04 microg x L(-1) +/- 0.09 microg x L(-1), from nd to 0.33 microg x L(-1). Values in Dulce Gulf were 0.05 microg x L(-1) +/- 0.11 microg x L(-1), from nd to 0.37 microg x L(-1). Along the Puntarenas estuary the range was 0.17 to 5.91 microg x L(-1), with a mean of 1.21 microg x L(-1) and a standard deviation of +/- 2.10 microg x L(-1). The four coastal ecosystems had concentrations below the 10 microg x L(-1) limit for polluted oceanic areas. The Puntarenas estuary reflects the influence of antropogenic activities from and around the City of Puntarenas. These levels are considered low for inshore waters.  相似文献

草甘膦对可食用蓝藻葛仙米生长和生理的影响   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
葛仙米(N.sphaeroides)的产量和产地面积逐年减少,这可能与当地广泛使用除草剂草甘膦有关。为此,本文测定了不同浓度(0.15、0.30、0.45、0.6mmol/L)的草甘膦处理的葛仙米的颗粒大小、干重、叶绿素荧光、叶绿素浓度。所有测量参数与浓度和时间显著相关:0.15mmol/L处理组的颗粒直径较对照组小15%(2d后);叶绿素a浓度和最大量子产率(Fv/Fm)在最高浓度组(0.6mmol/L)4d后开始受到影响;第8天,相对生长速率(以干重计算,大于0.15mmol/L)、光合作用活性(大于0.3mm01/L)均受显著抑制,其中0.15mmol/L处理组相对生长下降60%,而更高浓度处理组出现负生长,0.6mm01/L组藻体漂白死亡。结合实验结果,文章讨论了草甘膦的毒性机理及其对葛仙米(N.sphaeroides)的潜在影响。  相似文献

浮床植物系统对富营养化水体中氮、磷净化特征的初步研究   总被引:75,自引:0,他引:75  
以浮床空心菜(Ipomoea aquatica)、水芹(Oenanthe javanica)和无植物系统为对象,研究了其在富营养化水体中对N、P的去除及其N2O的排放情况.结果表明,浮床植物系统对水体中N、P具有良好的净化效果,植物组织所累积的N、P量分别占各自系统去除量的40.32%~63.87%,说明植物的同化吸收作用是N、P去除的主要途径.换水周期内浮床植物系统中硝化反应进行充分,而反硝化反应相对缓慢,导致系统具有较高的NH4+-N去除率,而产生NO3--N累积.植物的存在降低了系统中N2O的排放通量.生长较好的空心菜系统在换水前后平均N2O排放量最低,为17.14μgN·m-2h-1,空白高达8.08μgN·m-2h-1,水芹为37.38μg N·m-2·h-1.  相似文献

In this study, laboratory tests were performed in order to examine growth characteristics of floating aquatic macrophytes (Lemna gibba and Lemna minor) in the presence of wastewater with circulation. The results showed that circulation of the waste water enhanced the kinetics of the process, as compared to the control systems. However, prolonged application of high circulation level had a different effect. In the presence of circulation with aquatic plants, there was additional 85.3-88.2% for BODs and 59.6-66.8% for COD decreases in the water quality indicators. In this study, the effectiveness of L. gibba and L. minor with circulation addition for the removal of four heavy metals (Pb, Ni, Mn, and Cu) from waste water was also investigated. Results from analysis confirmed the accumulation of different metals within the plant and a corresponding decrease of metals in the waste water. At the end of the study of circulation, L. gibba provided the metal removal for Cu, Pb, Ni, and Mn in the waste water as the ratio of 57%, 60%, 60%, and 62%, respectively. In this context, the best results were obtained when the action of L. gibba and L. minor plants, was combined with that of circulation. It is shown that in the presence of L. gibba and L. minor plants that are supplemented with circulation, the national standards of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) 27-33 mgL(-1) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) 62-78 mgL(-1) for L. minor and L. gibba, respectively, were reached after treatment. The new results can be used for design calculations regarding expected removal of pollutants by aquatic floating plants.  相似文献

The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus etunicatum, on growth, water status, chlorophyll concentration and photosynthesis in maize (Zea mays L.) plants was investigated in pot culture under low temperature stress. The maize plants were placed in a sand and soil mixture at 25°C for 7 weeks, and then subjected to 5°C, 15°C and 25°C for 1 week. Low temperature stress decreased AM root colonization. AM symbiosis stimulated plant growth and had higher root dry weight at all temperature treatments. Mycorrhizal plants had better water status than corresponding non-mycorrhizal plants, and significant differences were found in water conservation (WC) and water use efficiency (WUE) regardless of temperature treatments. AM colonization increased the concentrations of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and chlorophyll a + b. The maximal fluorescence (Fm), maximum quantum efficiency of PSII primary photochemistry (Fv/Fm) and potential photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fo) were higher, but primary fluorescence (Fo) was lower in AM plants compared with non-AM plants. AM inoculation notably increased net photosynthetic rate (Pn) and transpiration rate (E) of maize plants. Mycorrhizal plants had higher stomatal conductance (gs) than non-mycorrhizal plants with significant difference only at 5°C. Intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci) was lower in mycorrhizal than that in non-mycorrhizal plants, especially under low temperature stress. The results indicated that AM symbiosis protect maize plants against low temperature stress through improving the water status and photosynthetic capacity.  相似文献

不同浓度铜对紫背萍和青萍色素含量及抗氧化酶系统的影响   总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11  
通过水培试验研究了不同浓度的重金属Cu对紫背萍(Spirodela polyrrhiza)和青萍(Lemna minor)的色素含量和抗氧化酶系统的影响.结果表明,低浓度Cu(0.056 mg·L-1)的处理下,紫背萍和青萍的叶绿素a、叶绿素b和叶绿素(a+b)的含量均出现不同程度的增加,分别高出其对照11%、46%、22%和8%、15%、11%,而在高浓度Cu(0.18~5.60 mg·L-1)的处理下,上述色素含量均显著下降,平均下降幅度分别达63%、62%、65%和46%、44%、45%.紫背萍体内丙二醛(MDA)含量为青萍的2.57倍.两种浮萍的超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和过氧化物酶(POD)的活性均随Cu浓度的增加而呈先升后降的趋势,紫背萍体内3种酶活性在Cu浓度仅为0.18 mg·L-1时即达峰值,随后则大幅下降,而青萍体内3种酶活性却在Cu浓度分别升高到0.56、1.0和1.0 mg·L-1时才达到峰值.可见,在Cu胁迫下,紫背萍受Cu毒害较青萍深,且其体内抗氧化酶系统也较青萍敏感.  相似文献

Arsenic is considered a primary pollutant in drinking water because of its high toxicity. The unique property of water hyacinth roots (Eichhornia crassipes) to remove heavy metals is of great signiicance for the development of a cost-effective phytoremediation technology. An experimental test program was conducted at the United States Environmental Protection (USEPA) Test and Evaluation (T&E) Facility in Cincinnati, Ohio, to investigate the potential of water hyacinth roots to remove arsenic from spiked drinking water samples. Water hyacinth roots were washed, dried, and powdered to provide dried hyacinth roots (DHR) for batch and continuous column experiments, Various quantities of DHR were added to water spiked with 300 micrograms per liter (microg/L) arsenic. A concentration of 20 g/L DHR was found adequate for greater than 90% arsenic removal in the batch tests. Based on the batch test results, continuous column experiments were performed using a 2-L column. In a continuous system, 15 L of water containing 300 microg/L arsenic were treated to below 20 microg/L using 50 g DHR, and 44 L of water containing 600 microg/L arsenic were treated to below 20 microg/L using 100 g DHR, giving a specific accumulation rate of approximately 260 microg As/g DHR.  相似文献

The ability of in vitro roots cultures of Typha latifolia and Scirpus americanus to remove metals was studied. Roots were cultivated on Murashige-Skoog medium with 15 microg L(-1) Cr 11, 60 microg L(-1) Pb II or 1.8 mg L(-1) Mn II. Adsorbed metal to root surface was removed by washing with 0.042% HNO3. T. latifolia roots were able to uptake 68.8 microg Pb g(-1), 22.1 microg Cr g(-1) and 1680 microg Mn g(-1), while the S. americanus roots removed 148.3 microg Pb g(-1), 40.7 microg Cr g(-1) and 4037 microg Mn g(-1). About 80-90% of Pb and Cr were absorbed in both cultures. On the contrary, the Mn removal was due mainly to an adsorption process (82-86%). In comparison to the T. latifolia cultures, S. americanus cultures were twofold more efficient to remove Pb and Cr, and threefold more efficient to remove Mn. Both plant species capture metals in the following order: Cr >Pb >Mn. This investigation confirms that in vitro roots cultures could be an alternative as a phytoremediation approach for contaminated water with heavy metals.  相似文献

The effect of growing Sesamum indicum L. on the dissipation of lindane (gamma-HCH) was studied in spiked soil. For this, S. indicum was grown with four different concentrations of lindane (5, 10, 15, and 20 microg g(-1)). Plant growth, yield, photosynthetic pigments, soluble protein, microbial biomass carbon, lindane uptake, residual lindane concentration in soil and percentage dissipation of lindane from soil were analyzed at 25, 90, and 124 d. The accumulation of lindane in test plants was linearly related to the soil concentration (r2 = 0.897-0.979). At maturity, the accumulation of lindane in S. indicum grown with four spiked concentrations reached up to 7.98, 13.72, 23.71, and 33.29 microg g(-1) dry matter, respectively. There was a marked difference in the dissipation of lindane in vegetated and non-vegetated soils (p < 0.01). After final harvesting, the residual lindane concentrations in four spiked concentrations were reduced by 77.56, 70.12, 62.51, and 58.7%, respectively. Agronomic practice for the onsite application of this species is discussed. Based on the present study, it was calculated that S. indicum could accumulate 2237-2611 mg lindane per acre after 124 d cultivation. S. indicum could thus be used for the phytoremediation of lindane contaminated soil.  相似文献

Marine water quality criteria for metals are largely driven by the extremely sensitive embryo-larval toxicity of Mytilus sp. Here we assess the toxicity of four dissolved metals (Cu, Zn, Ni, Cd) in the mussel Mytilus trossolus, at various salinity levels while also examining the modifying effects of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) on metal toxicity. In 48 h embryo development tests in natural seawater, measured EC50 values were 6.9-9.6 microg L(-1) (95% C.I.=5.5-10.8 microg L(-1)) for Cu, 99 microg L(-1) (86-101) for Zn, 150 microg L(-1) (73-156) for Ni, and 502 microg L(-1) (364-847) for Cd. A salinity threshold of >20 ppt (approximately 60% full strength seawater) was required for normal control development. Salinity in the 60-100% range did not alter Cu toxicity. Experimental addition of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from three sources reduced Cu toxicity; for example the EC50 of embryos developing in seawater with 20 mg C L(-1) was 39 microg Cu L(-1) (35.2-47.2) a 4-fold increase in Cu EC50. The protective effects of DOC were influenced by their distinct physicochemical properties. Protection appears to be related to higher fulvic acid and lower humic acid content as operationally defined by fluorescence spectroscopy. The fact that DOC from freshwater sources provides protection against Cu toxicity in seawater suggests that extrapolation from freshwater toxicity testing may be possible for saltwater criteria development, including development of a saltwater Biotic Ligand Model for prediction of Cu toxicity.  相似文献

铜污染对野艾蒿生长发育的胁迫及伤害   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
通过水培试验,研究了Cu污染对野艾蒿生长发育的胁迫伤害.试验设Cu浓度为2.5、5、10、20和40 mg·L-1,以植物生长指标及生理指标为测试指标,试验周期14 d.结果表明, 低浓度Cu处理(2.5 mg·L-1)对野艾蒿生长有促进作用,但随Cu浓度增高(5~40 mg·LL-1)则产生抑制效应.各项生长指标均与Cu浓度呈极显著负相关,叶绿素含量也产生类似变化.几种光合色素对Cu的敏感性顺序为:叶绿素a>叶绿素a+b>叶绿素b>类胡萝卜素.叶细胞膜渗透性、O2-·产生速率和丙二醛(MDA)含量在Cu浓度为2.5 mg·L-1时较对照略有下降,再随Cu浓度升高而不断上升.POD、SOD和CAT活性随Cu浓度升高先上升,后下降,与根系耐性指数变化一致.在Cu浓度不超过20 mg·L-1情况下,根系耐性指数>0.5;Cu浓度为40 mg·L-1时,根系耐性指数降低为0.36.  相似文献

通过水培试验,探讨了不同NO3-浓度胁迫及恢复对黄瓜幼苗叶片叶绿素含量、叶绿素荧光参数及ATPase活性的影响.结果表明,胁迫7 d后,高浓度NO3-(168 mmol·L-1)可极显著提高叶绿素a、叶绿素b、总叶绿素和类胡萝卜素含量,极显著提高初始荧光(Fo)、Mg ATPase和Ca-ATPase活性,而PSⅡ原初光能转化效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ潜在活性(Fv/Fo)和PSⅡ光合电子传递量子效率(ΦPSⅡ),却随NO3-浓度的增加而降低.恢复7 d后,所有处理叶绿素和类胡萝卜素含量均低于对照;初始荧光基本都恢复至对照水平;PSⅡ原初光能转化效率和PSⅡ光合电子传递量子效率在NO3-浓度低于126 mmol·L-1时,基本恢复至对照水平,而高于这一水平时,仍显著低于对照;PSⅡ潜在活性在NO3-浓度为42和126 mmol·L-1的处理基本达对照水平,其它处理仍极显著低于对照;Mg-ATPase和Ca-ATPase活性均出现先降低后升高的变化趋势.  相似文献
