螺类牧食与沉积物类型对苦草生长的影响

在室外实验条件下,研究了螺类牧食与沉积物类型对苦草生长的影响。结果表明:椭圆萝卜螺的牧食对苦草生长有显著影响,牧食损害使苦草的相对生长率明显降低、块茎数量及重量下降。沉积物类型对苦草生长也有明显影响,苦草的相对生长率在营养盐相对丰富的湖泥处理组中要远高于岸泥处理组,而根须数与块茎重量在湖泥处理组中显著低于岸泥处理组。螺类牧食与沉积物类型对苦草的各项生长指标无明显交互作用。     

菹草对湖泊沉积物磷状态的影响

武昌野芷湖湾菹草(PotamogetoncrispusL.)生物量较高位置的沉积物显示明显较高的磷吸附指数,以及据Langmuir方程:C/X=C/Xm+K×1/Xm导出的最大吸附量与吸附强度,这一结果在不同时期与不同采样深度均有体现,故提高沉积物磷的吸附能力应为菹草维持水体较低营养水平的重要机制。铁结合态磷是沉积物磷的主要存在形式,吸附能力的提高可由有机质及其与铁的相互作用部分地得到解释。不同时期菹草生物量较高的沉积物表现明显较低的碱性磷酸酶活性与最大反应速度,降低沉积物有机磷的酶促分解速率应为菹草维持水体低营养水平的另一机制。     

磷和CO2浓度变化对苦草光合生理的影响

为了阐明CO₂浓度和水环境要素变化对沉水植物生长的影响, 采用室外模拟的方法, 研究了不同磷和CO₂浓度条件下苦草叶片(Vallisneria natans)光合生理特征。实验结果表明, 当水体磷浓度处于较高水平时, 苦草叶片荧光参数V_j、M_o降低, 参数ABS/CS_o、DI_o/CS_o、TR_o/CS_o、RC/CS、P_ET显著升高, 其他荧光参数则无显著变化; 高浓度的CO₂在显著降低苦草叶片V_j、ABS/RC、DI_o/RC、ABS/CS_o、DI_o/CS_o的同时, 也显著提高了苦草叶片ψ_o、φ_Eo、ET_o/RC、PI_ABS、F_v/F_m、P_TR、P_ET的参数值, 而对其他荧光参数无显著影响; 在磷与CO₂交互作用方面, 磷与CO₂在V_j、M_o、ψ_o、TR_o/CS_o、RC/CS和P_ET处存在显著的交互作用, 其他荧光参数不显著。可见, 磷或CO₂浓度变化均能显著影响苦草叶片光合生理状态, 高浓度的CO₂可有效改善苦草叶片PSⅡ反应中心光化学性能、电子传递能力及单位有活性反应中心能量的分配, 从而提高苦草叶片的光合能力; 高浓度的磷可在一定程度上改善苦草叶片PSⅡ受、供体状态及电子传递性能。此外, 磷和CO₂存在交互作用, 协同影响苦草叶片的光合能力。     

切割对苦草生长的影响（简报）

切割对苦草有损害作用,植株越大、切割高度越低和切割次数越多,再生能力越小,受到的损害越大。     

衰亡期黑藻与生长期菹草交替生长对水体磷迁移的影响

为利用冷暖种交替控制水体磷污染、抑制水体富营养化,揭示湖泊演化规律和机理。研究设置单季植物组(黑藻组、菹草组)和交替生长组(黑藻组+菹草组)进行实验。交替生长组在黑藻衰亡期种植菹草,监测各组上覆水和底泥中各形态磷含量的变化,计算黑藻衰亡释放磷及菹草生长吸收磷的总量,同时测定环境因子指标。分析沉水植物交替生长(黑藻+菹草)过程对衰亡期沉水植物(黑藻组)释放磷所带来的二次污染的消减作用,并分析环境因子变化与磷含量之间的关系。实验结果表明:黑藻+菹草组显著(P<0.05)降低了上覆水中总磷(TP)、溶解性总磷(DTP)和溶解性活性磷(SRP)的浓度;显著(P<0.05)降低了间隙水中DTP和SRP的浓度。底泥TP含量黑藻组呈上升趋势,黑藻+菹草和菹草组呈下降趋势。在采用菹草生物量期望2倍于衰亡植物黑藻生物量的模拟实验条件下,每实验组沉水植物黑藻衰亡分解所释放的磷为1.51 g,沉水植物菹草生长所富集吸收的磷为1.83 g。因此,菹草具备消减黑藻所释放磷的能力,可作为冷暖种交替控制水体富营养化的备选物种。实验组磷的迁移方向分别为:黑藻组磷迁移最终方向为底泥,黑藻+菹草组和菹草组磷的迁移方向为植物。黑藻+菹草组通过提高环境中DO和ORP,使得水相中磷向沉积物相中迁移,从而使得水相中各形态磷浓度保持在相对较低的水平。     

纹沼螺对苦草生长的影响

在室外受控实验条件下,研究了不同密度(0,150,450个/m2)纹沼螺(Parafossarulus striatulus)对沉水植物苦草(Vallisneria spiralis)生长的影响。结果表明,螺类牧食活动促进了苦草生长,与无螺对照组相比,低密度螺处理组中苦草的相对生长率、株高均增加了20%;高密度组中苦草的相对生长率、叶片数和株高分别增加了28%、15%和27%。分析表明,纹沼螺通过牧食活动降低植物叶片上附着生物干重,从而促进了苦草生长。丰富了螺-草互利关系的研究内容,有助于加深理解水生态系统中生物之间的生态关系。     

伊乐藻、苦草和菹草对磷急性胁迫的响应

水生植被,特别是沉水植被的衰退和消失是水体富营养化过程中的普遍现象[1,2],其原因是多方面的,但较高的水柱氮、磷浓度显然是重要原因之一.     

亚洲苦草与刺苦草的染色体数目和核型

本文以亚洲苦草和刺苦草根尖为实验材料,对其染色体数目及核型进行了研究,结果表明,两个种均为2n=20,同属Stebbins的不对称核型,亚洲苦草为“3B”,刺苦草为“2B”。核型公式分别为:K(2n)=20=2m+12sm+6st,K(2n)=20=2M+2m+14sm+2st。     

动静态水环境下不同种植方式对苦草生长的影响

设置扦插法、纱布包裹法、布袋覆土法3种种植方式,研究苦草（Vallisneria natans（Lour.）Hara）在静态水环境下和水体受到持续扰动的动态条件下不同种植方式对植株生长的影响。结果显示,不同种植方式下苦草的生长差异明显。在苦草形态特征方面,布袋覆土法种植方式下苦草的平均株高和叶宽明显高于扦插法和纱布包裹法,但是其分株数和平均根长小于扦插法和纱布包裹法;在苦草的生物量和地下与地上部分之比方面,布袋覆土法种植方式下苦草的地上、地下部分生物量和总生物量明显大于扦插法和纱布包裹法,但是其地下与地上部分生物量之比小于其他2种方法;在苦草叶片叶绿素a含量方面,布袋覆土法明显高于扦插法和纱布包裹法。动静态水环境只对苦草的分株数有显著差异,静态水环境下分株数大于动态水环境,对其他指标无显著影响。研究结果表明动、静态水环境和不同种植方式对苦草的生长具有显著的影响,布袋覆土法种植方式下单株苦草生长最好;静态水环境下生长的苦草株高、叶宽和生物量等指标均优于动态水环境。     

硝磺草酮、铜单一和复合胁迫对苦草的生长及生理的影响

农药与重金属是水体中常见的污染物,其在水环境中的污染问题已引起全社会的广泛关注。目前关于农药硝磺草酮与铜的研究主要集中在动物与浮游植物上,对大型水生植物的研究较匮乏。为了阐明水体中常见毒性污染物硝磺草酮与铜对水生植物的潜在毒性作用,本研究探究了二者对长江流域的优势种苦草（Vallisneria natans）的生长及生理影响,旨在为水生植物复合污染的生态毒性效应和生态安全评估提供依据。本研究采用水培法,研究了不同浓度硝磺草酮（0、0.01、1、10、20、50 mg/L）、铜（0、0.1、0.3、0.5、1、2 mg/L）以及（硝磺草酮+铜）在（0+0、0.01+0.1、1+0.3、10+0.5、20+1、50 mg/L+2 mg/L）浓度时对苦草的相对生长率、光合色素（叶绿素a、叶绿素b、类胡萝卜素）、抗氧化酶〔超氧化物歧化酶（superoxide dismutase, SOD）、过氧化物酶（peroxidase, POD）、过氧化氢酶（catalase, CAT）〕以及可溶性蛋白含量变化的影响。结果显示,单一硝磺草酮对苦草的生长和光合色素的合成、CAT活性和可溶性蛋白含量具有抑制作用,而对苦草POD活性具有激活效应;单一铜胁迫对苦草生长、光合色素的合成、CAT活性以及可溶性蛋白含量具有显著抑制作用,而对苦草SOD和POD活性具有激活效应;此外,苦草的相对生长率、光合色素、可溶性蛋白含量、CAT活性等指示物对硝磺草酮与铜联合胁迫表现出受害响应,而POD活性显著上升,SOD活性呈现低浓度抑制高浓度促进效应。毒性效应评估结果显示,随着复合胁迫浓度的升高,硝磺草酮和铜对苦草的联合毒性由拮抗作用转为协同作用。硝磺草酮与铜在水体中赋存可能对水生植物产生潜在的生物安全风险,因此要更加关注水体中不同污染物之间综合效应的防治。     

Comparison of the extent of genetic variation of Vallisneria natans and its sympatric congener V. spinulosa in lakes of the middle-lower reaches of the Yangtze River

Vallisneria natans and Vallisneria spinulosa are two morphologically very similar and sympatrically dominant submerged macrophytes in lakes of the middle-lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Genetic variation was compared based on a total of 196 individuals from six V. natans populations and 201 individuals from seven V. spinulosa populations. Using eight ISSR primers, a total of 139 and 129 DNA fragments were generated with 121 being polymorphic in V. natans and 99 in V. spinulosa. The two species maintained higher genetic variation both at the species and population levels in comparison with other aquatic macrophytes. A higher level of genetic diversity among populations was found in V. natans than in V. spinulosa: the percentage of polymorphic loci (PPL) in V. natans was 52-62% vs. 38-47% in V. spinulosa; gene diversity (H) was 0.21 in V. natans vs. 0.17 in V. spinulosa.Both an analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) and F-estimation (F_ST) showed that most of the total genetic variation resided within populations of both species (AMOVA: 85% and 80%; F_ST: 0.132 and 0.202), indicating low genetic differentiation between populations. Principal coordinates analysis (PCA) indicated evident gene flow between populations of both species. The outcrossing reproductive mode and pervasive gene flow might have played important roles in maintaining high genetic diversity and in shaping low population differentiation of the two Vallisneria species, while the extent of clonal growth might account for the different levels of population divergence between them.     

不同光照强度下物种组合对沉水植物苦草种间关系的影响

为了解种间关系对沉水植物群落结构的影响,在不同光照(20%自然光和50%自然光)和不同物种组合下,研究了长江中下游常见优势沉水植物苦草(Vallisneria natans)与黑藻(Hydrilla verticillata)和穗状狐尾藻(Myriophyllum spicatum)的相互作用。结果表明,在低光下,苦草与穗状狐尾藻混种时,苦草生物量、株高和叶数均没有明显变化,当穗状狐尾藻的比例较高时,苦草根长生长受到抑制,根叶比呈下降趋势;在高光下,穗状狐尾藻比例的增加会促进苦草单株生物量和叶生物量的增加,而对苦草株高、根长和叶数无显著影响;与黑藻混种相比,苦草与穗状狐尾藻混种时,苦草的株高、根长和叶数均无显著差异,而苦草的单株生物量和叶生物量均呈降低趋势。因此,物种组合和混种比例均会影响苦草与其他物种的相互作用关系,进而影响沉水植被的群落动态。     

The importance of vegetative and sexual dispersal of Luronium natans

Luronium natans (L.) Rafin. is a very rare macrophyte even though it has the ability to grow in a wide variety of habitat types. Previous studies leave two possibilities for this pattern: the species has a poor ability to disperse and establish or it is unable to grow and develop a sustainable population after colonization.     

水体铜污染对苦草生长及叶绿素荧光特性的影响

该文以苦草(Vallisneria natans)为材料,研究了不同浓度铜污染水体对其叶/根长、生物量、光合色素含量、体内重金属含量及叶绿素荧光参数的影响。结果表明:随着水体铜浓度的增加,苦草的叶长、根长、生物量均显著下降;光合色素含量逐渐下降,其中叶绿素a比叶绿素b下降明显,类胡萝卜素下降幅度最小;叶片铜含量随铜浓度的增加显著上升(P0.05),各处理组根铜含量没有显著性差异,在水中铜低于0.5mg·L-1的环境中苦草具有正常的光合活性。除0.5 mg·L-1处理组外,最大荧光(Fm)、最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、潜在光化学效率(Fv/Fo)、光化学淬灭系数(qP)与有效量子产量[Y(Ⅱ)]均比对照组显著降低(P0.05),而非光化学淬灭效率(qN)、调节性能量耗散的量子产量[Y(NPQ)]、非调节性能量耗散的量子产量[Y(NO)]均呈上升趋势,其中Fv/Fo对铜污染反应最为灵敏。综合各参数变化情况,随着水体铜浓度的增加,苦草生长受到抑制,叶片利用光能的效率下降,PSⅡ反应中心的电子传递受到明显的抑制;苦草通过自身调节以热的形式将过剩光能耗散,以减轻PSⅡ反应中心受伤害的程度;苦草是铜超富集植物,其可作为低浓度铜污染水体生态修复的备选物种。     

Seasonal fluxes of O2, DIC and CH4 in sediments with Vallisneria spiralis: indications for radial oxygen loss

Seasonal fluxes of dissolved oxygen, inorganic carbon and methane were measured in microcosms containing vegetated (Vallisneria spiralis L.) and unvegetated sediments under controlled laboratory conditions. We tested if measured fluxes were affected by a moderate (6% as loss on ignition, LOI) and an elevated (10%) organic matter content (OM) in sediments. Microcosms were set up with plants and sediments collected from two riverine sites, upstream (moderate OM load) and downstream (elevated OM load) of a wastewater treatment plant. Light and dark fluxes were measured and V. spiralis net primary production and respiration rates were calculated. Unvegetated sediments were always net heterotrophic and behaved as methane sources to the water column, with significantly higher CH₄ release during summer from sediment with elevated OM load. Vegetated sediments were always net autotrophic with attenuated or negative CH₄ fluxes, suggesting the occurrence of processes within the rhizosphere that inhibit methane production or favor its oxidation. Vegetated sediments had an unbalanced O₂ to DIC stoichiometry, with average photosynthetic quotients varying between 0.30 and 0.68, significantly below one. The missing oxygen amount varied seasonally, with a minimum in the summer coinciding with the highest water temperature, but was not dependent upon the two OM levels. Overall these results suggest that V. spiralis is likely to transport a significant proportion of photosynthetically produced oxygen to the rhizosphere.     

Tolerance and remedial function of rooted submersed macrophyte Vallisneria spiralis to phenanthrene in freshwater sediments

Tolerance and remedial function of submersed macrophyte Vallisneria spiralis to phenanthrene in freshwater sediments were investigated by manipulating initial phenanthrene concentrations in sediments from 8 to 80 mg kg⁻¹ dry sediment. The biomass growth of V. spiralis on phenanthrene-spiked sediments was not adversely affected until initial phenanthrene concentrations in sediments increased to 80 mg kg⁻¹ dry sediment. V. spiralis might evolve adaptive mechanisms to toxic contaminants in sediment, and then could change the growth patterns in order to decrease the toxicity on its growth. The removal efficiencies of phenanthrene from the planted sediments were 18% higher than those from the sediments without plant even under an initial phenanthrene concentration of 80 mg kg⁻¹ dry sediments. The enhanced removal of phenanthrene in sediments by the plant might be achieved mainly by the synergism between plant roots and microbes in the rhizosphere.     

Effects of depth, sediment and grazers on the degradation of drifting filamentous algae (Cladophora glomerata and Pilayella littoralis)

Eutrophication in the northern Baltic Sea promotes growth of annual filamentous algae. The algae detach, gather at the bottom and give rise to algal mats of varying size, density, composition and condition. Dense mats of filamentous algae induce anoxia, which in turn leads to faunal mortality. By a set of field experiments, we have studied the fate of the abundant Cladophora glomerata after detaching from the rocky substrate, and the effect of water depth and sediment on its decay. Further, we have studied the importance of common mesograzers (Gammarus and Idotea) on the rate of degradation of C. glomerata and Pilayella littoralis.Our results show that loose algae at shallow sites (8 m) decompose faster than algae in deeper (18 m) areas. Drifting C. glomerata on the sediment is more rapidly broken down and dissolved than algae floating in the water column, which depends on higher microbiological activity. Dominant amphipods (Gammarus spp) colonise near-shore drift algae quickly, and juvenile bivalves (Cerastoderma glaucum) utilise algae in the water column for settling. Moderate natural densities of grazers (Gammarus spp and Idotea baltica) in the drifting algae did not increase the degradation rates of C. glomerata and P. littoralis. C. glomerata was completely decomposed in 4 months.Our experiments demonstrate the effects of position (depth, water/sediment) and grazing on the degradation of drifting filamentous algae. Mass developments of opportunistic algae occur annually in the study area, and information on the destiny of detached drift algae may help us to predict their longevity and the damage they cause, and hence, to decide on long-term measures needed to improve environmental conditions.     

Septal pore complex morphology in the Agaricomycotina (Basidiomycota) with emphasis on the Cantharellales and Hymenochaetales

The ultrastructure of septa and septum-associated septal pore caps are important taxonomic markers in the Agaricomycotina (Basidiomycota, Fungi). The septal pore caps covering the typical basidiomycetous dolipore septum are divided into three main phenotypically recognized morphotypes: vesicular-tubular (including the vesicular, sacculate, tubular, ampulliform, and globular morphotypes), imperforate, and perforate. Until recently, the septal pore cap-type reflected the higher-order relationships within the Agaricomycotina. However, the new classification of Fungi resulted in many changes including revision of existing and addition of new orders. Therefore, the septal pore cap ultrastructure of more than 325 species as reported in literature was related to this new classification. In addition, the septal pore cap ultrastructures of Rickenella fibula and Cantharellus formosus were examined by transmission electron microscopy. Both fungi have dolipore septa associated with perforate septal pore caps. These results combined with data from the literature show that the septal pore cap-type within orders of the Agaricomycotina is generally monomorphic, except for the Cantharellales and Hymenochaetales.It appears from the fungal phylogeny combined with the septal pore cap ultrastructure that the vesicular-tubular and the imperforate type both may have arisen from endoplasmic reticulum. Thereafter, the imperforate type eventually gave rise to the perforate septal pore cap-type.     

土著菌根真菌和混生植物对羊草生长和磷营养的影响

植物种间相互作用直接影响植物生长、根系可塑性及养分吸收,而与植物共生的丛枝菌根真菌可以改变植物个体和种间养分资源的分配,具有协调种间竞争的潜力.以我国北方草甸草原建群种羊草(Leymus chinensis)和混生植物紫花苜蓿(Medicago sativa)及独行菜(Lepidium spetalum)为供试植物,通过模拟盆栽试验,研究了土著菌根真菌和混生植物对羊草生长、根系形态及磷营养的影响.试验结果表明,土著菌根真菌能够与羊草及紫花苜蓿形成良好共生,而独行菜根内基本未形成菌根共生结构.土著菌根真菌显著降低了羊草及独行菜的生物量,但促进了紫花苜蓿的生长;混种紫花苜蓿显著促进了羊草的生长,而混种独行菜则显著抑制了羊草的生长.土著菌根真菌对羊草根系形态的影响表现出与植株生物量类似的趋势,但不同混生植物对羊草根系生长均无显著影响.土著菌根真菌和混生植物对羊草植株磷含量均无显著影响.与混生植物相比,羊草具有较高的比根长和磷吸收能力,这也解释了其负向菌根依赖性.研究证实了菌根真菌和植物种间相互作用均是影响草原优势植物生长和根系发育的重要因素,深入研究其交互作用对于科学管理草地生态系统,维持植物群落的稳定性和生态系统生产力具有重要意义.
