绿僵菌产海藻糖水解酶培养条件研究

丝状真菌绿僵菌能产生一系列二糖水解酶,其中包括海藻糖水解酶。这些酶在绿僵菌对昆虫的致病过程中起着重要的作用。本文研究了不同碳源、氮源对金龟子绿僵菌Metarhizium anisopliae var. acridum菌株CQMa102产生与分解昆虫血淋巴中海藻糖等二糖相关的海藻糖水解酶活性的影响。结果表明:分别以葡萄糖、麦芽糖、蔗糖、山梨醇和可溶性淀粉为碳源,金龟子绿僵菌均可产生海藻糖水解酶,但最佳碳源是可溶性淀粉,因为由其诱导产生的海藻糖水解酶具有最高的总活性和比活性以及更多的同工酶,山梨醇次之。硝态氮(NaNO₃)作为唯一氮源时,几乎检测不出海藻糖水解酶活性,而铵态氮((NH₄)₂SO₄)或NaNO₃和有机氮(蛋白胨和酵母浸膏)混合氮源作氮源时,海藻糖水解酶活性都很高。在绿僵菌菌丝提取液和滤液的海藻糖水解酶活性比较中发现:CQMa102在多数碳源的培养基中产生的海藻糖水解酶主要分泌到培养基中,仅有少数结合在细胞壁上。

Production of Acinetobacter radioresistens lipase with repeated batch culture in presence of nonwoven fabric.

Cultivation of Acinetobacter radioresistens on n-hexadecane for lipase production was investigated with repeated batch culture in the presence of a hydrophobic nonwoven fabric. Lipase production followed the growth-associated model, and the repeated batch culture could achieve both high enzyme yield and increased volumetric productivity. The fabric was shown to be able to disperse n-hexadecane, to adsorb the unused hydrocarbon, and to retain bioemulsifiers excreted from the cells; therefore, it enhanced cell growth and, in turn, lipase production. In the repeated batch culture in the absence of the fabric, lipase yield and volumetric productivity were found to be 21 U/mL and 875 U/L. h, respectively. However, if the fabric was equipped in the fermentor, lipase yield and volumetric productivity increased to 30 U/mL and 2500 U/L. h, respectively. The lipase production profile could be further improved by raising the amount of nitrogen source and, as a result, a lipase yield of 54 U/mL and a volumetric productivity of 2250 U/L. h were obtained. In this study we assess the beneficial effects of nonwoven fabric on lipase production.     

Treatment of saline wastewater by the activated sludge with nonwoven fabric separation

Direct membrane separation using nonwoven fabric was applied to saline wastewater treatment by an activated sludge process. A nonwoven fabric module was immersed in an aeration tank. The part of treated was filtered through the module by suction and the rest of that was separated by a settlingtank. Various F/M ratios and salt concentrations were applied to investigate stable flux as well as pollutant removal. The pollutant removal efficiencies of nonwoven fabric separation was not affected by F/M ratios and salt concentrations and was higher than that of settling tank separation. The decline in flux was seemed to be caused by the biofilm on nonwoven fabricsurface     

Characterisation of optimum cultural environmental conditions for the production of high numbers of Metarhizium anisopliae blastospores with enhanced ecological fitness

The aim of this study was the production of high numbers of M. anisopliae blastospores with enhanced germination efficiency under conditions of water-stress (ecological fitness). Different nitrogen sources and concentrations were screened for their ability to induce blastospore production while keeping pH and water activity (a_w) at fixed levels (6.8, and 0.98 a_w, respectively). After optimum nitrogen status was determined (cornsteep solid (CS) + yeast extract (YE); or cottonseed flour (CF) + YE), the effect of interaction of nitrogen source, pH (3.5, 5, 6.8, 8, 9 and 10) and solutes for a_w adjustment (KCl, NaCl, PEG 200) on blastospore production, endogenous polyol content (glycerol, erythritol, arabitol and mannitol) and total protein, were determined. For both ionic (NaCl, KCl) and non-ionic solutes (PEG 200), optimum blastospore production (between 4×10⁷ and 2×10⁸ blastospores ml^-1) and growth occurred in the pH range 6.8-8, with the CF + YE nitrogen profile giving higher yields than CS + YE. Optimum conditions for high erythritol and total protein endogenous concentrations (40.37-73.44 and 14.33-18.90 mg g^-1 fresh weight, respectively) occurred between pH 6.8 and 8 by ionic a_w modification (KCl, NaCl) and with the CF + YE nitrogen profile. Germination of blastospores produced under these cultural conditions was between 62 and 89% under conditions of water-stress (0.96 a_w). On the other hand, blastospores with lower amounts of erythritol and total protein content had decreased germination (8-67%). These results could have significant implications for developing a liquid fermentation medium for the production of high numbers of fungal propagules with enhanced efficacy under non-optimum environmental conditions.     

An improved cage system for the bioassay of Metarhizium anisopliae on Thrips tabaci (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

The ability of thrips and other minute insects to escape from conventional assay cups led to development of a successful assay chamber. In the present study, we evaluated three bioassay systems for thrips; Tashiro cage, microtube assay and leaf sandwich assay and introduced an improved thrips entomopathogenic bioassay system (TEBS). Our objective was to investigate the effect of Metarhizium anisopliae on Thrips tabaci using an easy-to-use and inexpensive holding chamber that would produce bioassay results with acceptable levels of accuracy and precision. In our assays, we found that escape of second-instar larvae from TEBS was significantly less than those of other methods which we tested. Our results indicated that our assay system was more suitable than the other conventional assays for the bioassay of entomopathogenic fungi on T. tabaci.

Environmental contamination with Metarhizium anisopliae from fungal bands for control of the Asian longhorned beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)

Our objective was to determine whether conidia from non-woven fiber bands impregnated with Metarhizium anisopliae F 52 could be spread to other parts of the environment, and whether Anoplophora glabripennis could become infected with conidia dispersed from fungal bands. In the field, bands containing M. anisopliae were hung at 3 m height on 15 trees. Bark samples were taken 10, 20, and 30 cm above the bands and 10, 30, and 60 cm below the bands 2, 5, and 9 days after band placement to quantify conidial densities. There were more conidia in samples taken below bands compared with samples taken above bands. A significant positive correlation was found between rainfall and the occurrence of conidia on any of the bark samples. A laboratory study was conducted to determine whether conidia from M. anisopliae fungal bands could be spread to other parts of the environment by A. glabripennis adults and whether A. glabripennis could become infected by conidia dispersed from fungal bands. One or five adult A. glabripennis were used to contaminate artificial environments with conidia. All adults subsequently exposed to contaminated environments were killed by fungal infection. Beetles exposed to environments that had been contaminated by five beetles died in fewer days compared with environments contaminated by one beetle. Beetles in both density treatments died in fewer days than beetles exposed to environments without M. anisopliae conidia. Our results indicate that environmental contamination with conidia from fungal bands can occur, and that adult A. glabripennis can acquire infection from a contaminated environment.     

Comparison of Metarhizium isolates for biocontrol of Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in chickpea

Metarhizium isolates from soil (53) and insect hosts (10) were evaluated for extracellular production of cuticle degrading enzyme (CDE) activities such as chitinase, chitin deacetylase (CDA), chitosanase, protease and lipase. Regression analysis demonstrated the relation of CDE activities with Helicoverpa armigera mortality. On basis of this relation, ten isolates were selected for further evaluation. Subsequently, based on LT₅₀ of the 10 isolates towards H. armigera, five isolates were selected. Out of these five isolates, three were selected on the basis of higher conidia production (60–75 g/kg rice), faster sedimentation time (ST₅₀) (2.3–2.65 h in 0.1% (w/v) Tween 80) and lower LC₅₀ (1.4–5.7×10³ conidia/mL) against H. armigera. Finally, three Metarhizium isolates were selected for the molecular fingerprinting using ITS sequencing and RAPD patterning. All three isolates, M34412, M34311 and M81123, showed comparable RAPD patterns with a 935G primer. These were further evaluated for their field performance against H. armigera in a chickpea crop. The percent efficacies with the three Metarhizium isolates were from 65 to 72%, which was comparable to the chemical insecticide, endosulfan (74%).     

Method for determining the best hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) number for a compatible non-ionic surfactant in formulation development for aerial conidia of Metarhizium anisopliae (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae)

A direct dropping method was developed to determine the best hydrophilic-lipophilic balance number of Metarhizium anisopliae conidia at different water content levels during dehydration. Results showed the best HLB number of the tested M. anisopliae conidia was 8; dehydration did not change the best HLB number but significantly increased wetting time.
