In four genotypes of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) BG 362, BG 372, BG 329 and C235 the relationship between somatic embryogenesis of leaf explants and ethylene and methane evolution was studied. In BG 362, which was more embryogenic than other genotypes, a higher ethylene:methane ratio of 5.8:1 at day one after inoculation in the induction medium and a lower ethylene:methane ratio of 2.89:1 in the maturation medium was found. On the contrary, in BG 372 with the least embryogenic potential, a lower ethylene:methane ratio of 1.7:1 in the induction medium and a higher ethylene:methane ratio of 4:1 in the maturation medium was found. Thus, these ratios in induction and maturation stages seems to be markers for embryogenesis in leaf explants of chickpea. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

The biochemical methane potential (BMP) test for thickened sludge was evaluated at three different inoculum/substrate (I:S) ratios. The cumulative methane yield was 51.4 mL CH4/g VSadded at an I:S ratio of 1:1, 76.3 mL CH4/g VSadded at an I:S ratio of 1:3, and 21.9 mL CH4/g VSadded at an I:S ratio of 1:8. The greatest ultimate methane yield and methane production rate constant were achieved at an I:S ratio of 1:3, whereas the least was obtained at an I:S ratio of 1:8. The maximum methane production rate constant was 0.38/day and the minimum methane production rate constant was 0.0016/day. For the case of a lower I:S ratio, the biomass activity may be affected due to the low substrate concentration. On the other hand, for the case of higher I:S ratios, anaerobic digestion of thickened sludge was inhibited by higher concentrations of volatile fatty acids and lower pH.  相似文献

Anaerobic co-digestion of concentrated pig manure (PM) with grass silage (GS) at five different PM to GS volatile solid (VS) ratios of 1:0, 3:1, 1:1, 1:3 and 0:1 was evaluated by examining operation stability and methane (CH4) production potentials. The highest specific CH4 yields were 304.2 and 302.8 ml CH4/g VS at PM to GS ratios of 3:1 and 1:1, respectively. The digestion systems failed at the ratio of 0:1. The lag phase lasted 29.5, 28.1, 24.6 and 21.3 days at the ratios of 1:0, 3:1, 1:1 and 1:3, respectively. The daily methane yield was linearly correlated with the acetic acid concentration, indicating methane production was probably associated with acetoclastic methanogenesis. The hydrolysis constant linearly decreased with increasing the fraction of GS in the feedstock. This study recommends applying the PM to GS ratio of 1:1 in practice due to a high specific methane yield and a short lag phase.  相似文献

Methanotrophic communities were studied in several periodically water-saturated gleyic soils. When sampled, each soil had an oxic upper layer and consumed methane from the atmosphere (at 1.75 ppmv). In most gleyic soils the K(m(app)) values for methane were between 70 and 800 ppmv. These are higher than most values observed in dry upland soils, but lower than those measured in wetlands. Based on cultivation-independent retrieval of the pmoA-gene and quantification of partial pmoA gene sequences, type II (Alphaproteobacteria) methanotrophs of the genus Methylocystis spp. were abundant (> 10(7) pmoA target molecules per gram of dry soil). Type I (Gammaproteobacteria) methanotrophs related to the genera Methylobacter and Methylocaldum/Methylococcus were detected in some soils. Six pmoA sequence types not closely related to sequences from cultivated methanotrophs were detected as well, indicating that diverse uncultivated methanotrophs were present. Three Gleysols were incubated under different mixing ratios of (13)C-labelled methane to examine (13)C incorporation into phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs). Phospholipid fatty acids typical of type II methanotrophs, 16:0 and 18:1omega7c, were labelled with (13)C in all soils after incubation under an atmosphere containing 30 ppmv of methane. Incubation under 500 ppmv of methane resulted in labelling of additional PLFAs besides 16:0 and 18:1omega7c, suggesting that the composition of the active methanotrophic community changed in response to increased methane supply. In two soils, 16:1 PLFAs typical of type I methanotrophs were strongly labelled after incubation under the high methane mixing ratio only. Type II methanotrophs are most likely responsible for atmospheric methane uptake in these soils, while type I methanotrophs become active when methane is produced in the soil.  相似文献

Microorganisms that oxidize atmospheric methane in soils were characterized by radioactive labelling with (14)CH(4) followed by analysis of radiolabelled phospholipid ester-linked fatty acids ((14)C-PLFAs). The radioactive fingerprinting technique was used to compare active methanotrophs in soil samples from Greenland, Denmark, the United States, and Brazil. The (14)C-PLFA fingerprints indicated that closely related methanotrophic bacteria were responsible for the oxidation of atmospheric methane in the soils. Significant amounts of labelled PLFAs produced by the unknown soil methanotrophs coeluted with a group of fatty acids that included i17:0, a17:0, and 17:1omega8c (up to 9.0% of the total (14)C-PLFAs). These PLFAs are not known to be significant constituents of methanotrophic bacteria. The major PLFAs of the soil methanotrophs (73.5 to 89.0% of the total PLFAs) coeluted with 18:1 and 18:0 fatty acids (e.g., 18:1omega9, 18:1omega7, and 18:0). The (14)C-PLFAs fingerprints of the soil methanotrophs that oxidized atmospheric methane did not change after long-term methane enrichment at 170 ppm CH(4). The (14)C-PLFA fingerprints of the soil methanotrophs were different from the PLFA profiles of type I and type II methanotrophic bacteria described previously. Some similarity at the PLFA level was observed between the unknown soil methanotrophs and the PLFA phenotype of the type II methanotrophs. Methanotrophs in Arctic, temperate, and tropical regions assimilated between 20 and 54% of the atmospheric methane that was metabolized. The lowest relative assimilation (percent) was observed for methanotrophs in agricultural soil, whereas the highest assimilation was observed for methanotrophs in rain forest soil. The results suggest that methanotrophs with relatively high carbon conversion efficiencies and very similar PLFA compositions dominate atmospheric methane metabolism in different soils. The characteristics of the methane metabolism and the (14)C-PLFA fingerprints excluded any significant role of autotrophic ammonia oxidizers in the metabolism of atmospheric methane.  相似文献

Aerobic stopped-flow experiments have confirmed that component C is the methane monooxygenase component responsible for interaction with NADH. Reduction of component C by NADH is not the rate-limiting step for component C in the methane monooxygenase reaction. Removal and reconstitution of the redox centres of component C suggest a correlation between the presence of the FAD and Fe2S2 redox centres and NADH: acceptor reductase activity and methane monooxygenase activity respectively, consistent with the order of electron flow: NADH----FAD----Fe2S2----component A. This order suggests that component C functions as a 2e-1/1e-1 transformase, splitting electron pairs from NADH for transfer to component A via the one-electron-carrying Fe2S2 centre. Electron transfer has been demonstrated between the reductase component, component C and the oxygenase component, component A, of the methane monooxygenase complex from Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath) by three separate methods. This intermolecular electron transfer step is not rate-determining for the methane monooxygenase reaction. Intermolecular electron transfer was independent of component B, the third component of the methane monooxygenase. Component B is required to switch the oxidase activity of component A to methane mono-oxygenase activity, suggesting that the role of component B is to couple substrate oxidation to electron transfer, via the methane monooxygenase components.  相似文献

扎龙芦苇湿地生长季的甲烷排放通量   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
为研究高寒地区天然淡水芦苇湿地的甲烷排放特征,采用静态箱-气相色谱法,测定了扎龙不同水位芦苇湿地生长季的甲烷排放通量.结果表明:观测期内,扎龙芦苇湿地甲烷排放通量平均为7.67 mg·m-2·h-1(-21.18~46.15 mg·m-2·h-1),其中深水区(平均水深100 cm)和浅水区(平均水深25 cm)的平均甲烷排放通量分别为5.81和9.52 mg·m-2·h-1,排放峰值分别出现在8月和7月,最低值均出现在10月.深水区夏季(6-7月)的甲烷排放通量显著低于浅水区,而春(5月)、秋(8-10月)季节显著高于浅水区.生长季甲烷排放通量的变化为夏季>秋季>春季;昼夜排放量为12:00和14:00最高,0:00最低.温度和水位是高寒地区淡水芦苇湿地甲烷排放通量变化的主要影响因子.  相似文献

Membrane fraction of Methylococcus capsulatus (strain M) were treated with [14C]acetylene, an affinity label binding to the active center of membrane-bound methane monooxygenase (MMO). High-purity particulate form of methane hydroxylase (pMH) was obtained by ion exchange and hydrophobic chromatography. According to SDS-PAGE data, the enzyme contained three polypeptides with molecular weights of 47 (α), 27 (β), and 25 (γ) kDa in the ratio 1: 1: 1. The radiolabel was contained in the β-subunit of pMH. The protein contained 1 or 2 atoms of nonheme iron and 2–4 atoms of copper per a minimum molecular weight of 99 kDa. This protein did not oxidize methane or propylene in the presence of NADH but was able to oxidize low quantities of methane in the presence of duroquinol. It was established that methanol dehydrogenase (MD) and NADH oxidoreductase (NADH-OR) are peripheral membrane proteins. Possible causes of low activity of high-purity methane hydroxylase are discussed.  相似文献

With increasing concerns of microalgal-biodiesel, algal residues after lipid extraction are raising great attention for energy production. A batch test of 15 days under mesophilic condition was conducted to evaluate the effects of inoculum to substrate ratios (ISRs) on the methane production by anaerobic digestion of Chlorella sp. residue. The stability and progress of the reaction from algal residue to methane were monitored by measuring the pH, volatile fatty acids (VFAs), total ammoniacal nitrogen (TAN), methane volume on a daily basis. The results indicated that the values obtained were 26.6, 191.6, 195.6 and 210.6 ml CH4/g volatile solid (VS) for ISRs of 1:2, 1:1, 2:1 and 3:1. The methane production was significantly decreased as the ISR was lower than 1:1, which was resulting from the poor methanogenesis inhibited by NH4 +-N. It would be of great importance that determination of ISRs might provide useful information on how to initialize a batch digester with algal residue as material.  相似文献

The reaction vessel has been designed to measure methane monooxygenase activity. An elastic membrane has been built into one of the walls of the vessel to take liquid samples, avoiding formation of the gaseous phase in the reaction volume. The methane content in the samples is measured in a gas-liquid chromatograph with a flame ionization detector in two ways: 1. by direct measurement of methane in the liquid sample, and 2. by measurement of methane in the gaseous phase after methane diffusion from the liquid sample into the gaseous space of another vessel. The method is simple, sensitive (with a lower limit of 0.1 nMole CH4), and well reproducible. This method permits measurement of the oxidation kinetics of methane and other gaseous hydrocarbons both by intact cells and cell-free preparations of methane oxidizing bacteria.  相似文献

Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) and sulphate reduction were examined in sediment samples from a marine gas hydrate area (Hydrate Ridge, NE Pacific). The sediment contained high numbers of microbial consortia consisting of organisms that affiliate with methanogenic archaea and with sulphate-reducing bacteria. Sediment samples incubated under strictly anoxic conditions in defined mineral medium (salinity as in seawater) produced sulphide from sulphate if methane was added as the sole organic substrate. No sulphide production occurred in control experiments without methane. Methane-dependent sulphide production was fastest between 4 degree C and 16 degree C, the average rate with 0.1 MPa (approximately 1 atm) methane being 2.5 micro mol sulphide day(-1) and (g dry mass sediment)(-1). An increase of the methane pressure to 1.1 MPa (approximately 11 atm) resulted in a four to fivefold increase of the sulphide production rate. Quantitative measurements using a special anoxic incubation device without gas phase revealed continuous consumption of dissolved methane (from initially 3.2 to 0.7 mM) with simultaneous production of sulphide at a molar ratio of nearly 1:1. To test the response of the indigenous community to possible intermediates of AOM, molecular hydrogen, formate, acetate or methanol were added in the absence of methane; however, sulphide production from sulphate with any of these compounds was much slower than with methane. In the presence of methane, such additions neither stimulated nor inhibited sulphate reduction. Hence, the experiments did not provide evidence for one of these compounds acting as a free extracellular intermediate (intercellular shuttle) during AOM by the presently investigated consortia.  相似文献

The relative importance of oxygen for root-associated methanotrophy was examined by using sediment-free, intact freshwater marsh plants (Pontederia cordata and Sparganium eurycarpum) incubated in split chambers. The root medium contained approximately 100 (mu)M methane. Methane oxidation was calculated from the difference between methane loss from chambers in the presence and absence of 1 mM 1-allyl-2-thiourea, a methanotrophic inhibitor. When the root medium was oxic, methane oxidation accounted for 88 and 63% of the total methane depletion for S. eurycarpum and P. cordata, respectively; the remainder represented diffusional loss to the atmosphere via roots, stems, and leaves. Under suboxic conditions, methane oxidation was not detectable for S. eurycarpum but accounted for 68% of total methane depletion for P. cordata. The introduction of a biological oxygen sink, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, resulted in complete loss of methane oxidation in S. eurycarpum chambers under oxic conditions, while methane consumption continued (51.6% of total methane depletion) in P. cordata chambers. The differences between plant species were consistent with their relative ability to oxygenate their rhizospheres: during a suboxic incubation, dissolved oxygen decreased by 19% in S. eurycarpum chambers but increased by 232% for P. cordata. An in situ comparison also revealed greater methanotrophic activity for P. cordata than S. eurycarpum.  相似文献

The effect of temperature on production of ammonia during dry anaerobic fermentation of chicken manure (CM), inoculated with thermophilic methanogenic sludge, was investigated in a batch condition for 8 days. Incubation temperature did not have a significant effect on the production of ammonia. Almost complete inhibition of production of methane occurred at 55 and 65°C while quite low yields of 8.45 and 6.34 ml g−1 VS (volatile solids) were observed at 35 and 45°C due to a higher accumulation of ammonia. In order to improve the production of methane during dry anaerobic digestion of CM, stripping of ammonia was performed firstly on the CM previously fermented at 65°C for 8 days: the stripping for 1 day at 85°C and pH 10 removed 85.5% of ammonia. The first-batch fermentation of methane for 75 days was conducted next, using the ammonia-stripped CM inoculated with methanogenic sludge at different ratios, (CM: thermophilic sludge) of 1:2, 1:1, and 2:1 on volume per volume basis at both 35 and 55°C. Production of methane improved and was higher than that of the control (without stripping of ammonia) but the yield of 20.4 ml g−1 VS was still low, so second stripping of ammonia was conducted, which resulted in 74.7% removal of ammonia. A great improvement in the production of methane of 103.5 ml g−1 VS was achieved during the second batch for 55 days.  相似文献

若尔盖高原湿地甲烷排放的时空异质性   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
集中于北美落基山高山湿地甲烷排放的零星报道远不能解析全球高山湿地甲烷源强. 因此,世界范围内其他区域高山湿地甲烷排放的研究对于合理估计全球高山湿地甲烷源强,意义重大.采用静态箱-气相色谱法,基于3种典型湿地类型的甲烷排放数据,认为若尔盖高原湿地生长季甲烷的平均排放量为4.69 mg CH4 m-2 h-1.同时根据2a数据,初步分析了甲烷通量及其对环境因素和生物因素的响应特征,结果表明:(1)甲烷排放昼夜变化具有双峰模式 (主峰出现在15:00,次峰出现在06:00),可由土壤温度以及植物气孔开启来解释.(2)若尔盖湿地甲烷排放季节动态较为典型,即在7月份或8月份出现排放高峰,冬季甲烷排放较少.生长季,对3类群落类型,表面温度与甲烷排放显著相关 (r2=0.55,P<0.05,n=30),地表水位和植物群落高度与甲烷排放相关性更为显著 (r2=0.32,0.61,P<0.01,n=30).分析认为该季节节律是由温度以及植物生长状况直接影响的,而水位则是使该节律发生波动的原因(高原气候).(3)群落尺度下,物候学上相当重要的两个时期,甲烷排放通量均有较高的空间变异 (植物生长高峰变异系数为38%,积雪融化高峰为61%).通过逐步回归线性分析,发现植物生长高峰期,地表水位和群落高度是影响甲烷排放空间差异的主要因素 (r2= 0.43,0.59,P<0.01,n=30).(4)景观尺度下,生长季,景观尺度下甲烷排放有较大的空间变异,湖滨湿地甲烷平排放量最高为11.95 mg CH4 m-2h-1,其次为宽谷湿地,其排放量为2 12 mg CH4 m-2h-1,河岸湿地表现为甲烷吸收,其吸收量为0.007 mg CH4 m-2h-1.地表水位、植物地上生物量以及植物高度能够很好地解释甲烷排放的景观差异.  相似文献

Soil from the zone of maximal methanotrophic activity (approximately 5-8 cm depth) in a mixed coniferous-hardwood forest consumed atmospheric methane over a wide pH range (3.5-7.5) with a broad optimum between 4.8 and 6.0. Methane uptake at native soil pH values (4.4-4.8) was only slightly less rapid than rates at optimal pH values. Addition of mineral acids to intact soil cores in pulsed applications decreased atmospheric methane consumption. The extent of inhibition varied with the type, concentration and volume of acid added: nitric acid was more inhibitory than sulfuric acid at an equivalent soil pH, and methane uptake decreased with increasing volumes and concentrations of added acid. Although ammonium chloride at 1 μmol g fresh weight (gfw) soil(-1) inhibited methane uptake, the extent of inhibition did not vary significantly with decreasing soil pH below values of 4.4.  相似文献

稻田土壤有机碳是甲烷排放的关键底物之一,不同研究者由于采取的有机碳研究方法不同而得出稻田甲烷排放与土壤有机碳关系的结论不一.为明确影响稻田甲烷排放的土壤有机碳组分,设计了稻田施用不同外源有机碳(稻草还田、鸡粪和猪粪)的田间试验,对稻田甲烷排放和土壤有机碳组分的动态变化及其关联性进行监测和分析.结果表明,猪粪处理的甲烷排放与化肥处理无显著差异,而鸡粪和稻草2个处理的甲烷排放分别比化肥增加1.67倍(P<0.05),2.69倍(P<0.05);甲烷排放量与土壤易氧化有机碳含量显示相同顺序:稻草>鸡粪>猪粪>化肥;通径分析表明,土壤易氧化有机碳组分1(被33 mmol/L KMnO4氧化的有机碳)与甲烷排放直接相关,其他有机碳组分仅通过组分1间接作用于水稻生育后期甲烷排放,且排放量较低.由此推断,易氧化有机碳组分1是甲烷排放的主要底物,通过有效措施降低肥源中易氧化态有机碳组分1是减排甲烷的关键技术之一.  相似文献

Changes in natural isotopic composition may be used to reveal metabolic pathways of substrate transformation by microbial communities (Vavilin in Ecol Model 240:84–92, 2012b). Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) by sulfate has been described using a mathematical model based on chemical kinetics, microbial dynamics and equations for 13C isotope accumulation in products as well as their redistribution between substrate and products. Experimental data for two batch cultures that originated from microbial mats covering methane seep chimneys in the Black Sea, previously obtained by Seifert et al. (Org Geochem 37:1411–1419, 2006) and Holler et al. (Env Microbiol Reports 1(5):370–376, 2009), were used to model AOM. During long-time incubation, changes of isotope signatures in CH4 showed that in the Seifert et al. batch tests (low methane concentration), in contrast to the Holler et al. batch tests (high methane concentration), methane production occurred along with methane oxidation. In accordance with the model, apparent zero and first-order kinetics of methane oxidation were valid for the Holler et al. and Seifert et al. batch tests, respectively. The observed change of $ \delta {}^{13}{\text{CH}}_{4} $ was explained by microbial kinetics reflecting that the rate is lower for heavy substrate microbial utilization when compared to light substrate microbial utilization. The model showed that small amounts of methanogenesis will change the carbon isotopic composition of methane because biogenic methane has a distinct isotopic composition and due to the large difference between the maximum specific rates of methane oxidation and production. The estimated biomass doubling time of methane-oxidizers for high and low methane concentration was 408/126 days and 4640/1160 days, respectively, depending on the value of the half-saturation constant K S (5 and 20 mM).  相似文献

The existing knowledge of anaerobic digestion of cellulose-containing wastes and methane formation is reviewed. Mutual relationships between the individual phases of this complex process and the mechanism of methane biosynthesis are discussed in three sections: (1) Non-methanogenic phase and digestion of cellulose; (2) methanogenic phase and methanogenesis; (3) mixed cultures and their advantages.  相似文献

The study assessed the effects of different roughage to concentrate ratios on enteric methane production, rumen fermentation and microbial counts. These ratios were 80:20, 50:50, and 20:80 for diets 1, 2, and 3, respectively. No significant differences were observed in total gas production among diets; however, methane emissions increased (P?<?0.05) with increased roughage in diet. The pH was greater (P?<?0.05) in diet 1 compared to diets 2 and 3 (6.38 vs 6.17 and 6.07). In vitro dry matter digestibility increased with decreased roughage ratios (47.67, 61.67, 67.33 % for diets 1, 2 and 3, respectively). Similarly, total volatile fatty acids (mM/100 mL) also increased with decreased roughage ratios [diet 1 (5.38); diet 2 (6.30); diet 3 (7.37)]. Methanogen counts, total bacterial counts and protozoal counts were lower (P?<?0.05) in diet 3 compared to diet 1 and 2. However, total fungal counts were higher in diet 1 compared to diet 2 and 3. The results indicate that methane emission, enteric fermentation patterns, and change in methanogens population appear only with higher level of roughage. These findings are important for reducing methane without any impact on rumen performance.  相似文献
