Sulfate contamination in ecosystems has been a serious problem. Among various technologies, bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) show the advantage of no-pollution and low-cost for removing sulfate. In order to further expound the biological process of sulfate removal in BESs, 454 pyrosequencing was applied to analyze the bacterial communities under different pH conditions. The bacterial community profiles were analyzed from three aspects: (a) the α-diversity and β-diversity of bacterial communities, (b) the distribution of bacterial phylotypes, and (c) the characterizations of dominant operational taxonomic units (OTUs). We demonstrated that the indexes of phylotype richness and phylogenetic diversity were positively correlated across the pH gradient in the BESs. Among the dominant OTUs, the OTUs which were highly similar to Desulfatirhabdium butyrativorans, Desulfovibrio marrakechensis and Desulfomicrobium sp. might participate in removing sulfate. Standing on genus level, Desulfomicrobium and Sulfuricurvum play conducing and adverse roles for sulfate removal in alkaline condition, respectively. Desulfovibrio contributed to removing sulfate in the neutral and acidic conditions, while Thiomonas mainly weakened the performance of sulfate removal in neutral pH condition. These results further clarified how pH condition directly affected the bacterial communities, which consequently affected the performance of sulfate pollutant treatment using BESs. 相似文献

In photobioreactors and natural systems, microalgae are subjected to rapidly changing light intensities (LI) due to light attenuation and mixing. A controlled way to study the effect of rapidly changing LI is to subject cultures to flashing light. In this study, series of flashing-light experiments were conducted using Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 with constant overall average LI of approximately 84 μmol·m−2·s−1 and relative times in the light and dark varied. The results were also compared with simulated results using a mathematical model including an absorbed pool of light energy, photoacclimation, and photoinhibition. With equal time in light and dark, the specific growth rate (μ) systematically decreased with increasing light duration, and µ decreased further when the ratio of light to dark was decreased. The model captured both trends with the mechanistic explanation that when the light duration was very short the changes in the pool of absorbed LI were smoothed out across the light and dark periods, whereas longer durations caused the biomass to experience discrete light and dark conditions that lead to reduced light absorption, more energy loss to nonphotochemical quenching, and more photodamage. These growth effects were accentuated as the ratio of light to dark decreased. 相似文献

The in vivo activity of the alternative pathway (ν(alt)) has been studied using the oxygen isotope fractionation method in leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana modified for the expression of the AtAOX1a gene by anti-sense (AS-12) or overexpression (XX-2). Under non-stressful conditions, ν(alt) was similar in all plant lines regardless of its different alternative pathway capacities (V(alt)). Total leaf respiration (V(t)) and V(alt) were directly related to growth light conditions while electron partitioning between the cytochrome pathway (CP) and alternative pathway (AP) was unchanged by light levels. Interestingly, the AP functioned at full capacity in anti-sense plants under both growth light conditions. The role of the AP in response to a high light stress induced by short-term high light treatment (HLT) was also studied. In wild type and XX-2, both CP and AP rates increased proportionally after HLT while in AS-12, where the AP was unable to increase its rate, the CP accommodated all the increase in respiration. The results obtained under high light stress suggest that flexibility in the response of the mitochondrial electron transport chain is involved in sustaining photosynthetic rates in response to this stress while the saturated AP in AS-12 plants may contribute to the observed increase in photoinhibition. 相似文献

A comparison of primary production measurements using two laboratory systems with differences in light quality 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Primary production measurements were carried out simultaneously, using two laboratory systems with different light conditions: (1) a'classical' incubator and (2) a Laboratory Scale Enclosure. The model used for calculating primary production (STEELE, 1965) does not correct for spectral changes caused by high phytoplankton biomass. In the incubator, light of almost all wavelengths decreased more or less according to the attenuation of total PhAR in water. In the LSE, high absorption was found of the blue light and some of the red light, which was due to the high sestonic concentration. The Steele function provided a good fit for both sets of data. The depth integrated gross production values derived from the simultaneous measurements were not significantly different. 相似文献

The pH control was important for curdlan production with Agrobacterium sp. ATCC31750. Specific cell growth rate was the highest at pH 7 and the specific curdlan production rate was at pH 5.5. The pH profiles maximizing curdlan production was changed from pH 7 optimal for cell growth to pH 5.5 optimal for curdlan production after ammonium consumption. The feedback inferential control methods, with easily measurable variables such as NaOH addition for pH control and dissolved oxygen (DO), were also applied. The pH was successfully controlled to follow optimal profiles and the maximal production of curdlan (60 g l–1 in 120 h) was achieved with feedback optimal control. 相似文献

In nature roots grow in the dark and away from light (negative phototropism). However, most current research in root biology has been carried out with the root system grown in the presence of light. Here, we have engineered a device, called Dark‐Root (D‐Root), to grow plants in vitro with the aerial part exposed to the normal light/dark photoperiod while the roots are in the dark or exposed to specific wavelengths or light intensities. D‐Root provides an efficient system for cultivating a large number of seedlings and easily characterizing root architecture in the dark. At the morphological level, root illumination shortens root length and promotes early emergence of lateral roots, therefore inducing expansion of the root system. Surprisingly, root illumination also affects shoot development, including flowering time. Our analyses also show that root illumination alters the proper response to hormones or abiotic stress (e.g. salt or osmotic stress) and nutrient starvation, enhancing inhibition of root growth. In conclusion, D‐Root provides a growing system closer to the natural one for assaying Arabidopsis plants, and therefore its use will contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in root development, hormonal signaling and stress responses. 相似文献

Arthrospira platensis was cultivated in tubular photobioreactor in order to evaluate growth and biomass production at variable photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD = 60, 120, and 240 μmol photons m(-2)s(-1)) and employing three different systems for cell circulation, specifically an airlift, a motor-driven pumping and a pressurized system. The influence of these two independents variables on the maximum cell concentration (X(m)), cell productivity (P(x)), nitrogen-to-cell conversion factor (Y(X/N) ), photosynthetic efficiency (PE), and biomass composition (total lipids and proteins), taken as responses, was evaluated by analysis of variance. The statistical analysis revealed that the best combination of responses' mean values (X(m) = 4,055 mg L(-1), P(x) = 406 mg L(-1)day(-1), Y(X/N) = 5.07 mg mg(-1), total lipids = 8.94%, total proteins = 30.3%, PE = 2.04%) was obtained at PPFD = 120 μmol photons m(-2)s(-1); therefore, this light intensity should be considered as the most well-suited for A. platensis cultivation in this photobioreactor configuration. The airlift system did not exert any significant positive statistical influence on the responses, which suggests that this traditional cell circulation system could successfully be substituted by the others tested in this work. 相似文献

Oxygen evolution from aScenedesmus obliquus dominated outdoor culture was followed in a small volume chamber, irradiated either by continuous white light or under light/dark frequencies between 0.05 to 5000 Hz, using arrays of high intensity red light emitting diodes (LED's). By placing neutral density filters in the path of the white light, light saturation curves of the oxygen evolution (P/I curves) were measured using diluted aliquots of algal cultures. The results clearly showed that photosynthetic rates increased exponentially with increasing light/dark frequencies, that a longer dark period in relation to the light period does not necessarily lead to higher photosynthetic rates (efficiencies), and that algae do not acclimate to a specific light/dark frequency. One of the most important factors that influenced photosynthetic rates, either under continuous illumination or intermittent, was whether the algae were dark or light acclimated. Low light/dark frequencies were perceived by the algae as low light conditions, whilst the opposite was true for high frequencies. The light utilisation efficiency in a fluctuating light/dark environment depended on the acclimated state of the algae, the specific frequency of the fluctuations and the duration of the exposure. Since the frequencies determined the perceived quantities of light, dark reactions played an important role in determining the average photosynthetic efficiencies. These results have important implications for algal biotechnology. 相似文献

Cyanobacteria are a model photoautotroph and a chassis for the sustainable production of fuels and chemicals. Knowledge of photoautotrophic metabolism in the natural environment of day/night cycles is lacking, yet has implications for improved yield from plants, algae and cyanobacteria. Here, a thorough approach to characterizing diverse metabolites—including carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, pigments, cofactors, nucleic acids and polysaccharides—in the model cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (S. 6803) under sinusoidal diurnal light:dark cycles was developed and applied. A custom photobioreactor and multi‐platform mass spectrometry workflow enabled metabolite profiling every 30–120 min across a 24‐h diurnal sinusoidal LD (‘sinLD’) cycle peaking at 1600 μmol photons m?2 sec?1. We report widespread oscillations across the sinLD cycle with 90%, 94% and 40% of the identified polar/semi‐polar, non‐polar and polymeric metabolites displaying statistically significant oscillations, respectively. Microbial growth displayed distinct lag, biomass accumulation and cell division phases of growth. During the lag phase, amino acids and nucleic acids accumulated to high levels per cell followed by decreased levels during the biomass accumulation phase, presumably due to protein and DNA synthesis. Insoluble carbohydrates displayed sharp oscillations per cell at the day‐to‐night transition. Potential bottlenecks in central carbon metabolism are highlighted. Together, this report provides a comprehensive view of photosynthetic metabolite behavior with high temporal resolution, offering insight into the impact of growth synchronization to light cycles via circadian rhythms. Incorporation into computational modeling and metabolic engineering efforts promises to improve industrially relevant strain design. 相似文献

1. Although laboratory studies of the behaviour of aquatic macroinvertebrates are common, there has been little critical evaluation of the importance of test conditions to them. We used a common Australian leptophlebiid mayfly, Nousia sp., to investigate responses to light, wavelength of light, presence or absence of cover and still or flowing water.
2. Nousia sp. showed substantial qualitative differences in behaviour, as measured by movement, when there was no refuge (in the form of a crevice beneath a tile) present in the experimental arena.
3. We found no evidence of diel periodicity in activity in Nousia sp.
4. Nousia sp. did not respond to infra-red, red or green light at a flux density of 18–19 μmol m–2 s–1 .
5. Nymphs were three times more likely to remain stationary in flowing water (mean velocity 0.10 m s–1 ) than in still water.
6. We conclude that generalized assumptions about test conditions for experiments designed to quantify laboratory behaviour in benthic macroinvertebrates are unjustified and that evaluation of the individual requirements of test species should be conducted routinely. 相似文献

Carbon nanodots can function as photosensitizers that have the ability to generate reactive oxygen species such as singlet oxygen, hydroxy (OH) radicals, and superoxide ions. However, most of these can only be generated upon ultraviolet light excitation. Additionally, the mechanism of reactive oxygen species generation by carbon nanodots remains unclear. The development of carbon nanodots that can photosensitize under visible light irradiation is desirable for applications such as photodynamic therapy and pollutant decomposition under visible light. Here, we report novel carbon nanodot-based photosensitizers that generate reactive oxygen species under visible light; they were synthesized using a solvothermal method with two solvents (formamide and water) and amidol as the carbon source. Carbon nanodots from the solvothermal synthesis in formamide showed blue fluorescence, while those obtained in water showed green fluorescence. The photo-excited blue-fluorescent carbon nanodots produced OH radicals, superoxide ions, and singlet oxygen, and therefore could function as both type I and type II photosensitizers. In addition, photo-excited green-fluorescent carbon nanodots generated only singlet oxygen, therefore functioning as type II photosensitizers. It is proposed that the two photosensitizers have different origins of reactive oxygen species generation: the enrichment of graphitic N for blue-fluorescent carbon nanodots and molecular fluorophores for green-fluorescent carbon nanodots. 相似文献
