有机污染环境植物修复技术

利用物理、化学方法修复有机污染环境,费用昂贵,而且还可能使当地的生态资源难以再利用,对于大面积污染土壤也难以实施。植物修复,利用植物吸收、降解以及根际圈降解的作用方式将有机污染物从环境中彻底去除,具有处理费用相对低廉、对环境扰动少和使资源可持续利用的特点,目前已成为环境科学领域的一大热点和前沿。本文对环境中主要有机污染物的发生机理、近年来植物修复有机污染的研究进展做一综述,并对有机污染植物修复的强化措施进行了展望。     

EVALUATION OF THREE ORNAMENTAL PLANTS FOR PHYTOREMEDIATION OF PB-CONTAMINED SOIL

Characteristics of accumulation and tolerance of lead (Pb) in Quamolit pennata, Antirrhinum majus L. and Celosia cristata pyramidalis were investigated to identify Pb-accumulating plants. In this study, pot culture experiment was conducted to assess whether these plants are Pb-hyperaccumulators or accumulators. The results indicated that the Pb enrichment factor (concentration in plant/soil) and Pb translocation factor (concentration in shoot/root) of these plants were principally <1 in pot culture and concentration gradient experiments. However, the Pb concentration in Celosia cristata pyramidalis shoots was higher than 1000 mg kg^?1, the threshold concentration for a Pb-hyperaccumulator. Shoot biomass of Celosia cristata pyramidalis had no significantly (p < 0.05) variation compared to the control. Based on these results, only Celosia cristata pyramidalis could be identified as a Pb-accumulator.

Sox andZfx genes in giant panda

By using PCR cloning techniques, the DNA sequences of the HMG box regions of sixSox genes (pSox) and the zinc finger domains of twoZfz genes (pZfx) in the giant panda were identified. The giant pandaSox genes fell into two subfamilies,SOX-S1 andSOX-S2. ThepSox andpZfx genes of the giant panda were highly homologous to the corresponding genes in mammals and revealed close substitution rates to those in the primates.
