光照和营养盐磷对微型及微微型浮游植物生长的影响

2004年9月,在长江口及邻近水域通过在培养水体中添加不同量的磷酸盐和改变光照强度进行现场受控培养实验,对光照和营养盐磷耦合培养作用下浮游植物生长及对磷营养盐的吸收变化进行了研究,结果表明：高光照条件下（100﹪自然光照）,磷酸盐浓度在高磷水平（0.60μmol/L）培养水体中下降速率明显比中磷（0.41μmol/L）、低磷水平（0.25μmol/L）快,浮游植物生长存在着显著的磷限制性,微型浮游植物（nanophytoplankton,简称Nano,2～20μm）在高磷水平下的生长明显得到促进,聚球藻（Synechococcus sp.,简称Syn,＜2μm）密度在培养初期有小幅度增加,而微微型真核浮游植物（picoeukaryote,简称Euk,＜2μm）在低磷水平下生长较快;在低光照条件下（50﹪自然光照）,磷酸盐浓度在高磷水平培养水体中的下降是受到抑制的,Nano和Syn也都更宜在中磷水平培养水体中生长,Euk在高磷水平下的生长也是受到抑制的,且在中磷水平培养水体中,三类浮游植物的生长周期都得到延长;无光照暗环境培养条件下磷酸盐浓度在不同磷水平下始终保持着增加趋势,三类浮游植物也都无法生长,磷酸盐浓度随培养时间呈线性增加趋势,浮游植物细胞密度则呈指数下降趋势,且磷酸盐的添加对其本身的释放速率和浮游植物衰减速率都没有影响.     

磷酸盐对盐藻生长与物质积累的调控作用

实验研究了不同浓度的磷酸盐对盐藻细胞生长与物质积累的调控作用。结果表明,培养液中供给磷过多或过少都不利于盐藻细胞的生长与物质积累。以培养基中30mg/L的磷浓度对盐藻细胞生长、蛋白质合成与β-胡萝卜素积累的促进作用最大。培养液中磷浓度提高会使盐藻细胞生长与物质积累受到抑制。在培养液中的磷浓度为0mg/L时,单个盐藻细胞中的蛋白质含量最高。     

Technical note phytoremediation of triazophos by Canna indica Linn. in a hydroponic system

The phytoremediation of triazophos (O, O-diethyl-O-(1-phenyl-1, 2, 4-triazole-3-base) sulfur phosphate, TAP) by Canna indica Linn. in a hydroponic system was studied. After 21 d of exposure, the removal kinetic constant (K) of TAP was 0.0229-0.0339 d(-1) and the removal percentage of TAP was 41-55% in the plant system and the K and removal percentage of TAP were about 0.002 d(-1) and 1%, respectively, in darkness and disinfected control. However, the K and removal percentage of TAP were 0.006 d(-1) and approximately 11%, respectively, in the treatment with eluate from the media of constructed wetland. The contribution of plant to the remediation of TAP was 74% and C. indica played the most important role in the hydroponic system. Under the stress of TAP and without inorganic phosphorus nutrient, the activity of phosphatase in the plant system increased and phytodegradation was observed. The production and release of phosphatase is seen as the key mechanism for C. indica to degrade TAP. C. indica, which showed the potential of phytoremediation of TAP, and is commonly used in constructed wetland, so the technique of phytoremediation of TAP from contaminated water can be developed with the combination of constructed wetland.

土壤盐渍化对尿素与磷酸脲氨挥发的影响

氨挥发是肥料氮素损失的重要途径之一,肥料类型、土壤类型、肥料用量以及土壤全盐量均影响氨挥发损失率及挥发特征。本文采用通气法测定了磷酸脲和尿素两种肥料六个施肥量处理分别施入六个不同盐渍化程度（1.7、9.9、16.4、23.2、29.1、37.9 g/kg）的土壤后氨挥发累积状况和动力学特性,以及土壤氨挥发累积量与土壤电导值之间的相关性。结果表明：（1）在土壤总盐介于1.66 -37.9 g/kg的范围内,随着土壤含盐量增加,尿素与磷酸脲处理的氨挥发累积量显著增加;土壤含盐量对氨挥发速率有显著的促进作用。（2）各处理二次线性函数拟合的二项式系数a均为负值,表明：在不同盐渍化条件下肥料的挥发速率是随着时间增长而降低的;一次线性函数和Elovich 方程的斜率a随土壤含盐量增加而增大,表明：土壤盐渍化将加剧土壤的氨挥发速率。（3）土壤氨挥发累积量与电导值拟合结果符合logistic方程（︱R︱分别为0.9732,0.9815,0.965,0.9182,0.9817,0.9971︱R︱>r0.01=0.9172, n=6）,氨挥发累积量随土壤电导值呈“S”型增长。

Early Steps in Isoprenoid Biosynthesis: Multilevel Regulation of the Supply of Common Precursors in Plant Cells

Isoprenoids are produced in all organisms but are especially abundant and diverse in plants. Two separate pathways operate in plant cells to synthesize prenyl diphosphate precursors common to all isoprenoids. Cytosolic and mitochondrial precursors are produced by the mevalonic acid (MVA) pathway whereas the recently discovered methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway is located in plastids. However, both pathways may participate in the synthesis of at least some isoprenoids under certain circumstances. Although genes encoding all the enzymes from both pathways have already been cloned, little is known about the regulatory mechanisms that control the supply of isoprenoid precursors. Genetic approaches are providing valuable information on the regulation of both pathways. Thus, recent data from overexpression experiments in transgenic plants show that several enzymes share control over the metabolic flux through the MEP pathway, whereas a single regulatory step has been proposed for the MVA pathway. Identification of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants that are resistant to the inhibition of the MVA and the MEP pathways is a promising approach to uncover mechanisms involved in the crosstalk between pathways. The characterization of some of these mutants impaired in light perception and signaling has recently provided genetic evidence for a role of light as a key factor to modulate the availability of isoprenoid precursors in Arabidopsis seedlings. The picture emerging from recent data supports that a complex regulatory network appears to be at work in plant cells to ensure the supply of isoprenoid precursors when needed.     

Identification and biochemical characterization of Leishmania strains isolated in Peru, Mexico, and Spain

Eight Leishmania promastigotes were isolated from different geographical areas: three (LP1, LP2, and LP3) from the provincial department La Libertad and the fourth (LP4) from the department of Cajamarca (northern Peru); another three (LM1, LM2, and LM3) in the province of Campeche (Mexico); and the last (LS1) from a clinical case of a dog in Madrid (Spain). The isolates were characterized by carbohydrate cell-surface residues using agglutinations with four purified lectins, by isoenzyme analysis using different isoenzymes, by analysis of kinetoplast DNA (kDNA) restriction fragment length polymorphism using four different restriction endonucleases and by the final metabolite patterns after in vitro culture. These isolates were compared with four reference strains and typified as: Leishmania (Leishmania) donovani, two strains of L. (L.) infantum, and one species of L. (Viania) peruviana. According to our results and the statistical study, the Peruvian isolates represent three different strains: one would be L. (V.) peruviana, another the strain isolated in Cajamarca (LP4) and the third would include the three strains from the department of La Libertad (LP1, LP2, and LP3), these latter three isolates being phylogenetically closer to the reference strain L. (L.) donovani. Meanwhile, the three isolates from Mexico form a group with close phylogenetic relationships to each other. The isolate from Spain belongs to the species L. (L.) infantum. Thus, a close correlation was drawn between the identity of each strain and its geographical origin.
