光衰减及其相关环境因子对沉水植物生长影响研究进展

光衰减对沉水植物的生长具有至关重要的影响。系统归纳总结了光衰减及其相关环境因子对沉水植物生长的影响,指出:光因子是沉水植物生长的第一环境要素,水体中的有色可溶性有机质、浮游植物叶片细胞中的叶绿素和悬浮颗粒物以及水体本身,对光穿透水体时光强的衰减有着直接的影响,是影响沉水植物最重要的光衰减水质参数。其他环境因子如营养盐、沉积物和流水动力学等因素,则会直接或间接影响光衰减水质参数,进而影响水体透明度和浑浊度,影响沉水植物的光合作用,是影响沉水植物光衰减的间接环境因子。提出了研究中重点关注的几个问题。

Potential for Aerobic and Anaerobic Biodegradation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Boreal Subsurface

We studied the role of aerobic and anaerobic petroleum hydrocarbon degradation at a boreal, light-weight fuel and lubrication oil contaminated site undergoing natural attenuation. At the site, anoxic conditions prevailed with high concentrations of CH4 (up to 25% v/v) and CO2 (up to 18% v/v) in the soil gas throughout the year. Subsurface samples were obtained mainly from the anoxic parts of the site and they represented both the unsaturated and saturated zone. The samples were incubated in microcosms at near in situ conditions (i.e. in situ temperature 8 degrees C, aerobic and anaerobic conditions, no nutrient amendments) resulting in the removal of mineral oil (as determined by gas chromatography) aerobically as well as anaerobically. In the aerobic microcosms on average 31% and 27% of the initial mineral oil was removed during a 3- and 4-month incubation, respectively. In the anaerobic microcosms, on average 44% and 15% of the initial mineral oil was removed during a 12- and 10-month anaerobic incubation, respectively, and e.g. n-alkanes from C11 to C15 were removed. A methane production rate of up to 2.5 microg CH4 h(-1) g(-1) dwt was recorded in these microcosms. In the aerobic as well as anaerobic microcosms, typically 90% of the mineral oil degraded belonged to the mineral oil fraction that eluted from the gas chromatograph after C10 and before C15, while 10% belonged to the fraction that eluted after C15 and before C40. Our results suggest that anaerobic petroleum hydrocarbon degradation, including n-alkane degradation, under methanogenic conditions plays a significant role in the natural attenuation in boreal conditions.

新疆石油污染土壤中微生物多环芳烃(polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons,PAHs)降解功能基因研究甚少,且环境因子和功能基因之间相关性仍不清楚。【目的】揭示新疆石油污染砂质土壤自然衰减过程中多环芳烃降解关键基因结构和变化规律。【方法】以新疆准东油田为研究区,分析同一采油区不同石油污染年限土壤理化因子和多环芳烃含量变化,采用扩增子测序研究石油自然衰减过程中多环芳烃降解酶基因结构变化规律,利用Mental检验探讨其环境驱动因子。【结果】石油污染时间1年和3年的土壤中有多项理化指标与背景土存在显著性差异,而污染5年土壤与背景土之间仅2项指标具有显著性差异,随石油自然衰减逐渐恢复至正常。石油污染1年的土壤中16种多环芳烃除苊烯和?以外,其余14种多环芳烃均高于石油污染3年和5年土壤,多环芳烃总量和含油率污染1年土壤均显著高于污染3年和5年的土壤,多环芳烃会在污染后短时间内迅速被降解。扩增子测序结果显示,萘双加氧酶基因分类操作单元(operational taxonomic units,OTUs)序列随污染年限延长逐渐增多;芳环羟化双加氧酶基因OTUs序列BLAST(...     

Sinapate esters provide greater UV-B attenuation than flavonoids in Arabidopsis thaliana (Brassicaceae)

Mutants affected in flavonoid (tt4) or sinapate ester (fah1) biosynthesis were used to assess the relative importance of these phenolic UV photoprotectants in Arabidopsis. Flavonoid and sinapate ester absorption was more specific for UV-B than major nonphenolic chromophores in crude extracts. A new method of evaluating phenolic UV-B attenuation was developed using fluorescence analysis. When excited by UV-B, sinapate ester containing leaves and cotyledons had enhanced sinapate ester fluorescence and reduced chlorophyll fluorescence relative to those without sinapate esters. Although fluorescence analysis gave no evidence of UV-B attenuation by flavonoids, enhanced chlorophyll and protein loss were observed upon UV-B exposure in flavonoid-deficient leaves, suggesting they have another mechanism of UV-B protection. The hydroxycinnamates have been largely ignored as UV-B attenuating pigments, and the results indicate that greater attention should be paid to their role in attenuating UV-B.
