The isotopic composition of particulate organic carbon (POC) from the Black Sea deep-water zone was studied during a Russian-Swiss
expedition in May 1998. POC from the upper part of the hydrogen sulfide zone (the C-layer) was found to be considerably enriched
with the12C isotope, as compared to the POC of the oxycline and anaerobic zone. In the C-layer waters, the concurrent presence of dissolved
oxygen and hydrogen sulfide and an increased rate of dark CO2 fixation were recorded, suggesting that the change in the POC isotopic composition occurs at the expense of newly formed
isotopically light organic matter of the biomass of autotrophic bacteria involved in the sulfur cycle. In the anaerobic waters
below the C-layer, the organic matter of the biomass of autotrophs is consumed by the community of heterotrophic microorganisms;
this results in weighting of the POC isotopic composition. Analysis of the data obtained and data available in the literature
allows an inference to be made about the considerable seasonable variability of the POC δ13C value, which depends on the ratio of terrigenic and planktonogenic components in the particulate organic matter. 相似文献

Historians of science have attributed the emergence of ecology as a discipline in the late nineteenth century to the synthesis
of Humboldtian botanical geography and Darwinian evolution. In this essay, I begin to explore another, largely neglected but
very important dimension of this history. Using Sergei Vinogradskii’s career and scientific research trajectory as a point
of entry, I illustrate the manner in which microbiologists, chemists, botanists, and plant physiologists inscribed the concept
of a “cycle of life” into their investigations. Their research transformed a longstanding notion into the fundamental approaches
and concepts that underlay the new ecological disciplines that emerged in the 1920s. Pasteur thus joins Humboldt as a foundational
figure in ecological thinking, and the broader picture that emerges of the history of ecology explains some otherwise puzzling
features of that discipline – such as its fusion of experimental and natural historical methodologies. Vinogradskii’s personal
“cycle of life” is also interesting as an example of the interplay between Russian and Western European scientific networks
and intellectual traditions. Trained in Russia to investigate nature as a super-organism comprised of circulating energy,
matter, and life; over the course of five decades – in contact with scientists and scientific discourses in France, Germany,
and Switzerland – he developed a series of research methods that translated the concept of a “cycle of life” into an ecologically
conceived soil science and microbiology in the 1920s and 1930s. These methods, bolstered by his authority as a founding father
of microbiology, captured the attention of an international network of scientists. Vinogradskii’s conceptualization of the
“cycle of life” as chemosynthesis, autotrophy, and global nutrient cycles attracted the attention of ecosystem ecologists;
and his methods appealed to practitioners at agricultural experiment stations and microbiological institutes in the United
States, Western Europe, and the Soviet Union. 相似文献

Microbiological and biogeochemical measurements showed that the intensities of CO2 assimilation, methane oxidation, and sulfate reduction at the Lost City vent field (3° N) reach 3.8 µg C/(1 day), 0.06 µg C/(1 day), and 117 µg S/(1 day), respectively. On the surface of the carbonate structures occurring at this field, two varieties of bacterial mats were found. The first variety, which is specific to the Lost City alkaline vent field, represents jellylike bacterial mats dominated by slime-producing bacteria of several morphotypes. This mat variety also contains chemolithotrophic and heterotrophic microorganisms, either microaerobic or anaerobic. The intensities of CO2 assimilation, methane oxidation, and sulfate reduction in this variety reach 747 µg C/(dm3 day), 0.02 µg C/(dm3 day), and 28000 µg S/(dm3 day), respectively. Bacterial mats of the second variety are formed by nonpigmented filamentous sulfur bacteria, which are close morphologically to Thiothrix. The intensities of CO2 assimilation, methane oxidation, and sulfate reduction in the second mat variety reach 8.2 µg C/(dm3 day), 5.8 µg C/(dm3 day), and 17000 µg S/(dm3 day), respectively. These data suggest the existence of subsurface microflora at the Lost City vent field.Translated from Mikrobiologiya, Vol. 74, No. 1, 2005, pp. 111–118.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Dulov, Lein, Dubinina, Pimenov. 相似文献

A fauna of provannid and provannid‐like shells is described from Upper Cretaceous seep carbonates in Hokkaido, Japan. We describe two new provannid species, Provanna tappuensis sp. nov. and Desbruyeresia kanajirisawensis sp. nov. , with preserved protoconchs of unquestionable provannid type with decollate apex. This material confirms the occurrence of Provannidae as early as the Middle Cenomanian. We also describe Hokkaidoconcha gen. nov. and a new family Hokkaidoconchidae fam. nov. , with two named species, H. hikidai sp. nov. and H. tanabei sp. nov . Hokkaidoconchidae are possibly related to the Provannidae, judging from a similar, but not decollate larval shell, although the juvenile teleoconch whorls differ in being of a general cerithimorph appearance and the details of the aperture are unknown. Furthermore, we review the published fossil record of Provannidae and Abyssochrysidae, and we consider that in those older than the Eocene, there is no evidence preserved that unequivocally supports a position there. The Jurassic Acanthostrophia acanthica from Italy seems to be the oldest known record of Abyssochrysidae, and the most reliable occurrence of the family, older than from the Miocene. Other fossil, pre‐Miocene species that have been classified in the Abyssochryssidae are provisionally referred to Hokkaidoconchidae. © 2008 The Linnean Society of London, Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2008, 154 , 421–436. 相似文献

Methane is oversaturated relative to the atmosphere in many rivers, yet its cycling and fate is poorly understood. While photosynthesis is the dominant source of autotrophic carbon to rivers, chemosynthesis and particularly methane oxidation could provide alternative sources of primary production where the riverbed is heavily shaded or at depth beneath the sediment surface. Here, we highlight geographically widespread methanotrophic carbon fixation within the gravel riverbeds of over 30 chalk rivers. In 15 of these, the potential for methane oxidation (methanotrophy) was also compared with photosynthesis. In addition, we performed detailed concurrent measurements of photosynthesis and methanotrophy in one large chalk river over a complete annual cycle, where we found methanotrophy to be active to at least 15 cm into the riverbed and to be strongly substrate limited. The seasonal trend in methanotrophic activity reflected that of the riverine methane concentrations, and thus the highest rates were measured in mid-summer. At the sediment surface, photosynthesis was limited by light for most of the year with heavy shading induced by dense beds of aquatic macrophytes. Across 15 rivers, in late summer, we conservatively calculated that net methanotrophy was equivalent to between 1% and 46% of benthic net photosynthetic production within the gravel riverbed, with a median value of 4%. Hence, riverbed chemosynthesis, coupled to the oxidation of methane, is widespread and significant in English chalk rivers. 相似文献

Dissolution of the Silurian-Devonian aquifer in the Lake Huron Basin has produced several karst formations in the bedrock
(sinkholes), through which groundwater emerges onto the lake floor. During September 2003, we explored a recently discovered
submerged sinkhole ecosystem (55 m × 40 m × ∼1 m) located at a depth of 93 m with a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) equipped
with a conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) system, an acoustic navigational system, a video camera, and a water sampling
system. In addition to two morphotypes of benthic mats, a 1–2 m thick visibly cloudy near-bottom nepheloid-like layer (sinkhole
plume) with a strong hydrogen sulfide odor prevailed just above the seepage area of clear water. Relative to lake water, water
samples collected within the sinkhole plume were characterized by slightly higher (by 4°C) temperatures, very high levels
of chloride (up to 175 mg l−1) and conductivity (1,700 μS cm−1), as well as extremely high concentrations of sulfate (1,400 mg l−1), phosphorus (3 mg l−1) and particulate organic matter (400 mg C l−1). Compared to background lake water, sinkhole plume water was characterized by approximately twofold lower C:N ratios and
tenfold higher levels of dissolved organic carbon, bacterial biomass as well as heterotrophic bacterial production. Significant
uptake of 14C-bicarbonate in dark incubations provided preliminary evidence for occurrence of chemosynthesis, possibly mediated by specialized
Bacteria and Archea present in this submerged sinkhole ecosystem in the Laurentian Great Lakes. 相似文献

In 1890, Sergei Nikolaevich Vinogradskii (Winogradsky) proposed a novel life process called chemosynthesis. His discovery
that some microbes could live solely on inorganic matter emerged during his physiological research in 1880s in Strassburg
and Zurich on sulfur, iron, and nitrogen bacteria. In his nitrification research, Vinogradskii first embraced the idea that
microbiology could have great bearing on agricultural problems. His critique of agricultural chemists and Kochian-style bacteriologists
brought this message to the broader agricultural community, resulting in an heightened interest in biological, rather than
chemical methods to investigate soil processes. From 1891 to 1910, he directed the microbiological laboratory at the Imperial
Institute of Experimental Medicine in St. Petersburg, Russia, where he expanded his chemosynthesis research to a broad investigation
of the manifold significance of autotrophic organisms in soil processes. This work and that of his students attracted the
serious attention of agricultural chemists and soil scientists in Russia and abroad, changing essentially the way they understood
and investigated the role of microbes in the soil. His student, Vasilii Omelianskii, effectively integrated Vinogradskii’s
approach into Russian and Soviet, and international agricultural microbiology. Vinogradskii’s activities in the late 19th
century reflect the changes occurring more broadly in science. At that time, microbiologists such as Louis Pasteur, Eugenius
Warming, and Martianus Beijerinck were contributing new laboratory methods and theoretical perspectives to incipient disciplines
closely related to agriculture: ecology, soil science, and soil microbiology. 相似文献

The importance of metals to life has long been appreciated. Iron (Fe) is the fourth most abundant element overall, and the second most abundant element that is redox-active in near-surface aqueous habitats, rendering it the most important environmental metal. While it has long been recognized that microorganisms participate in the global iron cycle, appreciation for the pivotal role that redox cycling of iron plays in energy conservation among diverse prokaryotes has grown substantially in the past decade. In addition, redox reactions involving Fe are linked to several other biogeochemical cycles (e.g., carbon), with significant ecological ramifications. The increasing appreciation for the role of microbes in redox transformations of Fe is reflected in a recent surge in biological and environmental studies of microorganisms that conserve energy for growth from redox cycling of Fe compounds, particularly in the deep ocean. Here we highlight some of the key habitats where microbial Fe-oxidation plays significant ecological and biogeochemical roles in the oceanic regime, and provide a synthesis of recent studies concerning this important physiological group. We also provide the first evidence that microbial Fe-oxidizing bacteria are a critical factor in the kinetics of mineral dissolution at the seafloor, by accelerating dissolution by 6–8 times over abiotic rates. We assert that these recent studies, which indicate that microbial Fe-oxidation is widespread in the deep-sea, combined with the apparent role that this group play in promoting rock and mineral weathering, indicate that a great deal more attention to these microorganisms is warranted in order to elucidate the full physiological and phylogenetic diversity and activity of the neutrophilic Fe-oxidizing bacteria in the oceans. 相似文献
