The effectiveness of eight chemical extraction methods was evaluated on 15 Indian soils for the prediction of plant-available potassium (K+) to Sudan grass (Sorghum vulgare var. sudanensis) grown in modified Neubauer technique. Average amounts of soil K+ extracted were in descending order: Morgan’s reagent > 0.5 M sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) > neutral 1N ammonium acetate (NH4OAc) > 1N nitric acid (HNO3) > 0.02 M calcium chloride (CaCl2) > 0.1N HNO3 > Bray and Kurtz No.1> distilled water. The highest simple correlation with plant K+ uptake was obtained with NH4OAc-K+ (r = 0.866**) and the lowest with CaCl2-K+ (r = 0.45*). To develop the predictive models using stepwise regression, plant K+ uptake was used as the dependent variable and the extractable soil K+, pH, sand, silt and organic carbon (C) contents as the independent variables. Based on the final R2, the NH4OAc model was found to be the best predictor of plant-available K+ in the soils when used along with sand and organic C.  相似文献

Goal, Scope and Background  Situated in the transboundary belt between Montenegro and Albania, Lake Skadar is the largest freshwater reservoir in Southeastern Europe. Because of the wide range of endemic, rare or endangered plant and animal species it supports, Lake Skadar and its extensive adjacent wetlands are internationally recognised as a site of significance and importance (Ramsar site). Within the last 10 to 20 years, Lake Skadar was exposed to intensive pollution. For the assessment of the ecotoxic load of the sediments sampled in Lake Skadar, a triad approach was recently applied. Overall, a complex spectrum of ecotoxic loads was elucidated. The aim of the present study was to use plant-based bioassays for assessing the sediment quality of Lake Skadar in order to facilitate and complement the triad test battery. The newly developed sediment contact test with Myriophyllum aquaticum and the aquatic growth inhibition test with Lemna minor were applied to native sediments and pore water, respectively, allowing the investigation of different toxicity-effects caused by particle-bound pollutants as well as pollutants in the interstitial water. This investigation is the first application of the novel sediment contact test with Myriophyllum aquaticum to lake sediments. Methods  Sediment samples were taken from nine selected sites at Lake Skadar and investigated by the sediment contact assay with Myriophyllum aquaticum. The pore water was extracted from these sediment samples to be analysed in the aquatic growth inhibition test with Lemna minor. The results of the sediment contact tests were compared with each other and with those of the aquatic growth inhibition test. Results and Discussion  Both applied macrophyte biotests revealed distinct changes in the growth behaviour of the two macrophytes subsequent to the exposure to the investigated natural sediments of Lake Skadar. The Myriophyllum sediment contact test revealed significant toxicity in the sediment samples from Radus and Kamenik, whereas the aquatic Lemna test showed inhibition effects for the samples from Sterbeq, Plavnica and Kamice. Data obtained with the newly developed Danio rerio contact test and the Arthrobacter globiformis contact test confirmed the Myriophyllum results. Analyses of the heavy metal content in the sediments revealed low or moderate contamination levels. Correlation analyses between the content of heavy metals in the sediments and growth inhibition of Myriophyllum aquaticum showed a significant correlation between Cr concentrations and growth inhibition. Comparable findings are available for a German river system. In contrast, no significant correlation between inhibition rates and concentration of metals could be observed with Lemna minor. Conclusions  It was shown that the newly developed sediment contact test with Myriophyllum aquaticum is applicable to lake sediments. In both the sediment contact test with Myriophyllum aquaticum on whole sediments and the aquatic growth inhibition test with Lemna minor on pore water, plant growth was influenced by the natural sediments and its components. Therefore, both test systems were found to be suitable for the detection of phytotoxic effects upon exposure to sediments. Myriophyllum aquaticum as test organism of the contact test grows directly in the sediment without an additional water-layer. Thus, it is able to detect toxicity caused by particle-bound phytotoxic substances as well as pore water-related contamination, while the floating Lemna minor can only detect effects emanating from pore water. Significant differences of the results were observed between these two test systems and, accordingly, the two different exposure scenarios. Hence, none of the tests can replace the other one and, as a consequence, both should be included into a test battery for the assessment of sediment toxicity. Recommendations and Perspectives  Both plant assays were shown to be reliable tools for the evaluation of the eco-toxicological risk potentials of pore water and solid-phase sediment. They should become a complement to the standardised test battery generally used for comprehensive hazard assessment.

The aim of this work was to compare the kinetic parameters of acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2.) extracted from two forest soils under oak or pine. Soil was extracted with 4 mM CaCl2 and the extract was divided into two fractions by filtration: one >0.2 μm containing microbial cells and soil particulates, and the other <0.2 μm containing fine particles and dissolved organic compounds of soil. The >0.2 μm fraction had higher Km (0.26–0.82 vs. 0.12–0.39) and Vmax (0.07–0.79 vs. 0.06–0.16) values than the <0.2 μm fraction, indicating a higher enzyme-substrate affinity and smaller amount of enzyme in fine particles and dissolved organic matter.  相似文献

Summary In vitro maintenance of plant organs can enhance programs in plant breeding and germplasm resources. In bulbous plants, such as onion (Allium cepa L.) and leek (A. ampeloprasum L.) induction and storage of in vitro bulblets could enable long term maintenance of special genotypes. In vitro cultivated seedlings of onion and leek were induced to form bulblets by increase in sucrose concentration (30, 50, 150 g/1), and addition of benzyladenine (BA-0, 12.5 mg/1), or ethephon (0, 5, 20 days). The highest bulbing ratios were obtained within combinations of sucrose and ethephon treatments. BA caused not only bulb swelling but also an increase of multiple adventitious shoot formation. Increasing the sucrose concentration and treatment with ethephon are used to obtain bulblets for in vitro storage under conditions of slow growth.Abbreviations BA benzyladenine - BDS medium according to Dunstan & Short (1977) - BD maximal basis (bulb) diameter - BI bulbing index - BC basal callus - BS basal sprouting - ND bulb neck diameter  相似文献

Abstract

The proportion of copper (Cu) that can be extracted by soil test extractants varied with the soil matrix. The plant‐available forms of Cu and the efficiency of various soil test extractants [(0.01 M Ca(NO3)2, 0.1 M NaNO3, 0.01 M CaCl2, 1.0 M NH4NO3, 0.1 M HCl, 0.02 M SrCl2, Mehlich‐1 (M1), Mehlich‐3 (M3), and TEA‐DTPA.)] to predict the availability of Cu for two contrasting pasture soils were treated with two sources of Cu fertilizers (CuSO4 and CuO). The efficiency of various chemical reagents in extracting the Cu from the soil followed this order: TEA‐DTPA>Mehlich‐3>Mehlich‐1>0.02 M SrCl2>0.1 M HCl>1.0 M NH4NO3>0.01 M CaCl2>0.1 M NaNO3>0.01 M Ca(NO3)2. The ratios of exchangeable: organic: oxide bound: residual forms of Cu in M1, M3, and TEA‐DTPA for the Manawatu soil are 1:20:25:4, 1:14:8:2, and 1:56:35:8, respectively, and for the Ngamoka soil are 1:14:6:4, 1:9:5:2, and 1:55:26:17, respectively. The ratios of different forms of Cu suggest that the Cu is residing mainly in the organic form, and it decreases in the order: organic>oxide>residual>exchangeable. There was a highly significant relationship between the concentrations of Cu extracted by the three soil test extractants. The determination of the coefficients obtained from the regression relationship between the amounts of Cu extracted by M1, M3, and TEA‐DTPA reagents suggests that the behavior of extractants was similar. But M3 demonstrated a greater increase of Cu from the exchangeable form and organic complexes due to the dual activity of EDTA and acids for the different fractions and is best suited for predicting the available Cu in pasture soils.  相似文献

Summary The vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus monosporum was inoculated on grapevine (Vitis vinifera), red clover (Trifolium pratense), meadow grass (Poa pratensis) and onion (Allium cepa) as hosts in two experiments carried out in different environments. Grapevine and clover showed the largest growth response and spore production. Mycorrhizal infection was lowest in meadow grass. Very poor correlations were observed, on an overall basis, between spore production and per cent root infection or infected root length. Spore production per unit infected root length for each host species was a comparatively stable parameter; it was largest for grapevine and smallest for meadow grass in both experiments. Sporulation was positively correlated with growth enhancement by mycorrhizal plants, and growth increments per unit infected root followed the same trend as spore numbers per unit infected root, i.e. largest for grapevine and lowest for meadow-grass. It is concluded that the ability of G. monosporum to produce spores and to enhance plant growth per unit infected root length depends on the host plant species.  相似文献

Deforestation in southeast Brazil has led to the extinction of Hymenaea courbaril var. stilbocarpa and ex situ conservation has been established. In this study, the levels of genetic diversity and the effective population size of H. courbaril in a germplasm bank were investigated using six nuclear microsatellite loci. A total of 79 and 91 alleles were found in 65 seed-trees and their 176 offspring, respectively. Offspring have a higher average number of alleles per locus (= 15.2) than seed-trees (= 13.2), but lower observed heterozygosity (offspring: H o = 0.566; seed-trees: H o = 0.607). The estimate of outcrossing rate shows that the study population is perfectly outcrossed (t m  = 0.978, > 0.05). Significant deviations from random mating were detected through mating among relatives and correlated matings. The average variance in effective population size for each family was 2.63, with a total effective population size retained in the bank of 170.1. These results confirm that the preserved population of H. courbaril retains substantial genetic variability. Moacyr Antonio Mestriner and Ana Lilia Alzate-Marin—CEEFLORUSP Members.  相似文献

Background, Goal and Scope  To date, standardised bioassays for the assessment of the ecotoxicological potential in sediments and dredged material use test organisms like bacteria, algae and crustaceae. This paper presents the development and application of a novel sediment contact test (whole sediment) withMyriophyllum aquaticum, a representative of rooted aquatic macrophytes. The aim of the present study is to demonstrate the value of a sediment contact test with rooted macrophytes as a supplement to existing test batteries in order to improve the assessment of sediment toxicity. Methods  The newly developed sediment contact test withMyriophylhim aquaticum was applied to natural whole sediments. For performing the test, whorls ofMyriophyllum aquaticum were directly planted in the native sediment and incubated in the light at 24°C (cf. section results and discussion). The end points of the test were the number of the shoots and the fresh weight of the whole plants. The duckweed growth inhibition test withLemna minor according to ISO/DIS 20079 was performed in pore waters from sediment samples. The results of the sediment contact test withMyriophyllum aquaticum were compared with each other and with those of the aquatic duckweed test. Results and Discussion  A test protocol for the new plant-based sediment contact test using the aquatic plantMyriophyllum aquaticum as an indicator was developed. The best control sediment proved to be the OECD sediment (OECD 207). A test period of 10 days appeared to be sufficient for the test. The increase of biomass and the derived growth rate were found to be the most suitable evaluation parameters. The growth behaviour ofMyriophyllum aquaticum differed depending on the origin of sediments. Therefore, plant-affecting contamination, that is bound in sediments, was indicated. Conclusions  The novel sediment contact test withMyriophyllum aquaticum can indicate phytotoxic effects in sediments. Therefore, it allows a better assessment of the overall-toxicity in whole sediments. Recommendations and Outlook  The sediment contact test withMyriophyllum aquaticum is a valuable tool for the evaluation of the ecotoxicological risk potential of waters and sediments. It should become a complement to a standardised test battery generally used for the assessment of sediment toxicity.  相似文献

Twenty-four surface soils (0–15 cm) were collected from Tal land soils (vertisols) in the southern part of Bihar state in India. Six extractants were used to predict the extractability and their suitability for measuring available zinc (Zn) in these soils. Pot experiment with chickpea (Cicer arietinum cv. C-235) as test crop was conducted with five levels of Zn (0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, and 10.0 mg kg?1) to determine critical levels of Zn in soils and chickpea. The efficiency rating of different extractants in extracting available Zn from soils followed the order ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)–ammonium carbonate [(NH4)2CO3] > diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA)–ammonium bicarbonate (NH4HCO3) > DTPA– calcium chloride (CaCl2) > DTPA–sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) > magnesium nitrate [Mg (NO3)2] > magnesium chloride (MgCl2). The DTPA-CaCl2-extractable Zn was significantly and positively correlated with clay, organic carbon, cation exchange capacity, dry-matter yield, and plant Zn concentration and uptake but significantly and negatively correlated with soil pH. These properties attributed 87% variability in DTPA-CaCl2-extractable Zn.  相似文献

Background  Petroleum products are widely used in various sections of industry and they are one of the most abundant sources of environmental contamination. These products are classified by their physico-chemical properties such as boiling point, density and viscosity. Oil contamination in the environment is primarily evaluated by measuring the chemical concentrations of petroleum products in the solid or water phase. The results of chemical analyses do not correspond directly with the harmful environmental effects of petroleum products on the soil flora and fauna, because the interactions between oil compounds and the production of their methabolites in soil are not measured in chemical assessments. These kinds of effects of complex chemical mixtures in soil can be estimated by bioassays. Therefore, ecotoxicological tests are important for estimating soil quality in the risk assessment of oil-contaminated soil sites. Objectives  The objective of this study was to examine the oil-contaminated soil site of a closed petrol station with both chemical and ecotoxicological methods. The goals of this study were to compare the sensitivity of the terrestrial and aquatic bioassays and to compare the toxicity responses of aquatic bioassays determined from three different extraction procedures. In addition, our aim was to characterise a cost-effective battery of bioassays that could be applied to a comparison of oil-contaminated soils. It was in our interest to investigate oil-contaminated soil with oil concentrations of 2500–12000 mg/kg and to find out the possible differences between terrestrial and aquatic toxicity tests. Methods  Six soil samples from a closed petrol station were examined for toxicity with terrestrial and aquatic tests. Terrestrial tests includedEnchytraeus albidus survival and reproduction assays and seed germination assays using wheat, cress, lettuce, and red clover seeds and growth inhibition assays of onions. The toxicities of the water-extractable fractions of the soil samples obtained from three different extractions were tested with aquatic bioassays based on plants (onion and duckweed growth inhibition tests), microbes (luminescent bacteria test), and enzyme inhibition (reverse electron transport test, RET). Chemical analyses of the solid samples were carried out simultaneously. Results. Oil concentrations ranged from 2500 to 12000 mg/kg, BTEX varied from 300 to 2800 mg/kg, and fuel additives: MTBE and TAME from 0.0 1 to 260 mg/kg. Only the sample contain-ing 12000 mg/kg oil had a significant toxic impact on all test organisms. Soil samples with oil concentrations 2500–6200 mg/ kg had no or only slight adverse effects on the test organisms with one exception, theE. albidus reproduction test. TheE. albidus survival and reproduction tests were the most sensitive bioassays of the terrestrial tests, and the luminescent bacteria test of the aquatic tests.  相似文献

Salinization of soils has led to the loss of cropland and represents a major threat to food production. Hyperspectral imaging may prove to be useful for characterizing the spectral behavior of salt-affected soils but the methodology needs to be better evaluated. In this study, we characterized the spectral behaviors of four types of chloride salt crusts [calcium chloride dehydrate, magnesium chloride dehydrate, potassium chloride, and sodium chloride (CaCl2·2H2O, KCl, and NaCl)] formed in the laboratory. We found that (1) as salt concentration increased, the reflectance intensity decreased for both soil types, and the decreases were especially pronounced for the soils leached with the CaCl2·2H2O and MgCl2·2H2O solutions; (2) soil texture had little if any effect on reflectance; and (3) reflectance intensity decreased in the order CaCl2·2H2O < MgCl2·2H2O < KCl < NaCl. By clarifying the spectral behavior of chloride salt crusts on soils, our work demonstrates hyperspectral imaging may differentiate some types of salts and determine relative salt concentrations.  相似文献

The bulb onion (Allium cepa L.) was historically seed propagated by open pollination (OP). Cytoplasmic-genic male sterility (CMS) and protandry encourage outcrossing among individual onion plants. The most common source of CMS in onion is conditioned by the interaction of sterile (S) cytoplasm with a single nuclear male-fertility restoration (Ms) locus. We previously reported that the majority of OP onion populations possess normal (N) male-fertile cytoplasm and varying frequencies of the dominant Ms allele. It was unclear why N-cytoplasmic onion populations often possess relatively high frequencies of the Ms allele, which has no obvious function. We used computer simulations to estimate changes in allelic frequencies at Ms for onion populations possessing S-cytoplasm or a mixture of N- and S-cytoplasms, and to determine if frequencies of the Ms allele stay constant or change due to failure of male gamete production from male-sterile (S msms) plants. The models revealed selection against the recessive ms allele over generations in onion populations possessing S-cytoplasm and varying amounts of self pollination and inbreeding depression. These models were consistent with field and molecular analyses documenting that N-cytoplasm and the dominant Ms allele predominate in OP onion populations.  相似文献

Abstract

A trial was carried out with compost and compost/peat mixtures to test several extraction methods for the estimation of availability of phosphorus (P). The test plant was Dendranthema grandiflorum All composts had a high pH and salt content. Amounts of P extracted by different extraction methods decreased in the order: Formate < CAL < NH4‐acetate < CaCl2/DTPA < CaCl2. Dilution of compost with peat decreased pH and increased availability of P. The better availability of P caused by dilution with peat was not reflected by the Formate‐, CAL‐, and NH4‐acetate method. These acid and well‐buffered extraction solutions overestimate P, and are therefore not suited to estimate availability of P in composts and compost/peat mixtures. Weak extraction solutions, like CaCl2 and CaCl2/DTPA, gave results which showed a good correlation with P content of plants and P uptake. The advantage of the latter method compared with CaCl2 is the extraction of amounts of P comparable to amounts taken up by the plants. Therefore of all the extraction methods tested, the CaCl2/DTPA method showed the best suitability to estimate the availability of P in composts and compost/peat mixtures.  相似文献

The suitability of seven chemical extractants was evaluated on 24 Indian coastal soils for prediction of plant-available potassium (K) to rice (Oryza sativa L. var. NC 492) grown in modified Neubauer technique. Average amounts of soil K extracted were in descending order: 0.5 M NaHCO3 > neutral 1 N NH4OAc > 0.02 M CaCl2 > Bray and Kurtz No.1 > 1 N HNO3 > 0.1 N HNO3 > distilled water. The highest simple correlation with plant K uptake was obtained with 0.1 N HNO3-K (r = 0.848) and lowest with CaCl2-K (r = 0.805). Predictive models were developed using plant K uptake as the dependent variable and extractable soil K, sand, silt, soil pH, and electrical conductivity as the independent variables. Based on the final R2 and ease of measurement, distilled water, 1 N NH4OAc, and 0.1 N HNO3 models were the best predictors of plant-available K in coastal soils when used along with sand or soil pH.  相似文献

The rose of an isolate of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungusGlomus mosseae in the protection ofMedicago sativa (+Rhizobium meliloti) against salt stress induced by the addition of increasing levels of soluble salts was studied. The interactions between soluble P in soil (four levels), mycorrhizal inoculum and degree of salinity in relation to plant growth, nutrition and infective parameters were evaluated. Salt stress was induced by sequential irrigation with saline water having four concentrations of three salts (NaCl, CaCl2, and MgCl2).15N-labelled ammonium sulphate was added to provide a quantitative estimate of N2 fixation under moderate to high salinity levels. N and P concentration and nodule formation increased with the amount of plant-available P or mycorrhizal inoculum in the soil and generally declined as the salinity in the solution culture increased from a moderate to a high level. The mycorrhizal inoculation protected the plants from salt stress more efficiently than any amount of plant-available P in soil, particularly at the highest salinity level applied (43.5 dS m–1). Mycorrhizal inoculation matched the effect on dry matter and nutrition of the addition in the soil of 150 mg P kg–1. Nevertheless the highest saline solution assayed (43.5 dS m–1) affected more severely plants supplemented with phosphorus than those with the addition of mycorrhizal inoculum. Such a saline-depressing effect was 1.5 (biomass), 1.4 (N) and 1.5 (P) times higher in plants supplied with soluble phosphate than with AM inoculum. Mechanisms beyond those mediated by P must be involved in the AM-protectioe effect against salinity. The15N methodology used allowed the determination of N2 fixation as influenced by different P applications compared to mycorrhizal inoculation. A lack of correlation between nodule formation and function (N2 fixation) was evidenced in mycorrhizal-inoculated plants. In spite of the reduced activity per nodule in mycorrhizal-inoculated In spite of the reduced activity per nodule in mycorrhizal-inoculated plants, the N contents determined indicated the highest acquisition of N occurred in plants with the symbiotic status. Moreover, N and P uptake increased while Ca and Mg decreased in AM-inoculated plants. Thus P/Ca ratios and cation/anion balance in general were altered in mycorrhizal treatments. This study therefore confirms previous findings that AM-colonized plants have optional and alternative mechanisms available to satisfy their nutritive requirements and to maintain their physiological status in stress situations and in disturbed ecosystems.  相似文献

Fluorochrome staining with chromomycin A3 (CMA) was used to characterize and compare the CMA banding patterns of chromosomes of 17 species from 13 genera of Aurantioideae, which is one of the seven subfamilies of Rutaceae. All species used in this study had 2n = 18 chromosomes. These chromosomes were classified into five types based on the number and position of CMA-positive bands; B: one telomeric and one proximal band, C: two telomeric bands, D: one telomeric band, E: without bands and Dst: type D with a satellite chromosome. Each species possessed two or four types of chromosomes and unique CMA banding patterns. The CMA banding patterns were 6D + 12E in Clausena anisata (Willd.)

The advanced genera in each tribe and subtribe such as Merrillia and Feroniella showed heterochromatin (CMA-positive bands) rich chromosome configuration in general. Swinglea glutinosa without heterochromatin rich chromosome, which is considered to be the most primitive chromosome configuration, seems to be the key genus for clarifying the evolution of the tribe Citreae.  相似文献

Abstract

A pot experiment with soils from Austria (Mollisol and Alfisol) and Brazil (two Oxisols), quite different in pH values and organic carbon contents, was carried out. Several soil tests for aluminum (Al) were evaluated and compared for their ability in predicting plant growth reductions and plant Al concentrations. Concerning the efficacy of the extradants in solubilizing soil Al, the amount of Al extracted decreased in the following order: 0.03M LaCl3> 1M KCl > 1M NH4Cl > 0.01 M CaCl2. Only AlCaCl2 and Al saturation correlated significantly with shoot yield of Poa pratensis (r = 0.76*** for CaCl2; r = 0.84 *** for Al saturation) and Phaseolus vulgaris (r = 0.65** for CaCl2; r = 0.83** for Al saturation). The results indicated that soil organic matter and the nutrient status of the soil had an important effect as diminishing Al uptake and improving growth of both Poa pratensis and Phaseolus vulgaris. Interactions between Al and magnesium (Mg) were also observed.  相似文献

To test the relative usefulness of different methods of chemical analysis for soil nitrogen fractions in the assessment of the fertilizer nitrogen needs of sugar beet, different doses of nitrogen were applied in field experiments laid out during the years 1985–1991. The chemical methods used were N mineral (NO 3 +NH + 4 ) analyses on soil samples taken in late winter, and extraction with 0.01 M CaCl2 from soil samples taken the preceding autumn and in late winter. The results of the chemical methods were evaluated in models using estimated optimum nitrogen fertilization, nitrogen present in beets or beets+leaves at leaf maximum and sugar yield as variables. In addition, parameters such as estimates of possible rooting depth and mineralization capacity of the soil were also included in the model. All models for estimating nitrogen fertilization need showed low R 2 values. The two methods of soil chemical analysis yielded similar R 2 values for nitrogen uptake in plots both with and without nitrogen fertilization. The N mineral method was least useful in predicting sugar yield. Addition of the covariables rooting depth and mineralization capacity appreciably improved the explanatory value of the models with 0.01 M CaCl2, especially when the analytical results of soil samples taken in autumn were used. For the N mineral method the addition of covariates was found to have far less influence.  相似文献
