在实验条件下,利用流式细胞术探讨了重金属镉对赤潮异弯藻和微小原甲藻的种群增长和种间竞争的影响,实验结果如下:(1)共培养的条件下,Cd2+胁迫前后2种微藻的细胞体积和细胞内容物复杂程度没有一致的变化规律,但叶绿素a含量和存活率均呈下降趋势;(3)叶绿素a荧光值和存活率可以考虑作为Cd2+胁迫增强的微藻生物标志物系统的指标。     

Fe3+胁迫对假微型海链藻中性脂累积及DGAT 表达的影响

二酰甘油酰基转移酶(DGAT)是脂类合成途径中的关键酶,其表达水平的高低影响着脂类含量的高低。微量元素Fe3+对于微藻的生长不可或缺,且影响着微藻中油脂的累积。本实验以假微型海链藻(Thalassiosira pseudonana)为研究对象,分析了铁限制(0.000 03mmol/L)和高铁胁迫(0.3 mmol/L)2种Fe3+胁迫条件下,不同种群生长期中性脂累积及二酰甘油酰基转移酶(DGAT)的基因表达受到的影响。结果显示:铁限制条件下,微藻种群生长及其中性脂的合成受到抑制,DGAT的表达量下降;高铁胁迫条件下,高浓度Fe3+可促进中性脂合成与DGAT的表达,但抑制微藻种群生长。因此,富铁条件下更利于总脂的收集。     

邻苯二甲酸二丁酯污染对老鼠簕幼苗抗逆性生理特性的影响

以红树植物老鼠簕作为实验材料,通过模拟海水实验,研究了不同质量浓度(0、1、2、5、10、20mg/L)的邻苯二甲酸二丁酯(DBP)污染暴露对老鼠簕幼苗叶绿素含量、比值及抗氧化酶系统(SOD,POD,CAT)等生理指标的影响。结果表明:(1)当DBP浓度为5mg/L时,DBP污染对老鼠簕幼苗叶绿素含量具有一定促进作用,其余浓度DBP污染均会使老鼠簕幼苗叶绿素含量显著下降; DBP污染对老鼠簕幼苗叶绿素a/b比值基本无影响;(2)随着DBP浓度升高,老鼠簕幼苗抗氧化酶活性均呈现先上升后下降的变化。说明DBP污染会导致老鼠簕幼苗叶片衰老;低浓度DBP暴露(≤10mg/L)可以诱导老鼠簕幼苗抗氧化酶系统活性增加,并保持一定时间细胞内活性氧平衡,高浓度DBP暴露(10mg/L)会对老鼠簕幼苗的抗氧化酶系统产生不可逆的损伤。研究结果也为红树林湿地的保护,DBP的生态风险评价及污染控制提供了科学参考。

实验室条件下,研究不同抗生素胁迫对小球藻(Chlorella vulgarisBeij.)、金藻8701(Isochrysis galbana Parke8701.)和小新月菱形藻(Nitzschia closteriumEhr.)生长的影响。结果表明:1)低于100μg.mL-1的氯霉素作用下,小球藻和金藻8701叶绿素a含量变化与对照组无明显差异;小新月菱形藻叶绿素a含量显著降低。2)不同浓度梯度的遗传霉素(G418),均显著抑制3种微藻叶绿素a含量的增加。3)青霉素浓度低于100μg.mL-1时,能够促进3种藻叶绿素a的增加,但不同微藻间叶绿素a含量的相对增长率存在明显差异。试验结果可为微藻的基因工程选择标记和无菌培养体系的建立提供参考。     

蒽胁迫对2种海洋微藻的毒性效应

重金属胁迫对两种海洋饵料微藻的急性毒性效应研究

在模拟生态环境条件下研究了铜(Cu2+)、镉(Cd2+)和锌(Zn2+)3种重金属离子对2种海洋饵料微藻(青岛大扁藻(Platymonas helgolandica)和等鞭金藻8701(Isochrysis galbana 8701))的急性毒性效应,分析其对种群增长的影响,并利用透射电镜对微藻亚显微结构的变化进行分析。在实验浓度范围内,2种微藻的种群增长对3种重金属离子的急性胁迫表现出类似的变化趋势,随着胁迫浓度的增加,微藻的相对增长率均呈现出不断下降的趋势;通过比较2种微藻的48hEC50和96h-EC50发现:3种重金属离子的毒性程度为Cu2+Cd2+Zn2+,等鞭金藻8701对重金属胁迫的敏感性高于青岛大扁藻。2种微藻的亚显微结构观察显示,二者的膜结构及细胞核对Cu2+胁迫并不太敏感;与对照组相比等鞭金藻8701的色素体及贮能物质受影响较严重,而青岛大扁藻的叶绿体及淀粉粒受影响较大。     

多效唑对2种海洋微藻生长和抗氧化酶活性的影响

运用实验生态学和生物化学的方法,研究了多效唑对青岛大扁藻(Platymonas helgolandica)和绿色巴夫藻(Pavlova viridis)生长和抗氧化酶活性的影响.结果表明:低浓度(≤5 mg/L)多效唑能促进绿色巴夫藻的生长,与对照组相比,多效唑处理组的干重、叶绿素a、可溶性糖和蛋白质含量均有所增加(p<0.05),而低浓度(≤5 mg/L)多效唑对青岛大扁藻的生长无明显影响;高浓度(≥15 mg/L)多效唑可显著抑制青岛大扁藻和绿色巴夫藻的生长,多效唑处理组的干重、叶绿素a、可溶性糖和蛋白质含量均低于对照组(p<0.05).多效唑对青岛大扁藻和绿色巴夫藻的96 h-EC50值分别是28.6 mg/L和24.9 mg/L. 2种微藻经不同浓度多效唑处理后,细胞内抗氧化防御系统的关键性酶超氧化物歧化酶(superoxide dismutase, SOD)和过氧化物酶(peroxidase, POD)均表现为低浓度(≤5 mg/L)的诱导作用和高浓度(≥15 mg/L)时的抑制作用;不同浓度多效唑处理后,2种微藻细胞内过氧化氢酶(catalase, CAT)活性均降低.     

Cd2+浓度、温度及交互作用对3株微藻生长及叶绿素荧光特性的影响

本文研究了不同Cd2+浓度与不同温度交互作用对中国海洋大学微藻种质库(MACC)保存的小球藻(Chlorellasp.)、微绿球藻(Nannochloris oculata)和杜氏盐藻(Dunaliella salina)的叶绿素荧光参数(PSII的最大光化学量子产量Fv/Fm、PSII的实际光能转化效率Yield、光化学淬灭qP和非光化学淬灭NPQ)、叶绿素相对含量以及细胞密度的影响。结果表明,随着Cd2+浓度的升高,3株微藻的主要荧光参数、叶绿素相对含量和细胞密度均呈明显下降趋势。但微绿球藻的荧光参数Fv/Fm在对照组与10μmol/LCd2+浓度时基本一致,这可能与低浓度Cd2+在一定程度上刺激了微藻生长有关。相关性分析结果表明,3株微藻荧光参数Fv/Fm和Yield均与Cd2+浓度呈极显著的负相关,小球藻和微绿球藻的叶绿素相对含量和细胞密度与Cd2+浓度呈显著的负相关,杜氏盐藻的叶绿素相对含量和细胞密度在48h后与Cd2+浓度呈显著的负相关,随着Cd2+浓度的增加而降低。多重比较结果表明,小球藻在25℃时对Cd2+的耐受性最强,该温度下荧光参数(Fv/Fm和Yield)、细胞密度和叶绿素相对含量显著高于20℃与30℃处理组。与20℃和25℃相比,在30℃时微绿球藻对Cd2+更加敏感,各荧光参数值均较低,细胞密度和叶绿素相对含量明显下降。杜氏盐藻在25℃时对Cd2+的耐受性最强,15℃与35℃温度条件下,各参数均明显下降,表明不适合的温度会增加重金属Cd2+的胁迫作用。本文还初步探讨了叶绿素荧光技术在重金属与环境因子联合胁迫研究中的应用。     

高温胁迫对三角褐指藻和纤细角毛藻叶绿素荧光动力学的影响

研究高温胁迫(35~50℃)对三角褐指藻和纤细角毛藻叶绿素荧光动力学的影响。利用调制式叶绿素荧光仪(Wa-ter-PAM)测定了:PSⅡ的最大光能转化效率(Fv/Fm);PSⅡ的潜在活性(Fv/Fo);PSⅡ的实际光能转化效率(ΦPSⅡ=yield);光合电子传递效率(ETR);光化学淬灭(qP)和非光化学淬灭(NPQ)等主要参数。结果表明,与对照组相比,高温胁迫下2种硅藻的叶绿素荧光参数Fv/Fm,Fv/Fo,ΦPSⅡ,ETR和qP均明显降低,并且随着胁迫温度的升高,胁迫时间的延长,下降幅度也逐步增大;NPQ则先升高后下降。另外,还对高温胁迫下2种硅藻的响应机制以及叶绿素荧光技术在筛选耐高温微藻品系中的应用进行了初步探讨。     

南海北部夏季叶绿素a分布规律及影响因素

采用2002—2016年6—9月Aqua/MODIS叶绿素a产品分析珠江冲淡水在南海北部生态效应的季节及年际变化特征。6月来自陆源的营养物质在西南季风作用下向河口以东陆架区输运, 浮游植物增殖, 叶绿素a含量增大; 7月河口以东高浓度叶绿素a覆盖面积达到最大; 8月在减弱的珠江径流和环境风场共同影响下, 口门外海高浓度叶绿素a覆盖面积明显减小; 9月北部陆架区处于东北季风影响之下, 河口以西覆盖面积逐渐增大。通过线性回归分析可知, 珠江径流量是口门外海高浓度叶绿素a覆盖面积的主要影响因素, 且这种影响有一个月左右的滞后效应。显著大于(小于)多年平均的珠江径流量和环境风场等因素共同作用, 导致2008(2004)年表现为高浓度叶绿素a覆盖面积的极大值(极小值)年份。叶绿素a在南海北部陆架区的时空变化特征主要受冲淡水过程影响, 订正过的卫星叶绿素a产品可以用来讨论珠江冲淡水的季节及年际变化。     

Response of zooplankton to improving water quality in the Scheldt estuary (Belgium)

Data obtained from 14 years of monthly samplings (1996–2009) were used to investigate the response of the crustacean zooplankton community to improving water quality in the Scheldt estuary. A strong reduction of poor water quality indicators, such as NH₄⁺ and BOD₅, as well as an increase in oxygen and in chlorophyll a concentrations were observed during the study period. During the study period, important changes were observed in the zooplankton community composition and spatial distribution. From 2007 onwards, most of the calanoid population, previously mainly found in the brackish water reach of the estuary, moved to the freshwater, where they reached higher abundances than previously observed. Simultaneously, cyclopoids populations strongly decreased in freshwater while cladocerans did not change their abundance, except during years with high chlorophyll a concentrations. Redundancy analyses (RDA) showed that the variability within the calanoid population can be explained by the improvement in water quality. Variability within the cyclopoids and cladoceran community is mainly explained by chlorinity and chlorophyll a concentrations. Their presence in the most polluted upstream area until 2007 suggests they are more tolerant to poor water quality than calanoids. Several hypotheses to explain the disappearance of cyclopoids after the move of calanoids to the freshwater are presented and discussed.     

Pseudo-nitzschia spp. (Bacillariophyceae) and dissolved organic matter (DOM) dynamics in the Ebro Delta (Alfacs Bay, NW Mediterranean Sea)

Samples were collected during one annual cycle (April 2007–March 2008) at Alfacs Bay (NW Mediterranean Sea) central station in order to assess the influence of organic nutrients in the growth of the microalgae assemblage, with special reference to Pseudo-nitzschia spp. This potentially toxic diatom forms natural and recurrent blooms in the study area. To assess further the relationship between Pseudo-nitzschia spp. and nutrients an enrichment experiment with high molecular weight dissolved organic matter (HMWDOM) was performed with field samples obtained during a Pseudo-nitzschia spp. bloom. HMWDOM was extracted from water collected at Alfacs Bay. Five bioassays were prepared: N + P (seawater with addition of nitrate and phosphate), DOM (addition of HMWDOM), (−N + P) + DOM (nitrogen deficient, with addition of phosphate and HMWDOM), (N + P) + DOM (addition of nitrate, phosphate and HMWDOM), seawater control (without added nutrients), and B + DOM (control of bacteria, without microalgae). The experiment was run in batch mode over 4 days. Results from the field study revealed that the concentrations of organic nutrients mostly surpassed the inorganic pool. Pseudo-nitzschia spp. was the most frequent and abundant taxa of the microalgae community. The micro-planktonic assemblage was arranged according to a seasonal factor (ANOSIM and cluster analysis). DON, nitrate and silicate were the most important abiotic parameters contributing to the dissimilarities between seasons (SIMPER analysis) and thereby potentially influencing the seasonal distribution of microalgae in the representative station. In the experimental investigation, Pseudo-nitzschia cells increased by the end of the experiment in the DOM bioassay but no respective increase was observed for chlorophyll a. This could point to an acquisition of nutrients through the DOM fraction that would conjointly reduce the need of chlorophyll a. The data obtained suggest that organic nutrients may exert an important role in the development of microalgae, including Pseudo-nitzschia spp., in the selected location.     

Inter-annual variability in phytoplankton summer blooms in the freshwater tidal reaches of the Schelde estuary (Belgium)

The inter-annual variability in phytoplankton summer blooms in the upper reaches of the Schelde estuary was investigated between 1996 and 2005 by monthly sampling at 10 stations. The large inter-annual variations of the chlorophyll a concentration in the freshwater tidal reaches were independent from variations in chlorophyll a in the tributary river Schelde. Summer mean chlorophyll a concentrations were significantly negatively correlated with flushing rate (Spearman correlation: r = −0.67, p = 0.05, n = 9) but not with temperature, irradiance and suspended particulate matter or dissolved silica (DSi) concentrations. During dry summers, low flushing rates permitted the development of dense phytoplankton populations in the upper part of the estuary, while during wet summers high flushing rates prevented the development of dense phytoplankton blooms. Flushing rate was also found to be important for the phytoplankton community composition. At low flushing rates, the community was dominated by diatoms that developed within the upper estuary. At high flushing rates, chlorophytes imported from the tributary river Schelde became more important in the phytoplankton community. The position of the chlorophyll a maximum shifted from the head of the estuary when flushing rates were low, to more downstream when flushing rates were high. Although DSi concentrations tended to be lower during years of high phytoplankton (mainly diatom) biomass, the relation with flushing rate was not significant.     

Chlorophyll a Biomass of Netplankton in Surface Waters of the Northern North Pacific Ocean and the Adjacent Seas from Summer to Autumn

Chlorophyll a concentrations of net (retained on 30 m mesh net) and total plankton in surface waters were determined along cruise tracks in an area of the northern North Pacific Ocean and the adjacent Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska from summer to autumn. Total chlorophyll a concentrations were high with a great areal and temporal variations in the western northern North Pacific compared to the eastern part. Chlorophyll a concentrations of netplankton varied from 0.001 to 0.230 g chl a l^–1 (average, 0.029 ± 0.040 g chl a l^–1), and showed a positive relation but a weak regression coefficient (r ² = 0.551) against the "average total chlorophyll a" (average of total chlorophyll a at the beginning and at the end during sampling of netplankton). However there were several data points showing high "average total chlorophyll a" but low netplankton and vice versa. Average percentage share of netplankton in the total chlorophyll a was estimated to be as large as 4.26%.     

Environmental factors influencing the biodeposition of the suspension feeding bivalve Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas): Comparison of brackish and freshwater populations

Invasive suspension feeders have been particularly successful in shallow eutrophic estuarine and freshwater ecosystems. The impact of an invasive species is strong under favourable conditions. However, suboptimal feeding conditions may significantly reduce the impact to ambient environment. The invasive bivalve Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas) is able to colonize both fresh and brackish waterbodies. In an in situ experiment the seasonal variability in the biodeposition of D. polymorpha from fresh and brackish water populations was quantified at different temperature, salinity and chlorophyll a (Chl a) regimes. Salinity fluctuations in brackish water areas, temperature and water Chl a content were all important factors in the model of mussels' feeding. The results indicated that D. polymorpha fed significantly more in fresh than in brackish water. Mussels acclimated more easily to acute transfer from brackish to freshwater than vice versa. The biodeposition of zebra mussels increased with temperature and water Chl a content but these effects were less straightforward than that of salinity. The results suggest that the impact of D. polymorpha on recipient ecosystem is more pronounced in fresh than in brackish water environments.     

防污剂Irgarol 1051对三角褐指藻生长及生理特性的影响

为研究防污剂Irgarol 1051对微藻生长及生理生化特性的影响,以三角褐指藻(Phaeodactylum tricornutum)为材料,分析了Irgarol 1051对P.tricornutum生长、叶绿素a含量、可溶性蛋白质含量、超氧化物歧化酶(Superoxide dismutase,SOD)活力及丙二醛(Malondialdehyde,MDA)含量等的影响。结果表明:Irgarol 1051可抑制P.tricornutum的生长,并诱导其产生耐受性;P.tricornutum中叶绿素a、可溶性蛋白质含量及SOD酶活力等均随Irgarol 1051质量浓度的增加而升高,以维持其生长和生理状态;随着Irgarol 1051质量浓度的升高,藻细胞中MDA含量显著增加,表明细胞中活性氧自由基(Reactive oxygen species,ROS)过量积累,这将破坏藻细胞的膜结构与功能。研究结果将为探讨Irgarol1051对微藻的效应机制及其环境风险评价提供数据资料和科学依据。     

Netplankton Chlorophyll Biomass along 175°E in the Pacific Ocean

An analysis is presented of data on chlorophyll a concentrations of the total and the netplankton (>10 μm), determined either in April to June or in August to September from 48°N to 15°S along 175°E in the Pacific Ocean during 6 years by the NOPACCS (Northwest Pacific Carbon Cycle Study). Particular attention was given to the variability of absolute concentrations of the netplankton chlorophyll a and their percentage shares of the total chlorophyll a concentration. Below 0.2 μg l⁻¹ of surface total chlorophyll a, the netplankton chlorophyll a showed low percentage shares (such as 12.7% on average) with a large variation, but above 0.2 μg l⁻¹ it was 35.9% on average with less variation, showing an accelerated increase at high total chlorophyll a concentrations. High netplankton chlorophyll a concentrations in surface waters were observed at high latitudes, in waters having high chlorophyll a concentrations at sub-surface depth, and in equatorial upwelling. The percentage shares of netplankton in the total chlorophyll a in the euphotic zone were 8.5% and 25.9% above and below 0.2 μg l⁻¹, respectively, although the data points scattered over a wide range (from 7.2% to 53.8%) depending on differences in water masses, depths and seasons. High chlorophyll a concentrations and high percentage shares of netplankton corresponded to high ambient nitrate plus nitrite concentrations. Integrated netplankton chlorophyll a concentrations in the euphotic zone varied from 0.7 to 19.5 mg m⁻² in waters below 0.2 μg l⁻¹ of surface total chlorophyll a, and from 2.0 to 29.5 mg m⁻² above 0.2 μg l⁻¹, and the percentage shares of netplankton for the former were 7.4% on average and 23.7% for the latter. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Benthic microalgal biomass in sediments of Onslow Bay, North Carolina

Sediment samples were collected at stations along cross-shelf transects in Onslow Bay, North Carolina, during two cruises in 1984 and 1985. Station depths ranged from 11 to 285 m. Sediment chlorophyll a concentrations ranged from 0·06 to 1·87 μg g⁻¹ sediment (mean, 0·55), or 2·6–62·0 mg m². Areal sediment chlorophyll a exceeded water column chlorophyll a a at 16 of 17 stations, especially at inshore and mid-shelf stations. Sediment ATP concentrations ranged from 0 to 0·67 μg g⁻¹ sediment (mean, 0·28). Values for both biomass indicators were lowest in the depth range including the shelf break (50–99 m). Organic carbon contents of the sediments were uniformly low across the shelf, averaging 0·159% by weight. Photography of the sediments revealed extensive patches of microalgae on the sediment surface.Our data suggest that viable benthic microalgae occur across the North Carolina continental shelf. The distribution of benthic macroflora on the North Carolina shelf indicates that sufficient light and nutrients are available to support primary production out to the shelf break. Frequent storm-induced perturbations do not favour settling of phytoplankton, an alternative explanation for the presence of microalgal pigments in the sediments. Therefore, we propose that a distinct, productive benthic microflora exists across the North Carolina continental shelf.
