水稻土中氮素对微生物固砷的扰动及效应机制

Mechanism and Environmental Effect on Nitrogen Addition to Microbial Process of Arsenic Immobilization in Flooding Paddy Soils

我国是世界上最大的水稻生产国,水稻生产在粮食安全方面起着重要的作用.现阶段,我国稻田土壤的砷污染问题表现突出.稻田长期处于淹水的缺氧环境下,微生物在厌氧条件下介导的砷形态转化速率和程度均强于化学过程.理解和认知微生物对稻田土壤中砷固定的关键过程及作用机制将为开展稻田砷污染的有效治理提供理论依据.在综合分析了砷在稻田土壤中的迁移及其影响因素的基础上,主要综述了涉及淹水稻田土壤中微生物参与As(Ⅲ)固定两条重要途径:Fe(Ⅱ)氧化成矿耦合As(Ⅲ)固定(间接过程)与As(Ⅲ)直接氧化固定(直接过程).同时,就氮素在土壤的形态及分配对微生物参与砷固定的响应过程也展开系统性论述.其中,总结了参与微生物砷固定与氮素转化的关键基因表达及代谢机制;最后,归纳了砷污染稻田微生物修复技术的相关研究进展,并提出了初步展望.

China is one of the largest rice producers in the world, and rice production plays an important role in food security. Currently, arsenic pollution in paddy soils is one of most serious soil pollutions in China. Since paddy soils are maintained in a flooding anoxic condition for long periods, the rate and extent of arsenic transformation processes governed by microbial activities are stronger than that of chemical processes. Thus, understanding the key processes and relating mechanisms of microbial arsenic fixation in paddy soils will provide a theoretical basis for controlling arsenic pollution in paddy soils. In this study, based on a comprehensive analysis of arsenic migration in paddy soils and relating influencing factors, two important pathways relating to As(Ⅲ) fixation through microbial activities were illustrated: microbial Fe(Ⅱ) oxidation coupled with As(Ⅲ) fixation(indirect process) and direct fixation through microbial As(Ⅲ) oxidation(direct process). Additionally, the influences of speciation and the distribution of nitrogen in paddy soils to the processes of microbial arsenic fixations were discussed and by extension, the expressions of key genes and metabolic mechanisms relating to microbial arsenic fixation and nitrogen transformation. Finally, the recent advances in microbial remediation used to control arsenic pollution in paddy soils were summarized, and relating future perspectives targeting microbial remediation were proposed.
