“黑麦草-水稻”草田轮作系统的根际效应 V.意大利黑麦草(Lolium multiflorum)根茬腐解物中存在促水稻生长活性物质的证据

关于冬种黑麦草(Lolium multiflroum Lam.)使后作水稻增产的机理,以往的研究着重于冬种黑麦草对稻田土壤理化和生物学性状的改善方面。本研究旨在证明黑麦草根茬腐解物中存在促水稻生长活性物质的的假设。实验结果表明,黑麦草根茬腐解液可显著地促进水稻幼苗的生长,水稻的根、苗和植株的干物质质量分别比对照增加41.9%,42.6%和42.3%。腐解液的乙酸乙酯和正丁醇萃取物对水稻幼苗的生长也有显著的促进作用。对腐解液的有机成分进行初步分离,发现了4个具促水稻生长活性的洗脱组分。由此可以推断,黑麦草根茬腐解物中确实存在能刺激水稻生长的活性物质。

黑麦草(Lolium perenne)根际细菌多样性对Ni污染沉积物修复效果的响应

应用黑麦草(Lolium perenne)对某滨海城市南排污河的重金属污染沉积物——底泥进行植物修复,并结合变性梯度凝胶电泳(DGGE)分析了黑麦草根际土壤的重金属Ni含量和细菌多样性的关系。结果表明,黑麦草对Ni的修复效果较好,种植黑麦草后根际土壤Ni浓度降低了11.8%。根际土壤中Ni有效态含量与根际土壤pH值的变化呈较好的正相关关系,相关系数为0.9688。对根际土壤细菌多样性进行分析,重金属Ni含量变化能够影响土壤细菌的多样性,根际土壤细菌多样性随黑麦草的生长而不断演变,且与根际土壤中Ni浓度变化有密切联系。对DGGE电泳后回收的部分片段进行测序并建立了进化树,结果表明,测序片段与非培养方法得到的菌种的同源性较高,且其均在土壤或河道底泥的相关研究中被发现。不同时期细菌群体组成和Shan non指数随着修复时间而变化,并与细菌总数有正相关关系。

Evaluation of a cost effective technique for treating aquaculture water discharge using Lolium perenne Lam as a biofilter

Wastewater stabilization ponds generate low cost by-products that are useful for agriculture. The utilization of these by-products for soil amendment and as a source of nutrients for plants requires a high level of sanitation and stabilization of the organic matter, to maintain acceptable levels of soil, water and air quality. In this study, two aquaculture wastewater treatment systems; recirculating system and a floating plant bed system were designed to improve the quality of irrigation water in local communities with low income. In both systems the grass species Lolium perenne Lam was used as a plant biofilter while vegetable specie Amaranthus viridis was used to evaluate the performance of the system and the suitability of the phyto-treated water for irrigation. It was found that the harmful material removal rate for recirculating system was 88.9% for TAN （total ammonia nitrogen）, 90% for NO2--N, 64.8% for NO3--N while for floating plant bed system 82.7% for TAN, 82% for NO2--N and 60.5% for NO3--N. Comparative analysis of the efficiency of waste element removal between the two systems revealed that both systems performed well, however, plant growth was not robust for floating plant bed system while recirculating system is energy consuming. Although both systems did not attain sufficient levels of TN （total nitrogen） and TP （total phosphorus） load reduction, the treatment with L. perenne remarkably improved the irrigation water quality. A. viridis plants irrigated with the phyto-treated discharge water had lesser concentrations of heavy metals in their tissues compared to those irrigated with untreated discharge. The control plants irrigated with untreated discharge were also found to be highly lignified with few stems and small leaves.

Phytoremediation of Heavy Metal Pollution in Urban Sewage River Sediment by Lolium perenne

[Objective] The aim was to restore heavy metal pollution of urban sewage river sediment by using Lolium perenne.[Method] Through cultivation test,the phytoremediation of heavy metal pollution in river sediment by L.perenne was analyzed from the aspects of removal effect,optimal removal time and the changes of sucrase activity,urease activity and microbe quantity.[Result] After planting L.perenne for three months,Ni content in sediment was basically stable,while the removal effect of Cr and Mn in sediment was optimal,and the removal rate of Cr reached the maximum value (57.1%).After 4-5 months,sucrase and urease activity were 4.59 and 10.34 times the previous activity respectively.In addition,the quantity of bacteria and fungi was 2-3 times the previous quantity after 3-4 months.In a word,L.perenne had obvious effects on the removing of heavy metal,improvement of enzyme activity and microbe quantity in polluted river sediment,and the optimal planting time of L.perenne was four months.[Conclusion] The study could provide theoretical foundations for the control of polluted sediment in river.

Transfer DREB into Lolium perenne L. to improve its drought tolerance

A method of Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated transformation for perennial ryegrass was developed using the calli of ryegrass derived from mature enrbryos. The calli were inoculated with a disarmed A. tumefaciens strain EHA105 harboring binary vector p2328. Vector p2328 contained transcription factor DREB1B and neomycin phosphotransferase （npt H） genes which were driven by promoters of rd29B and CaMV35S, respectively. The inoculated calli were selected on paromomycin- or kanamycin-containing media till the established plants being transferred to soil. Six tmnsgenic plants with DREB1B had been obtained from perennial ryegrass strain Tove. PCR and Southern-blotting showed that npt Ⅱ and DREBIB genes were integrated in perennial ryegrass genome. Stress treatment confirmed that transgenic plants with higher drought tolerance were obtained.

Italian Ryegrass (Lolium perenne ssp. multiflorum) and Corn (Zea mays) Competition

Italian ryegrass is an annual/biennial grass that is typically used as a pasture crop or a cover crop along roadsides, rights-of-way, and industrial areas. Glyphosate-resistant (GR) Italian ryegrass populations have been documented around the world, mostly in orchard and vineyard situations. The first evidence of evolved GR Italian ryegrass in row/agronomic crops was reported from Washington County, Mississippi in 2005. GR Italian ryegrass populations can jeopardize preplant burndown options in reduced-tillage crop production systems, thereby, delaying planting operations. The effects of competition of Italian ryegrass on crop growth and yield are poorly understood. A field study was conducted in the 2012 growing season and repeated in the 2013 growing season. GR and susceptible (GS) Italian ryegrass populations were established in the greenhouse and transplanted in prepared corn row beds in the fall of 2011 and 2012 at 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 plants·meter> of crop row. Italian ryegrass plants overwintered and developed over the following spring-summer. Glyphosate was applied at 1.26 kg·ae/ha (1.5× of labeled rate) in the spring to burndown the Italian ryegrass plants and corn was planted into the ryegrass residue 2 - 3 wk later. Current corn production practices were followed. Corn density (early and late season), height (early season), and yield and Italian ryegrass biomass (early-mid season) measurements were recorded during both years. Corn height was greater in 2012 than that in 2013 at comparable stages of the growing season, due to a cooler and wetter early season in 2013 than that in 2012. Averaged across weed densities, corn density (both early and late season) and yield were higher in the GS than those in the GR population, but Italian ryegrass biomass was similar for both populations. Averaged across Italian ryegrass populations, corn density (both early and late season), and yield were inversely proportional to Italian ryegrass density. In summary, Italian ryegrass significantly reduced corn density and yield and reduction was greater with the GR than that with the GS population. Studies are underway to study inter population competition in Italian ryegrass and investigate allelopathic effects of Italian ryegrass on selected crops.

Heterologous expression of Lolium perenne antifreeze protein confers chilling tolerance in tomato

Antifreeze proteins（AFP） are produced by certain plants, animals, fungi and bacteria that enable them to survive upon extremely low temperature. Perennial rye grass, Lolium perenne, was reported to possess AFP which protects them from cold environments. In the present investigation, we isolated AFP gene from L. perenne and expressed it in tomato plants to elucidate its role upon chilling stress. The T1 transgenic tomato lines were selected and subjected to molecular, biochemical and physiological analyses. Stable integration and transcription of Lp AFP in transgenic tomato plants was confirmed by Southern blot hybridization and RT-PCR, respectively. Physiological analyses under chilling conditions showed that the chilling stress induced physiological damage in wild type（WT） plants, while the transgenic plants remained healthy. Total sugar content increased gradually in both WT and transgenic plants throughout the chilling treatment. Interestingly, transgenic plants exhibited remarkable alterations in terms of relative water content（RWC） and electrolyte leakage index（ELI） than those of WT. RWC increased significantly by 3-fold and the electrolyte leakage was reduced by 2.6-fold in transgenic plants comparing with WT. Overall, this report proved that Lp AFP gene confers chilling tolerance in transgenic tomato plants and it could be a potential candidate to extrapolate the chilling tolerance on other chilling-sensitive food crops.

Seed Size Effects on Early Seedling Growth and Response to Applied Nitrogen in Annual Ryegrass (<i>Lolium multiflorum</i>L.)

Use of individual plants as experimental units may be necessary when resources are limited, but inter-plant variation risks obscuring differences among treatments. Experiments were undertaken to measure the effects of seed size on seedling size and response to applied nitrogen of annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L.) harvested six or nine weeks after emergence. In two series of experiments, shoot and root dry weights of seedlings increased respectively at means of 53 - 61 and 29 - 30 mg·mg-1 increase in mean seed weight. Between the largest and smallest seed sizes used in this study, there was 83% difference in shoot weight at harvest six weeks after emergence and 22% difference with harvest nine weeks after emergence. Nitrogen (N) application, in comparison, increased shoot dry weights by averages of 69% and 77% with harvests at six or nine weeks, respectively. Dry mass response to N application was similar across seed size categories in shoots or roots. A mean 30% of total seedling-N was retained in roots. Nitrogen utilization efficiency for shoot growth (increase in shoot growth per unit increase in shoot N capture) ranged from 64 mg·mg-1 with harvest six weeks after emergence to 114 mg·mg-1 with harvest at nine weeks after emergence. Delay in seedling harvest from six to nine weeks post-emergence and use of closely-graded seed can reduce variation in individual seedling size and contribute to reduction in random variation in small-scale experiments.

Aquaculture Solids Management Using A Combination of Sand/Gravel or Unwoven Fabric Bed With Lolium perenne Lam as A Plant Biofilter

Objective This work is an evaluation of the efficiency of a sand-gravel or unwoven fabric bed system and Lolium perenne Lam as plant biofilter in the reduction of solids and nutrients removal from aquaculture discharge water. Methods The fzrst step consisted of the collection of wastewater in the tank and the distribution at three different hydraulic loading regimes （0.5, 1, 1.5 L/hour） to the different experimental systems. The second step was to evaluate the performance of the different systems. The fzrst system consisted of a bucket filled with a substrate of sand/gravel （20 cm in depth）, on the bottom of which was a 80 mesh/inch2 of nylon （S1）; the second was similar, but was planted with Lolium perenne lam （S2）; the third was planted with a grass plate consisting of 7 layers of unwoven fabric planted with L. perenne （S3）. Results The second system showed the best performance in reducing solids as well as in nutrients （TN, TP, and COD） reduction. The removal rates for TS, TN, and TP were negatively correlated with the loading regimes, with 0.5 L/hour being the most efficient and thus taken as the reference. Conclusions Solids management using a sand/gravel substrate as bed culture and Lolium perenne L. as plant biofilter has proved to be an efficient technique for solids reduction with low operating cost. This grass plays an important role in wastewater eco-treatment by absorbing dissolved pollutants （TAN） as nutrients for its growth.

热锻炼对高羊茅(Festuca arundinacea)和多年生黑麦草(Lolium perenne)抗高温能力的影响

夏季高温胁迫已成为限制冷季型草坪草生长和发育的一个主要问题。以两种耐热性不同的冷季型草坪草高羊茅和多年生黑麦草(前者较耐热)为材料,经过3d 30℃的热锻炼预处理后,分别在38、42、46℃的高温下处理14h。在这些高温条件下,研究了经过热锻炼预处理的高羊茅和多年生黑麦草叶片膜脂过氧化、抗氧化剂含量以及叶绿体超微结构的变化。结果表明:(1)热锻炼提高了高羊茅和多年生黑麦草的耐热性,显著缓减了高温条件下两种草坪草叶片膜脂过氧化程度的加剧,降低了叶片过氧化氢(H2O2)和超氧阴离子(O2.-)的产生速率。(2)高温条件下,热锻炼使高羊茅和多年生黑麦草叶片中抗氧化剂抗坏血酸(AsA)和谷胱甘肽(GSH)的含量下降程度有所缓减。(3)热锻炼减轻了高温胁迫对高羊茅和多年生黑麦草叶片叶绿体超微结构的损伤。这些结果说明热锻炼能够减轻高温对草坪草叶绿体的伤害可能与其在高温胁迫下和对照相比具有较高的抗氧化剂含量有关,这也可能是冷季型草坪草对高温的适应机制之一。

Effects of Nitrogen Fertilization on Some Turfgrass Characteristics of Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.)

The paper aimed to study the effects of nitrogen fertilization on the yield and some plant characteristics of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). The study was conducted at Agricultural Research and Application Center of the Faculty of Agriculture in Igdir University in 2013. In the experiment, eight levels of fertilizers: 0, 10.0, 20.0, 30.0, 40.0, 50.0, 60.0 and 70.0 kg N/ha per month were applied in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) during the sixth growing season. A randomized complete block with three replications was used as the experimental design. Nitrogen application affected plant height, green grass yield, plant covering rate, canopy color and turfgrass quality values of perennial ryegrass positively. In both monthly and as the average of nitrogen application, times of application (spring, summer and fall) caused the most uniform turfgrass quality and establishment. Results indicated that although a significant impact was on the character investigated, such as the leaf length, green grass yield, plant cover ratio, canopy color and turfgrass quality, the doses of nitrogen fertilizer have created close to each other in groups. In the stand point of view of all characters, N1, N2 and N3 were located in first group, N4 and N5 in the second group, N6 and N7 in the third group, expect for control (N0). It can be concluded that 40.0-50.0 kg N/ha per month may be more suitable to be used in ryegrass production in the landscape.

Multiple Resistance to Acetyl Coenzyme A Carboxylase and Acetolactate Synthase Inhibiting Herbicides in Tunisian Ryegrass Populations （Lolium rigidum）

The good understanding of the mechanisms of resistance to herbicides in weeds is a necessity to implement sustainable weed management strategies. Here, a study was conducted to characterize the molecular bases of resistance to acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase （ACCase） and acetolactate synthase （ALS） inhibiting herbicides in Lolium rigidum populations from Tunisia. Nine Lolium rigidum （ryegrass） populations collected in wheat fields from Northern Tunisia were investigated for their resistance to two ACCase-inhibiting herbicides and an ALS-inhibiting herbicide. All populations were tested in the greenhouse in pots using the commercial dose to determine resistance status. Survival plants were also tested for the presence of two ACCase （L 1781 and N2041） and two ALS （P197 and W574） mutant resistant alleles using molecular markers. Resistance to ACCase-inhibiting herbicides was found in all tested populations. Comparison of the results from herbicide sensitivity bioassays with genotyping indicated that more than 80% of the plants resistant to ACC-inhibiting herbicides would be resistant via increased herbicide metabolism. However, ALS-inhibiting herbicides are still more or less controlling ACCase resistant populations, so indicating that the selection process of resistance is ongoing. Target-site resistance appears to be the major mechanism for these early cases of ALS inhibitor resistance. This study reported the first case of resistance to ALS-inhibiting herbicides in ryegrass in Tunisia, and investigated the molecular bases of this resistance. It establishes the clear importance of non target-site resistance to ACCase- and/or ALS-inhibiting herbicides.

Study on Sterilization Method of Endophytic Fungi in Tall Fescue(Festuca arundinacea)and Ryegrass(Lolium perenne)Seeds

[Objectives]This study was conducted to obtain the best solution for sterilizing tall fescue(Festuca arundinacea)and ryegrass(Lolium perenne)seeds by heating in a water bath for a short time.[Methods]The tall fescue and ryegrass seeds infected with endophytic fungi were sterilized by heating in a water bath to compare seed germination and initial growth of turfgrass seedlings under different treatment time.[Results]Sterilization in a 60℃water bath for 20 and 30 min both inhibited the germination of tall fescue and ryegrass seeds,while the 20 min treatment did not significantly affect the lengths of stems,leaves and roots of seedlings.The 20 min water bath sterilization treatment had no effects on the plant heights and biomass of the two turfgrass seedlings and the tiller number of ryegrass,but sterilization for 30 min significantly reduced the aboveground and total biomass of seedlings and the tiller number of ryegrass.[Conclusions]Sterilization in a water bath at 60℃ for 20 min achieved rapid sterilization in a short time,without significantly negatively affecting the growth of seedlings.

Genetic Structure of Tetraploid Italian and Westerwolds Ryegrasses （Lolium spp,） as Revealed by Enzyme and ISSR Polymorphism

The genetic variation of Italian ryegrass （Lolium multiflorum Lain.） and westerwolds ryegrass （L. westerwoldicum Breakw.） was investigated in eight tetraploid cultivars originated from Poland. The 337 individual seedlings, cultivated in uniform greenhouse conditions, were tested with horizontal gel electrophoresis according to five enzyme systems： diaforase （DIA）, superoxide dismutase （SOD）, glutamate oxalacetate transaminase （GOT）, peroxidise （PX） and phosphogluco isomerise （PGI）, which were used to array allelic diversity at five polymorphic loci. The estimation of genetic diversity in 64 plants of the same cultivars was studied using inter simple sequence repeats （ISSRs） as molecular marker. The genetic variation described by ISSR suggests that the polymorphism detected appears to be poorly informative at the taxonomic level. For statistical analysis, unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean （UPGMA） based dendrograms and minimum spanning trees were constructed using Nei＇s distance and Jaccard＇ s similarity coefficient.

Cu^2＋胁迫对黑麦草(Lolium perenne L.)去除富营养化水体中氮、磷效果的影响

为探讨不同浓度Cu2+胁迫对黑麦草去除富营养化水体中N、P营养盐效果的影响,采用小试培养的方法,研究了Cu2+存在条件下黑麦草对水体中N、P去除的动力学过程及黑麦草植株对不同浓度Cu2+胁迫的生态响应.结果表明,0.1~2.0 mg/LCu2+胁迫均降低了黑麦草对水中N、P营养盐的去除速率,其去除过程符合二阶动力学模型.黑麦草对水体中Cu2+亦有良好的去除作用,根部是积累重金属Cu的主要部位,其对Cu2+的吸收速率符合米氏动力学方程.较低浓度Cu2+(≤0.2 mg/L)胁迫对黑麦草去除N、P的效果影响不大,并且能促进黑麦草生物量的增加,而较高浓度Cu2+(≥0.5 mg/L)胁迫虽有促进根系数量增加的趋势,但明显抑制了黑麦草根伸长和叶片生长等作用,因而严重影响了黑麦草对水体中N、P的去除.
