Nitrogen (N) removal from saline wastewater has emerged as a key concern to safeguard environment. High salinity can impede the growth of bacteria responsible for nitrogen removal. The identification of salt-tolerant bacteria capable of nitrogen removal is thus important for wastewater treatment. In this study, a novel strain, Alcaligenes aquatilis DN-1, capable of aerobic-heterotrophic nitrogen removal (AHNR) was isolated from wastewater. The strain DN-1 showed 100 %, 99.97 %, and 85.24 % efficiencies for removing ammonium, nitrite, and nitrate, respectively. Particularly, strain DN-1 exhibited excellent ammonium removal efficiency under 0-6 % salinity. A maximum nitrogen removal rate of 98.92 % was achieved at NaCl concentration of 6 %. Results of transcriptomic analysis indicated that up-regulation of gdhA, gltB and gltD genes was observed, which were involved in the assimilation pathway of ammonium removal. Ammonium removal pathway from hypersaline wastewater by strain DN-1 was accomplished mainly through assimilation. Genes involved in synthesis of ectoine and 5-hydroxyectoine, i.e., ectA, ectB, ectC and ectD, showed significantly high levels of transcriptional expressions, indicating that strain DN-1 balanced osmotic pressure by accumulating ectoine and 5-hydroxyectoine to withstand salinity-induced osmoadaptation. Meanwhile, genes associated with oxidative stress (trxB, trxC, dsbA, dsbB, dsbC and dsbD) were also upregulated to some extent. Genes involved in osmoadaptation and oxidative stress cooperated with ammonium metabolism pathways to counteract salt stress. The study indicated that the isolatedstrain for was highly efficient in eliminating ammonium from wastewater. The findings further offered valuable insights into the adaptation mechanisms of Alcaligenes aquatilis DN-1 in salt wastewater.
In order to improve the digestibility of animal coarse feed, the fermentation conditions of lignin degrading enzyme production by Trametes hirsuta XYG422 were optimized by user of single factor and orthogonal experiments. Scutellaria residue was used as the substrate. The results showed that the optimized medium composition for solid fermentation of Trametes hirsuta XYG422 was as followed: Soluble starch ∶ ammonium sulfate 3∶1, 3 mmol/L Cu2+ and 1.8 mmol/L Mn2+. Under the conditions, manganese peroxidase activity reached 179.37 nmol/(min·g), laccase activity reached 41.68 U/g. The research has certain guiding significance for the production and application of Trametes hirsuta , and also provides novel opportunities to develop livestock feeds with improved fiber digestibility.
Cold stress is one of the major abiotic stresses that limits the growth and development of plants. Improving the cold tolerance of plants is essential to enhance crop productivity in the changing environment. OPEN STOMATA 1 (OST1), also known as sucrose non-fermenting 1 related protein kinases 2.6/2E (SnRK2.6/SnRK2E), has been reported to involved in cold stress response in plants. This interesting protein is confined to expressed in guard cells and vascular system. However, the detailed mechanism of how OST1 regulates cold stress, especially at the metabolomic level is largely unknown. In this study, metabolomic profiling of ost1 mutant and WT Arabidopsis plants under cold stress was investigated. The results showed that ost1-4 mutants displayed cold sensitive phenotypes compared with the WT plant, as evidenced by higher MDA content and electrolyte leakage and lower photosynthetic characteristics. Next, the metabolic changes between ost1-4 and WT plants in response to cold stress was analyzed by using the GC-TOF-MS system. The results showed that numbers of metabolites were identified to be related to OST1 regulated cold stress response. A large portion of the metabolites were carbohydrates and organic acids. The KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that the alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism, cyanoamino acid metabolism and citrate cycle (TCA cycle) were presumptive pathways that most related to OST1 regulated cold stress response. Gene expression such as AtGDHs, AtPPC1 and AtAK1 was also in line with the metabolic changes in the presumed pathways. Overall, this study provides fundamental knowledge for understanding the underlying metabolic mechanisms of OST1 mediated cold stress response in plants.

This study aimed to investigate the biodegradation of three distinct PAHs: Phenanthrene (Phe), Pyrene (Pyr), and Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) by using fermentation broth from T. hirsuta culture medium. The results revealed that 2,5-xylidine ameliorates laccase production in T. hirsuta fermentation medium. After 6 days of incubation, T. hirsuta zlh237 fermentation broth (6-day-FFB) showed a higher degradation rate for three PAHs than 11-day fermentation broth (11-day-FFB). Final Phe, Pyr, and BaP degradation rates of 6-day-FFB were 89.35%, 85.92%, and 89.45%, respectively, on the 5th day of incubation. The PAHs biodegradation rate of 6-day-FFB in natural soil samples were lower than in sterilized soil. The Phe, Pyr, and BaP degradation rates of 6-day-FFB were 54.49%, 46.76%, and 51.93% in sterilized soil samples, and 39.37%, 34.00%, 33.99% in natural soil samples, after 15 days incubation, respectively. The high-throughput sequencing analysis revealed that the 6-dayFFB altered the bacterial community structure and enhanced microbial biodiversity of contaminated soil. The PAHs-contaminated soils incubated with 6-day-FFB showed significant increase in well color development than the controls. Principal Component Analysis of Biolog data differentiated the effect of 6-day-FFB and sterilized 6-day-FFB on contaminated soils. It implied that T. hirsuta zlh237 restored the microbiological functioning of the PAHs contaminated soils.

In order to find a more efficient, economical, and environmentally friendly chemical fertilizer alternative, we have developed a new type of microbial fertilizer. The reported types of functional microorganisms in biofertilizers are mostly single and concentrated in nitrogen-fixing bacteria and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria. Here we evaluate the effect of the compound microbial fertilizer with several kinds of functional bacteria. A field experiment was conducted with five treatments (no-fertilization control, regular fertilization 600 kg ha−1, compound microbial fertilizer 750 kg ha−1, compound microbial fertilizer 900 kg ha−1, compound microbial fertilizer 1050 kg ha−1). The effects of the compound microbial fertilizer on wheat traits, grain yield, soil physical and chemical properties, and microbial community structure were investigated. The results showed that the compound microbial fertilizer as base fertilizer could not only enhance the contents of soil available phosphorus and available potassium but also enhance the grain yield markedly. The compound microbial fertilizer could affect the microbial community, and the change of the microbial community was more correlated with growth period of wheat. The results established that the compound microbial fertilizer which can reduce part of the amount of chemical fertilizer can enhance wheat yield and the recommended dose of the fertilizer is 750 kg ha−1 in the study area.

为实现玉米秸秆的田间快速分解,采用室内和室外盆栽试验方法对复合菌剂(黑曲霉Aspergillus niger(J4)、枯草芽孢杆菌Bacillus subtilis(A1)和毛栓孔菌Trametes hirsute(XYG422))促玉米秸秆分解效果进行分析,并研究复合菌剂对土壤养分及微生物功能多样性的影响.结果表明,先接种菌株A1和XYG422,间隔2 d后接种菌株J4对玉米秸秆中木质素、纤维素和半纤维素的降解效果优于3种菌株同时接种的处理.玉米秸秆接种复合菌剂40 d时,能显著提高玉米秸秆的降解率(35%)与对照相比提高了13%,但菌剂的不同接种剂量对玉米秸秆的降解差异不明显.施用复合菌剂后,土壤有效磷、速效钾和碱解氮含量增加,且随着培养时间的延长,其有效成分含量呈上升趋势.Biolog结果表明,施用复合菌剂的处理组在20 d和40 d时土壤微生物AWCD及Shannon、Simpson和McIntosh指数与对照(CK20和CK40)相比均有不同程度提高,但菌剂的不同接种剂量之间差异不明显.主成分分析表明,接种复合菌剂后土壤微生物的碳源利用情况有明显差异.对照组CK20和CK40碳源利用种类较少;T1和T2利用碳源较多,种类相似;T3和T4碳源利用种类最多,但利用种类存在一定差异.
In an effort to address public concerns of the long-term stability and ecological risk reduction of Cu and Cd in a farmland located at the Guixi, Jiangxi Province, China, containing approximate to 800mgkg(-1) Cu and 0.8mgkg(-1) Cd soil, were treated in situ by attapulgite, apatite, montmorillonite and lime at the rate: 10, 10, 10 and 4gkg(-1) soil, respectively. Field experiment consisted of 2x3-m plots arranged in a randomised complete block design with each treatment. Soil and plant samples were collected in sixth years post-treatments and analysed for Cu and Cd bioaccessibility, chemical fraction and Cu, Cd concentration in plant tissue. The results indicated that the apatite and lime treatments significantly reduced bioaccessible and exchangeable fractions Cu and Cd in the soil at sixth years post the treatments. Cu and Cd concentration in plant tissue was positively related to the bioaccessibility of Cu and Cd. The treatment used 10g apatite kg(-1) soil appeared to be most effective for overall risk reduction. The Cu and Cd stabilisation and risk reduction by the apatite treatments were accomplished by the induced transformation of labile Cu and Cu species to relatively insoluble forms. This study illustrated that in situ Cu and Cd stabilisation by apatite would be long-term and ecologically safe, which could safeguard human health and ecosystem from Cu and Cd contamination in mining areas.
A pot experiment was set up to test the remediation effects in a Cu contaminated soil by applying of lime(SH1, SH2 and SH3, dosages of 0.1%, 0.2%and 0.4%, respectively)and ryegrass(Secale cereale), according to the determination of growth and Cu accumula-tion of ryegrass, transformation of Cu speciation in soil, and soil microbial community. The results showed that lime significantly increased biomass and Cu accumulation of ryegrass and soil pH, but decreased Cu concentration of aboveground and root of ryegrass. Compared to control, SH1, SH2 and SH3 decreased exchangeable Cu by 58.47%, 87.51% and 74.54%, while increased carbonate bound Cu to 1.36, 1.93 and 1.56 times than control, respectively. The Biolog analysis at 72 h showed that lime had the ability to increase AWCD(average well color development), S(substrate richness), Shannon's, Simpson, and McIntosh diversity index in the descending order of SH2, SH3, SH1 and CK. Lime changed the carbon source utilization patterns of soil microbial communities obviously. SH2 had the highest level of the car-bon source utilization. In conclusion, combining lime of dosage of 0.2%with ryegrass could remediate the Cu contaminated soil.
