Foliar application of selenium (Se) is an effective method for biofortification in rice, to ensure that sufficient Se is supplied by the crop to maintain human health. In order to improve Se concentration in rice and meet the daily recommended intake for humans, a foliar Se fertilizer was applied in five regions of Liaoning and Jilin provinces, China, and its effects on rice quality, leaf morphology, and wax characteristics were assessed in field tests. The effects of alkyl polyglycosides (APG) in the Se fertilizer were evaluated, and epicuticular waxes were measured to analyze the effects of the fertilizer on plant water status. The Se fertilizer effectively enhanced organic Se levels in rice (p < 0.05), ranging from 599.8 to 2002.0 mu g kg(-1). An intake of 50 g d(-1) of Se-enriched rice can meet nutritional requirements, with total Se intake ranging from 30.0 to 100.1 mu g d(-1). The Se fertilizer increased the protein content and decreased the proportion of chalky rice (p < 0.05). APG increased the wettability of Se fertilizer on the surface of leaves, so Se could be better absorbed into the leaves and accumulate in rice. The Se fertilizer increased the epicuticular wax so that moisture loss from leaves was reduced. Mean cuticular wax thicknesses were 2.36 and 2.25 mu g cm(2) in Daohuaxiang and Wuyou 4, respectively. These results suggest a link between the quality of rice and epicuticular wax thickness, and the foliar application of Se fertilizer shows promise for increasing Se content in rice grown in Se deficient soils.
Biofortification of selenium (Se) has emerged as an important strategy to enhance Se content in alfalfa, and sulfur (S) can be found to reduce the toxicity of Se to several crops. However, it is not clear if this interaction between Se(IV) and S enhances Se accumulation in alfalfa. In this study, alfalfa was grown on experimental pots and treated with foliar nutrient solutions containing 0–40 mg L−1 sodium selenite (Se(IV)), both with and without supplementary S. Results showed that foliar application of 10 mg L−1 Se(IV) with a S/Se(IV) ratio of 46.83 significantly increased shoot length (28.6
The foliar application of selenium (Se) is an effective method for biofortification of Se in crop grains in order to provide sufficient Se for human health. As a staple food in China, the foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.), which had been Se biofortification, would be helpful to overcome Se deficiency in the diet. The Se fertilizer and its application technology are vital for reducing environmental risk while enriching selenium. Hence, the Se-rich nutrient solution developed by ourselves was used, and the effect of its amount and growth stage applied on the accumulation of Se in grains of foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) was studied in the present study. The results were as follows: (1) the Se concentration in grains increased with the Se application rate increasing, and the highest Se concentration in grains was 1.83 mg kg-1 at the sprayed concentration of 61.5 gSe hm-2; (2) the accumulation of Se sprayed in the grain-filling stage was 1.3–1.6 times higher than that in the joint stage; and (3) the organ damage could be found under low Se/S ratio, which happened in the rice leaves when the Se rate was higher than 76.875 gSe m-2 with the low sulfate application compared with the formulation. This Se-rich nutrient solution could be used to produce the Se-rich millet grains and foliar application in the reproductive stage to produce qualified Se-rich millet.

Magnesite is the world's most important source material for magnesia refractory production, and Haicheng City in Liaoning Province, China has been called "the magnesium capital of the world." However, magnesite mining in these areas has caused serious environmental problems. Field investigations have shown that the soil profile of many sites in the mining region are contaminated by magnesium, and the magnesium-enriched crusts that have formed on the soil surface have affected ecologically important soil functions, particularly reduced water penetration rate. Laboratory experiment revealed that anionic polyacrylamide and calcium dihydrogen phosphate can be used to improve soil condition, and have positive effects on soil function. The findings of this study are of significance in the magnetite mining areas, providing clear options for the remediation of soils that should be carried out immediately.
The effects of three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi isolates on Cd uptake and accumulation by maize ( Zea mays L.) were investigated in a planted pot experiment. Plants were inoculated with Glomus intraradices , Glomus constrictum and Glomus mosseae at three different Cd concentrations. The results showed that root colonization increased with Cd addition during a 6-week growth period, however, the fungal density on roots decreased after 9-week growth in the treatments with G. constrictum and G. mosseae isolates. The percentage of mycorrhizal colonization by the three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi isolates ranged from 22.7 to 72.3 %. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculations decreased maize biomass especially during the first 6-week growth before Cd addition, and this inhibitory effect was less significant with Cd addition and growth time. Cd concentrations and uptake in maize plants increased with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi colonization at low Cd concentration (0.02 mM): nonetheless, it decreased at high Cd concentration (0.20 mM) after 6-week growth period. Inoculation with G. constrictum isolates enhanced the root Cd concentrations and uptake, but G. mosseae isolates showed the opposite results at high Cd concentration level after 9 week growth period, as compared to non-mycorrhizal plants. In conclusion, maize plants inoculated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi were less sensitive to Cd stress than uninoculated plants. G. constrictum isolates enhanced Cd phytostabilization and G. mosseae isolates reduced Cd uptake in maize ( Z. mays L.).

Indigenous Mycobacterium communities play an important role in the degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), but little is known about Mycobacterium distribution in situ at PAH-contaminated sites. In this study, the diversity and distribution of Mycobacterium communities were investigated in sediments and soils at sites upstream, midstream, and downstream of an oil-sewage irrigation channel, using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). The results show that heavy PAH contamination in upstream sites negatively affected Mycobacterium community diversity compared with midstream and downstream sites in all 3 sample types (sediments, corn field soils, and rice field soils). There was a correlation between the distribution of Mycobacterium communities and PAH contamination, as indicated by canonical correspondence analysis. Mycobacterium diversity and distribution was found to vary between the 3 sample types.

DNA cytosine methylation is a central epigenetic modification that has essential roles in the control of many critically important biological processes,including cell proliferation,differentiation,development,genomic imprinting and regulation of gene expression.With progresses in study on DNA methylation,detection techniques of DNA methylation have been developed to meet requirements of various researches.This article has established an improved bisulfite sequencing technique for analysis of MutL-homologue 1(MLH1) promoter methylation level of mismatch repair gene in Arabidopsis thaliana.After the genomic DNA in Arabidopsis thaliana was digested,purified,and then modified with bisulfite liquid,the PCR products were cloned into the pEASY-T1 vector.15 positive clones were randomly selected from each sample and then sequenced.The results showed that compared with the traditional method of methylation analysis,the improved method modified the digested DNA completely,reduced the modification time greatly,and improved the specificity,stability and repeatability of the PCR products.MLH1 promoter methylation level was 27.3% instead of 45.6%.The improved bisulfite sequencing technique avoided misidentification at non-methylated sites,and would provide a better means of research for analysis of DNA methylation in plant.
By using semi-quantitative reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) , and with 18S rRNA as the internal standard gene,this paper studied the effects of copper (Cu) stress on the expression of DNA mismatch repair genes ( MLH1,MSH2,MSH3,MSH6,and MSH7) in Arabidopsis thaliana plantlets,and,in combining with the morphological and physiological indices of the plantlets,the sensitive biomarkers of Cu stress were selected. The results showed that under Cu stress ( 0. 5,1. 0,and 2. 0 mg·L -1 ) for 10 days,no significant changes were observed in the seed germination percentage,shoot fresh mass,and chlorophyll content,but the root length was obviously inhibited,and the shoot total soluble protein content and mismatch repair genes expression decreased with increasing concentration of Cu. An obvious doseeffect relationship existed between the Cu concentration and the above-mentioned indicators of A. thaliana plantlets. The results indicated that the change trend of the shoot total soluble protein content was similar to that of the mismatch repair genes expression,which were all sensitive to the Cu stress and could be served as the potential and useful biomarkers for the detection of genotoxic effects of Cu pollution on plants.
Grid operating is transforming from meticulous management to lean management at present, however, it is the lack of an effective tool for tracking power purchase cost variation and correlation analysis that has seriously affected the flexibility and timeliness of electricity trading. To address this deficiency, timely and dynamic access to the current moment of electricity unit price analysis and simplify the electrovalence changes so that it will meet the demand for lean management of the grid, this paper proposed a model for power purchase price and cost analysis based on gateway electricity price information, and used the total differential characteristics to analyze the model 's rationality and sensitivity. Through the trial of on the platform of power gateway metering information management for Liaoning power network has showed that the model can effectively enhance the controllability of the company 's management, controllability, the ability to control, thus also proving the usefulness of the model.
This work was initiated to study the competitive sorption effect on phenanthrene and pyrene extraction during the aging process in phaeozem, burozem, aquorizem and krasnozem with or without freeze-thawing cycles. Soils contaminated with 100 μg g(-1) phenanthrene and 100 μg g(-1) pyrene separately and combined were extracted by 10 g L(-1) surfactant SDBS solution at various times over 120 days. The competitive effect on extraction efficiency may either increase or decrease with increasing soil contact time, depending on the properties of the accessible adsorption sites. The increased difference in extraction efficiency change has a positive correlation with soil organic carbon content. The change in extraction efficiency between no freeze-thawing and freeze-thawing in soils contaminated with both hydrocarbons was smaller compared to it with phenanthrene or pyrene alone due to the similar roles freeze-thawing and competitive effect plays, causing contaminant molecules to occupy the high-energy adsorption sites and expanding the glassy domain of soil organic matter. No general conclusions were obtained among the frequency of freeze-thawing cycles, soil moisture and extraction efficiency. This study validates our previous conceptual freeze-thawing model and is expected to help the development of the environmental fate and risk assessment.
This work was initiated to study the concentration effects on phenanthrene and pyrene extraction during process of aging in phaeozem and burozem with or without freeze–thawing cycles. 1, 10, and 100 μg g− 1 phenanthrene and pyrene contaminated soils were extracted by 10,000 mg L− 1 surfactant SDBS at various times. The extraction amount decreased with increasing contact time. Aging process could be divided into two stages: an initially rapid and then a slow sorption period. The amount extraction of 1 μg g− 1 pyrene in phaeozem was higher at the initial sorption stage. The time for 100 μg g− 1 phenanthrene and pyrene extraction efficiency to reach equilibrium in both soils were shorter than 1 and 10 μg g− 1. Changes in extraction efficiency rate caused by slow sorption were affected by contact time, physicochemical properties of soils and chemicals and the applied concentration of chemicals. For 1 and 10 μg g− 1 phenanthrene and pyrene contaminated soils, freeze–thawing cycle increased the extraction efficiency at the initial 1st and 8th days. The extraction efficiency with no freeze–thawing cycle was higher than that with freeze–thawing cycles at 30 and 120 days. A conceptual model was proposed to account for this process.
Mycobacterium spp. with the ability to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have attracted great attention. This study aims to isolate pyrene-degrading Mycobacterium spp. through direct plating and selective enrichment from sediment and paddy soil from several sites in Shenfu Wastewater Irrigation Area, and the diversity, catabolic genes and substrate utilization patterns of these pyrene-degrading Mycobacterium isolates was investigated. The Mycobacterium community dynamics was monitored during enrichment cultures by Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE) to determine whether the Mycobacterium sp. detected in DGGE gels was successfully recovered. The results showed that a total of 20 unique Mycobacterium isolates were collected including 3 strains from direct plating and 17 from enrichment cultures. In addition to pyrene, most of the isolates could also degrade phenanthrene and fluoranthene and contained nidA and nidA3 genes, and only half of isolated strains were found to possess the pdoA2 gene. DGGE results showed that the Mycobacterium community had a shift in diversity during enrichment process. phylogenetic analysis based on 16SrDNA sequences from bands excised from DGGE gels and from these isolates revealed that isolated Mycobacterium spp. were represented of bands excised from DGGE gels in a small proportion. This collection of isolates will be valuable in bioremediation of PAH-contaminated sites.
