铝对海洋固氮蓝藻Crocosphaera watsonii生长及固氮速率的影响

doi:10.11978/2016069

Abstract

Abstract:

Although a large amount of aluminum enters the ocean through atmospheric dust deposition every year, the effect of aluminum on marine phytoplankton is seldom examined. Few studies focused on the effects of aluminum on marine nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria, which play important roles in nitrogen and carbon cycling in the ocean. In this study, a unicellular marine nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Crocosphaera watsonii grew in Aquil medium without silicate and nitrogen by semi-continuous cultures. We studied the effect of aluminum (0, 0.2, 2 and 20 μmol•L^-1) on the growth rate and nitrogen fixation rate of Crocosphaera watsonii by using flow cytometry and ¹⁵N isotope tracer method. Results showed that aluminum inhibited the growth and nitrogen fixation of Crocosphaera watsonii. Results also showed that cell size, cellular pigments and photochemical efficiency of photosystem II (F_v/F_m) of Crocosphaera watsonii treated with aluminum were significantly decreased. These results demonstrate that aluminum has an inhibitory effect on the growth and nitrogen fixation of Crocosphaera watsonii under the condition of sufficient phosphate and trace nutrients.

Key words: aluminum, nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria, Crocosphaera watsonii, growth rate, nitrogen fixation
