Abstract
Intercropping with hyperaccumulators/accumulators is a promising alternative to enhance phytoextraction of heavy metal(loid)s in contaminated soil. In this research, a pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the influences of intercropping As hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata L. with Cd hyperaccumulator Sedum alfredii Hance or accumulator Hylotelephium spectabile (Boreau) H. Ohba on the plant growth, As and Cd phytoextraction, and rhizosphere bacterial microbiota. The results indicated that intercropping can promote the growth of plants. The total biomass of P. vittata, S. alfredii, and H. spectabile in intercropping systems was improved by 19.9-34.1%, 16.8%, and 11.5%, respectively, in comparison with corresponding plant monoculture. The As content in rhizoid and frond of P. vittata when intercropped with S. alfredii was significantly increased by 28.3% and 19.0% (P < 0.05), respectively, as compared with P. vittata monoculture, and this treatment acquired the maximum As and Cd accumulation with 2032 μg·pot-1 and 397 μg·pot-1, respectively. Intercropping enhanced the soil bacterial community diversity. The genera of Lysobacter in P. vittata rhizosphere and Massilia and Arthrobacter in S. alfredii rhizosphere had higher abundance in the intercropping system of P. vittata and S. alfredii. There were significantly positive correlation relationships between Massilia and Arthrobacter with plant Cd content and Lysobacter with plant As content, indicating that they may play important roles in As and Cd phytoextraction. The results suggested that intercropping P. vittata with S. alfredii could be a potential strategy for phytoextraction of As and Cd from co-contaminated soil.

Effects of tree-herb co-planting on the bacterial community composition and the relationship between specific microorganisms and enzymatic activities in metal(loid)-contaminated soil. CHEMOSPHERE 2019; 220:237-248. [PMID: 30584955 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2018.12.073] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2018] [Revised: 11/28/2018] [Accepted: 12/09/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
Tree-herb co-planting is regarded as an ecologically sustainable approach for the remediation of metal(loid)-contaminated soil. In this study, two herb species, Pteris vittata L. and Arundo donax L., and two woody species, Morus alba L. and Broussonetia papyrifera L., were selected for the tree-herb co-planting, and their impacts on the changing of microbial community structure in metal(loid)-contaminated soil were studied by high-throughput sequencing. The results showed that the microbial diversity was stably maintained by the tree-herb interactions, while the composition of the microbial community was clearly affected in metal(loid)-contaminated soil. According to the Venn and flower diagrams, heat map and principal coordinate analysis, both plant monocultures and co-planting had specific microbial community structures, which suggested that the composition and abundance of bacterial communities varied between plant monoculture and tree-herb co-planting treatments. In particular, A. donax L. played a vital role in increasing the abundances of Cyanobacteria (>1%) in metal(loid)-contaminated soil when co-planted with woody plants. Furthermore, some specific microorganisms combined with plants played a key role in improving enzyme activity in the contaminated soil. Correspondingly, sucrase and acid phosphatase activities in monoculture and co-planting treatments significantly (p < 0.05) increased by 1.05-3.37 and 7.24-20.3 times. These results indicated that the rhizospheric interactions in the tree-herb co-planting system positively affected the soil microbes and had stronger impacts on the composition of soil microorganisms, which was closely related to the improvement of the biological quality in the metal(loid)-contaminated soil.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the influence of heavy metals (HM) on total soil bacterial population and its diversity pattern from 10 km distance of a Zinc smelter in Feng County, Qinling Mountain, China. We characterized and identified the bacterial community in a HM polluted soil using 16S rDNA technology. Out results indicated that the maximum soil HM concentration and the minimum bacterial population were observed in S2 soil, whereas bacterial diversity raised with the sampling distance increased. The bacterial communities were dominated by the phyla Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria and Actinobacteria in cornfield soils, except Fimicutes phylum which dominated in hilly area soil. The soil CEC, humic acid (HA)/fulvic acid (FA) and microbial OTUs increased with the sampling distance increased. Shewanella, Halomonas and Escherichia genera were highly tolerant to HM stress in both cultivated and non-cultivated soil. Finally, we found a consistent correlation of bacterial diversity with total HM and SOM along the sampling distance surrounding the zinc smelter, which could provide a new insight into the bacterial community-assisted and phytoremediation of HM contaminated soils.

Matsuoka K, Kato K, Takao T, Ogawa M, Ishii Y, Shimizu F, Masuda J, Takada A. Concentrations of various tryptophan metabolites are higher in patients with diabetes mellitus than in healthy aged male adults. Diabetol Int 2016; 8:69-75. [PMID: 30603309 DOI: 10.1007/s13340-016-0282-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2016] [Accepted: 07/31/2016] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Tryptophan metabolites in plasma samples from 20 male subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and 20 nondiabetic reference males were analyzed by ultra high performance liquid chromatography. Tryptophan levels in the diabetic subjects were significantly lower than those in nondiabetic subjects. The concentrations of 5-hydroxytryptophan, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid, kynurenic acid, 3-hydroxykynurenine, 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, and xanthurenic acid were found to be higher in the diabetic patients. When the diabetic patients were divided into higher- and lower-tryptophan groups, the concentrations of 5-hydroxytryptophan, indole-3-acetic acid, kynurenine, 5-hydroxykynurenine, and kynurenic acid were found to be higher in the diabetic patients with higher tryptophan levels. However, diabetic patients with lower plasma tryptophan levels had higher levels of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid than the patients with higher tryptophan levels. These results suggest that tryptophan was metabolized more in T2DM patients than in nondiabetic subjects. In the kynurenine pathway, the degradation of tryptophan seems to be accelerated in patients with higher plasma levels of tryptophan than in patients with lower levels of tryptophan. In the serotonin pathway, when the level of tryptophan is low, the conversion of serotonin to 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid appears to be accelerated. In conclusion, our results suggest that T2DM patients may be exposed to stress constantly.
