Abstract
Arbuscular mycorrhizal biorememdiation(AMBR)has becoming a promising new remediation technique for contamianated soils by organic pollutants including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Enzymes play an important role in AMBR process. As reported, arbuscular mycorrhizae can enhance the activity of oxidative enzymes in rhizosphere, which may lead to enhanced dissipation of PAHs in soil. Studies on effects of arbuscular mycorrhizae on enzymes in rhizosphere would be helpful to get a better understanding of AMBR for PAH contaminated soils. In this work, a greenhouse pot experiment was conducted to investigate the impacts of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), Glomus mosseae and Glomus etunicatum as represantatives, on three enzymes in contaminated soils by phenanthrene and pyrene. Hosts were Trifolium repens L. and Lolium multiflorum Lam. Initial concentrations of phenanthrene and pyrene in soils were 203.4 mg·kg-1 and 107.5 mg·kg-1, respectively. It was observed that the activities of polyphenol oxidase, catalase and acid phosphatase enhanced in planted soil. During 20~60 d, polyphenol oxidase in rhizosphere of Trifolium repens L. inoculated by Glomus mosseae and Glomus etunicatum increased 19.6%~72.0% and 29.7%~90.6%, and catalase increased 3.3%~12.2% and 7.8%~34.7%, respectively. In general, phosphatase in rhizosphere of Trifolium repens L. enhanced with inoculation of these two AMFs. Polyphenol oxidase in rhizosphere of Lolium multiflorum Lam. increased 18.0%~ 43.1%, while catalase decreased by inoculation of Glomus mosseae. Acid phosphatase in rhizosphere of Lolium multiflorum Lam, increased at first stages and decreased thereafter with inoculation of Glomus mosseae. Significant difference was observed on the effects of two tested AMFs on acid phosphatase and catalase in rhizosphere of Trifolium repens L. in 30 d. In addition, the influence of AMF on enzymes in soils was related to their host characteristics.
