There are mainly distributed three pedigrees (White, Liangdao Red, and Zebra) of Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum in Yantai population along the Bohai marine and coast. However, the biological differences to environmental stressors have been ignored in toxicology studies, which could lead to the distortion of biological interpretations of toxicological effects induced by environmental contaminants. In this study, we applied a system biology approach, metabolomics to compare the metabolic profiles in digestive gland from three pedigrees of clam and characterize and compare the metabolic responses induced by mercury in clam digestive gland tissues to determine a sensitive pedigree of clam as a preferable bioindicator for metal pollution monitoring and toxicology research. The most abundant metabolites, respectively, included branched‐chain amino acids, alanine, and arginine in White samples, glutamate, dimethylglycine, and glycine in Zebra clams and acetylcholine, betaine, glucose, and glycogen in Liangdao Red clams. After 48 h exposure of 20 µg L^?1 Hg²⁺, the metabolic profiles from the three pedigrees of clams showed differentially significant changes in alanine, glutamate, succinate, taurine, hypotaurine, glycine, arginine, glucose, etc. Our findings indicate the toxicological effects of mercury exposure in Manila clams including the neurotoxicity, disturbances in energetic metabolisms and osmoregulation in the digestive glands and suggest that Liangdao Red pedigree of clam could be a preferable bioindicator for the metal pollution monitoring based on the more sensitive classes of metabolic changes from digestive glands compared with other two (White and Zebra) pedigrees of clams.  相似文献

锡铁山地体位于柴北缘超高压变质带的中部, 是柴北缘超高压变质带的重要组成部分。该地体由花岗质片麻岩、泥质片麻岩和相对较少的榴辉岩透镜体组成。大部分榴辉岩都经历了不同程度的后生合晶和角闪岩相退化变质改造。虽然近年来进行了大量的锆石U-Pb年代学研究,但榴辉岩相高压-超高压变质的时代一直存在争议,并且以前对锡铁山榴辉岩相变质时代的认识一直与相邻的绿梁山、鱼卡和其东部的都兰等地区的超高压变质年龄有明显的冲突。本文通过锡铁山榴辉岩锆石U-Pb年代学的研究,获得榴辉岩相变质锆石的²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U加权平均年龄为433±3Ma,与鱼卡地区榴辉岩的形成年龄一致,代表大陆俯冲时期的高压-超高压变质年龄。该研究对进一步了解锡铁山榴辉岩地体的变质演化和大陆地壳深俯冲有重要意义。  相似文献

土壤元素地球化学基准是指自然环境中土壤元素正常含量,属于土壤固有的化学组成与结构特征。江苏省现有国土面积约102 600 km2,至2007年已经完成全省1∶250 000多目标区域地球化学调查。按照4 km2采集1个样品、采样深度150～200 cm,16 km2分析测试1个组合样,共获得全省6 127个代表自然环境土壤之样品的52个元素与TOC含量的数据,剔除异常含量数据后,以平均含量代表全省土壤元素地球化学基准值、"基准值±1.5或2倍标准离差"表示元素基准值变化范围,获得了江苏省土壤52个元素及TOC的地球化学基准值,为土壤环境评价等提供了基础资料。结果表明:(1)全省土壤大多数元素含量数据不服从正态分布,但剔除异常数据后对平均含量影响不明显;(2)人为活动因素导致江苏土壤的Cd、Hg、Se、N等元素在地表20 cm以上深度发生显著富集,给建立土壤元素地球化学基准值增添了新的难度;(3)成土母质、土壤成因类型与地貌等差异是影响江苏土壤元素含量分布的基本要素。  相似文献

根据威宁草海第四纪窑上组沉积物主量元素和REE特征,探讨沉积物物源特征、气候演变情况、沉积物堆积控制因素。结果表明:Al、Mg、Ca、K、Na和Ti的含量变化在剖面上一致,它们的相关系数很高(0.522~0.985)。Fe含量和Mn含量呈正相关形式,与Al、Mg、Ca、K、Na和Ti呈负相关。Fe2O3含量在土黄色粘土的铁质层很高(42.86%~50.57%)。样品中REE球粒陨石标准化配分模式与贵州土壤、贵州碳酸盐岩风化壳配分模式很相似,与峨眉山玄武岩配分模式不一致,但其含量略低于贵州碳酸盐岩风化壳的含量;沉积物主要来源于碳酸盐岩,且碳酸盐岩强烈风化成土作用使REE超常富集,在剖面上呈现高ΣREE(平均219.38μg/g)。通过Mg/Ca、MgO/Al2O3、(CaO+K2O+Na2O)/Al2O3、(Fe2O3+Al2O3)/(MgO+CaO)、(K+Na+Ca+Mg)/(Fe+Mn)、(Al+Fe+Mn)/(K+Ca+Mg)和(MgO+Na2O+CaO)/Al2O3等气候指标研究,表明在草海窑上期为湖泊沉积时期,气候经历了由温暖湿润向冷干的转变。同时,认为物源性质、构造运动、气候等共同控制该区沉积物形成。  相似文献

Seismic geomorphology of buried channel systems in the western South Huanghai Sea: retrodiction for paleoenvironments   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Quantitative morphologic analysis of shallowly buried, dendritic channel systems in the continental shelf off the abandoned Huanghe River (Yellow River) mouth has been made based on interpretation of high resolution seismic profiles, with the attempt to estimate the paleo-hydrologic parameters when the incised-channels formed, then assess the paleoenvironment. The results indicate that the buried channel systems were formed about 44 cal ka BP when the shelf was subaerially exposed and subsequently drowned and filled during the Holocene transgression with the sea level rise continuously. The study area has experienced the processes from fluvial and estuarine to fully marine.  相似文献

The influence of density,foliage and stem flexibility on the roughness coefficients under unsubmerged conditions,such as Manning’s n,is investigated experimentally.An instrumentation system has been developed for measuring the flow rate ranging from 0.1 to 0.3 L/s under the condition of different artificial foliated reeds.Based on the experimental results,the influence on the relationship between n with different density,foliage,flexibility and flow depth is discussed.It is found that the foliage and the density are the important factors affecting Manning’s n.At a range of relatively low velocity and relatively large bending stiffness of stem,Manning’s n is not influenced significanthy by the flexibility of stem.  相似文献
