Embodiment 1

[0017] Example 1. Growth curve and growth rate of Microcystis aeruginosa under different nutrient levels

[0018] The microcystis aeruginosa (FACHB-905) used in the experiment was purchased from the freshwater algae species bank of the graduate student of Biobiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the AGP artificial medium formula was selected (TN=4.2 mg / L, TP=0.186 mg / L). Before the experiment, repeat the transfer of algae species and expand the culture to make the cells grow synchronously. In order to obtain algae cell samples with different growth rates, 6 treatment groups (NaNO 3 And K 2 HPO 4 The concentration is different, A1 to A6 are respectively 1 / 10, 1 / 4, 1, 2, 4, and 10 times the concentration of the AGP formula) for algae growth potential cultivation experiment. All treatment groups were set up for 3 parallel experiments. The temperature in the light incubator was set to 28±1 ℃, the light intensity was 2500 lx, the light-dark cycle ratio was 14 h:10 h, and the cultu...

[0023] Example 2. Functional relationship between [U] / [T] ratio and growth rate in Microcystis aeruginosa cells

[0024] Through the algae indoor culture experiment described in Example 1, several algal cell samples with different growth rates in the exponential growth stage can be collected in different treatment groups. Place the algae cell sample at 60 o C Dry in an oven at a constant temperature to a constant weight. After the algal cell sample pretreatment experiment described in the above technical scheme, the content of nucleobases [U] and [T] is determined by high performance liquid chromatography, and the base ratio is calculated [ U] / [T]. Taking the specific growth rate μ calculated in Example 1 as the abscissa and the nucleobase ratio [U] / [T] as the ordinate, through nonlinear fitting, the ratio between the specific growth rate and the nucleobase ratio can be obtained Regression model, such as image 3 Shown. The regression equation is: y=0.183ln(20.7ln([U] / [T])) whe...

[0025] Example 3. Nucleobase information and in situ growth rate of cyanobacteria in the Yangtze River Estuary Reservoir in October 2014

[0026] A total of 8 surface water samples at different points in the Qingcaosha Reservoir were collected in October 2014, and filtered through glass fiber membranes (0.7μm, Whatman, GF / F, 450℃ pre-burned for 3 h) to obtain algal cell samples. 60 in the oven o C dry at a constant temperature to a constant weight, and then implement the algal cell pretreatment experiment described in the technical scheme, and finally use high performance liquid chromatography to determine the content of uracil and thymine, and calculate the ratio of [U] / [T]. Substitute into the calculation formula: μ=0.183+ln(20.7ln([U] / [T])), so as to invert the in-situ growth rate of algae in Qingcaosha reservoir at each point. Table 1 shows the measured specific growth rate of algae in Qingcaosha Reservoir, and the result is 0.394~0.563 d -1 . Compared with the samples in th...

Abstract

The invention relates to a measuring method for in-situ growth velocity of a microalgae community based on nucleobase information. Multiple water bloom dominant algae are selected, and growth velocities of an exponential growth phase under different experiment conditions are obtained; algae cell samples of the maximum growth velocity of the exponential growth phase under all kinds of conditions are collected, hydrochloric acid high-temperature dissolving treatment is conducted, and specific nucleobase content is analyzed by a high performance liquid chromatography. Plotting is carried out on the maximum growth velocity of the algae according to the ratio of uracil content and thymine content of algae cells, and a regression model is established; microalgae cells are collected from field environment and used for analyzing of the nucleobase content, a [U] / [T] ratio of the microalgae cells is calculated, the algae growth velocity, namely the in-situ growth velocity of the microalgae community, in the field environment is inverted by using the established regression model,. Growth characteristics of the microalgae community in the field in sampling time are basically reflected by the growth velocity obtained in the method, high-resolution temporal and spatial variation characteristics of the in-situ growth velocity of the microalgae community are very suitable for being explored, and therefore technological support is provided for predicting of the possible outbreak position and time of the algal bloom.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for measuring the in-situ growth rate of phytoplankton, in particular to a method for measuring the in-situ growth rate of phytoplankton based on the ratio of the nucleobase content of the microalgae community. Background technique [0002] Algae blooms (such as cyanobacteria blooms) are a common phenomenon in the eutrophication process of freshwater ecosystems. In severe cases, they can cause a lack of dissolved oxygen or produce algal toxins, which will harm the health of aquatic animals and humans. However, these hazards also vary with the composition and growth stages of algae. To accurately warn and predict the location and time of algal blooms in large waters, it is necessary to grasp the growth characteristics of algae with high spatial and temporal resolution, which has become a hot and difficult point in the current lake / reservoir water quality management. [0003] In natural waters, the in-situ growth rate is a ref...
