To illuminate the differences in the effects of different types of microplastics (MPs, size<5 mm) on crop nitrogen absorption and metabolism, the degradable polylactic acid (PLA) and polybutylene terephthalate (PBAT) and undegradable polyethylene (PE) were selected for vegetable pot experiments with three doses (0.5%, 1%, and 3%). The responses of inorganic nitrogen content, plant growth, nitrogen absorption, and metabolism enzyme activity to soil MPs pollution in the soil-lettuce ( L.) system was investigated. The results showed that MPs significantly hindered the decomposition of soil organic carbon (SOC) and reduction and accumulation of nitrate (NO-N) in lettuce, while increasing soil C/N and ammonium (NH-N) content. The total nitrogen (TN) content of soil under the PE treatment was lower than that of the PLA and PBAT treatments for 0.25-0.52 g·kg and 0.33-0.52 g·kg, respectively. PBAT treated lettuce had significantly lower dry weight and accumulated N uptake compared to those in the PLA and PE treatments (<0.05). The 1% dose resulted in the lowest antioxidant enzyme and nitrate reductase (NR) activities and the highest malondialdehyde (MDA) content, with NR activity and MDA content being 15.19%-42.0% and 2.68-3.11 times of the control, respectively. Regarding to the mechanism, N uptake by lettuce was significantly negatively correlated with SOC (0.01). In summary, the MPs input to soil can reduce the activity of N metabolism enzymes in lettuce. The degradable PBAT significantly reduced the N uptake, and the oxidative damage to lettuce was greater under moderate pollution.
为阐明不同类型微塑料(MPs,尺寸<5毫米)对作物氮吸收和代谢的影响差异,选用可降解的聚乳酸(PLA)、聚对苯二甲酸丁二醇酯(PBAT)和不可降解的聚乙烯(PE)进行蔬菜盆栽试验,设置三个剂量(0.5%、1%和3%)。研究了土壤-生菜系统中无机氮含量、植物生长、氮吸收和代谢酶活性对土壤微塑料污染的响应。结果表明,微塑料显著阻碍了土壤有机碳(SOC)的分解以及生菜中硝酸盐(NO-N)的还原和积累,同时增加了土壤碳氮比和铵(NH-N)含量。PE处理下土壤的总氮(TN)含量分别比PLA和PBAT处理低0.25 - 0.52克·千克和0.33 - 0.52克·千克。与PLA和PE处理相比,PBAT处理的生菜干重和氮积累量显著更低(<0.05)。1%剂量导致抗氧化酶和硝酸还原酶(NR)活性最低,丙二醛(MDA)含量最高,NR活性和MDA含量分别是对照的15.19% - 42.0%和2.68 - 3.11倍。就机制而言,生菜的氮吸收与SOC显著负相关(0.01)。综上所述,向土壤中输入微塑料会降低生菜中氮代谢酶的活性。可降解的PBAT显著降低了氮吸收,在中度污染下对生菜的氧化损伤更大。
