Abstract

A pot experiment was conducted to study the responses of white clover(Trifolium repens) inoculated with five arbuscular mycorrhizal(AM) fungi Glomus coronatum,G.mosseae,G.intraradices,G.aggregatum and G.etunicatum to copper contamination.In copper polluted soil,G.intraradices inoculation increased shoot and root fresh weights,plant height and main root length,the order of mycorrhizal dependency was G.intraradices G.mosseaeG.etunicatum G.aggregatum G.coronatum.White clover inoculated with AM fungi(G.coronatum excluded) maintained higher peroxidase and catalase activities,G.intraradices inoculation also increased superoxide dismutase activity,and G.intraradices,G.etunicatum and G.coronatum infection decreased malondialdehyde contents in shoots relative to corresponding non-AM control,there were more chlorophyll contents in AM plants,as well as higher proline contents in G.intraradices,G.mosseae and G.coronatum inoculated plants.G.intraradices and G.etunicatum inoculation significantly increased copper(Cu) contents in shoots and roots,while G.mosseae infection also increased Cu content in root,however,G.coronatum inoculation decreased Cu content in root,and ratio of Cu in shoot colonized by G.intraradices was the highest among the five treatments.Inoculation with AM fungi(G.coronatum excluded) increased zinc contents in shoots and roots,G.intraradices and G.etunicatum infection increased phosphorus(P) contents in shoots and roots,meanwhile,P contents were higher in G.aggregatum and G.coronatum inoculated shoots than in non-AM shoots.AM symbiosis increased potassium(K) contents in root significantly,but had little influences on K contents in shoot,G.intraradices treatment increased magnesium(Mg) content in shoots,and AM infection(G.etunicatum excluded) increased Mg contents in root markedly,in addition,AM fungi inoculation increased calcium contents in shoots(G.aggregatum excluded) and roots(G.coronatum excluded).In summary,G.intraradices inoculation was most beneficial to remediation of Cu contaminated soil by white clover,followed by G.etunicatum inoculation,and the effect of G.coronatum inoculation was relatively weak.
