Abstract In order to explore the difference of soil microbial population structure and abundance before and after planting JunCao"Oasis No. 1" in saline-alkali soil, verify the improvement effect of JunCao"Oasis No. 1" on microbial population structure and abundance in saline-alkali soil. Samples were collected from the blank saline area with and without JunCao"Oasis NO.1" and no plant growth on the surface, respectively, as Experimental group soil samples (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) and Blank group soil samples (K.B.1-K.B.8).16sDNA high-throughput sequencing technology was used for sequencing analysis respectively, and the diversity of microbial population abundance between them was compared and analyzed.The results showed that the diversity of microbial population abundance in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the blank group, and the diversity of microbial population abundance in the experimental group was significantly different from that in the blank group, indicating that the composition of microbial population in the experimental group was significantly different from that in the blank group. In the OTU cluster analysis, the number of OTU clusters in the Experimental group soil samples (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) was significantly higher than that in the Blank group soil samples (K.B.1-K.B.8). In the sample complexity analysis of α-diversity analysis, the richness and diversity of microbial population in soil samples of Experimental group (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) were significantly higher than that in soil samples of Blank group (K.B.1-K.B.8), which was clearly reflected in the Species accumulation boxplot and Graph of species diversity. In the β-diversity analysis, PcoA, PCA and NMDS analysis methods were used to analyze the difference of microbial population diversity between Experimental soil samples (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) and Blank soil samples (K.B.1-K.B.8). The results showed that the diversity of microbial population in Experimental soil sample (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) was significantly different from that in Blank soil sample (K.B.1-K.B.8). In this paper, 16sDNA high-throughput sequencing technology was used to analyze the diversity of microbial population abundance between Blank soil samples and Experimental soil samples, and it was proved that JunCao"Oasis No. 1" had good saline-alkali soil improvement characteristics. It can effectively increase the abundance of microbial population in saline-alkali soil, so as to restore the microbial population ecosystem in saline-alkali soil, which has important application value in soil saline-alkali control.

The need to expand the list of organisms used in environmental biodiagnostics arises from the variety of pollutants and types of man-made effects on the biosphere. The choice of available test organism should be based on easily detectable and differentiable sensitivity to factors, high reproducibility of seed material, alignment of the genetic line used by the gene pool and phenotype. The paper presents the results of the soil contamination of urban agglomeration study by the bioindication and biotesting method using a dandelion as a bioindicator plant and a test organism. Within the study, the generation of dandelion was obtained and investigated for applicability in biotesting. During the first stage of the study, soil samples were taken in the influence zone of VOAO Khimprom and near the 2nd Prodol’naya avenue of Volgograd. Germination of dandelion seeds showed noticeable differences in growth rates both in comparison with control and in comparison, of prototypes with each other. At the end of the first stage, numerous apomictic seed offspring were obtained to excrete the aligned genetic lineage of test organisms. The expansion of the list of contaminated locations by counting the territories adjacent to the VMK Krasnyi Oktyabr’ showed the detected differentiated physiological reaction of test organisms grown in experimental soil samples. The results of the study confirm the postulate on soil contamination of urban locations with physiologically active pollutants and also characterize the used plant as a sensitive and easily reproducible test organism under artificial conditions. During the two-year experiment the possibility of selecting the genetic lineage Taraxacum officinale with predictable and monotonous properties was proved due to the tendency of this species to apomixis.

Abstract Aims Arsenic is a nonessential element for plants, however, high levels of As can inhibit plant growth. Toxicity of As is largely influenced by its speciation in soil. The objectives of the present study were to determine fractional composition of As in soil, its accumulation in plants, and toxic effects on the morphological, anatomical, and ultrastructural levels. Methods In a model experiment, barley (Hordeum sativum) was planted in Haplic Chernozem spiked with three different concentrations of As (20, 50 and 100 mg/kg). The fraction composition of As in the experimental soil was analysed using a method of sequential fractionation. The effect of As on plants was analysed microscopically at tissue, cellular, and intracellular levels.Results Analysis of the fraction composition of As revealed a higher amount of mobile forms of As that contaminated the generative organs of plants. Oxides of Fe, Al, and Mn became the main soil components to retain As when contamination of As increased. Arsenic toxicity inhibited plant growth by affecting morphological parameters (shape, size, and colour). It was shown impairment in the root cells and a reduction in the size of the chlorophyllic parenchyma in the leaves. Ultrastructural analysis found changes in the main cellular organelles (chloroplasts, mitochondria, and peroxisomes).Conclusions The bioconcentration factor (BCF), bioaccumulation factor (BF-soluble), and translocation factor (TF) allowed evaluation of plant protection mechanisms and determination of hazardous concentrations of As in soil. Despite high buffering capacity of soil, high As concentration affected morphological and ultrastructural parameters of the H. sativum.
