Abstract

Single - and combined effects of a domestic freshwater bivalve Unio douglasiae (7.6~8.6 cm in shell length) and zooplankton Daphnia magna (1~2 mm in body size) were examined to understand whether they inhibit the growth of harmful cyanobacterial bloom (i.e. Microcystis aeruginosa) in a eutrophic lake. The experiments were triplicated with twelve glass aquaria (40 L in volume); three aquaria without mussel and zooplankton, served as a control, three zooplankton aquaria (Z, density=40 indiv. $L^{-1}$), three mussel aquaria (M, density=0.5 indiv. $L^{-1}$), and three mussel plus zooplankton aquarium (ZM, density=40 indiv.Z $L^{-1}$ plus 0.5 indiv.M/L), respectively. Algal growth inhibition (%) calculated as a difference in the concentration of chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) before and after treatment. Chl-a in all aquaria decreased with the time, while a greatest algal inhibition was seen in the ZM aquaria. After 24 hrs of incubation, Chl-a concentration at the mid-depth (ca. 15 cm) in ZM aquaria reduced by 90.8% of the control, while 63.2% and 79.8% in Z and M aquaria, respectively. Interestingly, during the same period, the surface Chl-a was diminished by 51.9% and 65.4% relative to the control in Z and ZM aquaria, while 27.4% of initial concentration decreased in M aquarium, respectively. These results suggest that 1) this domestic freshwater filter-feeding bivalve plays a significant role in the control of cyanobacterial bloom (M. aeruginosa), and 2) the combination with zooplankton and mussel has a synergistic effect to diminish them, compared to the single treatment of zooplankton and mussel.

유해조류의 생물학적 제어를 위하여 여과능이 입증된 패류와 동물플랑크톤을 혼합적용하고, 현장적용 가능성을 검토하였다. 실험수는 매년 남조 Microcystis aeruginosa가 대발생하는 일감호 (서울)의 현장수, sediment, 배지를 대형 수조에 일정량 넣고 인위적으로 조류대발생을 일으켜 유지하고 있는 실험수를 이용하였다. 실험은 동물플랑크톤만 처리한 Z군 (40 individuals $L^{-1}$), 패류만 처리한 M군 (2 individuals $L^{-1}$), 동물플랑크톤과 패류를 모두 첨가한 ZM군 (Z, M군의 밀도를 합한 것)으로 설계하였다. 수심별 조류제어 효과를 확인하기 위하여 표층, 중층에서 각각 일정량의 실험수를 꺼내 엽록소량의 경시적 변화를 측정하였다. 결과, 중층의 모든 처리구에서 Chl-a의 감소를 보였으며 24시간째 Z군은 63.2%의 제어율을 보인 반면, M군과 ZM군은 각각 79.8%, 90.8%의 제어율을 나타내 뚜렷한 억제효과를 보였다. 표층의 경우, Z군과 ZM군은 각각 51.9%, 63.4% 등으로 50% 이상의 억제효과를 보인 반면, M군의 경우 대조군의 27.4%로서 가장 낮은 제어율을 보였다. 결과를 종합하면, 두 생물제재의 혼합이 수층에 상관없이 그 효과는 입증되었으나 남조 M. aeruginosa의 부유성을 감안한다면, 패류의 적용수심이 조류제어에 매우 중요한 인자임을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 생물제재의 혼합적용이 보다 높은 효과를 보였으며 조류의 생리적 특성과 생물제재간의 상호관계에 대한 세밀한 연구가 요구되었다.
