Algae-bacteria systems are used widely in wastewater treatment. N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (AHL) plays an important role in algal-bacteria communication. However, little study has been conducted on the ability of AHLs to regulate algal metabolism and the carbon fixation ability, especially in algae-bacteria system.

However, in a highly dynamic land-water reservoir, the microbial metabolic changes brought on by the changes of water nutrients following rainfall are not clearly documented. The study selected the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) backwater region during algal bloom seasons as the study area and time, and used the Biolog-EcoPlates technique to examine the heterotrophic metabolism conditions of the water before and after rain.

To understand the runoff pollution characteristics of the typical purple soil small watershed in the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR), the rainfall-runoff duration under typical land use types of the Xinzheng watershed and the nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) concentrations in the outlet runoff of each catchment were dynamically monitored, and the loss rule of N and P in the rainfall runoff in the small watershed in the TGR was investigated and analyzed. The results showed that the losses of runoff N and P were 13.69 kg·(hm·a) and 1.
