小麦光温敏雄性不育系BS366铜锌超氧化物歧化酶基因的克隆及表达分析

超氧化物歧化酶(SOD,superoxide dismutase)是植物中一种主要的抗氧化酶,在植物应对逆境胁迫及抗衰老中起重要作用。本研究从基因芯片数据中筛选获得小麦Cu/Zn-SOD基因的EST序列,通过序列比对后拼接得到小麦Cu/Zn-SOD的候选基因,利用PCR技术在小麦光温敏雄性不育材料BS366中克隆并获得该基因。通过对Cu/Zn-SOD基因序列进行生物信息学分析,结果表明,该基因拥有连续且完整的开放阅读框,长495bp,编码164个氨基酸。氨基酸序列分析发现,该蛋白具有保守的Cu/Zn-SOD功能结构域与典型的Cu/Zn-SOD三维结构,且定位于细胞质中。通过同源进化分析表明,该蛋白与二穗短柄草(Brachypodium distachyon(L.)Beauv.)和大麦(Hordeum vulgare L.)的Cu/Zn-SOD蛋白亲缘关系较近,相似度分别为89%和94%。利用实时荧光定量PCR技术对其在小麦不同组织的表达特异性及不同逆境胁迫下的表达模式进行分析,结果表明,该基因在根、茎、叶、雌蕊、雄蕊、颖壳中均有表达,属于组成型表达,且在小麦的地上部含叶绿体的组织中含量较高;同时受多种胁迫诱导,可能参与了多种胁迫诱导调控途径。通过对该基因在不同育性环境中BS366育性转换期花药中的表达模式分析,发现可育环境下,在小孢子母细胞时期和减数分裂期的表达量分别约为对照的8倍与16倍;而不育环境下,该基因表达水平无明显变化。因而推测,小麦Cu/Zn-SOD基因可能参与了光温敏雄性不育系BS366的育性调控。本研究为深入研究Cu/Zn-SOD基因在小麦中的作用机理奠定了重要基础。

Characterization of fertility alteration and marker validation for male sterility genes in novel PTGMS lines hybrid rice

Photoperiod and thermosensitive genetic male sterile (PTGMS) lines have become one of the main sources of global rice production increasing. This study was conducted to evaluate the fertility alteration and validate the male sterility genes using validation markers in novel Egyptian Indica and Japonica PTGMS lines under natural conditions. The study revealed that the new genetic male sterile lines belong to the type of photo–thermosensitive genetic male sterility (PTGMS). The fertility alteration of these lines has influenced by photoperiod and temperature interaction. The new PTGMS lines have three sensitive periods of fertility alteration; transformation, sterility, and fertility period. Furthermore, the sensitive stage of fertility transformation might be from secondary branch primordial to pollen mother cells (PMC) meiosis. Under the natural Sakha condition, the new PTGMS lines were stable sterile under the condition of day length upper 13,75 h and temperature over 25 °C, while its convert to fertile under day length under 13 h, and temperature lower than 24 °C. The co-dominant markers identified the pms3 and tms5 genes in the new PTGMS lines, indicated that the fertility alteration in these lines controlled by photoperiod and thermosensitive stages.     

Fine mapping and candidate gene analysis of <Emphasis Type="Italic">ptgms2-1</Emphasis>, the photoperiod-thermo-sensitive genic male sterile gene in rice (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Oryza sativa</Emphasis> L.)

Photoperiod-thermo-sensitive genic male sterile (PTGMS) rice exhibits a number of desirable traits for hybrid rice production. The cloning genes responsible for PTGMS and those elucidating male sterility mechanisms and reversibility to fertility would be of great significance to provide a foundation to develop new male sterile lines. Guangzhan63S, a PTGMS line, is one of the most widely used indica two-line hybrid rice breeding systems in China. In this study, genetic analysis based on F₂ and BC₁F₂ populations derived from a cross between Guangzhan63S and 1587, determined a single recessive gene controls male sterility in Guangzhan63S. Molecular marker techniques combined with bulked-segregant analysis (BSA) were used and located the target gene (named ptgms2-1) between two SSR markers RM12521 and RM12823. Fine mapping of the ptgms2-1 locus was conducted with 45 new Insertion–Deletion (InDel) markers developed between the RM12521 and RM12823 region, using 634 sterile individuals from F₂ and BC₁F₂ populations. Ptgms2-1 was further mapped to a 50.4 kb DNA fragment between two InDel markers, S2-40 and S2-44, with genetic distances of 0.08 and 0.16 cM, respectively, which cosegregated with S2-43 located on the AP004039 BAC clone. Ten genes were identified in this region based on annotation results from the RiceGAAS system. A nuclear ribonuclease Z gene was identified as the candidate for the ptgms2-1 gene. This result will facilitate cloning the ptgms2-1 gene. The tightly linked markers for the ptgms2-1 gene locus will further provide a useful tool for marker-assisted selection of this gene in rice breeding programs.     

中国特有小麦中杂种黄化基因Chl和提型胞质育性恢复基因的分布研究

本研究以Ｔ型不育系ＱＡ１１０４（具有杂种黄化基因Ｃｈ２）和Ｋｈａｐｌｉ（具有杂种黄化基因Ｃｈ１）为测验种,对中国特有小麦等六倍体小麦类型和一些四倍体小麦类型中的Ｔ型胞质育性恢复基因和杂种黄化Ｃｈ１基因的分布进行了研究。结果表明：中国白麦子类型、西藏半野生小麦、云南铁壳麦、圆锥小麦（矮兰麦）一节节麦人工合成双二倍体以及中国圆锥小麦等类型中未发现Ｔ型育性恢复基因和杂种黄化基因Ｃｈ１;在斯卑尔脱小麦杜哈米林类型和野生二粒小麦中发现有Ｔ型育性恢复基因的存在,但是不存在杂种黄化基因Ｃｈ１。在新疆稻麦和中国波兰小麦中未发现有Ｔ型胞质育性恢复基因的存在。但在新疆稻麦中普遍含有杂种黄化基因Ｃｈ１,在波兰小麦中一些居群有Ｃｈ１基因、一些居群无。这暗示：新疆稻麦可能来源于含有Ｃｈ１基因的波兰小麦类型,而且可能是起源于波兰小麦与节节麦的天然杂交并经过双二倍体化途径而形成的。     

Targeted mutagenesis of a conserved anther‐expressed P450 gene confers male sterility in monocots

Targeted mutagenesis using programmable DNA endonucleases has broad applications for studying gene function in planta and developing approaches to improve crop yields. Recently, a genetic method that eliminates the need to emasculate the female inbred during hybrid seed production, referred to as Seed Production Technology, has been described. The foundation of this genetic system relied on classical methods to identify genes critical to anther and pollen development. One of these genes is a P450 gene which is expressed in the tapetum of anthers. Homozygous recessive mutants in this gene render maize and rice plants male sterile. While this P450 in maize corresponds to the male fertility gene Ms26, male fertility mutants have not been isolated in other monocots such as sorghum and wheat. In this report, a custom designed homing endonuclease, Ems26+, was used to generate in planta mutations in the rice, sorghum and wheat orthologs of maize Ms26. Similar to maize, homozygous mutations in this P450 gene in rice and sorghum prevent pollen formation resulting in male sterile plants and fertility was restored in sorghum using a transformed copy of maize Ms26. In contrast, allohexaploid wheat plants that carry similar homozygous nuclear mutations in only one, but not all three, of their single genomes were male fertile. Targeted mutagenesis and subsequent characterization of male fertility genes in sorghum and wheat is an important step for capturing heterosis and improving crop yields through hybrid seed.     

Comparative proteomics analysis reveals the mechanism of fertility alternation of thermosensitive genic male sterile rice lines under low temperature inducement

Thermosensitive genic male sterile (TGMS) rice line has made great economical contributions in rice production. However, the fertility of TGMS rice line during hybrid seed production is frequently influenced by low temperature, thus leading to its fertility/sterility alteration and hybrid seed production failure. To understand the mechanism of fertility alternation under low temperature inducement, the extracted proteins from young panicles of two TGMS rice lines at the fertility alternation sensitivity stage were analyzed by 2DE. Eighty‐three protein spots were found to be significantly changed in abundance, and identified by MALDI‐TOF‐TOF MS. The identified proteins were involved in 16 metabolic pathways and cellular processes. The young panicles of TGMS rice line Zhu 1S possessed the lower ROS‐scavenging, indole‐3‐acetic acid level, soluble protein, and sugar contents as well as the faster anther wall disintegration than those of TGMS rice line Zhun S. All these major differences might result in that the former is more stable in fertility than the latter. Based on the majority of the 83 identified proteins, together with microstructural, physiological, and biochemical results, a possible fertile alteration mechanism in the young panicles of TGMS rice line under low temperature inducement was proposed. Such a result will help us in breeding TGMS rice lines and production of hybrid seed.     

Genic markers for wild abortive (WA) cytoplasm based male sterility and its fertility restoration in rice

Commercial exploitation of heterosis is essential for enhancing productivity of rice. The use of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) and fertility restoration system greatly facilitates large scale production of hybrid seed. The wild abortive (WA) cytoplasm is most widely used for hybrid seed production in rice. The present study was undertaken to develop molecular markers for both WA cytoplasm based male sterility and its fertility restoration for use in efficient hybrid breeding. High degree of genetic differentiation of WA-cytoplasm from its normal fertile counterpart was observed due to DNA rearrangements involving five (coxI, coxIII, cob, atp6 and rps3) mitochondrial genes. Cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) markers based on five mitochondrial genes namely, coxIII, cob, atp9, rps3 and 18SrRNA polymorphic between CMS and maintainer line were developed. The utility of these informative markers was demonstrated in purity testing of the CMS line Pusa6A being used in commercial hybrid seed production. Fertility restoration was found to be controlled by a major locus in the Basmati restorer line PRR78, which was mapped to a short marker interval of 0.8 cM and a physical interval of 163.6 kb on rice chromosome 10. A total of 13 pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) motif containing genes were predicted in a 1.66 Mb region on the long-arm of this chromosome of which, four were present in the marker interval containing the fertility restorer gene. High degree of conservation of gene order was observed between japonica and indica for the predicted PPR genes. A sequence tagged site (STS) and a genic non-coding microsatellite (GNMS) marker were designed based on one of the candidate PPR motif containing genes present in the marker interval, which were validated using F₂ population and other known restorer lines. The candidate gene based marker identified in the present study would be useful in marker assisted selection (MAS) for fertility restorer gene in hybrid breeding programme based on WA-CMS of rice.     

Transgenic rice hybrids that carry the Rf-1 gene at multiple loci show improved fertility at low temperature

By using a genomic fragment that carries the rice (Oryza sativa L.) fertility restorer gene, Rf-1, rice restorer lines harbouring multiple Rf-1 genes on different chromosomes were developed by genetic engineering and crossing. Hybrid lines that were obtained by crossing the restorer lines having two and three Rf-1 genes with a cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) line had nearly 75 and 87.5% pollen fertility rates under a normal condition, respectively, whereas a conventional hybrid line showed a 50% pollen fertility rate. Furthermore, the seed set percentage under low temperature conditions was much higher in the hybrid lines with multiple Rf-1 genes than the conventional hybrid line. These results indicate that multiplication of the Rf-1 gene conferred cold tolerance at the booting stage to hybrid rice through increasing the potentially fertile pollen grains. This strategy to improve fertility at low temperature of hybrids could be applied to any grain crops that are developed based on CMS and its gametophytic restorer gene, let alone rice.     

紫稻(Oryza sativa L.)线粒体ATP合成酶 atp6 基因转录本 RNA 编辑

紫稻（Oryza sativa L.）细胞质雄性不育系紫稻A是本实验室构建的新型细胞质雄性不育系。本研究使用PCR、RT-PCR、DNA测序等技术,得到了紫稻细胞质雄性不育水稻不育系（樱香A）及其保持系（樱香B）线粒体atp6基因转录本cDNA序列。通过与基因组序列比对发现：樱香Aatp6cDNA序列中,没有发生RNA编辑;而樱香Batp6 cDNA序列中有16个编辑位点,在樱香B cDNA序列16个编辑位点位于15个密码子中,所编码的氨基酸均发生改变：在1003位点由C替换为T,导致原来编码谷氨酰胺密码子（CAA）成为终止密码子（TAA）,保证atp6 mRNA编码一个正常的ATP6多肽;而由于没有发生RNA编辑,樱香A mRNA就不能翻译成正常的多肽。研究表明,RNA编辑在合成正常的ATP6多肽的过程中具有至关重要的作用,同时也说明RNA编辑可能与细胞质雄性不育相关。
