Allelic composition and genetic background effects on GUS expression and inheritance using a chimeric (cauliflower mosaic virus 35Sp:uidA) transgene were investigated in white clover as a prelude to transgenic cultivar development. Stable expression and Mendelian inheritance of the uidA transgene was observed over two generations when the uidA transgene was maintained in a heterozygous state. Transgenic backcross progeny (BC1) were intercrossed to produce segregating F2 populations. GUS-positive F2 plants were test-crossed with a non-transgenic control plant to determine whether individuals were heterozygous or homozygous for the transgene. Both expected and distorted segregation ratios were observed. Distortion of the segregation ratio was not caused by transgene inactivation or rearrangement, but was influenced by genetic background. BC1, BC2 and F2 populations were found to have similar levels of uidA gene expression. Quantification of GUS expression from progeny of high and low GUS expressing plants indicate that it is possible to alter transgene expression through selection. No difference was found between the level of expression for F2 plants homozygous or heterozygous for the transgene. These results indicate that F2 plants, homozygous for a transgene, might be used to develop a transgenic cultivar. However, progeny testing to determine the influence of genetic background is a prerequisite to such a development. 相似文献

Genetic approaches for studying transgene inheritance and genetic recombination in three successive generations of transformed tobacco 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Transgene integration into plant genomes is a complex process accompanied by molecular rearrangements. Classic methods that are normally used to study transgenic population genetics are generally inadequate for assessing such integration. Two major characteristics of transgenic populations are that a transgenic genome may harbor many copies of the transgene and that molecular rearrangements can create an unstable transgenic locus. In this work, we examined the segregation of T1, T2 and T3 transgenic tobacco progenies. Since transfer DNA (T-DNA) contains the NptII selectable marker gene that confers resistance to kanamycin, we used this characteristic in developing a method to estimate the number of functional inserts integrated into the genome. This approach was based on calculation of the theoretical segregation ratios in successive generations. Mendelian ratios of 3:1, 15:1 and 63:1 were confirmed for five transformation events whereas six transformation events yielded non-segregating progenies, a finding that raised questions about causal factors. A second approach based on a maximum likelihood method was performed to estimate recombination frequencies between linked inserts. Recombination estimates varied among transformation events and over generations. Some transgenic loci were unstable and evolved continuously to segregate independently in the T3 generation. Recombination and amplification of the transgene and filler DNA yielded additional transformed genotypes. 相似文献

Variation in transgene expression levels can result from uncontrolled differences in experimental protocols. Studies conducted over generations could, by their design, generate additional unwanted variation. To study sources of spurious variation, transgene expression levels were quantified over five homozygous generations in two independent transgenic rice lines created by particle bombardment. Both lines contained the same gus expression unit and had been shown to exhibit stable inheritance of transgene structure and expression. All plants were cultured and sampled using previously developed standardized protocols. Plants representative of each generation (T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) were grown either all together or across several different growth periods. GUS activity in plants from different generations was quantified either in the same assay or over multiple independent assays. Strategies in which plants were grown and phenotyped independently, significantly increased (up to 3-fold) extraneous variation in transgene expression level quantification, thus reducing the precision of molecular genetic studies and generating artefactual results in transgenic studies conducted over generations. Identification of sources of unwanted variation and quantification of their effect allowed the development of new strategies designed to control spurious variation. Growth and phenotyping of all plants from all generations together, using standard operating procedures (SOP), led to a reduction in extraneous variation associated with transgene expression level quantification. Adoption of such strategies is key to improving the reproducibility of transgenic studies conducted over generations. 相似文献

We examined the effects of a slight genetic disadvantage in a competitive situation by comparing the performance of inbred and outcrossed Brassica rapa plants over a range of neighbor densities, using a rapid-cycling, self-compatible cultivar of this species. We also examined the genetic correlations in performance among plants grown alone and with intra- and interspecific competitors. Competition had a strong effect on biomass and on the number of flowers produced, but differences in biomass between inbred and outcrossed plants were dependent on the competitive environment. Outcrossed plants outperformed those that were selfed only at intermediate densities of neighbors; at high densities and in the absence of competition inbred and outcrossed plants did not differ. For outcrossed families, performance without competitors and in intra- and interspecific competition were all highly correlated, but for selfed families, correlations were low, and performance in competition was not predictable from that of plants grown alone. Thus, the phenotypic expression of genetic differences may depend on the density of neighbors with which plants are grown. 相似文献

The relationship between homozygous and hemizygous transgene expression levels over generations in populations of transgenic rice plants 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Segregating T1, T2 and T3 transgenic rice populations, derived from independent particle-bombardment-mediated transformation events were examined in
order to assess the effect of gene dosage on transgene expression levels and stability. The expression level of the unselected
β-glucuronidase (gusA) reporter gene was quantified in plants from these populations. The gusA gene dosage was determined by segregation analysis of progeny seedlings at the structural level (by PCR) and at the expression
level. For some transformation events a gene dosage effect on transgene expression was observed, leading to higher transgene
expression levels in homozygous progeny than in hemizygous progeny or primary transgenic plants. However, in many other transformation
events, the homozygous state appears to be disadvantageous, being associated with lower transgene expression levels, gene
silencing or counter-selection of homozygous plants across generations. Change of gene dosage is probably one of the key factors
influencing transgene expression levels and stability in transgenic rice. This is particularly important when considering
molecular genetic studies and crop improvement programmes. The possible influence of matrix attachment regions (MARs) in increasing
the likelihood of an additive effect on transgene expression level is discussed.

Nine cytoplasmic male-sterile lines and five restorer lines were used in an incomplete diallel cross to analyze seed effects, cytoplasmic effects, and maternal gene effects on nutrient quality traits of indica rice (Oryza sauva L.). The results indicated that nutrient quality traits were controlled by cytoplasmic and maternal effects as well as by seed direct effects. Maternal effects for lysine content (LC), lysine index (LI), and the ratio of lysine content to protein content (RLP) were more important than seed direct effects, while protein content (PC) and protein index (PI) were mainly affected by seed direct effects. Cytoplasmic effects accounted for 2.41–20.80% of the total genetic variation and were significant for all nutrient quality traits. Additive genetic effects were much more important than dominance effects for all of the traits studied, so that selection could be applied for these traits in early generations. 相似文献

We cotransformed indica rice (Oryza sativa L. cvs. Basmati 370 and M7) with three plasmids, carrying a total of four genes, by particle bombardment. The Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) -endotoxin genes cry1Ac and cry2A were carried on separate vectors, while the gna (snowdrop lectin) and hpt (hygromycin phosphotransferase) genes were linked on the same, cointegrate vector. We evaluated the molecular and expression profiles of 29 independently derived transgenic lines over two generations. The gna and hpt genes cointegrated with a frequency of 100% as expected. Furthermore, 60% of the transgenic plants carried all four genes. Southern blot analysis showed that transgene copy number ranged from 1 to 15. We used western blots to determine protein expression levels in R0 and R1 plants. We observed wide variation in the expression levels of the nonselected transgenes among independently-derived lines, but expression levels within lines derived from the same clone were similar. Consistent with previous reports, we observed no correlation between transgene copy number and the level or stability of protein expression. We show that the introduction of multiple agronomically valuable genes into the rice genome by cotransformation is a practical strategy for engineering elite rice varieties. 相似文献

Varietal mutants can be useful for developing durable resistance, understanding categories of resistance, and identifying candidate genes involved in defense responses. We used mutants of rice 'IR64' to isolate new sources of resistance to the planthopper Nilaparvata lugens (St?l) (Hemiptera: Delphacidae). We compared two mutants that showed a gain and loss of resistance to N. lugens, to determine the categories of resistance to this pest. Under choice tests, female planthoppers avoided settling and laid fewer eggs on the resistant mutant 'D518' than on the susceptible mutant D1131, susceptible check 'TN1', and wild-type IR64, indicating that antixenosis was the resistance category. Similarly, under no-choice conditions, planthoppers laid 29% fewer eggs in D518 than in IR64, but they oviposited more in 'D1131' and TN1. Honeydew excretion was greater on D1131 seedlings but slightly lower on D518 than on IR64. Nymphal survival and adult female weight did not differ among rice cultivars. D518 showed higher tolerance of N. lugens infestations than IR64. Genetic analysis of the F1, F2, and F3 populations derived from D518 x IR64 revealed that resistance in D518 is dominant and controlled by a single gene. Despite the variation in resistance to N. lugens, both mutants and IR64 performed similarly in the field. The mutant D518 is a new source of durable resistance to N. lugens, mainly due to enhanced antixenosis to female hoppers for settling and oviposition. 相似文献

Naturally occurring allelic variations underlying complex traits are useful resources for the functional analysis of plant genes. To facilitate the genetic analysis of complex traits and the use of marker-assisted breeding in rice, we developed a wide population consisting of 217 chromosome single-segment substitution lines (SSSLs) using Oryza sativa L. 'Hua-Jing-Xian74' (HJX74), an elite Indica cultivar, as recipient, and 6 other accessions, including 2 Indica and 4 Japonica, as donors. Each SSSL contains a single substituted chromosome segment derived from 1 of the 6 donors in the genetic background of HJX74. The total size of the substituted segments in the SSSL population was 4695.0 cM, which was 3.1 times that of rice genome. To evaluate the potential application of these SSSLs for quantitative trait loci detection, phenotypic variations of the quantitative traits of days to heading and grain length in the population consisting of 210 SSSLs were observed under natural environmental conditions. The results demonstrated that there was a wide range of phenotypic variation in the traits in the SSSL population. These genetic materials will be powerful tools to dissect complex traits into a set of monogenic loci and to assign phenotypic values to different alleles at the locus of interest. 相似文献

Transgenics for the expression of β-carotene biosynthetic pathway in the endosperm were developed in indica rice background
by introducing phytoene synthase (psy) and phytoene desaturase (crtI) genes through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, employing non-antibiotic positive selectable marker phosphomannose isomerase (pmi). Twenty-seven transgenic lines were characterized for the structural organization of T-DNA inserts and the expression of
transgenes in terms of total carotenoid and β-carotene accumulation in the endosperm. Ten lines were also studied for the
inheritance of transgenic loci to the T1 progenies. Copy number and sites of integration of the transgenes ranged from one to four. Almost 50% of the transgenic lines
showed rearrangement of T-DNA inserts. However, most of the rearrangements occurred in the crtI expression cassette which is adjacent to the right T-DNA border. Differences in copy numbers of psy and crtI were also observed indicating partial T-DNA integration. Beyond T-DNA border transfer was also detected in 25% of the lines.
Fifty percent of the lines studied showed single Mendelian locus inheritance, while two lines showed bi-locus inheritance
in the T1 progenies. Some of the lines segregating in 3:1 ratio showed two sites of integration on restriction digestion analysis indicating
that the T-DNA insertion sites were tightly linked. Three transgenic lines showed nonparental types in the segregating progenies,
indicating unstable transgenic locus. Evidences from the HPLC analysis showed that multiple copies of transgenes had a cumulative
effect on the accumulation of carotenoid in the endosperm. T1 progenies, in general, accumulated more carotenoids than their respective parents, the highest being 6.77 μg/g of polished
seeds. High variation in the carotenoid accumulation was observed within the T1 progenies which could be attributed to the variation in the structural organization and expression of transgenes, minor variations
in the genetic background within the progeny plants, or differences in the plant microenvironments. The study identified lines
worthy of further multiplication and breeding based on transgene structural integrity in the segregating progeny and high
expression levels in terms of the β-carotene accumulation. 相似文献

Genetic dissection of the resistance to Rice stripe virus present in the indica rice cultivar 'IR24'
Rice stripe disease, caused by Rice stripe virus (RSV) and transmitted by the small brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus Fallen), is one of the most serious viral diseases of rice in temperate East Asian production regions. Prior quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping has established that Oryza sativa L. subsp. indica 'IR24' carries positive alleles at the three loci qSTV3, qSTV7, and qSTV11-i. Here, we report an advanced backcross analysis based on three selected chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs), each predicted to carry one of these three QTL. Three sets of BC(4)F(2:3) populations were bred from a cross between the critical CSSL and its recurrent parent Oryza sativa L. subsp. japonica 'Asominori'. Both qSTV3 and qSTV11-i were detected in their respective population, but qSTV7 was not. An allelic analysis based on a known carrier of the major RSV resistance gene Stvb-i, which is located on chromosome 11, showed that qSTV11-i was not allelic with Stvb-i. A large mapping population was used to delimit the location of qSTV11-i to a 73.6-kb region. The de novo markers developed for this purpose will be useful as marker-assisted selection tools in efforts to introduce qSTV11-i into breeding programmes aiming to improve the level of RSV resistance. 相似文献

The efficiency of marker-assisted backcross for the introgression of a quantitative trait locus (QTL) from a donor line into
a recipient line depends on the stability of QTL expression. QTLs for six quality traits in tomato (fruit weight, firmness,
locule number, soluble solid content, sugar content and titratable acidity) were studied in order to investigate their individual
effect and their stability over years, generations and genetic backgrounds. Five chromosome regions carrying fruit quality
QTLs were transferred following a marker-assisted backcross scheme from a cherry tomato line into three modern lines with
larger fruits. Three sets of genotypes corresponding to three generations were compared: (1) an RIL population, which contained
50% of each parental genome, (2) three BC3S1 populations which segregated simultaneously for the five regions of interest
but were almost fully homozygous for the recipient genome on the eight chromosomes carrying no QTL and (3) three sets of QTL-NILs
(BC3S3 lines) which differed from the recipient line only in one of the five regions. QTL detection was performed in each
generation, in each genetic background and during 2 successive years for QTL-NILs. About half of the QTLs detected in QTL-NILs
were detected in both years. Eight of the ten QTLs detected in RILs were recovered in the QTL-NILs with the genetic background
used for the initial QTL mapping experiment, with the exception of two QTLs for fruit firmness. Several new QTLs were detected.
In the two other genetic backgrounds, the number of QTLs in common with the RILs was lower, but several new QTLs were also
detected in advanced generations. 相似文献

The success of contemporary breeding programmes involving genetic engineering depends on the stability of transgene expression
over many generations. We studied the stability of transgene expression in 40 independent rice plant lines representing 11
diverse cultivated varieties. Each line contained three or four different transgenes delivered by particle bombardment, either
by cotransformation or in the form of a cointegrate vector. Approximately 75% of the lines (29/40) demonstrated Mendelian
inheritance of all transgenes, suggesting integration at a single locus. We found that levels of transgene expression varied
among different lines, but primary transformants showing high-level expression of the gna, gusA, hpt and bar transgenes faithfully transmitted these traits to progeny. Furthermore, we found that cry1Ac and cry2A transgene expression was stably inherited when primary transformants showed moderate or low-level expression. Our results
show that six transgenes (three markers and three insect-resistance genes) were stably expressed over four generations of
transgenic rice plants. We showed that transgene expression was stable in lines of all the rice genotypes we analysed. Our
data represent a step forward in the transfer of rice genetic engineering technology from model varieties to elite breeding
lines grown in different parts of the world.

Dissecting the Genetic Basis of Extremely Large Grain Shape in Rice Cultivar 'JZ1560' 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Rice grain shape,grain length(GL),width(GW),thickness(GT)and length-to-width ratio(LWR),are usually controlled by multiple quantitative trait locus(QTL).To elucidate the genetic basis of extremely large grain shape,QTL analysis was performed using an F2 population derived from a cross between a japonica cultivar ’JZ1560’(extremely large grain)and a contrasting indica cultivar ’FAZ1’(small grain).A total number of 24 QTLs were detected on seven different chromosomes.QTLs for GL,GW,GT and LWR explained 11.6%,95.62%,91.5%and 89.9%of total phenotypic variation,respectively.Many QTLs pleiotropically controlled different grain traits,contributing complex traits correlation.GW2 and qSW5/GW5,which have been cloned previously to control GW,showed similar chromosomal locations with qGW2-I/qGT2-I/qLWR2-2 and qGW5-2/qLWR5-l and should be the right candidate genes.Plants pyramiding GW2 and qSW5/GW5 showed a significant increase in GW compared with those carrying one of the two major QTLs.Furthermore,no significant QTL interaction was observed between GW2 and qSW5/GW5.These results suggested that GW2 and qSW5/GW5 might work in independent pathways to regulate grain traits.’JZ1560’ alleles underlying all QTLs contributed an increase in GW and GT and the accumulation of additive effects generates the extremely large grain shape in ’JZ1560’. 相似文献

Pyramiding three bacterial blight resistance genes (xa5, xa13 and Xa21) using marker-assisted selection into indica rice cultivar PR106 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Bacterial blight (BB) of rice caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is a major disease of rice in several countries. Three BB resistance genes, xa5, xa13 and Xa21, were pyramided into cv. PR106, which is widely grown in Punjab, India, using marker-assisted selection. Lines of PR106 with
pyramided genes were evaluated after inoculation with 17 isolates of the pathogen from the Punjab and six races of Xoo from the Philippines. Genes in combinations were found to provide high levels of resistance to the predominant Xoo isolates from the Punjab and six races from the Philippines. Lines of PR106 with two and three BB resistance genes were also
evaluated under natural conditions at 31 sites in commercial fields. The combination of genes provided a wider spectrum of
resistance to the pathogen population prevalent in the region; Xa21 was the most effective, followed by xa5. Resistance gene xa13 was the least effective against Xoo. Only 1 of the BB isolates, PX04, was virulent on the line carrying Xa21 but avirulent on the lines having xa5 and xa13 genes in combination with Xa21.
