Fatty Acyl-ACP thioesterase (FAT) is a key enzyme controlling oil biosynthesis in plant seeds. FATs can be divided into two subfamilies, FATA and FATB according to their amino acid sequences and substrate specificity. The Upland cotton genome contains 20 GhFAT genes, amongst which 6 genes were of the GhFATA subfamily and 14 of the GhFATB subfamily. The 20 GhFAT genes are unevenly distributed on 14 chromosomes. The GhFATA genes have 5 or 7 exons and the GhFATB genes have 6 or 7 exons. All GhFAT proteins have the conserved Acyl-ACP_TE domain and PLN02370 super family, the typical characteristics of plant thioesterases. Analyses of the expression level of GhFATs and the compositions of fatty acid in 5–60 days-post-anthesis seeds showed that the ratio of saturated fatty acids to unsaturated fatty acids was consistent with the expression profile of GhFATB12, GhFATB3, and GhFATB10; the ratio of monounsaturated fatty acid to polyunsaturated fatty acids was consistent with the expression profile of GhFATA3. The oil contents of mature cottonseeds were positively correlated with the contents of palmitic acid and linolenic acid as well as seed vigor. These results provide essential information for further exploring the role(s) of the specific GhFATs in determining oil biosynthesis and cottonseed compositions. 相似文献

Villin (VLN) is considered to be one of the most important actin-binding proteins, participates in modulating the actin cytoskeleton dynamics, plays essential role in plant development and resisting adverse environments. However, systematic studies of the VLN gene family have not been reported in cotton (Gossypium). In this study, 14 GhVLNs were identified in G. hirsutum. These GhVLN genes were distributed in 6 A-subgenome chromosomes and 6 D-subgenome chromosomes of the allotetraploid upland cotton and classified into three phylogenetical groups based on the classification model of AtVLNs. In addition, the 14 GhVLN genes have highly conserved gene structure and motif architecture. The number of introns was ranged from 18 to 22 and the length of protein sequences was varied from 901 to 1077. Six gelsolin homology domains, G1–G6, and villin headpiece domain, VHP, were existed in all GhVLNs with the exception of two VLNs (GhVLN6 and GhVLN13) which lacked VHP. Cis-elements analysis revealed that the promoter regions of GhVLNs contained various light related components and also elements responsible for phytohormones and stresses response, indicating that, when subjected to those adverse environments, cotton plants may activate the response system by targeting VLN genes to survive the crisis. Heatmaps showed that the GhVLN genes exhibited various expression patterns, some were accumulated in certain tissues, root, petal, stamen or elongating fibers, and some were obviously induced by environmental changes. Especially GhVLN3 and GhVLN10 were highly and preferentially expressed in elongating fibers and distinctly upregulated by abiotic (salt, PEG, cold and heat) and biotic (Verticillium dahliae V991) stresses. This study may provide useful information for biological function identification of GhVLN genes and gene resources for creating high-quality and various resistant cotton germplasms. 相似文献

The lignocellulosic crop Miscanthus spp. has been identified as a good candidate for biomass production. The
responses of Miscanthus sinensis Anderss. to salinity were studied to satisfy the needs for high yields in marginal
areas and to avoid competition with food production. The results indicated that the relative advantages of the
tolerant accession over the sensitive one under saline conditions were associated with restricted Na+ accumulation
in shoots. Seedlings of two accessions (salt-tolerant ‘JM0119’ and salt-sensitive ‘JM0099’) were subjected to 0
(control), 100, 200, and 300 mM NaCl stress to better understand the salt-induced biochemical responses of genes
involved in Na+ accumulation in M. sinensis. The adaptation responses of genes encoding for Na+
/H+ antiporters,
NHX1 and SOS1 to NaCl stress were examined in JM0119 and JM0099.The cDNA sequences of genes examined
were highly conserved among the relatives of M. sinensis based on the sequencing on approximate 600 bp-long
cDNA fragments obtained from degenerate PCR. These salt-induced variations of gene expression investigated by
quantitative real-time PCR provided evidences for insights of the molecular mechanisms of salt tolerance in
M. sinensis. The expression of NHX1 was up-regulated by salt stress in JM0119 shoot and root tissues. However,
it was hardly affected in JM0099 shoot tissue except for a significant increase at the 100 mM salt treatment, and it
was salt-suppressed in the JM0099 root tissue. In the root tissue, the expression of SOS1 was induced by the high
salt treatment in JM0119 but repressed by all salt treatments in JM0099. Thus, the remarkably higher expression
of NHX1 and SOS1 were associated with the resistance to Na+ toxicity by regulation of the Na+ influx, efflux, and
sequestration under different salt conditions. 相似文献

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is a key fiber crop of great commercial
importance. Numerous phytopathogens decimate crop production by causing
various diseases. During July-August 2018, leaf spot symptoms were recurrently
observed on cotton leaves in Rahim Yar Khan, Pakistan and adjacent areas. Infected
leaf samples were collected and plated on potato dextrose agar (PDA) media.
Causal agent of cotton leaf spot was isolated, characterized and identified as
Aspergillus tubingensis based on morphological and microscopic observations.
Conclusive identification of pathogen was done on the comparative molecular
analysis of CaM and β-tubulin gene sequences. BLAST analysis of both sequenced
genes showed 99% similarity with A. tubingensis. Koch’s postulates were followed
to confirm the pathogenicity of the isolated fungus. Healthy plants were inoculated
with fungus and similar disease symptoms were observed. Fungus was re-isolated
and identified to be identical to the inoculated fungus. To our knowledge, this is the
first report describing the involvement of A. tubingensis in causing leaf spot disease
of cotton in Pakistan and around the world. 相似文献

Grape pistil has an important influence on fruit size and quality. However, there were few studies on grape ovary, and the development process of the ovary is still unclear. Therefore, in this paper, four different grape varieties with different lengths of small inflorescences, namely ‘Musct Hambourg’ grape (Vitis vinifera), ‘Concord’ grape (Vitis labrusca), ‘ShanPuTao’ grape (Vitis amurensis) and ‘GongNiang2Hao’ grape (Vitis amurensis × Vitis vinifera) were used as test materials. Four varieties ovary were significant differences by means of stereomicroscope, paraffin section. The expression of ovary determining gene VvAGAMOUS (VvAG) and its development related genes VvCRABS CLAW (VvCRC) andVvAGAMOUS-LIKE 11 (VvAGL11) with similar functions during the development of different grape varieties were preliminarily explored using fluorescence quantitative test. The relationship between VvAG and VvCRC, VvAG and VvAGL11 were analyzed using Y1H assay. Our results showed that there were obvious abdominal sutures on the surface of expect for ‘Musct Hambourg’ grape, and existing poly carpels. The ovary development of ‘ShanPuTao’ and ‘GongNiang2Hao’ grape was completed when the inflorescence length was less than 1 cm, while the ‘Concord’ and ‘Musct Hambourg’ grape were fully developed when the length of inflorescence was 3–4 and 4–5 cm, respectively. VvAG and VvCRC began to express in large quantities after the formation of stamen primordia, while VvAGL11 during the forming of ovule primordia. Therefore, VvAG and VvCRC mainly regulated the development of stamens and carpels and also promote the development of ovules, while VvAGL11 major regulated the development of ovules. The promoters of VvCRC and VvAGL11 were bound by VvAG. This study provides an important theoretical basis for further research on the molecular mechanism of grape ovary development. 相似文献

EARLY FLOWERING 3 (ELF3), a light zeitnehmer (time-taker) gene, regulates circadian rhythm and photoperiodic flowering in Arabidopsis, rice, and barley. The three orthologs of ELF3 (TaELF3-1AL, TaELF3-1BL, and
TaELF3-1DL) have been identified in wheat too, and one gene, TaELF3-1DL, has been associated with heading
date. However, the basic characteristics of these three genes and the roles of the other two genes, TaELF3-1BL
and, TaELF3-1AL, remain unknown. Therefore, the present study obtained the coding sequences of the three
orthologs (TaELF3-1AL, TaELF3-1BL, and TaELF3-1DL) of ELF3 from bread wheat and characterized them
and investigated the role of TaELF3-1BL in Arabidopsis. Protein sequence comparison revealed similarities among
the three TaELF3 genes of wheat; however, they were different from the Arabidopsis ELF3. Real-time quantitative
PCR revealed TaELF3 expression in all wheat tissues tested, with the highest expression in young spikes; the three
genes showed rhythmic expression patterns also. Furthermore, the overexpression of the TaELF3-1BL gene in
Arabidopsis delayed flowering, indicating their importance in flowering. Subsequent overexpression of
TaELF3-1BL in the Arabidopsis ELF3 nonfunctional mutant (elf3 mutant) eliminated its early flowering phenotype, and slightly delayed flowering. The wild-type Arabidopsis overexpressing TaELF3-1BL demonstrated
reduced expression levels of flowering-related genes, such as CONSTANS (AtCO), FLOWERING LOCUS T (AtFT),
and GIGANTEA (AtGI). Thus, the study characterized the three TaELF3 genes and associated TaELF3-1BL with
flowering in Arabidopsis, suggesting a role in regulating flowering in wheat too. These findings provide a basis for
further research on TaELF3 functions in wheat. 相似文献

Barley grain is a valuable source of β-glucan, which is an important
component of dietary fiber with significant human health benefits. Although the
genetic basis of β-glucan biosynthesis has been widely studied, a genome-wide
association study (GWAS) is still required for a scan of the candidate genes
related to the complex quantitative trait based on the high-quality barley reference
genome. In this study, a GWAS was conducted using a population composed of
87 barley landraces (39 hulled and 48 hulless, β-glucan from 2.07% to 6.56%)
with 191,098 nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) markers to cover the chromosomes with the highest density. The population was divided into four sub-populations (POP1~POP4), and the β-glucan content in POP2 was significantly higher
than that in other groups, in which most of the hulless barley landraces are from
Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China. Among seven SNP markers identified by GWAS,
two (SNP2 and SNP3) of them showed positive correlation to β-glucan trait and
the remaining five (SNP1, SNP4, SNP5, SNP6 and SNP7) showed the negative
relationship. Two candidate genes linked to SNP7, HORVU7Hr1G000320 and
HORVU7Hr1G000040, belong to the nucleotide triphosphate hydrolase superfamily which is probable to affect the activities of β-glucan synthase. Another
candidate gene associated with SNP1, HORVU1Hr1G000010, is possibly
involved in sugar response. In conclusion, our results provide new insights into
the genetic basis of β-glucan accumulation in barley grains, and the discovery of
new SNP markers distributed in each chromosome and the associated candidate genes
will be valuable for the breeding of functional barley varieties with high β-glucan. 相似文献

Gibberellin 2-oxidases (GA2ox) are important enzymes that maintain the balance of bioactive GAs in plants. GA2ox genes have been identified and characterized in many plants, but these genes were not investigated in Brassica napus. Here, we identified 31 GA2ox genes in B. napus and 15 of these BnaGA2ox genes were distributed in the A and C subgenomes. Subcellular localization predictions suggested that all BnaGA2ox proteins were localized in the cytoplasm, and gene structure analysis showed that the BnaGA2ox genes contained 2–4 exons. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that BnGA2ox family proteins in monocotyledons and dicotyledons can be divided into four groups, including two C19-GA2ox and two C20-GA2ox clades. Group 4 is a C20-GA2ox Class discovered recently. Most BnaGA2ox genes had a syntenic relationship with AtGA2ox genes. BnaGA2ox genes in the C subgenome had experienced stronger selection pressure than genes in the A subgenome. BnaGA2ox genes were highly expressed in specific tissues such as those involved in growth and development, and most of them were mainly involved in abiotic responses, regulation of phytohormones and growth and development. Our study provided a valuable evolutionary analysis of GA2ox genes in monocotyledons and dicotyledons, as well as an insight into the biological functions of GA2ox family genes in B. napus. 相似文献

Phytophthora nicotianae causes substantial economic losses in most countries where tobacco is produced. At present, the control of P. nicotianae mainly depends on chemical methods, with considerable environmental and
health issues. We investigated the effects of ethanol extracts from Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (SBG) and Magnolia officinalis (MO). On mycelial growth, sporangium formation, and zoospore release of P. nicotianae. Both
extracts inhibited the growth of P. nicotianae, with mycelial growth inhibition rates of 88.92% and 93.92%, respectively, at 40 mg/mL, and EC50 values of 5.39 and 5.74 mg/mL, respectively. The underlying mechanisms were the
inhibition of sporangium formation, the reduction of zoospore number, and the destruction of the mycelium
structure. At an SBG extract concentration of 16.17 mg/mL, the inhibition rates for sporangia and zoospores were
98.66% and 99.39%, respectively. At an MO extract concentration of 2.87 mg/mL, the production of sporangia
and zoospores was completely inhibited. The hyphae treated with the two plant extracts showed different degrees
of deformation and damage. Hyphae treated with SBG extract showed adhesion and local swelling, whereas treatment with MO extract resulted in broken hyphae. Mixture of the extracts resulted in a good synergistic effect. 相似文献

To develop cold-tolerant maize germplasms and identify the activation of INDUCER OF CRT/DRE-BINDING FACTOR EXPRESSION (ICE1) expression in response to cold stress, RT-PCR was used to amplify the complete open reading frame sequence of the ICE1 gene and construct the plant expression vector pCAMBIA3301-ICE1-Bar. Immature maize embryos and calli were transformed with the recombinant vector using Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformations. From the regenerated plantlets, three T1 lines were screened and identified by PCR. A Southern blot analysis showed that a single copy of the ICE1 gene was integrated into the maize (Zea mays L.) genomes of the three T1 generations. Under low temperature-stress conditions (4°C), the relative conductivity levels decreased by 27.51%–31.44%, the proline concentrations increased by 12.50%–17.50%, the malondialdehyde concentrations decreased by 16.78%–18.37%, and the peroxidase activities increased by 19.60%–22.89% in the T1 lines compared with those of the control. A real-time quantitative PCR analysis showed that the ICE1 gene was ectopically expressed in the roots, stems, and leaves of the T1 lines. ICE1 positively regulates the expression of the CBF genes in response to cold stress. Thus, this study showed the successful transformation of maize with the ICE1 gene, resulting in the generation of a new maize germplasm that had increased tolerance to cold stress. 相似文献

Gibberellic acid controlled the key developmental processes of the life cycle of landing plants, and regulated the growth and development of plants. In this study, a novel gibberellin receptor gene EuGID1 was obtained from Eucommia ulmoides Oliver. The cDNA of EuGID1 was 1556 bp, and the open reading frame was 1029 bp, which encoded 343 amino acids. EuGID1 had the homology sequence with the hormone-sensitive lipase family. Amino acid sequence alignment confirmed EuGID1 protein had the highest homology with the GID1 protein of Manihot esculenta. EuGID1 was located in the nucleus and cell membrane and had expression in four plant organs. Overexpression of EuGID1 in transgenic Arabidopsis plants promoted plant elongation and increased siliques yield. 相似文献

Phytosulfokine-α (PSK-α), a sulfated pentapeptide with the sequence
YIYTQ, is encoded by a small precursor gene family in Arabidopsis. PSK-α regulates multiple growth and developmental processes as a novel peptide hormone.
Despite its importance, functions of PSK-α in M. truncatula growth remains
unknown. In this study, we identified five genes to encode PSK-α precursors in
M. truncatula. All of these precursors possess conserved PSK-α signature motif.
Expression pattern analysis of these MtPSK genes revealed that each gene was
expressed in a tissue-specific or ubiquitous pattern and three of them were remarkably expressed in root. Treatment of M. truncatula seedlings with synthetic PSK-
α peptide significantly promoted root elongation. In addition, expression analysis
of downstream genes by RNA-seq and qRT-PCR assays suggested that PSK-α
signaling might regulate cell wall structure via PMEI-PME module to promote
root cell growth. Taken together, our results shed light on the mechanism by
which PSK-α promotes root growth in M. truncatula, providing a new resource
for improvement of root growth in agriculture. 相似文献
