A comparative investigation of the organization and expression of the mitochondrial genome in fertile and cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) sunflower (Helianthus annuus) has been undertaken. A region of mitochondrial genome variation between the two phenotypes has been located in the 3' flanking region of the gene encoding the alpha subunit of the F1 ATPase (atpA). Physical mapping and sequence analysis have been used to show that a rearrangement involving an inversion and an insertion has occurred immediately downstream of the atpA coding region in the mitochondrial DNA from sterile sunflower. This rearrangement has resulted in the creation of a new open reading frame (ORFc) which is co-transcribed with atpA in sterile sunflower. In organello labelling of mitochondrial translation products from the two types of sunflower shows that a 15 kDa protein is synthesized by the mitochondria from sterile sunflower but not by those from fertile plants. The ORFc sequence could encode this 15 kDa protein which may be causally related to the CMS phenotype. 相似文献

Sterility in the universally exploited PET1-CMS system of sunflower is associated with the expression of orfH522, a novel mitochondrial gene. Definitive evidence that ORFH522 is directly responsible for male sterility is lacking.
To test the hypothesis that ORFH522 is sufficient to induce male sterility, a set of chimeric constructs were developed. The
cDNA of orfH522 was cloned in-frame with yeast coxIV pre-sequence, and was expressed under tapetum-specific promoter TA29 (construct designated as TCON). For developing control
vectors, orfH522 was cloned without the transit peptide under TA29 promoter (TON) or orfH522 was cloned with or without transit peptide under the constitutive CaMV35S promoter (SCOP and SOP). Among several independent
transformants obtained with each of the gene cassettes, one third of the transgenics (6/17) with TCON were completely male
sterile while more than 10 independent transformants obtained with each of the control vectors were fertile. The male sterile
plants were morphologically similar to fertile plants, but had anthers that remained below the stigmatic surface at anthesis.
RT-PCR analysis of the sterile plants confirmed the anther-specific expression of orfH522 and bright-field microscopy demonstrated ablation of the tapetal cell layer. Premature DNA fragmentation and programmed
cell death was observed at meiosis stage in the anthers of sterile plants. Stable transmission of induced male sterility trait
was confirmed in test cross progeny. This constitutes the first report at demonstrating the induction of male sterility by
introducing orfH522 gene that could be useful for genetic engineering of male sterility.
