Self-incompatibility is a genetic mechanism enforcing cross-pollination in plants. Hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) expresses the sporophytic type of self-incompatibility, for which the molecular genetic basis is characterized only in Brassica. The hypothesis that the hazelnut genome contains homologs of Brassica self-incompatibility genes was tested. The S-locus glycoprotein gene (SLG) and the kinase-encoding domain of the S-receptor kinase (SRK) gene of B. oleracea L. were used to probe blots of genomic DNA from six genotypes of hazelnut. Weak hybridization with the SLG probe was detected for all hazelnut genotypes tested; however, no hybridization was detected with PCR-generated probes corresponding to two conserved regions of the SLG gene. One of these PCR probes included the region of SLG encoding the 11 invariant cysteine residues that are an important structural feature of all S-family genes. The present evidence suggests that hazelnut DNA hybridizing to SLG differs significantly from the Brassica gene, and that the S-genes cloned from Brassica will not be useful for exploring self-incompatibility in hazelnut.  相似文献

In Brassica, the S-locus glycoprotein (SLG) gene has been strongly implicated in the self-incompatibility reaction. Several alleles of this locus have been sequenced, and accordingly grouped as class I (corresponding to dominant S-alleles) and class II (recessive). We recently showed that a self-compatible (Sc) line of Brassica oleracea expressed a class II-like SLG (SLG-Sc) gene. Here, we report that the SLG-Sc glycoprotein is electrophoretically and immunochemically very similar to the recessive SLG-S15 glycoprotein, and is similarly expressed in stigmatic papillae. Moreover, by seed yield analysis, we observe that both alleles are associated with a self-compatibility response, in contrast with the other known recessive S haplotypes (S2 and S5). By genomic DNA blot analysis, we show the existence of molecular homologies between the Sc and S15 haplotypes, but demonstrate that they are not identical. On the other hand, we also report that the S2 haplotype expresses very low amounts of SLG glycoproteins, although it exhibits a self-incompatible phenotype. These results strongly question the precise role of the SLG gene in the molecular mechanisms that control the self-incompatibility reaction of Brassica.  相似文献

Summary A self-incompatible canola-quality Brassica napus ssp. oleifera line (W1) was generated by introgressing the S-locus from a self-incompatible B. campestris plant into the Westar cultivar. Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with primers derived from conserved regions in S-locus glycoprotein (SLG) alleles, the central region of the active SLG gene (910) was obtained. The remaining portions of the cDNA for this 910 gene were subsequently cloned using the PCR-rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) procedure. Sequence analysis revealed that the 910 cDNA show a high degree of sequence similarity to SLG alleles associated with Class I self-incompatible lines. The 910 gene was found to be absent in the original self-compatible cv. Westar (B. napus) and segregated with self-incompatibility in a mixed population generated from a cross between self-incompatible W1 and self-compatible Westar. RNA blot analysis indicated that high levels of 910 mRNAs were present in the stigma as buds approached anthesis. Thus, the SLG allele of W1 transferred from B. campestris via backcrosses to a line of cv. Westar has been identified.  相似文献

Sporophytic self-incompatibility of diploid Ipomoea trifida is controlled by a single multiallelic locus, the S-locus. To make a fine linkage map around the S-locus, AFLP (amplified restriction fragment length polymorphism) and AMF (AFLP-based mRNA fingerprinting) analyses were performed using bulked genomic DNA and mRNA, respectively, from several plants of each S-haplotype in a segregating population. Putative S-haplotype-specific fragments were obtained and subjected to RFLP analysis of genomic DNA to confirm genetic linkage to the S-locus. Eight DNA markers co-segregating with the S-haplotype were identified and mapped in close proximity to the S-locus. One of them, AAM-68, was the most tightly linked to the S-locus, because no recombinants were detected in the 873 plants of the segregating population analyzed. The S-locus region was defined to be within 1.25 cM in the linkage map. These markers are useful for positional cloning of the S-locus genes in Ipomoea.  相似文献

Phenotypic diversity of self-incompatibility (S) alleles within nine natural populations ofLycopersicon peruvianum was investigated. Only 7 incompatible responses were observed of a total of 276 unique combinations tested, on the basis of controlled pollinations, indicating the large number of alleles that exist within these populations. Molecular weight polymorphism for specific major stylar proteins observed on SDS-PAGE was also evident in two of the populations examined. Five proteins were shown to map to theS locus and to be associated with differentS alleles through controlled pollinations and segregation of the proteins. Two of theseS related proteins had been described previously in terms of spatial and temporal expression consistent with their involvement in self-incompatibility (Mauet al., Planta 169, 184–191, 1986). A mapping population derived from a fully compatible cross was used to establish linkage of theS locus to two DNA markers,CD15 andTG184, that lie on chromosome 1. The order of the markers and estimates of map distances are given.  相似文献

Summary In Brassica oleracea, the pollen-stigma interaction of self-incompatibility is controlled by a single genetically defined locus designated S. Molecular studies have identified two genes that are tightly linked to the classically defined S locus: The S-Locus Glycoprotein (SLG) gene and the S-Receptor Kinase (SRK) gene. In previous RFLP linkage analyses with probes specific for SLG and SRK, we were unable to identify any recombination events between SLG, SRK, and self-incompatibility phenotype. In this paper, we use pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) in conjunction with DNA blot analysis to characterize the S-locus region from two highly divergent self-incompatibility genotypes, S 2 and S 6. We establish the physical linkage of SLG and SRK in each genotype, and demonstrate that the two genes are separated by a maximum distance of 220 kb in the S 6 genotype and 350 kb in the S 2 genotype. Furthermore, a comparison of the data from the two genotypes reveals that a high level of polymorphism exists across the entire S-locus region.  相似文献

Summary A cDNA sequence homologous to the Brassica self-incompatibility locus specific glycoprotein (SLSG) sequence was isolated from stigmas of B. oleracea plants homozygous for the S5 allele. The nucleotide sequence of this cDNA was obtained and compared with the S6 allelic form of the SLSG. Evidence is presented which indicates that this sequence does not specify the self-incompatibility response of pollen.Abbreviations SDS sodium dodecyl sulphate - PVP polyvinylpyrrolidone - BSA bovine serum albumin - SLSG self-incompatibility locus specific glycoprotein  相似文献

Self-incompatibility in Brassica is controlled by a single, highly polymorphic locus that extends over several hundred kilobases and includes several expressed genes. Two stigma proteins, the S locus receptor kinase (SRK) and the S locus glycoprotein (SLG), are encoded by genes located at the S locus and are thought to be involved in the recognition of self-pollen by the stigma. We report here that two different SLG genes, SLGA and SLGB, are located at the S locus in the class II, pollen-recessive S15 haplotype. Both genes are interrupted by a single intron; however, SLGA encodes both soluble and membrane-anchored forms of SLG, whereas SLGB encodes only soluble SLG proteins. Thus, including SRK, the S locus in the S15 haplotype contains at least three members of the S gene family. The protein products of these three genes have been characterized, and each SLG glycoform was assigned to an SLG gene. Evidence is presented that the S2 and S5 haplotypes carry only one or the other of the SLG genes, indicating either that they are redundant or that they are not required for the self-incompatibility response.  相似文献

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is particularly well suited for the detection of rare sequences. Taking advantage of the recent isolation of sequences associated with stigma self-incompatibility inBrassica oleracea, we used PCR amplifications with primers synthesized to the S6 cDNA sequence, to demonstrate the presence of mRNA homologous to stigmaS-locus gene (SLG) in anthers during early microsporogenesis. In addition, otherS-locus-related (SLR) sequences were shown to be transcribed in sexual as well as in vegetative tissues (roots, leaves), suggesting that the SLG family might be involved not only in pollen-stigma recognition, but more generally in various forms of plant cell signalling processes. This information corroborates the recent discovery of a cDNA-deduced protein kinase from maize roots, whose extracellular receptor displays high homology withBrassica S-locus-specific glycoproteins.Communicated by H.F.

In Brassica species, self-incompatibility has been mapped genetically to a single chromosomal location. In this region, there are two closely linked genes coding for the S locus glycoprotein (SLG) and S locus receptor kinase (SRK). They appear to comprise the pistil component of the self-incompatibility reaction. SLG and SRK are thought to recognize an unknown pollen component on the incompatible pollen, and the gene encoding this pollen component must also be linked to the SLG and SRK genes. To further our understanding of self-incompatibility, the chromosomal region carrying the SLG and SRK genes has been studied. The physical region between the SLG-910 and the SRK-910 genes in the Brassica napus W1 line was cloned, and a search for genes expressed in the anther revealed two additional S locus genes located downstream of the SLG-910 gene. Because these two genes are novel and are conserved at other S alleles, we designated them as SLL1 and SLL2 (for S locus-linked genes 1 and 2, respectively). The SLL1 gene is S locus specific, whereas the SLL2 gene is not only present at the S locus but is also present in other parts of the genomes in both self-incompatible and self-compatible Brassica ssp lines. Expression of the SLL1 gene is only detectable in anthers of self-incompatible plants and is developmentally regulated during anther development, whereas the SLL2 gene is expressed in anthers and stigmas in both self-incompatible and self-compatible plants, with the highest levels of expression occurring in the stigmas. Although SLL1 and SLL2 are linked to the S locus region, it is not clear whether these genes function in self-incompatibility or serve some other cellular roles in pollen-pistil functions.  相似文献

The self-incompatibility (SI) character in Brassica is controlled by the S locus which contains several genes. One of them, the SLG (S Locus Glycoprotein) gene encodes a soluble glycoprotein expressed in the stigma. We used antibodies directed against SLGs and a combination of isoelectric focusing (IEF) and immunoblotting methods to identify S haplotypes, the allelic forms of the S locus, in commercial and open-pollinated varieties of broccoli and romanesco. We found 23 class-I and three class-II S haplotypes among the 199 plants analysed. Nevertheless, for a few plants, SLGs were not detected by the antibodies and these plants, designated Hw for “white pattern” haplotypes, were apparently homozygous at the S locus. Diallel crosses between Hw plants revealed the existence of four different Hw haplotypes. Several hypotheses are discussed to explain the non-recognition of the SLG products in these Hw haplotypes. The data of the present study were compared with those obtained in a previous investigation carried out on cauliflower. As in cauliflower, we observed a high frequency of the sx haplotype and a great variability in the strength of the SI phenotype for sx plants (in the homozygous or heterozygous state). For both broccoli and romanesco, about 50% of the plants presented a SI phenotype strong enough to be exploited for hybrid production. Received: 27 July 1998 / Accepted: 5 August 1998  相似文献

Summary An SLG gene derived from the S-locus and encoding and S-locus-specific glycoprotein of Brassica campestris L. was introduced via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation into B. oleracea L. A self-incompatible hybrid and another with partial self-compatibility were used as recipients. The transgenic plants were altered in their pollen-stigma interaction and were fully compatible upon self-pollination. Reciprocal crosses between the transgenic plants and untransformed control plants indicated that the stigma reaction was changed in one recipient strain while the pollen reaction was altered in the other. Due to interspecific incompatibility, we could not demonstrate whether or not the introduced SLG gene confers a new allelic specificity in the transgenic plants. Our results show that the introduced SLG gene perturbs the self-incompatibility phenotype of stigma and pollen.  相似文献

Summary Pistil proteins associated with three different S-alleles of the self-incompatibility locus (S locus) in Solanum chacoense have been identified which cosegregated with their respective S alleles in a series of genetic crosses involving six S. chacoense plants, their F1 progeny, and backcrosses. The molecular weights of these three S-allele-associated proteins, designated S1 S2, and S3, were 29 kDa, 30 kDa, and 31 kDa, respectively. They were all basic proteins with a similar pI of approximately 8.6. They have been found only in the stigma and style of the pistil where their maximum synthesis was reached at one day before anthesis. Their rate of synthesis in both self- and cross-pollinated pistils was the same as that in the unpollinated pistil until 2 days after pollination.On sabbatical leave from Laboratoire de Genetique et Physiologie du Developpement des Plantes, C.N.R.S., F-91190 Gifsur-Yvette, France  相似文献

A genomic clone of the S11 allele from the self-incompatibility locus (S locus) in Solanum chacoense Bitt. has been isolated by cross-hybridization to the S. chacoense S13 allele and sequenced. The sequence of the S11 allele contains all the features expected for S genes of the Solanaceae, and S11 expression, as assessed by northern blots and RNA-PCR, was similar to that of other S. chacoense S alleles. The S11 protein sequence shares 95% identity with the phenotypically distinct S13 protein of S. chacoense and is the gametophytic S allele with the highest similarity to an existing allele so far discovered. Only 10 amino acid changes differentiate the mature proteins from these two alleles, which sets a new lower limit to the number of changes that can produce an altered S allele specificity. The amino acid substitutions are not clustered, suggesting that an accumulation of random point mutations can generate S allele diversity. The S11 intron is unusual in that it could be translated in frame with the coding sequence, thus suggesting an additional mechanism for the generation of new S alleles.  相似文献

TheSLR1 gene inBrassica is related both in DNA sequence and in pattern of expression to theS-locus glycoprotein (SLG) gene involved in the self-incompatibility mechanism which recognises and arrests the germination of self pollen. However,SLR1 shows minimal allelic variation and is expressed in both self-incompatible and compatibleBrassica lines and in related, self-compatible cruciferous plants. The function of the SLR1 protein is unknown. TheSLR1 gene was specifically ablated in self-incompatible and self-compatibleBrassica plants byAgrobacterium-mediated transformation with an antisense construct. Primary transformants and homozygous T2 progeny of both self-incompatibleB. oleracea and self-compatibleB. napus recipients were found to exhibit normal pollination responses despite having no detectable SLR1 glycoprotein. This shows that the high, wild-type level of SLR1 protein is not required to sustain the self-incompatibility reaction, nor is it necessary for successful intra-specific cross-pollination between compatible lines.  相似文献

In Brassica, two self-incompatibility genes, encoding SLG (S locus glycoprotein) and SRK (S-receptor kinase), are located at the S locus and expressed in the stigma. Recent molecular analysis has revealed that the S locus is highly polymorphic and contains several genes, i.e., SLG, SRK, the as-yet-unidentified pollen S gene(s), and other linked genes. In the present study, we searched for expressed sequences in a 76-kb SLG/SRK region of the S(9) haplotype of Brassica campestris (syn. rapa) and identified 10 genes in addition to the four previously identified (SLG(9), SRK(9), SAE1, and SLL2) in this haplotype. This gene density (1 gene/5.4 kb) suggests that the S locus is embedded in a gene-rich region of the genome. The average G + C content in this region is 32.6%. An En/Spm-type transposon-like element was found downstream of SLG(9). Among the genes we identified that had not previously been found to be linked to the S locus were genes encoding a small cysteine-rich protein, a J-domain protein, and an antisilencing protein (ASF1) homologue. The small cysteine-rich protein was similar to a pollen coat protein, named PCP-A1, which had previously been shown to bind SLG.  相似文献
