基因枪转化获得的转基因水稻中外源基因整合与表达规律研究

通过基因枪法将cecropin B和bar基因共转化水稻,获得多个水稻优良品系的转化材料,对转基因的结构和表达的系统分析,发现外源基因的整合模式多种多样,有简单也有复杂,其中插入位点数的变化范围为1－7个,拷贝数的变化范围为1－10个,转基因拷贝数的多少与其表达和沉默不存在必然的联系,相同整合模式的转基因事件中基因的表达存在较大的差异,选择标记基因bar比非选择标记基因cecropin B的表达框的完整性和转录概率要高,但是发现大部分表达框完整的bar基因发生基因沉默,而在终止子发生序列丢失的cecropin B基因的表达则明显提高。     

苦参凝集素蛋白基因转化水稻的研究

以水稻杂交品种‘云资粳41号’为受体材料,通过农杆菌介导法将苦参凝集素蛋白基因(SFL)导入水稻细胞,采用氯酚红法和PCR检测外源基因是否整合到水稻基因组中。结果显示:外源基因成功转入水稻基因组,并获得一批转基因水稻植株;转基因植株叶片离体接种稻瘟病菌的检测结果显示,转基因植株与对照(非转基因植株)相比有明显的抗性,证明SFL基因在水稻中得到表达。研究表明,基于SFL基因所具备的广谱抗菌作用,可以预期所得转基因水稻植株很可能对水稻的多种病原菌具有良好的抗性,为选育新的抗稻瘟病水稻新品种以及拓宽栽培稻抗病遗传基础增加抗稻瘟病基因奠定了基础。     

半夏凝集素基因(pta)导入水稻及其表达的初步研究

半夏凝集素基因是一种有重要价值的抗虫基因。利用RACE—PCR技术克隆出半夏凝集素(pta)基因,并将它构建到载体pCAMBIA1305中形成双元载体(含pta基因和hpt基因)。利用农杆菌介导法将pta基因转入粳稻品种鄂宜105、中花12和籼稻品种E优532成熟胚诱导的愈伤组织中。通过PCR检测,从117株To代再生植株中筛选出36株(其中鄂宜105、中花12、E优532分别为19株、7株、10株)转基因植株。对这些转基因后代植株进行Southern blot分析和RT—PCR分析表明：pta基因已经整合到受体细胞基因组中,并在转录水平上得到了有效表达。通过对转基因后代的遗传分析,成功地从T1代表现为1：2：1盂德尔分离的分离群体中筛选出7个独立转基因水稻纯系(其中包括4个鄂宜105、1个中花12和2个E优532转基因纯系)。对这7个独立转基因水稻E代纯系进行褐飞虱生物抗性鉴定和田间隔离喂养实验,结果显示,这些转基因纯系对褐飞虱的存活率和发育进度均有显著的抑制作用。同时,实验结果还表明2～5mg/L的2,4—D是愈伤组织诱导和生长的必需条件,而且受体的基因型对愈伤组织诱导率和转化频率均有显著影响,在同等条件下,粳稻品种的愈伤组织诱导率和转化频率均高于籼稻种。     

雪花莲凝集素基因转化小麦及转基因小麦抗蚜性的研究

雪花莲凝集素对具有刺吸式口器的同翅目害虫具有毒杀作用。用基因枪法将1个新的雪花莲凝集素(GNA)基因转入普通春小麦品种中-60634和生产上正在推广的冬小麦高产品种——豫麦66中,分别获得了转基因小麦植株。抗蚜实验证明,转化gna基因的小麦植株对我国北方冬麦区的主要麦蚜——麦长管蚜和禾谷缢管蚜的抗性效果不尽相同。对禾谷缢管蚜,在接种当代即表现出明显的毒杀作用。对麦长管蚜,则表现为虫体发育减缓并且降低了其所生产的若蚜成活率。在自然放养条件下,gna基因则对这两种麦蚜的取食均起到了一定的抑制作用。     

OsbHLH1基因过表达载体构建及转化水稻研究

OsbHLH1基因编码bHLH类转录因子,与水稻耐寒性相关.以pCAMBIA3300为母体,利用玉米泛素(Ubiquitin)启动子构建了能使OsbHLH1基因过表达且含有Bar基因的植物表达载体p3300-Ubi-Ω- OsbHLH1.利用基因枪法将其转化到粳稻品种东稻3号中,获得再生苗47株.选取其中9株进行PCR、Southern检测,结果表明目的基因已经整合到水稻基因组中;草铵膦叶片涂布试验结果表明,Bar基因在水稻植株中正常表达;低温处理后,除45号植株外,其余8株光合速率的变化率显著低于非转基因对照,初步证明OsbHLH1基因在水稻中过表达显著提高了水稻的耐低温能力.     

稻瘟菌侵染诱导水稻凝集素基因的表达

利用mRNA差异显示技术（DDRT-PCR）,从非亲和性稻瘟菌生理小种131侵染的水稻品种爱知旭（Oryza sati-vaL.cv.Aichi-asahi)叶片中分离了8个诱导差异表达的cDNA片段,对这8个差示片段进行了回收,重扩增和克隆,以其中一个长度为321碱基并与甘露糖结合水稻凝集素和水稻盐诱导蛋白基因高度同源的差示片段为探针。筛选水稻非亲和性cDNA文库,获得12个阳性克隆。序列测定和数据库查询表明该基因的cDNA与水稻凝集素基因的cDNA及盐诱导蛋白基因的cDNA核苷酸同源笥高达96%。推定的氨基酸序列与甘露糖结合水稻凝集素的氨基酸序列一致。与水稻盐诱导蛋白仅相差2个氨基酸。Southern杂交显示该基因在水稻基因组中有两个同源拷贝数。Northern杂交表明非亲和性稻瘟菌侵染可强烈诱导该基因表达。因此推则该基因参与了水稻对稻瘟菌侵染的防御反应。

Transformation of Two Nitrogen-fixation-related Plant Genes into Tobacco and Their Expressions

Lectins and leghemoglobins in legumes play the important roles, respectively, in recognition of host plants to their own rhizobia, and lowering the oxygen partial pressure surround the bacteroids and protecting nitrogenase from oxygen in symbiotic nitrogen-fixing nodules.In order to investigate the non-leguminous recognition of rhizobial bacteria relating to nitrogen fixation, plant expression vectors containing pea lectin gene (pl) and Parasponia hemoglobin gene (phb) have been, respectively, constructed in a plasmid and the plasmid has been introduced into tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) using Agrobacterium tumefaciens (Smith et Townsend) Conn as a vehicle for transformation. PCR and Southern blot demonstrated that the two genes were integrated into the genome of the tobacco plants. Histochemical staining for GUS activity, Western blotting,and in situ hybridization of pea lectin showed that they were expressed at translational level in the plants. These results may provide a clue for exploring whether Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae could extend its host range and make the transgenic tobacco plants have the possibility of being symbiotic, or associative to nitrogen fixation.     

Transformation of Pea Lectin Gene and Parasponia Haemoglobin Gene into Rice and Their Expressions

Lectin and leghemoglobin in legumes play the important roles, respectively, in recognition of host plants to their rhizobial bacteria, and lowering the oxygen partial pressure around bacteroids and protecting nitrogenase from oxygen in symbiotic nitrogen-fixing nodules. In order to extend the host range of the rhizobial bacteria and to make them fix nitrogen in non-legumes, pea lectin gene ( pl ) and Parasponia hemoglobin gene ( phb ) have been constructed into a plant expression vector (pCBHUL) and the vector pCBHUL was introduced into rice calli from immature young embryos by particle bombardment. After the calli were regenerated into plantlets on the resistant-selecting media containing hygromycin, they were identified by PCR and Southern blot hybridization. It was indicated that the pl and phb genes were integrated into nucleic genome of the transformed rice plants. GUS activity and the product of the pl gene were determined by GUS staining, Western blot and in situ hybridization at translational level. Eighteen out of 40 plants resistant to hygromycin were positively identified by PCR analysis with the rate of 45%. The pl gene was expressed in 3 out of 18 plants with 17% and 7.5%in 40 plants. The results may provide a clue for exploring whether Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viceae could extend its host range and make the transgenic rice plants have the possibility of being symbiotic, or associative to nitrogen fixation.     

An Efficient Rice Transformation System Utilizing Mature Seed-derived Explants and a Portable,Inexpensive Particle Bombardment Device

We developed a practical and efficient gene transfer system for indica rice utilizing mature-seed derived explants and a simple bombardment device which uses compressed helium for accelerating DNA-coated metal particles. Unlike instruments which have been described in the literature previously, this new bombardment device, which is an improvement of the particle inflow concept, does not require vacuum. This attribute simplifies the transformation procedure significantly and it makes rice transformation technology accessible to laboratories which may not have the resources to invest in more expensive particle bombardment instruments. We determined experimentally that we could recover transgenic rice plants utilizing three different particle bombardment instruments at comparable frequencies.     

Expression and Immunolocalisation of the Snowdrop Lectin,GNA in Transgenic Rice Plants

Transgenic rice (Oryza sativa L.) plants generated through particle bombardment expressed high levels of an insecticidal protein (the snowdrop lectin, GNA) directed against sap-sucking insects. Engineered plants expressed GNA either constitutively or in a tissue specific manner, depending on the nature of the promoter used to drive expression of the gene. We used specific antibodies raised against GNA to localize its expression in phloem tissue in plants engineered with the rice sucrose synthase promoter driving GNA expression. We report here molecular, biochemical and immunological analyses for fifteen independently-derived transformants out of more than 200 plants we generated.

Transfer of Lysine-rich Protein Gene into Rice and Production of Fertile Transgenic Plants

Lysine-rich protein gene (lys) was cloned from Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC. A plant expression plasmid was constructed and lys gene was under the control of maize ubiquitin promoter which is the highest efficient monocotyledon promoter. The plasmid was introduced into rice embryogenic calli by microprojectile bombardment. The regenerated fertile plants were obtained by effective selection for hygromycin B resistance. Genomic PCR and Southern blotting analyses showed that the lys gene has been integrated into rice genome. Simultaneously, the results of GUS histochemical assay demonstrated the transgenic rice plants. Data analysis showed that lysine content in most of the 11 transgenic plants is differently improved, and in one of them increased by 16.04%.
