一种筛选拟南芥突变体的有效方法

经甲基磺酸乙酯（EMS）诱变处理的拟南芥种子,接种于MS培养基上,垂直放置培养4天后,将幼苗转移至胁迫培养基中,以倒置幼苗180°所形成的弯曲生长根作为指标筛选拟南芥耐营养胁迫突变体。利用这种方法,成功地筛选到一个耐低钾的隐性单基因拟南芥突变体。本方法同样适用于其他类型突变体的筛选。 Abstract：his paper introduces a root-bending assay for isol ation of Arabidopsis mutants tolerant to nutrition stress. Seeds of wild-ty pe Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype Landersberg erecta) were mutagenized wi th ethyl methyl sulfide (EMS),and M2 populations were screened for mutants. Fo ur-day-old seedlings with 1-to 1.5-cm-long roots were transferred from the vertical agar plates onto to a second agar medium that was supplemented with det erminate stress. The seedlings were arranged in rows, and the plates were orient ed vertically with the roots pointing upward. After another 4 days, the root be nding seedlings were selected for putative mutants and transferred to soil to gr ow to maturity.Seeds from the putative mutants were screened again to determine the true mutants.By using this root-bending assay we have isolated a low-K+-tolerant (lkt1) mutant which is caused by single recessive nuclear mutation. F or lkt1 mutant screening,K+concentration of the medium was 100μmol/L because root growth of wild type seedlings was completely inhibited at or below this con centration.This root-bending assay is also applicable to other type of Arabid opsis mutant isolation.

Characterization of Mycorrhizas Formed by Glomus sp. on Roots of Hypernodulating Mutants of Lotus japonicus

Lotus japonicus hypernodulating mutants, Ljsym78-1 and Ljsym78-2, by the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus sp. was characterized. The mutants are defective in systemic autoregulation of nodulation and nitrate inhibition, and form an excess of nodules and lateral roots. The percent root length colonized by the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi was significantly higher for the mutant than wild-type roots. Detailed assessment of the colonization indicated that the percentage of colonization by arbuscules was increased, but that by external hyphae, internal hyphae and vesicles was decreased, in the mutant roots compared with the wild-type. The succinate dehydrogenase activity of arbuscules, external hyphae and internal hyphae showed similar trends. In addition, the majority of individual arbuscules that formed on the mutant roots had a well-developed and seemingly tough morphology. The results suggest that mutation at the Ljsym78 locus positively stimulates the growth and activity of arbuscules, but leads to reduced growth and activity of hyphae. We report the first identification of Lotus japonicus mutants that show significantly increased arbuscule formation and termed these mutants Arb⁺⁺.

Phosphoproteome analysis of Lotus japonicus seeds

In this study, we report the first dataset of phosphoproteins of the seeds of a model plant, Lotus japonicus. This dataset might be useful in studying the regulatory mechanisms of seed germination in legume plants. By proteomic analysis of seeds following water absorption, we identified a total of 721 phosphopeptides derived from 343 phosphoproteins in cotyledons, and 931 phosphopeptides from 473 phosphoproteins in hypocotyls. Kinase‐specific prediction analyses revealed that different kinases were activated in cotyledons and hypocotyls. In particular, many peptides containing ATM‐kinase target motifs, X‐X‐pS/pT‐Q‐X‐X, were detected in cotyledons. Moreover, by real‐time RT‐PCR analysis, we found that expression of a homolog of ATM kinase is upregulated specifically in cotyledons, suggesting that this ATM‐kinase homolog plays a significant role in cell proliferation in the cotyledons of L. japonicus seeds. The data have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD000053 ( http://proteomecentral.proteomexchange.org/dataset/PXD000053 ).

Petal Development in Lotus japonicus

Previous studies have demonstrated that petal shape and size in legume flowers are determined by two separate mechanisms, dorsoventral (DV) and organ internal (IN) asymmetric mechanisms, respectively. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms controlling petal development in legumes. To address this question, we investigated petal development along the floral DV axis in Lotus japonicus with respect to cell and developmental biology by comparing wild‐type legumes to mutants. Based on morphological markers, the entire course of petal development, from initiation to maturity, was grouped to define 3 phases or 13 stages. In terms of epidermal micromorphology from adaxial surface, mature petals were divided into several distinct domains, and characteristic epidermal cells of each petal differentiated at stage 9, while epidermal cells of all domains were observed until stage 12. TCP and MIXTA‐like genes were found to be differentially expressed in various domains of petals at stages 9 and 12. Our results suggest that DV and IN mechanisms interplay at different stages of petal development, and their interaction at the cellular and molecular level guides the elaboration of domains within petals to achieve their ideal shape, and further suggest that TCP genes determine petal identity along the DV axis by regulating MIXTA‐like gene expression.     

Complete structure of the chloroplast genome of a legume, Lotus japonicus.

The nucleotide sequence of the entire chloroplast genome (150,519 bp) of a legume, Lotus japonicus, has been determined. The circular double-stranded DNA contains a pair of inverted repeats of 25,156 bp which are separated by a small and a large single copy region of 18,271 bp and 81,936 bp, respectively. A total of 84 predicted protein-coding genes including 7 genes duplicated in the inverted repeat regions, 4 ribosomal RNA genes and 37 tRNA genes (30 gene species) representing 20 amino acids species were assigned on the genome based on similarity to genes previously identified in other chloroplasts. All the predicted genes were conserved among dicot plants except that rpl22, a gene encoding chloroplast ribosomal protein CL22, was missing in L. japonicus. Inversion of a 51-kb segment spanning rbcL to rpsl6 (positions 5161-56,176) in the large single copy region was observed in the chloroplast genome of L. japonicus. The sequence data and gene information are available on our World Wide Web database at http://www.kazusa.or.jp/en/plant/database.html.     

Large Scale Structural Analysis of cDNAs in the Model Legume, Lotus japonicus

Lotus japonicus possesses certain characteristics suited to molecular genetic and genomic analyses and has been adopted as a model species in the study of legume plants. To make a catalogue of genes expressed in L. japonicus and understand biological processes specific to legume plants, large scale EST analyses have been performed. To date, more than 26,000 EST sequences of L. japonicus have been deposited in the public databases. These sequences were developed by five laboratories using different organs. In this review, information obtained from two EST projects carried out in Japan is presented. Some 7137 non-redundant EST groups from young plants and 718 groups from flower buds were generated. A similarity search revealed that homologues of nodulin genes in other legume plants, as well as genes related to secondary metabolism, seed development and the reproductive process, were included in the EST collection, indicating the usefulness of the EST clones in the study of biological phenomena distinctive to legume plant species.

Generation of 7137 non-redundant expressed sequence tags from a legume, Lotus japonicus.

For comprehensive analysis of genes expressed in a model legume, Lotus japonicus, a total of 22,983 5' end expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were accumulated from normalized and size-selected cDNA libraries constructed from young (2 weeks old) plants. The EST sequences were clustered into 7137 non-redundant groups. Similarity search against public non-redundant protein database indicated that 3302 groups showed similarity to genes of known function, 1143 groups to hypothetical genes, and 2692 were novel sequences. Homologues of 5 nodule-specific genes which have been reported in other legume species were contained in the collected ESTs, suggesting that the EST source generated in this study will become a useful tool for identification of genes related to legume-specific biological processes. The sequence data of individual ESTs are available at the web site: http://www.kazusa.or.jp/en/plant/lotus/EST/.     

Genome Analysis of Lotus japonicus

Lotus japonicus , a model legume plant, was reviewed and compared with Medicago truncatula and soybean. Several mutant libraries are being analyzed, focusing on the nodulation mechanism. The first plant nodulation gene nin was cloned by Ac-transposon tagging. Soybean remains as the most studied legume, especially in relation to the disease resistance genes. However, Lotus japonicus offers several advantages for molecular genetics, and the remained lackings were recently filled up, namely 1) an appropriate crossing partner for Gifu, accession Miyakojima, was proposed for its 4% polymorphism and smooth recombining ability; 2) a genome library with long inserts, average of 140 kb, and 8.2 genome equivalents of library size, has been established; and 3) the rather low polymorphic rate between Gifu and Miyakojima can be overcome with the HEGS (High Efficiency Genome Scanning). With this infrastructure, positional cloning of the causative genes of several mutant libraries will be accomplished in a short term. Genome sizes of L. japonicus acc. Gifu and Miyakojima were determined with high accuracy, to be 494±0 MB and 512±1 MB, respectively. The feasibility of constructing a physical map of the entire genome, for functional genomics, was discussed. Received 5 September 2000/ Accepted in revised form 11 October 2000
