水稻细胞质雄性不育及育性恢复研究进展

植物细胞质雄性不育(CMS)是广泛存在于自然界中的现象,主要表现为不能产生有功能的花粉从而导致不能正常受精结实的自然现象。CMS的起因源于受植物细胞质基因的影响表现出雄性不育的特征,目前研究表明为线粒体的基因引起的雄性不育。相应地,细胞核中存在某类基因能够编码一种蛋白使其育性得以恢复,这一类基因称为育性恢复基因(Rf genes)。杂交水稻的生产依赖于CMS的发掘和利用,并且这也是农作物增产的一条有效途径。迄今为止,水稻中CMS和育性恢复的相关研究较多,机理阐述相对比较深入,本文主要介绍水稻CMS及育性恢复基因的研究及CMS和育性恢复机理的最新研究进展,希望能为揭示水稻CMS与育性恢复机制以及其他作物的CMS/Rf研究提供参考,为新型杂交水稻的培育提供新思路。

由不同细胞核背景引起的小麦细胞质雄性不育系(CMS)叶绿体蛋白质组的变化(简报)

叶绿体和线粒体是高等植物细胞内2种重要的细胞器。由于细胞质雄性不育(CMS)被认为是一种由线粒体基因编码的性状,因此,近10多年来,国内外研究者对线粒体基因组结构与功能、由线粒体基因编码的与CMS相关蛋白的研究积累了大量的资料。与线粒体相比,叶绿体与CMS关系的研究相对滞后。虽然一些研究者在核不育水稻中,观

红莲型细胞质雄性不育水稻线粒体atp6基因转录本的编辑位点研究

以红莲（HL）型水稻细胞质雄性不育系A、保持系B及杂种一代F₁为材料,首次比较研究了红莲型水稻线粒体atp6基因转录本的编辑位点及各位点的编辑频率.结果表明atp6基因的转录本有18个编辑位点,其中有15个发生在密码子的第一和第二位点上,这些位点的编辑最终会导致氨基酸种类的变化.18个编辑位点在A、B和F₁中没有差异,但各位点的编辑频率在引入了核恢复基因的条件下发生了较大的变化,完全编辑的比例增加.这些结果首次证明HL型细胞质雄性不育与线粒体atp6转录本的编辑有一定相关性,编辑不充分的转录产物最终会干扰线粒体功能的正常发挥.     

Microarray analysis reveals altered expression of a large number of nuclear genes in developing cytoplasmic male sterile Brassica napus flowers

To gain new insights into the mechanism underlying cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS), we compared the nuclear gene expression profiles of flowers of a Brassica napus CMS line with that of the fertile B. napus maintainer line using Arabidopsis thaliana flower-specific cDNA microarrays. The CMS line used has a B. napus nuclear genome, but has a rearranged mitochondrial (mt) genome consisting of both B. napus and A. thaliana DNA. Gene expression profiling revealed that a large number of genes differed in expression between the two lines. For example, nuclear genes coding for proteins that are involved in protein import into organelles, genes expressed in stamens and pollen, as well as genes implicated in either cell-wall remodeling or architecture, were repressed in the CMS line compared with B. napus. These results show that the mt genome of the CMS line strongly influences nuclear gene expression, and thus reveal the importance of retrograde signalling between the mitochondria and the nucleus. Furthermore, flowers of the CMS line are characterized by a replacement of stamens with carpelloid organs, and thus partially resemble the APETALA3 (AP3) and PISTILLATA (PI) mutants. In accordance with this phenotype, AP3 expression was downregulated in the stamens, shortly before these organs developed carpelloid characteristics, even though it was initiated correctly. Repression of PI succeeded that of AP3 and might be a consequence of a loss of AP3 activity. These results suggest that AP3 expression in stamens depends on proper mt function and a correct nuclear-mt interaction, and that mt alterations cause the male sterility phenotype of the CMS line.     

Deletion of the last two exons of the mitochondrialnad7 gene results in lack of the NAD7 polypeptide in aNicotiana sylvestris CMS mutant

InNicotiana sylvestris, two cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) mutants obtained by protoplast culture show abnormal developmental features of both vegetative and reproductive organs, and mitochondrial gene reorganization following homologous recombination between 65 bp repeated sequences. A mitochondrial region of 16.2 kb deleted from both CMS mutants was found to contain the last two exons of thenad7 gene coding for a subunit of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I, which is encoded in the nucleus in fungi and animals but was recently found to be encoded by the mitochondrial genome in wheat. Although theN. sylvestris nad7 gene shows strong homology with its wheat counterpart, it contains only three introns instead of four. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) experiments indicated that the parental gene organization, including the completenad7 gene, is probably maintained at a substoichiometric level in the CMS mutants, but this proportion is too low to have a significant physiological role, as confirmed by expression studies showing the lack of detectable amounts of the NAD7 polypeptide. Consequently, absence of NAD7 is not lethal to plant cells but a deficiency of complex I could be involved in the abnormal CMS phenotype.     

Mitochondrial genome diversity in connection with male sterility in Allium schoenoprasum L.

Mitochondrial genome diversity in chives (Allium schoenoprasum L.) was investigated with respect to different forms of male sterility. Cytoplasmic male-sterile (CMS) and restored genotypes of the known CMS system, compared to plants of the wi-, the st1- and the st2-sterility types and additional fertile plants of different origin were examined by means of RFLP analyses using mitochondrial gene probes. Besides the (S)-cytoplasm of the CMS system four additional cytoplasms were distinguished that differed in the organisation of their mitochondrial genomes. There is consequently a high degree of variability of the mitochondrial genome in chives, especially when compared with the closely related onion. A possible function of the atp9 gene in generating the different cytoplasm types of chives is discussed in relation to the origin of known CMS sequences in other plant species. The existence of different cytoplasm types offers the opportunity for further characterisation of the wi-, st1- and st2-sterility systems with respect to cytoplasmic factors which might be causally related to them. Whether these new sterilities are CMS or GMS (genic male sterilities) is of interest to plant breeders in order that restrictions on the genetic basis used in hybrid seed production be avoided.

植物细胞质雄性不育系育种的反向核置换技术分析

通过不育细胞质为选择背景,在田间事先鉴定出杂种后代的优异完全不育株,用花药培养或诱导孤雌生殖使其纯合,测定其配合力,可以筛选到优良的目标不育系。以下3种方法则可能通过目标不育系而获得其同型保持系：一是通过体细胞变异(花药培养)产生;二是在不育系孕穗期高温或低温处理使其转换成可育,选择仍具有不育保持能力的作为保持系,或作为轮回亲本,将其细胞核换到可育细胞质中;三是用原生质体融合的方式向不育系导入已杀死细胞核的可育细胞质而获得配套保持系。它可以使杂种优势利用变得有预见性,可能提高现有杂种优势水平。在创造雄性不育新质源,排除微效可育基因,进行不育系的定向改造,选育高配合力不育系,以及加速育种进程等方面具有重要价值。     

RFLP Analysis for Mitochondrial Genome of CMS-Rice

Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was used to analyze mitochondrial (mt) genome of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) rice. Differences were observed among mitochondrial genomes of the sterile line (A) and maintain line (B) of nine types of CMS rice; Mitochondrial genomic differences were also detected between A and B in many functional gene regions. Even the materials with the same nucleic background have differences in their mtDNA. This provides molecular evidence for the cytoplasmic heterogeneity and the CMS mechanism research.

Mitotype-specific sequences related to cytoplasmic male sterility in Oryza species

Plant mitochondrial genomes contain a large number of mitotype-specific sequences (MSS) which establish a mitochondrial genome structure distinct from other mitotypes. In rice, nine mitochondrial genomes have been sequenced, which provides us with the possibility of characterizing the MSS of rice and probing their relationship to cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) in rice. We therefore analyzed the mitochondrial genomes of CW-CMS, LD-CMS, WA-CMS, N and Nipponbare lines, and found 57 MSS with sizes ranging from 102 to 5,745 bp, and with an aggregate length of 92.4 kb. The MSS account for more than 14.5 % of the rice mitochondrial genome and are a significant contributing factor in the variation of mitochondrial genome sizes. Of the MSS tested, 34 MSS exhibited polymorphism among rice lines, and 14 MSS were further confirmed as being specific to CMS. This includes nine MSS specific to sporophytic CMS, three specific to gametophytic CMS, and two shared by all types of CMS. Interestingly, except for CMS genes orf(H)79 and orf352 which are partly or fully overlapping with some MSS fragments, there are ten more open reading frames of unknown function that were detected in CMS-specific MSS, hinting at their possible roles in plant CMS. These novel findings provide us with potential new molecular tools to direct the breeding of CMS lines in hybrid rice breeding programs.
