新疆雪莲毛状根的诱导及其植株再生体系的建立

利用发根农杆菌R1601、R1000、LBA9402感染新疆雪莲的叶片、叶柄和根段外植体,诱导产生毛状根。毛状根接种量为2.8 g/L(FW)时,20d生长量可达66.7 g/L,黄酮含量达到干重的10.23%。冠瘿碱的检测和rolB基因的PCR分析表明,Ri质粒中的T_DNA片段已经整合到毛状根细胞的基因组中。预培养时间、外植体类型以及发根农杆菌的菌株属性对毛状根诱导有着重要的影响。其中预培养2 d的新疆雪莲根段外植体,经过R1601感染后,毛状根的诱导率可达100%。诱导产生的毛状根在附加生长素的液体培养基中,有少量愈伤组织产生。由毛状根再生的植株与雪莲外植体再生的植株在形态上无明显区别,但前者的黄酮含量仅为后者的53%。

利用野生型发根农杆菌15834菌株感染小冠花15日龄无菌苗子叶和下胚轴切段,建立了高效的发状根培养及其体细胞胚胎发生再生体系。发状根可直接从受伤的外植体表面产生,也能在外植体诱导的愈伤组织上发生,在无外源激素的MS固体和液体培养基上,转化根能自主生长,表现出典型的发根特征。用适宜浓度的乙酰丁香酮处理对数生长期的农杆菌菌液2h,感染预培养2d的子叶获得了最高的转化频率(87.4%)。在附加0.2mgL2,4_D,0.5mgLNAA和0.5mgLKT的MS培养基上,发状根能100%形成胚性愈伤组织,并于含0.5mgLKT,0.2mgLIBA和300mgL脯氨酸的MS培养基上顺序经过体细胞胚胎发育的各个典型时期,转换成完整植株。再生植株除具有发达的侧根外,其它形态特征与未转化植株未见明显的差异,但在获得的5个转化克隆中,其中1个的发状根及其再生植株叶片中有毒物质3_硝基丙酸的含量显著下降,分别为未转化对照的57.68%和58.17%。冠瘿碱纸电泳检测和rolB基因PCR扩增检测均证明农杆菌Ri质粒上的T_DNA已经整合到小冠花转化细胞的基因组中。     

The influence of plant growth regulators on callus induction in pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.) hairy roots

Following in vitro infection with Agrobacterium rhizogenes wild strain (mannopine, 8196) and two A. tumefaciens transconjugant strains (C58C1 pArA4abc and C58C1 pArA4b) transformed (hairy) roots were induced in pumpkin (C. pepo L.) cotyledons. The presence of pRi T-DNA in pumpkin long-term hairy root cultures was determined by Southern hybridization. The influence of plant growth regulators on callus induction in root explants from hairy root lines, which differed mutually in morphology and growth rate, was tested by the addition of growth regulators to basal nutrient medium; while 2.4-D inhibited root proliferation in all hairy root lines tested, callus induction depended both on plant growth regulators and the root line.     

Genetic transformation<Emphasis Type="Italic"> of Pueraria phaseoloides </Emphasis>with<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Agrobacterium rhizogenes</Emphasis> and puerarin production in hairy roots

An efficient transformation system for the medicinal plant Pueraria phaseoloides was established by using agropine-type Agrobacterium rhizogenes ATCC15834. Hairy roots could be obtained directly from the cut edges of petioles of leaf explants or via callus 10 days after inoculation with the bacteria. The highest frequency of explant transformation by A. rhizogenes ATCC15834 was about 70% after infection for 30 days. Hairy roots could grow rapidly on solid, growth regulator-free Murashige and Skoog medium and had characteristics of transformed roots such as fast growth and high lateral branching. Paper electrophoresis revealed that bacteria-free hairy roots of P. phaseoloides could synthesize agropine and mannopine. The polymerase chain reaction amplification of rooting locus genes showed that left-hand transferred DNA of the root inducing plasmid of A. rhizogenes was inserted into the genome of transformed P. phaseoloides hairy roots. The content of puerarin in hairy roots reached a level of 1.190 mg/g dry weight and was 1.067 times the content in the roots of untransformed plants.     

Transformation of Populus tomentosa by Agrobacterium and Regeneration of Transformed Plantlets

The establishment of efficient transformation system of Populus tomentosa by Agrobacterium is reported. The strains of Agrobacterium used in experiments were: 1. A. rhizogenes R1000, which harboured the Ri plasmid pRiA4b. 2. A. rhizogenes R1000 (pTVK85), which carried the plasmids pRiA4b and pTVK85 Containing supervirulent region. 3. A. tumefaciens C58C1 (pBZ693), the plasmid pBZ693 containing genes 1 and 2. After being cocultured with the bacteria on media containing 0.5 ppm kinetin for 2 days, explants of P. tomentosa were transferred to MS medium containing 500 ppm cefotaxime. Roots appeared on the explants in a week. The roots induced by A. tume[aciens were morphologically different from those induced by A. rhizogenes. The frequency of the explants transformed by A. rhizogenes R1000 (pTVK85) was nearly up to 60%. Some Ri plasmid transformed roots could spontaneously produce adventitious shoots or calli. By adding appropriate plant growth regulators in the media, we could have all of the root lines transformed produce adventitious shoots which would develop into intact plantlets on a hormone-free medium. Some phenotypical differences were observed among clones of the transformed plantlets. Some clones had short internodes, large number of leaves, reduced apical dominance, rich root systems with a great quantity of branches and root hairs, whereas in other clones aboveground parts of plantlets were morphologically normal and only their root systems were different from those of untransformed plantlets. None of the plantlets transformed by A. rhizogenes had the phenomenon of wrinkle leaves and shapes these leaves were analogous to normal plantlets. It was often observed that roots were regenerated from stems above the medium surfaces. Southern analysis on three clones of the putative transformed plantlets by A. rhizogenes R1000 (pTVKS5) showed that two of them were hybridized positively with the probe covering the TL-DNA region of the plasmid pRiA4b.

Establishment of Withania somnifera hairy root cultures for the production of withanolide A

Withanla sominifera (Indian ginseng) was transformed by Agrobacterlum rhizogenes.Explants from seedling roots,stems,hypocotyls,cotyledonary nodal segments,cotyledons and young leaves were inoculated with A.rhizogenes strain R1601.Hairy (transformed) roots were induced from cotyledons and leaf explants.The transgenic status of hairy roots was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction using nptll and roIB specific primers and,subsequently,by Southern analysis for the presence of nptll and roIB genes in the genomes of transformed roots.Four clones of hairy roots were established;these differed in their morphology.The doubling time of faster growing cultures was 8-14 d with a fivefold increase in biomass after 28 d compared with cultured,non-transformed seedling roots.MS-based liquid medium was superior for the growth of transformed roots compared with other culture media evaluated (SH,LS and N6),with MS-based medium supplemented with 40 g/L sucrose being optimal for biomass production.Cultured hairy roots synthesized withanolide A,a steroidal lactone of medicinal and therapeutic value.The concentration of withanolide A in transformed roots (157.4 μg/g dry weight) was 2.7-fold more than in non-transformed cultured roots (57.9 μg/g dry weight).     

黄瓜毛状根的诱导及细胞分裂素6-BA对其生长和形态的影响

含农杆碱型Ri质粒pRiA4b的发根农杆菌(Agrobacteriumrhizogenes)ATCC15834感染黄瓜子叶外植体5d后产生毛状根,毛状根可直接从叶片外植体叶脉处产生。感染10d后,约90%的子叶外植体产生毛状根。毛状根能在无外源生长调节剂的MS固体和液体培养基上自主生长。PCR扩增结果证实,发根农杆菌Ri质粒的rolB和rolC基因已在黄瓜毛状根基因组中整合并得到表达。挑选一无菌黄瓜毛状根系置于含不同浓度6-BA的MS培养基中悬浮培养来探讨细胞分裂素6-BA对黄瓜毛状根生长及其形态变化的影响。结果表明,细胞分裂素6-BA能促进黄瓜毛状根的生长及改变其生长形态。随着培养基中6-BA浓度的升高,黄瓜毛状根变得越来越短而粗,更少分枝。与对照相比,培养基中添加0·1~3·0mg/L6-BA能推迟毛状根最大生长峰的出现,降低其可溶性蛋白含量、SOD和POD酶活性;而黄瓜毛状根的乙烯释放高峰比其最大生长峰和SOD和POD酶活性高峰提前5天,但6-BA处理能降低毛状根的内源乙烯释放量。该结果表明细胞分裂素6-BA可能通过对乙烯生成和释放的调节来影响黄瓜毛状根的生长和形态并延缓毛状根的衰老。     

Colonization of arbuscular-mycorrhizal fungi on Ri T-DNA transformed roots in synthetic medium

Hairy root culture of tomato (Lycopersicon esculantum L.) was induced with three strains of Agrobacterium rhizogenes namely A4, ATCC 15834 and LBA 9402. The best response in terms of growth of hairy root was observed with A. rhizogenes strain A4 and LBA 9402 followed by ATCC 15834. Hairy roots were maintained on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium but it could also grow on minimal (M) medium. Spores of Gigaspora margarita were isolated by wet sieving and decanting method and further recovered by sucrose density gradient method. A new method for surface sterilization of spores has been described which is simpler than the methods described earlier. Surface sterilized spores of G. margarita were used for inoculation of transformed roots grown on M medium as it was found more favourable for germination and growth of spores. During co-cultivation, mycorrhizal spore germination and its penetration into root cortex were observed. Inter and intracellular mycelial spread and formation of arbuscules were also observed in the cortical region of transformed roots of this plant.     

Horticultural characterization of<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Angelonia salicariifolia</Emphasis> plants transformed with wild-type strains of<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Agrobacterium rhizogenes</Emphasis>

Genetic transformation was carried out with wild-type strains of Agrobacterium rhizogenes for introducing a dwarf trait into the Scrophulariaceous ornamental plant, angelonia (Angelonia salicariifolia). Leaf segments of two angelonia genotypes (Ang.1 and Ang.2) were co-cultivated with mikimopine-type strains of A. rhizogenes. Adventitious roots that showed vigorous growth and increased lateral branching when cultured on half-strength Murashige and Skoog's (MS) basal salts medium lacking plant growth regulators (PGRs) after co-cultivation were selected as putatively transformed lines. All of these selected lines produced mikimopine. Adventitious shoots were efficiently induced from putatively transformed root segments on half-strength MS basal salts medium containing 1 mg l(-1) benzyladenine (BA) under continuous illumination (24-h photoperiod), and the shoots easily rooted following their transfer to half-strength MS basal salts medium lacking PGRs. The transgenic nature of regenerated plants was confirmed by Southern hybridization. Transformed plants frequently died during their acclimatization, and acclimatized plants of eight transformed lines grew very slowly for 1-5 months after transplantation to the greenhouse. Plants of two transformed lines of Ang.2 flowered 4-6 months after transplantation. These transformed plants exhibited phenotypic alterations such as dwarfness and smaller leaves. There were no apparent alterations observed in the number, shape, and size of the flowers. Pollen fertility of the transformed plants was 60-80% based on aceto-carmine staining. These results indicate the possibility of applying A. rhizogenes-mediated transformation for introducing a dwarf trait into angelonia.

Genetic transformation of gentian using wild-type Agrobacterium rhizogenes

Leaf sections of greenhouse-grown Miscanthus x ogiformis Honda 'Giganteus' plants and leaf sections or shoot apices of in vitro shoot cultures were grown on Murashige and Skoog medium containing various concentrations of benzyladenine (BA) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. On leaf sections, the callus induction decreased with increasing BA concentration. The percentage of embryogenic callus was increased, the percentage of root-forming callus decreased, and a new shoot-forming callus type was formed by inclusion of BA during callus induction. A higher percentage of shoot-forming callus was formed on shoot apices compared with leaf sections of in vitro-grown shoots when cultured on 0.4 μM BA. The largest number of plants per callus piece was regenerated from shoot-forming callus, but maintenance of the high regeneration capacity proved difficult. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Use of the cryptogein gene to stimulate the accumulation of bacopa saponins in transgenic Bacopa monnieri plants

Genetic transformation of the Indian medicinal plant, Bacopa monnieri, using a gene encoding cryptogein, a proteinaceous elicitor, via Ri and Ti plasmids, were established and induced bioproduction of bacopa saponins in crypt-transgenic plants were obtained. Transformed roots obtained with A. rhizogenes strain LBA 9402 crypt on selection medium containing kanamycin (100?mg?l(-1)) dedifferentiated forming callus and redifferentiated to roots which, spontaneously showed shoot bud induction. Ri crypt-transformed plants thus obtained showed integration and expression of rol genes as well as crypt gene. Ti crypt-transformed B. monnieri plants were established following transformation with disarmed A. tumefaciens strain harboring crypt. Transgenic plants showed significant enhancement in growth and bacopa saponin content. Bacopasaponin D (1.4-1.69?%) was maximally enhanced in transgenic plants containing crypt. In comparison to Ri-transformed plants, Ri crypt-transformed plants showed significantly (p?≤?0.05) enhanced accumulation of bacoside A(3), bacopasaponin D, bacopaside II, bacopaside III and bacopaside V. Produced transgenic lines can be used for further research on elicitation in crypt-transgenic plants as well as for large scale production of saponins. Key message The cryptogein gene, which encodes a proteinaceous elicitor is associated with increase in secondary metabolite accumulation-either alone or in addition to the increases associated with transformation by A. rhizogenes.
