Enhanced ascorbic acid accumulation in transgenic potato confers tolerance to various abiotic stresses 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

l-Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C, AsA) is an important component of human nutrition. Plants and several animals can synthesize their
own ascorbic acid, whereas humans lack the gene essential for ascorbic acid biosynthesis and must acquire from their diet.
In the present study, we developed transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Taedong Valley) over-expressing l-gulono-γ-lactone oxidase (GLOase gene; NCBI Acc. No. NM022220), isolated from rat cells driven by CaMV35S constitutive promoter
that showed enhanced AsA accumulation. Molecular analyses of four independent transgenic lines performed by PCR, Southern
and RT-PCR revealed the stable integration of the transgene in the progeny. The transformation frequency was ca. 7.5% and
the time required for the generation of transgenic plants was 6–7 weeks. Transgenic tubers showed significantly enhanced AsA
content (141%) and GLOase activity as compared to untransformed tubers. These transgenics were also found to withstand various
abiotic stresses caused by Methyl Viologen (MV), NaCl or mannitol, respectively. The T1 transgenic plants exposed to salt stress (100 mM NaCl) survived better with increased shoot and root length when compared
to untransformed plants. The elevated level of AsA accumulation in transgenics was directly correlated with their ability
to withstand abiotic stresses. These results further demonstrated that the overexpression of GLOase gene enhanced basal levels of AsA in potato tubers and also the transgenics showed better survival under various abiotic
stresses. 相似文献

Thaumatin gene confers resistance to fungal pathogens as well as tolerance to abiotic stresses in transgenic tobacco plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We report here the development of transgenic tobacco plants with thaumatin gene of Thaumatococcus daniellii under the control of a strong constitutive promoter-CaMV 35S. Both polymerase chain reaction and genomic Southern analysis
confirmed the integration of transgene. Transgenic plants exhibited enhanced resistance with delayed disease symptoms against
fungal diseases caused by Pythium aphanidermatum and Rhizoctonia solani. The leaf extract from transgenic plants effectively inhibited the mycelial growth of these pathogenic fungi in vitro. The transgenic seeds exhibited higher germination percentage and seedling survival under salinity and PEG-mediated drought
stress as compared to the untransformed controls. These observations suggest that thaumatin gene can confer tolerance to both
fungal pathogens and abiotic stresses. 相似文献

Osmotin is a key protein associated with abiotic and biotic stress response in plants. In this study, an osmotin from the resurrection plant Tripogon loliiformis (TlOsm) was characterized and functionally analyzed under abiotic stress conditions in T. loliiformis as well as in transgenic Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco) and Oryza sativa (rice) plants. Real‐time PCR analysis on mixed elicitor cDNA libraries from T. loliiformis showed that TlOsm was upregulated a 1000‐fold during the early stages of osmotic stresses (cold, drought, and salinity) in both shoots and roots but downregulated in shoots during heat stress. There was no change in TlOsm gene expression in roots of heat‐stressed plants and during plant development. The plasma membrane localization of TlOsm was showed in fluorescent‐tagged TlOsm tobacco plants using confocal laser scanning microscopic analysis. Transgenic rice plants expressing TlOsm were assessed for enhanced tolerance to salinity, drought and cold stresses. Constitutively expressed TlOsm in transgenic rice plants showed increased tolerance to cold, drought and salinity stress when compared with the wild‐type and vector control counterparts. This was evidenced by maintained growth, retained higher water content and membrane integrity, and improved survival rate of TlOsm‐expressing plants. The results thus indicate the involvement of TlOsm in plant response to multiple abiotic stresses, possibly through the signaling pathway, and highlight its potential applications for engineering crops with improved tolerance to cold, drought and salinity stress. 相似文献

Abiotic stresses, especially salinity and drought, are major limiting factors for plant growth and crop productivity. In an attempt to develop salt and drought tolerant tomato, a DNA cassette containing tobacco osmotin gene driven by a cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter was transferred to tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Putative T0 transgenic plants were screened by PCR analysis. The selected transformants were evaluated for salt and drought stress tolerance by physiological analysis at T1 and T2 generations. Integration of the osmotin gene in transgenic T1 plants was verified by Southern blot hybridization. Transgenic expression of the osmotin gene was verified by RT-PCR and northern blotting in T1 plants. T1 progenies from both transformed and untransformed plants were tested for salt and drought tolerance by subjecting them to different levels of NaCl stress and by withholding water supply, respectively. Results from different physiological tests demonstrated enhanced tolerance to salt and drought stresses in transgenic plants harboring the osmotin gene as compared to the wild-type plants. The transgenic lines showed significantly higher relative water content, chlorophyll content, proline content, and leaf expansion than the wild-type plants under stress conditions. The present investigation clearly shows that overexpression of osmotin gene enhances salt and drought stress tolerance in transgenic tomato plants. 相似文献

Key message
Overexpression of CsHis in tobacco promoted chromatin condensation, but did not affect the phenotype. It also conferred tolerance to low-temperature, high-salinity, ABA, drought and oxidative stress in transgenic tobacco.Abstract
H1 histone, as a major structural protein of higher-order chromatin, is associated with stress responses in plants. Here, we describe the functions of the Camellia sinensis H1 Histone gene (CsHis) to illustrate its roles in plant responses to stresses. Subcellular localization and prokaryotic expression assays showed that the CsHis protein is localized in the nucleus, and its molecular size is approximately 22.5 kD. The expression levels of CsHis in C. sinensis leaves under various conditions were investigated by qRT-PCR, and the results indicated that CsHis was strongly induced by various abiotic stresses such as low-temperature, high-salinity, ABA, drought and oxidative stress. Overexpression of CsHis in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) promoted chromatin condensation, while there were almost no changes in the growth and development of transgenic tobacco plants. Phylogenetic analysis showed that CsHis belongs to the H1C and H1D variants of H1 histones, which are stress-induced variants and not the key variants required for growth and development. Stress tolerance analysis indicated that the transgenic tobacco plants exhibited higher tolerance than the WT plants upon exposure to various abiotic stresses; the transgenic plants displayed reduced wilting and senescence and exhibited greater net photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (Gs) and maximal photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) values. All the above results suggest that CsHis is a stress-induced gene and that its overexpression improves the tolerance to various abiotic stresses in the transgenic tobacco plants, possibly through the maintenance of photosynthetic efficiency. 相似文献10.

In an attempt to improve stress tolerance of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) plants, an expression vector containing an Arabidopsis C-repeat/dehydration responsive element binding factor 1 (CBF1) cDNA driven by a cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter was transferred into tomato plants. Transgenic expression of CBF1 was proved by northern- and western-blot analyses. The degree of chilling tolerance of transgenic T(1) and T(2) plants was found to be significantly greater than that of wild-type tomato plants as measured by survival rate, chlorophyll fluorescence value, and radical elongation. The transgenic tomato plants exhibited patterns of growth retardation; however, they resumed normal growth after GA(3) (gibberellic acid) treatment. More importantly, GA(3)-treated transgenic plants still exhibited a greater degree of chilling tolerance compared with wild-type plants. Subtractive hybridization was performed to isolate the responsive genes of heterologous Arabidopsis CBF1 in transgenic tomato plants. CATALASE1 (CAT1) was obtained and showed activation in transgenic tomato plants. The CAT1 gene and catalase activity were also highly induced in the transgenic tomato plants. The level of H(2)O(2) in the transgenic plants was lower than that in the wild-type plants under either normal or cold conditions. The transgenic plants also exhibited considerable tolerance against oxidative damage induced by methyl viologen. Results from the current study suggest that heterologous CBF1 expression in transgenic tomato plants may induce several oxidative-stress responsive genes to protect from chilling stress. 相似文献

SUMOylation is an important post‐translational modification process that regulates different cellular functions in eukaryotes. SIZ/PIAS‐type SAP and Miz1 (SIZ1) proteins exhibit SUMO E3 ligase activity, which modulates SUMOylation. However, SIZ1 in tomato has been rarely investigated. In this study, a tomato SIZ1 gene (SlSIZ1) was isolated and its molecular characteristics and role in tolerance to drought stress are described. SlSIZ1 was up‐regulated by cold, sodium chloride (NaCl), polyethylene glycol (PEG), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and abscisic acid (ABA), and the corresponding proteins were localized in the nucleus. The expression of SlSIZ1 in Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) siz1‐2 mutants partially complemented the phenotypes of dwarf, cold sensitivity and ABA hypersensitivity. SlSIZ1 also exhibited the activity of SUMO E3 ligase to promote the accumulation of SUMO conjugates. Under drought stress, the ectopic expression of SlSIZ1 in transgenic tobacco lines enhanced seed germination and reduced the accumulation of reactive oxygen species. SlSIZ1 overexpression conferred the plants with improved growth, high free proline content, minimal malondialdehyde accumulation and increased accumulation of SUMO conjugates. SlSIZ1 is a functional homolog of Arabidopsis SIZ1 with SUMO E3 ligase activity. Therefore, overexpression of SlSIZ1 enhanced the tolerance of transgenic tobacco to drought stress. 相似文献

Plant growth and crop production are limited by environmental stress. We used a large population of transgenic Arabidopsis expressing rice full-length cDNAs to isolate the rice genes that improve the tolerance of plants to environmental stress. By sowing T2 seeds of the transgenic lines under conditions of salinity stress, the salt-tolerant line R07047 was isolated. It expressed a rice gene, OsSMCP1, which encodes a small protein with a single C2 domain, a Ca2+-dependent membrane-targeting domain. Retransformation of wild-type Arabidopsis revealed that OsSMCP1 is responsible for conferring the salt tolerance. It is particularly interesting that R07047 and newly constructed OsSMCP1-overexpressing Arabidopsis showed enhanced tolerance not only to high salinity but also to osmotic, dehydrative, and oxidative stresses. Furthermore, R07047 showed improved resistance to Pseudomonas syringae. The OsSMCP1 expression in rice is constitutive. Particle-bombardment-mediated transient expression analysis revealed that OsSMCP1 is targeted to plastids in rice epidermal cells. It induced overexpression of several nuclear encoded genes, including the stress-associated genes, in transgenic Arabidopsis. No marked morphological change or growth retardation was observed in R07047 or retransformants. For molecular breeding to improve the tolerance of crops against environmental stress, OsSMCP1 is a promising candidate. 相似文献

Two poplar calcineurin B-like proteins confer enhanced tolerance to abiotic stresses in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Calcium is a critical component in a number of plant signal transduction pathways and the calcineurin B-like protein (CBL) family is a unique group of calcium sensors regulating a family of CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs). In this study, two poplar CBL genes, PeCBL6 (GenBank acc. No. DQ907710) and PeCBL10 (GenBank acc. No. DQ899956), were characterized in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana, particularly with regard to its role in abiotic stress resistance. Expression of the two CBL genes in poplar was induced by cold, drought, or high salinity, but not by abscisic acid (ABA) treatment. In Arabidopsis thaliana, PeCBL6 was found in the nucleus and PeCBL10 in the tonoplast. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing PeCBL6 or PeCBL10 showed enhanced tolerance to high salinity, drought and low temperature. These results suggested that PeCBL6 and PeCBL10 may function as positive regulators of salt, drought and temperature responses. 相似文献
