利用mRNA差异显示技术分离甜菜M14品系特异表达基因的cDNA片段

二倍体栽培甜菜与白花甜菜杂交、进一步回交而获得的单体附加系M₁₄,其染色体组成中除了含有18条栽培甜菜染色体外,还附加有一条野生白花甜菜第9号染色体,该附加染色体通过母本的传递率为96.5%;单体附加系传递率如此高的原因是因为M₁₄中有无融合生殖基因的存在。本实验采用mRNA差异展示技术对甜菜无融合生殖品系M₁₄和正常有性生殖的二倍体栽培甜菜A_2Y花蕾减数分裂时期的基因表达进行了差异分析。采用GT₁₅A,GT₁₅G,GT₁₅C 3种锚定引物,共筛选了20个随机引物,通过RT-PCR检测,获得了6个阳性差异表达的cDNA片段,应用NCBI的BLASTx软件对测序结果进行同源序列、相似序列检索,为进一步克隆无融合生殖基因提供侯选cDNA片段。     

无融合生殖甜菜M14的GISH和BAC-FISH研究

无融合生殖是指不经减数分裂和受精作用而产生胚的一种无性繁殖, 因此是胚的克隆, 母系繁殖. 甜菜单体附加系M14是通过二倍体栽培甜菜(Beta vulgaris)和四倍体白花甜菜(B. corolliflora)种间杂交、进而回交, 选育出的具有无融合生殖特性的甜菜品系. 我们利用GISH技术进一步分析了无融合生殖甜菜M14中的染色体情况, 在不封阻的情况下, 附加的外源染色体清晰可见, 这说明栽培甜菜与白花甜菜基因组间种属特异序列的差异明显. 利用无融合生殖甜菜M14和有性生殖栽培甜菜的花期mRNA对白花甜菜第9号染色体的BAC芯片进行了差异杂交分析, 发现2个BAC克隆16-M11, 26-L15含有M14花期特异表达的基因. 选用这2个BAC克隆作为探针, 对具有无融合生殖甜菜M14进行荧光原位杂交, 供试探针均被定位于附加的白花甜菜第9号染色体长臂末端, 呈半合子状态. 本研究BAC芯片的杂交结果结合两种生殖途径中胚和胚乳发育表达方式的保守性可推断, 甜菜中有性生殖和无融合生殖可能共享某些调节因子的相关路径, 正是白花甜菜第9号染色体上的特异基因才使甜菜M14中无融合生殖特性得以表达.

GISH and BAC-FISH study of apomictic Beta M14

Apomixis is a means of asexual reproduction by which plants produce embryos without fertilization and meiosis, therefore the embryo is of clonal and maternal origin. Interspecific hybrids between diploid B. vulgaris (2n=2x=18) and tetraploid B. corolliflora (2n=4x=36) were established, and then backcrossed with B. vulgaris. Among their offspring, monosomic addition line M14 (2n=2x=18+1) was selected because of the apomictic phenotype. We documented chromosome transmission from B. corolliflora into M14 by using genomic in situ hybridization (GISH). Suppression of cross-hybridization by blocking DNA was not necessary, indicating that the investigated Beta genome contains sufficient species-specific DNA, thus enabling the determination of genomic composition of the hybrids. We analyzed BAC microarrays of B. corolliflora chromosome 9 by using fluorescence-specific mRNA of B.vulgaris and Beta M14. BAC clones 16-M11 and 26-L15 were detected as fluorescence-specifics of BAC DNA of Beta M14. Then both BAC clones 16-M11 and 26-L15 were in situ hybridized to M14 chromosomes. The two hybridized BAC clones were located close to the telomere region of the long arm of a single chromosome 9, and showed hemizygosity. The results of BAC microarrays showed that these developments of embryo and endosperm have conservative expression patterns, indicating that sexual reproduction and apomixis have an interrelated pathway with common regulatory components and that the induction of a modified sexual reproduction program may enable the manifestation of apomixis in Beta species. It would be sufficient for the expression of apomixes with those apomictic-specific genes on chromosome 9 of B. corolliflora.

Molecular characterization and chromosomal distribution of species-specific repetitive DNA sequences from Beta corolliflora, a wild relative of sugar beet.

Repetitive DNA sequences have been isolated from a Sau3AI plasmid library of tetraploid Beta corolliflora (2n = 4x = 36), a wild relative of sugar beet (B. vulgaris). The library was screened by differential hybridization with genomic DNA of B. corolliflora and B. vulgaris. When used as probes for Southern hybridization of genomic DNA, six clones were determined to represent highly repetitive DNA families present only in the B. corolliflora genome. Five other sequences were highly repetitive in B. corolliflora and low or single copy in B. vulgaris. The insert size varied between 43 bp and 448 bp. Two sequences pBC1279 and pBC1944 displayed strong homology to a previously cloned satellite DNA from B. nana. With one exception, sequences are tandemly arranged as revealed by a typical ladder pattern after genomic Southern hybridization. The chromosomal distribution of five probes was determined by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) of mitotic metaphases from B. corolliflora and a triploid hybrid between B. vulgaris and B. corolliflora. Three sequences were spread along all chromosome arms of B. corolliflora while one sequence was present on only six chromosomes. The chromosome-specific sequence pBC216 was found in close vicinity to the 5S rDNA located on B. corolliflora chromosome IV. This set of species-specific sequences has the potential to be used as probes for the identification of monosomic alien addition lines and for marker-assisted gene transfer from wild beet to cultivated beet.     

Construction of a binary BAC library for an apomictic monosomic addition line of<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Beta corolliflora</Emphasis> in sugar beet and identification of the clones derived from the alien chromosome

A plant-transformation-competent binary BAC library was constructed from the genomic DNA of the chromosome 9 monosomic addition line of Beta corolliflora Zoss. in sugar beet (B. vulgaris. L). This monosomic addition line (designated M14) is characterized by diplosporic reproduction caused by the alien chromosome carrying the gene(s) responsible for diplospory. The library consists of 49,920 clones with an average insert size of 127 kb, representing approximately 7.5 haploid genome equivalents and providing a greater than 99% probability of isolating a single-copy DNA sequence from the library. To develop the scaffold of a physical map for the alien chromosome, B. corolliflora genome-specific dispersed repetitive DNA sequences were used as probes to isolate BAC clones derived from the alien chromosome in the library. A total of 2,365 positive clones were obtained and arrayed into a sublibrary specific for B. corolliflora chromosome 9 (designated bcBAC-IX). The bcBAC-IX sublibrary was further screened with a subtractive cDNA pool generated from the ovules of M14 and the floral buds of B. vulgaris by the suppression subtractive hybridization method. One hundred and three positive binary BACs were obtained, which potentially contain the genes of the alien chromosome specifically expressed during the ovule and embryo development of M14, and may be associated with apomictic reproduction. Thus, these binary BAC clones will be useful for identification of the genes for apomixis by genetic transformation.Communicated by H. C. Becker     

Genetic and chromosomal localization of the 5S rDNA locus in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.).

A digoxigenin-labelled 5S rDNA probe containing the 5S rRNA gene and the adjacent intergenic spacer was used for in situ hybridization to metaphase and interphase chromosomes of a trisomic stock from sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.). Three chromosomes of primary trisomic line IV (T. Butterfass. Z. Bot. 52: 46-77. 1964) revealed signals close to the centromeres. Polymorphisms of 5S rDNA repeats in a segregating population were used to map genetically the 5S rRNA genes within a cluster of markers in linkage group II of sugar beet. The concentration of genetic markers around the centromere presumably reflects the suppressed recombination frequency in centromeric regions. The correlation of physical and genetic data allowed the assignment of a linkage group to sugar beet chromosome IV according to line IV of the primary trisomics.     

甜菜无融合生殖单体附加系M14雌配子体的发生与发育
