Sheath blight, caused by Rhizoctonia solani, is one of the most important rice diseases worldwide especially under irrigated agro‐ecosystems. To date, no rice accession with complete resistance to sheath blight has been reported. However, a number of genotypes with varying levels of resistance have been reported. Twelve genotypes (including mega varieties) viz. Tetep, Jasmine 85, Te‐Qing, Duduruchi, Betichikon, Khatochalani, D‐6766, D‐256, Swarna, Sarju‐52, MTU‐1010 and Samba Mashuri were evaluated for quantitative measurement of partial physiological resistance to sheath blight under controlled conditions using detached tiller method. Three independent experiments, each involving three replications, were conducted. Seven days after inoculation, the following disease variables were measured: number of lesions, lesion length, vertical sheath colonization (VSC) on the tiller, disease severity, relative vertical sheath colonization (RVSC) and survival of the leaf blade. Variation between rice genotypes was observed for all the disease variables. Disease severity and VSC were the two most correlated variables, whereas the number of lesions and mean lesion length were the least correlated variables. The ranking of varieties often differed depending on the disease variable considered. Amongst the genotypes tested, D‐256, Tetep and Jasmin‐85 had the lowest number of lesions and disease severity. Similarly, Tetep and D‐256 showed the lowest levels of RVSC, whilst Jasmine‐85 was found to be intermediate. D‐6766, Samba Mashuri and Betichikon showed the highest levels of disease variables. The fraction of dead leaves ranged from 0.00 to 0.38. No dead leaves were observed in Te‐Qing, Swarna and MTU‐1010. The highest fraction of dead leaves was observed for Betichikon (0.38) followed by Duduruchi and D‐6766 (0.33). Our results suggest that this method in combination with other phenotyping methods could be used to quantify partial resistance to rice sheath blight. 相似文献

Rice (Oryza sativa) has two betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase homologs, BAD1 and BAD2, encoded on chromosome four and chromosome eight respectively. BAD2 is responsible for the characteristic aroma of fragrant rice. Complementary DNA clones of both BAD1 and BAD2 were isolated and expressed in E. coli. BAD2 had optimum activity at pH 10, little to no affinity towards N-acetyl-gamma-aminobutyraldehyde (NAGABald) with a Km of approximately 10 mM and moderate affinity towards gamma-guanidinobutyraldehyde (GGBald) and betaine aldehyde (bet-ald) with Km values of approximately 260 microM and 63 microM respectively. A lower Km of approximately 9 microM was observed with gamma-aminobutyraldehyde (GABald), suggesting BAD2 has a higher affinity towards this substate in vivo. The enzyme encoded on chromosome four, BAD1, had optimum activity at pH 9.5, showed little to no affinity towards bet-ald with a Km of 3 mM and had moderate affinity towards GGBald, NAGABald and GABald with Km values of approximately 545, 420 and 497 microM respectively. BAD1 had a half life roughly double that of BAD2. We discuss the implications of these findings on the pathway of fragrance generation in Basmati and Jasmine rice and the potential of rice to accumulate the osmoprotectant glycine betaine. 相似文献

Aldo–keto reductase (AKR) is an enzyme superfamily whose members are involved in the metabolism of aldehydes/ketones. The
AKR4 subfamily C (AKR4C) is a group of aldo–keto reductases that are found in plants. Some AKR4C(s) in dicot plants are capable
of metabolizing reactive aldehydes whereas, such activities have not been reported for AKR4C(s) from monocot species. In this
study, we have screened Indica rice genome for genes with significant homology to dicot AKR4C(s) and identified a cluster
of putative AKR4C(s) located on the Indica rice chromosome I. The genes including OsI_04426, OsI_04428 and OsI_04429 were successfully cloned and sequenced by qRT-PCR from leaves of Thai Jasmine rice (KDML105). OsI_04428, later named AKR4C14, was chosen for further studies because it shares highest homology to the dicot AKR4C(s). The bacterially
expressed recombinant protein of AKR4C14 was successfully produced as a MBP fusion protein and his-tagged protein. The recombinant
AKR4C14 were capable of metabolizing sugars and reactive aldehydes i.e. methylglyoxal, a toxic by-product of the glycolysis
pathway, glutaraldehyde, and trans-2-hexenal, a natural reactive 2-alkenal. AKR4C14 was highly expressed in green tissues, i.e. leaf sheets and stems, whereas flowers and roots had a significantly lower level
of expression. These findings indicated that monocot AKR4C(s) can metabolize reactive aldehydes like the dicot AKR4C(s) and
possibly play a role in detoxification mechanism of reactive aldehydes. 相似文献

A rice bran 57-kDa protein was isolated by affinity chromatography with fibronectin immobilized on agarose. This fibronectin-binding protein designated as RB-57 had an amino-terminal amino acid sequence identical with that of a putative mature form of rice hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein. A distinct feature of the amino acid composition of RB-57 was the high contents of hydroxyproline and proline representing about 45% of the total amino acids. The sugar analysis indicated that arabinose represented 46.8% of the total carbohydrates. RB-57 showed cell adhesion activity for murine Lewis lung carcinoma cells. The result suggests that RB-57 may play a role in plant cell adhesion, although cell adhesion-promoting activity for plant cells remains to be tested. 相似文献

Multiple forms of ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase of rice endosperm 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase from developing rice ( Oryza sativa ) endosperm was purified. The final preparation yielded 6 major protein spots as separated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide electrophoresis. All 6 polypeptides had similar molecular weights of ca 50 kDa and cross-reacted with polyclonal antibodies raised against two main protein bands among them. The results suggest that the rice endosperm ADPglucose pyrophorsphorylase is tetrameric and composed of multiple subunits with similar amino acid structure. 相似文献

Development of Desiccation Tolerance during Embryogenesis in Rice (Oryza sativa) and Wild Rice (Zizania palustris) (Dehydrin Expression,Abscisic Acid Content,and Sucrose Accumulation) 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2

The ability of seeds to withstand desiccation develops during embryogenesis and differs considerably among species. Paddy rice (Oryza sativa L.) grains readily survive dehydration to as low as 2% water content, whereas North American wild rice (Zizania palustris var interior [Fasset] Dore) grains are not tolerant of water contents below 6% and are sensitive to drying and imbibition conditions. During embryogenesis, dehydrin proteins, abscisic acid (ABA), and saccharides are synthesized, and all have been implicated in the development of desiccation tolerance. We examined the accumulation patterns of dehydrin protein, ABA, and soluble saccharides (sucrose and oligosaccharides) of rice embryos and wild rice axes in relation to the development of desiccation tolerance during embryogenesis. Dehydrin protein was detected immunologically with an antibody raised against a conserved dehydrin amino acid sequence. Both rice and wild rice embryos accumulated a 21-kD dehydrin protein during development, and an immunologically related 38-kD protein accumulated similarly in rice. Dehydrin protein synthesis was detected before desiccation tolerance had developed in both rice embryos and wild rice axes. However, the major accumulation of dehydrin occurred after most seeds of both species had become desiccation tolerant. ABA accumulated in wild rice axes to about twice the amount present in rice embryos. There were no obvious relationships between ABA and the temporal expression patterns of dehydrin protein in either rice or wild rice. Wild rice axes accumulated about twice as much sucrose as rice embryos. Oligosaccharides were present at only about one-tenth of the maximum sucrose concentrations in both rice and wild rice. We conclude that the desiccation sensitivity displayed by wild rice grains is not due to an inability to synthesize dehydrin proteins, ABA, or soluble carbohydrates. 相似文献

Laboratory bioassays and field surveys were carried out to compare the resistance of three transgenic rice (Oryza sativa L.) lines including Bt-DL expressing a single gene cry1Ab, Bt-KF6 expressing stacked genes cry1Ac and CpTI genes and Bt-SY63 expressing a fusion gene cry1Ab/cry1Ac, respectively, to an important rice pest Chilo suppressalis (Walker). In addition, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were conducted to monitor the Bt protein expressions in rice leaves and stems at different rice growth stages. Results showed that all the transgenic rice lines exhibited significantly high resistance to the pest compared with their corresponding nontransformed isolines. Among the transgenic rice lines, Bt-SY63 and Bt-KF6 had higher resistance to C. suppressalis at early growth stage, but lower resistance at late stages, while the pest resistance of Bt-DL was relatively stable throughout the growing season. The results were consistent with ELISA results showing that Bt protein levels in Bt-SY63 or Bt-KF6 leaves decreased in late growth stages, but were relatively stable in Bt-DL at all growth stages. This demonstrates that the resistance to a pest by Bt plants is positively correlated with Cry protein expression levels in plant tissues. Compared with Bt-SY63 and Bt-KF6, the Bt protein expression levels were significantly lower in Bt-DL, while its resistance to C. suppressalis was the highest. This may suggest that C. suppressalis is more susceptible to Cry1Ab than to Cry1Ac. The data from the current study are valuable for decision-making for commercial use of Bt rice lines and development of appropriate pest control and resistance management strategies for the transgenic rice lines. 相似文献

Genomewide comparative phylogenetic and molecular evolutionary analysis of tubby-like protein family in Arabidopsis, rice, and poplar 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Tubby-like proteins, which are characterized by a highly conserved tubby domain, play an important role in the maintenance and function of neuronal cells during postdifferentiation and development in mammals. In additional to the tubby domain, most tubby-like proteins in plants also possess an F-box domain. Plants also appear to harbor a large number of TLP genes. To gain insight into how TLP genes evolved in plants, we conducted a comparative phylogenetic and molecular evolutionary analysis of the tubby-like protein gene family in Arabidopsis, rice, and poplar. Genomewide screening identified 11 TLP genes in Arabidopsis, 14 in rice, and 11 in poplar. Phylogenetic trees, domain organizations, and intron/exon structures classified this family into three subfamilies and indicated that species-specific expansion contributed to the evolution of this family in plants. We determined that in rice and poplar, the tubby-like protein family had expanded mainly through segmental duplication events. Tissue-specific expression analysis indicated that functional diversification of the duplicated TLP genes was a major feature of long-term evolution. Our results also demonstrated that the tubby and F-box domains had co-evolved during the evolution of proteins containing both domains. 相似文献
