Ubiquitination plays important roles in disease resistance in plants. We report the identification and functional characterization of the RING-type ubiquitin ligase gene VpUR9 from Chinese wild Vitis pseudoreticulata accession Baihe-35-1. VpUR9, encodes 164 amino acids and possesses a RING conserved motif. It is homologously cloned from the cDNA library of the high powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator [Schw.] Burr) resistant V. pseudoreticulata accession Baihe-35-1 inoculated with E. necator. The gene is induced in response to powdery mildew and salicylic acid. VpUR9 fused with FLAG-tag controlled by 35S promoter was transformed into 15 regenerated V. vinifera L. cv. Red Globe lines via Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation. Twelve of these lines were confirmed by Western blot of FLAG-tag. As a result, the powdery mildew-resistance of Red Globe transformed with VpUR9 was repressed. Furthermore, the expression of some disease-resistant related genes (NPR1, PR1, PR10 and PAL) of the transgenic Red Globe declined compared with wild type grapes when inoculated with powdery mildew or salicylic acid. When treated with jasmonic acid methyl ester, its PR1 gene expression decreased, while the expressions of NPR1, PR10 and PAL all increased, contrasting with the wild type grape.  相似文献

Key message

A novel powdery mildew-resistance gene, designated Pm58, was introgressed directly from Aegilops tauschii to hexaploid wheat, mapped to chromosome 2DS, and confirmed to be effective under field conditions. Selectable KASP? markers were developed for MAS.

Abstract

Powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis (DC.) f. sp. tritici (Bgt) remains a significant threat to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production. The rapid breakdown of race-specific resistance to Bgt reinforces the need to identify novel sources of resistance. The d-genome species, Aegilops tauschii, is an excellent source of disease resistance that is transferrable to T. aestivum. The powdery mildew-resistant Ae. tauschii accession TA1662 (2n?=?2x?=?DD) was crossed directly with the susceptible hard white wheat line KS05HW14 (2n?=?6x?=?AABBDD) followed by backcrossing to develop a population of 96 BC2F4 introgression lines (ILs). Genotyping-by-sequencing was used to develop a genome-wide genetic map that was anchored to the Ae. tauschii reference genome. A detached-leaf Bgt assay was used to screen BC2F4:6 ILs, and resistance was found to segregate as a single locus (χ?=?2.0, P value?=?0.157). The resistance gene, referred to as Pm58, mapped to chromosome 2DS. Pm58 was evaluated under field conditions in replicated trials in 2015 and 2016. In both years, a single QTL spanning the Pm58 locus was identified that reduced powdery mildew severity and explained 21% of field variation (P value?<?0.01). KASP? assays were developed from closely linked GBS-SNP markers, a refined genetic map was developed, and four markers that cosegregate with Pm58 were identified. This novel source of powdery mildew-resistance and closely linked genetic markers will support efforts to develop wheat varieties with powdery mildew resistance.

Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are closely related to abiotic stress tolerance of plants. In the present study, we identified a novel Em-like gene from lettuce, termed LsEm1, which could be classified into group 1 LEA proteins, and shared high homology with Cynara cardunculus Em protein. The LsEm1 protein contained three different 20-mer conserved elements (C-element, N-element, and M-element) in the C-termini, N-termini, and middle-region, respectively. The LsEm1 mRNAs were accumulated in all examined tissues during the flowering and mature stages, with a little accumulation in the roots and leaves during the seedling stage. Furthermore, the LsEm1 gene was also expressed in response to salt, dehydration, abscisic acid (ABA), and cold stresses in young seedlings. The LsEm1 protein could effectively reduce damage to the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and protect LDH activity under desiccation and salt treatments. The Escherichia coli cells overexpressing the LsEm1 gene showed a growth advantage over the control under drought and salt stresses. Moreover, LsEm1-overexpressing rice seeds were relatively sensitive to exogenously applied ABA, suggesting that the LsEm1 gene might depend on an ABA signaling pathway in response to environmental stresses. The transgenic rice plants overexpressing the LsEm1 gene showed higher tolerance to drought and salt stresses than did wild-type (WT) plants on the basis of the germination performances, higher survival rates, higher chlorophyll content, more accumulation of soluble sugar, lower relative electrolyte leakage, and higher superoxide dismutase activity under stress conditions. The LsEm1-overexpressing rice lines also showed less yield loss compared with WT rice under stress conditions. Furthermore, the LsEm1 gene had a positive effect on the expression of the OsCDPK9, OsCDPK13, OsCDPK15, OsCDPK25, and rab21 (rab16a) genes in transgenic rice under drought and salt stress conditions, implying that overexpression of these genes may be involved in the enhanced drought and salt tolerance of transgenic rice. Thus, this work paves the way for improvement in tolerance of crops by genetic engineering breeding.  相似文献

Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) have been shown to be involved in stress tolerance. However, their functions in Prunus mume under heat treatment are poorly characterized. To improve our understanding of sHSPs, we cloned a sHSP gene, PmHSP17.9, from P. mume. Sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis indicated that PmHSP17.9 was a member of plant cytosolic class III sHSPs. Besides heat stress, PmHSP17.9 was also upregulated by salt, dehydration, oxidative stresses and ABA treatment. Leaves of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana that ectopically express PmHSP17.9 accumulated less O2 ? and H2O2 compared with wild type (WT) after 42 °C treatment for 6 h. Over-expression of PmHSP17.9 in transgenic Arabidopsis enhanced seedling thermotolerance by decreased relative electrolyte leakage and MDA content under heat stress treatment when compared to WT plants. In addition, the induced expression of HSP101, HSFA2, and delta 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase (P5CS) under heat stress was more pronounced in transgenic plants than in WT plants. These results support the positive role of PmHSP17.9 in response to heat stress treatment.  相似文献

Allocation of the chromosome 2D of Ae. tauschii in triticale background resulted in changes of its organization, what is related to varied expression of genes determining agronomically important traits.

Abstract

Monosomic alien addition lines (MAALs) are crucial for transfer of genes from wild relatives into cultivated varieties. This kind of genetic stocks is used for physical mapping of specific chromosomes and analyzing alien genes expression. The main aim of our study is to improve hexaploid triticale by transferring D-genome chromatin from Aegilops tauschii × Secale cereale (2n = 4x = 28, DDRR). In this paper, we demonstrate the molecular cytogenetics analysis and SSR markers screening combined with phenotype analysis and evaluation of powdery mildew infection of triticale monosomic addition lines carrying chromosome 2D of Ae. tauschii. We confirmed the inheritance of chromosome 2D from the BC2F4 to the BC2F6 generation of triticale hybrids. Moreover, we unveiled a high variable region on the short arm of chromosome 2D, where chromosome rearrangements were mapped. These events had direct influence on plant height of hybrids what might be connected with changes at Rht8 loci. We obtained 20 semi-dwarf plants of BC2F6 generation carrying 2D chromosome with the powdery mildew resistance, without changes in spike morphology, which can be used in the triticale breeding programs.
