D-class cyclins play important roles in controlling the cell cycle in development and in response to external signals by forming
the regulatory subunit of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) complexes. To evaluate the effects of D-class cyclins in transgenic
rice plants, Arabidopsis cyclin D2 gene (CycD2) was linked to the maize ubiquitin1 promoter (Ubi1) and introduced into rice by the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method. Genomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), ribonucleic acid (RNA), and Western blot hybridizations
of the Ubi1:CycD2 plants revealed copy number of transgene and its increased expression in leaf and callus cells at messenger RNA (mRNA) and/or
protein levels. The H1 kinase assay using the immunoprecipitates of protein extracts from the Ubi1:CycD2 plants and nontransgenic controls demonstrated that the introduced Arabidopsis CycD2 forms a functional CycD2/CDK complex
with an unidentified CDK of rice. Shoot and root growth was enhanced in the Ubi1:CycD2 seedlings compared with nontransgenic controls, together, suggesting that Arabidopsis cyclin D2 interacts with a rice cyclin-dependent
kinase, consequently enhancing seedling growth. 相似文献

Transgenic rice (Oryza sativa) overexpressing Arabidopsis phytochrome A (phyA) was cultivated up to the T3 generation in paddy to elucidate the role of phyA in determining the plant architecture and the productivity of sunlight-grown rice plants. PhyA is light-labile and controls plant growth in response to the far-red light-dependent high-irradiance response as well as the very low fluence response. The Arabidopsis phyA gene linked to the rice rbcS promoter was transformed into embryogenic rice calli, and the calli were regenerated to whole plants. Compared to wild-type seedlings, the rbcS::PHYA transgenic seedlings contained more phyA when grown in the dark, and at least 10-fold more phyA when exposed to white light. When grown in paddy, the phyA transgenic plants in general exhibited reduced plant height (dwarfing), larger grain size, higher chlorophyll content, smaller tiller number, and low grain fertility compared to wild-type plants. The heading stage was not significantly changed. However, it is likely that a certain level of phyA is a prerequisite for induction of such changes. It is suggested that phyA overproduction in rice could be a useful tool to improve rice grain productivity by the larger grain size that increases grain yield and the dwarfing that tolerates lodging-associated damage. 相似文献

We established an effective biolistic transformation procedure fortransferring foreign genes into garlic (Allium sativumL.),which we demonstrated by generating transgenic plants resistant tochlorsulfuron, a sulfonylurea herbicide. We subcultured callus tissue from theapical meristem of garlic cloves and repeatedly selected calli with brittle,non-mucilaginous surfaces for over six months, to increase transformationefficiency. We then constructed recombinant DNA that contained the acetolactatesynthase (ALS) gene from a chlorsulfuron-resistantArabidopsis mutant, the cauliflower mosaic virus 35Spromoter, the -glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene, and the hygromycinphosphotransferase (HPT) selectable marker gene. The garlic calli werebombarded twice with tungsten particles coated with the DNA constructs. Transformed calliwere efficiently selected by embedding them in solid agar medium containing 50mg l–1 hygromycin B. Selected propagules wereregenerated into 12 independent plants. We confirmed that the transgenes wereintegrated and expressed in the plants using PCR-Southern and Northern blotanalyses and by -glucuronidase expression assay forGUS. The regenerated plants survived in the presence of 3mg l–1 chlorsulfuron, demonstrating that theirALS was insensitive to this herbicide. These results illustrate the successfultransformation of foreign genes into garlic plants. The set of proceduresdeveloped in this study is applicable to the generation of transgenic garlicplants with other agronomically beneficial traits.

Chitinases, -1,3-glucanases, and ribosome-inactivating proteins are reported to have antifungal activity in plants. With the aim of producing fungus-resistant transgenic plants, we co-expressed a modified maize ribosome-inactivating protein gene, MOD1, and a rice basic chitinase gene, RCH10, in transgenic rice plants. A construct containing MOD1 and RCH10 under the control of the rice rbcS and Act1 promoters, respectively, was co-transformed with a plasmid containing the herbicide-resistance gene bar as a selection marker into rice by particle bombardment. Several transformants analyzed by genomic Southern-blot hybridization demonstrated integration of multiple copies of the foreign gene into rice chromosomes. Immunoblot experiments showed that MOD1 formed approximately 0.5% of the total soluble protein in transgenic leaves. RCH10 expression was examined using the native polyacrylamide-overlay gel method, and high RCH10 activity was observed in leaf tissues where endogenous RCH10 is not expressed. R1 plants were analyzed in a similar way, and the Southern-blot patterns and levels of transgene expression remained the same as in the parental line. Analysis of the response of R2 plants to three fungal pathogens of rice, Rhizoctonia solani, Bipolaris oryzae, and Magnaporthe grisea, indicated statistically significant symptom reduction only in the case of R. solani (sheath blight). The increased resistance co-segregated with herbicide tolerance, reflecting a correlation between the resistance phenotype and transgene expression. 相似文献

A β-carotene is the most well-known dietary source as provitamin A carotenoids. Among β-carotene-producing Golden Rice varieties, PAC (Psy:2A:CrtI) rice has been previously developed using a bicistronic recombinant gene that linked the Capsicum Psy and Pantoea CrtI genes by a viral 2A sequence. To enhance β-carotene content by improving this PAC gene, its codon was optimized for rice plants (Oryza sativa L.) by minimizing the codon bias between the transgene donor and the host rice and was then artificially synthesized as stPAC (stPsy:2A:stCrtI) gene. The GC content (58.7 from 50.9%) and codon adaptation index (0.85 from 0.77) of the stPAC gene were increased relative to the original PAC gene with 76% DNA identity. Among 67 T1 seeds of stPAC transformants showing positive correlations between transgene copy numbers (up to three) and carotenoid contents, three stPAC lines with a single intact copy were chosen to minimize unintended insertional effects and compared to the representative line of the PAC transgene with respect to their codon optimization effects. Translation levels were stably increased in all three stPAC lines (3.0-, 2.5-, 2.9-fold). Moreover, a greater intensity of the yellow color of stPAC seeds was correlated with enhanced levels of β-carotene (4-fold, 2.37 μg/g) as well as total carotenoid (2.9-fold, 3.50 μg/g) relative to PAC seeds, suggesting a β-branch preference for the stPAC gene. As a result, the codon optimization of the transgene might be an effective tool in genetic engineering for crop improvement as proven at the enhanced levels of translation and carotenoid production. 相似文献

In order to develop a high-level expression system in transgenic rice, we inserted a synthetic gene (sgfp) encoding a modified form of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) into two expression vectors, Act1-sgfp for an untargeted and rbcS-Tp-sgfp for a chloroplast targeted expression. Several fertile transgenic rice plants were produced by the Agrobacterium-mediated method. Confocal microscopic analyses demonstrated that, in cells expressing the Act1-sgfp, GFP fluorescence was localized within the cytoplasm and nucleoplasm whereas, in cells expressing the rbcS-Tp-sgfp fusion gene, the fluorescence was specifically targeted to chloroplasts and non-green plastids. The levels of sgfp expression were about 0.5% of the total soluble protein in mature leaf tissues of the Act1-sgfp transformed lines. In contrast, expression levels were markedly increased in mature leaf tissues of the rbcS-Tp-sgfp transformed lines, yielding about 10% of the total soluble protein. N-terminal sequencing of the localized GFPs revealed that the Tp-GFP fusion protein was correctly processed during import to non-green plastids, as well as to chloroplasts. Thus, our results demonstrate that GFP can be produced at high levels and localized in specific subcellular spaces of transgenic plants, providing a high-level expression system for general use in rice, an agronomically important cereal. 相似文献

Numerous reports have predicted/hypothesized a role for probenazole-induced protein (PBZ1) as a molecular marker in rice self-defense mechanism. However, the precise function of PBZ1 remains unknown. In the present study, we examined PBZ1 as a putative cell death marker in rice. For this, we focused our attention on a rice lesion mimic mutant (LMM), spotted leaf 1 ( spl1), which has been used to study the programmed cell death (PCD) phenomenon during lesion development in leaf. Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DGE), 18 colloidal Coomassie brilliant blue stained protein spots were found to be differentially expressed in the leaves of spl1 mutant. After analysis of these spots by MALDI-TOF-MS, we identified the PBZ1 protein to be highly inducible in spl1. On the basis of these results, we proceeded to verify whether PBZ1 is highly expressed in the tissues undergoing PCD in rice. To do so, we performed immunoblot analysis and immunolocalization and used transgenic lines carrying the PBZ1 promoter fused with GFP. Results demonstrated that the expression levels and localizations of PBZ1 dramatically coincided with tissues undergoing PCD, namely, during leaf senescence, root aerenchyma formation, coleoptiles senescence, root cap, and seed aleurone layer. Furthermore, localization of the PBZ1 protein was also tightly correlated with TUNEL signal in the seed aleurone layer. As DNA fragmentation is a hallmark of PCD, this result clearly indicates a role for PBZ1 in rice tissues undergoing PCD. In conclusion, our results provide strong support for the hypothesis that PBZ1 is a molecular marker in rice defense response, and can serve as a novel potential marker for cell death/PCD in rice. 相似文献
