黄瓜毛状根的诱导及细胞分裂素6-BA对其生长和形态的影响

含农杆碱型Ri质粒pRiA4b的发根农杆菌(Agrobacteriumrhizogenes)ATCC15834感染黄瓜子叶外植体5d后产生毛状根,毛状根可直接从叶片外植体叶脉处产生。感染10d后,约90%的子叶外植体产生毛状根。毛状根能在无外源生长调节剂的MS固体和液体培养基上自主生长。PCR扩增结果证实,发根农杆菌Ri质粒的rolB和rolC基因已在黄瓜毛状根基因组中整合并得到表达。挑选一无菌黄瓜毛状根系置于含不同浓度6-BA的MS培养基中悬浮培养来探讨细胞分裂素6-BA对黄瓜毛状根生长及其形态变化的影响。结果表明,细胞分裂素6-BA能促进黄瓜毛状根的生长及改变其生长形态。随着培养基中6-BA浓度的升高,黄瓜毛状根变得越来越短而粗,更少分枝。与对照相比,培养基中添加0·1~3·0mg/L6-BA能推迟毛状根最大生长峰的出现,降低其可溶性蛋白含量、SOD和POD酶活性;而黄瓜毛状根的乙烯释放高峰比其最大生长峰和SOD和POD酶活性高峰提前5天,但6-BA处理能降低毛状根的内源乙烯释放量。该结果表明细胞分裂素6-BA可能通过对乙烯生成和释放的调节来影响黄瓜毛状根的生长和形态并延缓毛状根的衰老。

Induction of Cucumber Hairy Roots and Effect of Cytokinin 6-BA on its Growth and Morphology

Hairy roots of Cucumis sativus L. could be incited directly from the cut edges of 10-day-old cotyledon explants after infection with the strain Agrobacterium rhizogenes ATCC15834 harboring agropine-type plasmid, pRiA4b for 5 days. It was observed that the percentage of rooting cotyledon explants was more than 90 % 10 days after infection. Hairy roots could grow rapidly and highly branched on solid plant growth regulator-free MS medium. The PCR amplification of rol B genes and vir C gene showed that T-DNA of Ri plasmid of A. rhizogenes was integrated and expressed into the genome of transformed cucumber hairy roots. A bacterium-free transformed cucumber hairy root line was selected to culture on solid MS medium to examine influence of exogenous cytokinin 6-BA on growth and morphology alteration of cucumber hairy roots. The results showed that cytokinin 6-BA can influence the growth and altered the morphology of hairy roots. With increasing of 6-BA concentrations, Cucumber hairy roots become shorter and thicker and less branched. 6-BA at the concentration of 0.1 to approximately 3.0 mg/L could delay the appearance of maximum growth peak by 5 days and decreased the content of soluble protein, enhanced the activities of SOD and POD and decreased the levels of endogenous ethylene evolution in cucumber hairy roots. Our results also indicated that cytokinin 6-BA in the medium could influence growth and morphology alternation of cucumber hairy roots and delay its senescence of hairy roots by acting through ethylene.
