Embodiment 1

[0028] 1. Extraction of total RNA from tobacco roots

[0029] The main tobacco variety Yunyan 87 in my country was used as the material. After washing the young roots with sterile water, the total RNA of tobacco was extracted with TRNzol TotalRNA Reagent.

[0030] 1) Take 0.1 g of young tobacco root and grind it sufficiently in liquid nitrogen for 55 seconds, and add 1 mL of TRNzol;

[0031] 2) Place the homogenized sample at 15-30°C for 5 minutes to completely separate the nucleic acid-protein complex;

[0032] 3) Centrifuge at 12000rpm for 10m at 4°C, and take the supernatant;

[0033] 4) Add 0.2mL chloroform, cover the tube cap, shake vigorously for 15s, and place at room temperature for 3min;

[0034] 5) Centrifuge at 4°C, 12000rpm for 10-15m, the sample will be divided into three layers: the yellow organic phase, the middle layer and the upper colorless water phase, RNA is mainly in the water phase, transfer the water phase to a new centrifuge tube;

[0035] 6) Add an ...

Embodiment 2

[0195] application of the inhibitor nornicotine,

[0196] Two days before tobacco topping, the inhibitor containing 30ug / mL dsRNA was sprayed on the root surface of the tobacco in the experimental group before 9 am or after 5 pm, and the application rate was 10mL / plant. The experimental group and the control group each have 4 groups, and each group has 100 tobacco plants, which are harvested and baked after normal maturity, and the nicotine content in the tobacco leaves is sampled to determine the content of nicotine. As a result of the experiment, compared with the control, the nicotine content in the middle leaves decreased by 43.36%, and the nicotine content in the upper leaves decreased by 55.42%, as shown in Table 1.

Embodiment 3

[0201] In this example, 10 mL / plant of the inhibitor containing 30 ug / mL dsRNA was applied to the leaves of tobacco. Others are identical with embodiment 2. According to the experimental results, compared with the control, the nicotine content in the middle leaves decreased by 18.92%, and the nicotine content in the upper leaves decreased by 23.31%.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing an inhibitor for reducing tobacco nicotine synthesis by a double-stranded RNA interference technology and an application thereof. The method comprises extracting RNA from tobacco, carrying out reverse transcription to obtain cDNA of a tobacco putrescine-N-methyltransferase (PMT) gene, amplifying a fragment of the gene cDNA through a PCR technology, connecting the fragment to a plasmid vector PET-21a for expressing RNA, transferring the plasmid into an RNAE3 enzyme-free Escherichia coli cell, expressing a hairpin dsRNA, crushing the cell to obtain a dsRNA crude preparation, and orderly adding glycerol, a protectant and a dispersant into the dsRNA crude preparation to obtain the inhibitor for reducing tobacco nicotine synthesis. The inhibitor is applied to tobacco according to a ratio of 5 to 15mL / plant so that tobacco nicotine synthesis is reduced. The method has the advantages of simple production processes, low cost, and no damage to human, domestic animals and higher animals, is suitable for large-scale application for tobacco, and has a wide industrial prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to plant cultivation technology, and in particular relates to a method for preparing an inhibitor for reducing tobacco nicotine synthesis by double-stranded RNA interference technology and its application. Background technique [0002] Nicotine, also known as nicotine, belongs to the pyridine family of alkaloids and is the main component of alkaloids in tobacco. Its content is closely related to the quality and availability of tobacco leaves, and it is also one of the main quality indicators in cigarettes. The nicotine content in high-quality tobacco leaves is generally 1.5-3.5%. The nicotine content of tobacco leaves is low, the smoke has a low strength and little aroma; the nicotine content is high, the smoke strength is too strong, the irritation is enhanced, and a spicy taste is produced. In the main production areas of flue-cured tobacco in my country, the problem of high nicotine content, especially in the upper leaves, is ...
