Problems solved by technology

The Arabidopsis splicing factor SF1 interacts with both AtU2AF65a and AtU2AF65b. The mutant sf1 of this gene has an early flowering period under long-day sunlight, but the mutant plants are very short (Jiang et al.2014), which is difficult to apply

Embodiment 1

[0032] Example 1 Identification of homozygotes in mutants atu2af65b-1 and atu2af65b-2 of AtU2AF65b gene

[0033] (1) Take Arabidopsis thaliana grown for about 2 weeks in the greenhouse, cut one or two leaves from the plant, 5-10 mg, put them into a centrifuge tube, add 400 μL of extraction buffer (200mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 250mM NaCl, 25mM EDTA, 0.5% SDS), the genomic DNA was extracted by conventional methods.

[0034] (2) Using genomic DNA as a template, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification was performed with primers LP and RP, LB and RP, respectively.

[0035] The reaction system for PCR amplification is: 2×Es Taq MasterMix 10 μL, upstream primer LP1 / LB1 (20 μmol / L) 0.5 μL, downstream primer RP1 (20 μmol / L) 0.5 μL, template 1.0 μL, add ddH 2 O to a total volume of 20 μL.

[0036] The reaction conditions for PCR amplification were as follows: first, pre-denaturation at 95°C for 5 minutes; 30 cycles of denaturation at 94°C for 30 seconds, annealing at 56°C for 30 secon...

Embodiment 2

[0049] On the basis of Example 1, the gene expression level of AtU2AF65b in mutant atu2af65b-1 and atu2af65b-2 homozygous was detected

[0050] (1) Take 10 mg each of the homozygous mutants and wild-type Arabidopsis plants grown on MS medium for two weeks, and extract the wild-type respectively with a total RNA extraction kit (purchased from Tiangen Biochemical Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd.) and the total RNA of the mutant, the method was carried out according to the instructions. 1ug RNA was reverse-transcribed into cDNA with reverse transcriptase (Beijing Quanshijin Biotechnology Co., Ltd.).

[0051] (2) Using cDNA as a template, using AtU2AF65b gene-specific primers, detect the amount of AtU2AF65b transcripts in the wild type and mutants by reverse transcription PCR (according to the general one-step RT- PCR kit instructions). The primer sequences are:

[0052] Upstream primer (AtU2AF65b F): 5'-ATGATGAGTTACGAAGGCAACGGAG-3', the nucleotide sequence of which is shown in S...

Embodiment 3

[0061] Construction of AtU2AF65b Overexpression Vector and Identification of Transgenic Plants

[0062] (1) Using the cDNA of wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana in Example 2 as a template, use the same AtU2AF65b gene-specific primers (AtU2AF65b F and AtU2AF65b R) in Example 2 to amplify the full length of the AtU2AF65b coding region. The primer sequences are:

[0063] Upstream primer (AtU2AF65b F): 5'-ATGATGAGTTACGAAGGCAACGGAG-3', the nucleotide sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID NO.9;

[0064] Downstream primer (AtU2AF65bR): 5'-TCAGTCTTCGTAGTCGCCTTGG-3', the nucleotide sequence of which is shown in SEQID NO.10;

[0065] The reaction system of PCR amplification is: high-fidelity DNA polymerase 0.5 μL, 5×DNA polymerase buffer 10 μL, dNTP 1 μL, upstream primer (20 μmol / L) 1.5 μL, downstream primer (20 μmol / L) μL, add ddH 2 O to a total volume of 50 μL. The PCR amplification conditions were the same as in Example 2.

[0066] The length of the PCR product was detected by electro...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of molecular biology and biologics, in particular to the application of a splicing cofactor AtU2AF65b in regulation and control of the flowering phase of a plant. The splicing cofactor AtU2AF65b is from arabidopsis thaliana; by increasing the expression level of a gene, flowering of the plant can be delayed, and by decreasing the expression level of the gene, an annual plant can be flowered in advance or the juvenile phase of a perennial plant is shortened; the splicing cofactor AtU2AF65b can be applied to a growing progress of genetically engineered plants.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of molecular biology and biotechnology, and provides an application of a splicing auxiliary factor AtU2AF65b in regulating plant flowering. Background technique [0002] Flowering is an important growth and development process of higher plants transitioning from vegetative growth to reproductive growth. There are many factors that affect plant flowering, among which light (photoperiod pathway) and temperature (vernalization pathway) are the two main external factors, gibberellin (GA pathway) and some autonomous factors (autonomous pathway) are the main internal ones. These factors initiate flower development at the shoot tip by regulating the expression of multiple genes such as flowering genes FT (FLOWERING LOCUS T), FD (FLOWERING LOCUS D), SOC1 (SUPPRESSOR OFOVER EXPRESSION OF CONSTANS 1) and FD (FLOWERING LOCUS D) The process transforms the shoot apical meristem into the flower (tip) meristem, and realizes the pr...
