Problems solved by technology

At present, most of the cold resistance genes of maize that have been cloned are positive regulators, and their cold resistance needs to be enhanced by transgenic overexpression, which has the problems of instability and limited application, and the effective negative regulation of cold resistance genes is still very limited. Therefore, it is of great application value to identify the genes that negatively regulate the cold resistance of maize and improve the cold resistance of maize through gene knockout.

Embodiment 1

[0052] Example 1 Construction of homozygous knockout mutant of ZmbZIP68 gene using CRISPR / Cas9 technology

[0053] The ZmbZIP68 gene involved in this example is derived from the maize LH244 inbred line, and its sequence in the maize genome is shown in SEQ ID NO. And positions 4659-6509 are all intron sequences; the cDNA sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO.2, and the amino acid sequence of the encoded protein is shown in SEQ ID NO.1. In this example, the ZmbZIP68 gene was knocked out in maize using the CRISPR / Cas9 technology, and a homozygous knockout mutant of the ZmbZIP68 gene was constructed.

[0054] 1. Construction of recombinant vector pBUE411-pCBC-MTaTb

[0055] After screening, it was determined that CRISPR / Cas9 knocked out two target sequences Ta and Tb of the ZmbZIP68 gene, wherein the target sequence Ta was the reverse complementary sequence of positions 1014-1033 of the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO. Positions 1170-1189 of the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.2. Design ampli...

Embodiment 2

[0082] Example 2 Low temperature treatment test of ZmbZIP68 gene knockout line

[0083] 1. Growth phenotype detection under low temperature stress

[0084] Low temperature stress can cause damage to maize leaves, as well as leaf dehydration and shrinkage. Taking wild-type maize plants as a control, the ZmbZIP68 gene knockout line constructed in Example 1 was subjected to a low temperature stress treatment test, as follows:

[0085] The 14-day-old maize seedlings (including 3-4 days of germination) grown under normal light conditions at 23°C were placed in a 4°C incubator for 3 days, and the treated ZmbZIP68CRISPR / Cas9 knockout lines D19 and D169 and the same A batch of wild type (LH244 ecotype) was placed at 23°C for 24h recovery, and then phenotype observation and picture collection were performed. The result is as figure 2 As shown, the results show that the ability of D19 and D169 to tolerate low temperature stress is significantly improved after low temperature treatme...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of plant genetic engineering, in particular to the application of ZmbZIP68 protein and its encoding gene in regulating maize tolerance to low temperature stress. The invention finds that the maize ZmbZIP68 gene can negatively regulate the cold resistance of plants, and can effectively improve the cold resistance of plants by reducing the expression level of the ZmbZIP68 gene. The invention utilizes CRISPR / Cas9 technology to obtain a ZmbZIP68 gene homozygous knockout maize line with excellent cold resistance, and the discovery of the cold resistance function of the ZmbZIP68 gene provides a new gene target and resources for cultivating cold-tolerant plant varieties, which is beneficial to maize The research on the molecular mechanism of cold tolerance is of great significance, which is of great significance to agricultural production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plant genetic engineering, in particular to the application of ZmbZIP68 protein and its encoding gene in regulating low temperature stress tolerance of maize. Background technique [0002] With the gradual reduction of the world's arable land and the increase of the world's population, human beings have an increasing demand for food. Corn is one of the three major food crops in the world. Its wild ancestor is teosinte, which was first domesticated by humans more than 9,000 years ago. Corn began to appear in the southwestern United States more than 4,000 years ago. The planting area began to spread to all parts of the world. During this process, the planting environment of maize gradually shifted from tropical regions to subtropical and temperate regions. Along with this process, the ambient temperature of maize growth gradually decreased. sensitive crops. In all biological and environmental adversities,...
