Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of Rutaceae plant breeding, and in particular to a reagent for overcoming the incompatibility of distant hybridization of Rutaceae plants by utilizing D-Ser. Background Art

[0002] Distant hybridization refers to the hybridization between different species, genera or species with more distant genetic relationships in plant classification. Through distant hybridization, the characteristics and properties of different species and genera can be combined, genetic variation can be expanded, and new types of variation or even new species can be created. However, in order to hybridize between distantly related plants, reproductive barriers before and after fertilization must be overcome. Prozygotic barriers refer to the situation where the fertilization process of two fertile species cannot proceed after pollination, that is, there is an incompatibility phenomenon, including the inability of pollen to germinate on the stigma or abnormal germination, and the inability of pollen tubes to grow normally in the style although pollen can germinate normally.

[0003] The genus Citrus in the Rutaceae family has undergone many intra-genus hybridizations during its evolution, and most of the cultivated Citrus species are hybrids of two or more original species. However, among Rutaceae species outside the genus Citrus, such as Kumquat and Murraya paniculata, there are currently no reports of hybridization between them and other species, including Citrus species.

[0004] Citrus is an important fruit tree in the world, plays an important role in the national economy and has great economic value. Citrus Huanglongbing disease mainly infects plants of the Rutaceae family, and the cultivated plants of the genus Citrus, Trifoliate Orange and Fortunella are all its hosts. Outside the genus Citrus, Phellodendron and Osmanthus fragrans have extremely strong resistance to Huanglongbing disease. If the barrier of distant hybridization can be broken and Huanglongbing disease resistance can be introduced into citrus species, it will have great research value and economic value for the citrus planting industry to get rid of the trouble of Huanglongbing disease.

[0005] The incompatibility between distant pollen and stigma is the first obstacle to distant hybridization, which greatly limits the progress of distant hybridization breeding. Therefore, exploring efficient and widely applicable methods to overcome the incompatibility of distant hybridization is one of the important components of distant hybridization breeding in Rutaceae.

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] The selective fertilization referred to in the present invention is recorded in Modern Ecology as the phenomenon that sperm nuclei with a specific genetic basis preferentially fertilize egg cells. Selective fertilization is mainly manifested in physiological, biochemical and genetic characteristics, including distant hybridization incompatibility, competition between multiple pollen sperm nuclei, etc. In the embodiment of the present invention, the distant hybridization of Siji Mandarin Orange and Wampee is used as an example for explanation.

[0024] A reagent for overcoming the incompatibility of distant hybridization of Rutaceae plants. The reagent is a D-Ser solution with a concentration of 1-20 mmol / L.

[0025] In the Rutaceae plant species described in the present invention, the intergeneric hybridization incompatibility of the Rutaceae plants is overcome to promote germination, growth, entry into the stigma and complete the fertilization process. In the present invention, for different species of Rutaceae plants, the concentration of the D-Ser solution used is slightly different and can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0026] For example, the concentration of D-Ser solution used for four-season orange is 1-20 mmol / L. The method of using the reagent is to spray the reagent twice on the stigma of the bud stage of Rutaceae plants in the morning, and pollinate after the second drip.

[0027] When spraying, it is preferred to spray the reagent between 6:00 and 8:00 in the morning on a sunny day, and the dripping interval of the reagent is 30 minutes.

[0028] The reagents and methods of use for overcoming the incompatibility of distant hybridization of Rutaceae plants provided by the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the examples, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] D-Ser solution was used to treat the four-season orange to overcome the incompatibility of the four-season orange and the yellow peel distant hybridization. Specifically, the day before spraying the D-Ser solution, the flowers of the four-season orange that had already opened were first removed and then bagged for isolation. Before 8:00 am the next day, the unopened large bud stage flowers were sprayed with D-Ser solution twice. The concentration of D-Ser solution was 1mmol / L, and the treatment interval between the two sprayings was 30min.

[0031] After the second treatment, the yellow peel was pollinated and covered with pollination bags to prevent contamination by other pollens. Four days later, the pollination bags were removed, the styles were picked and fixed with Carnoy's fixative, and the pollen germination was observed by aniline blue staining.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] It is basically the same as Example 1, except that the concentration of the D-Ser solution is 5 mmol / L.

[0034] Example 3

[0035] It is basically the same as Example 1, except that the concentration of the D-Ser solution is 10 mmol / L.

[0036] Example 4

[0037] It is basically the same as Example 1, except that the concentration of the D-Ser solution is 20 mmol / L.

[0038] Figure 1 The stigmas of Mandarin orange were treated with D-Ser solutions of different concentrations and then stained with aniline blue 4 days after being pollinated with yellow pollen.

[0039] Comparative Example 1

[0040] The method is basically the same as Example 1, except that the unopened flower buds of the four-season orange are not treated by spraying the reagent.

[0041] Figure 2 This is the result of aniline blue staining of the stigma of the Four Seasons Mandarin Orange that was not sprayed with reagents and was 4 days after being pollinated with yellow pollen.

[0042] Comparative Example 2

[0043] The method is basically the same as Example 1, except that clean water is used as a reagent to spray the unopened flower buds of the four-season orange with the reagent.

[0044] Figure 3 To treat the stigma of Four Seasons Orange with clean water, the stigma of Four Seasons Orange was dyed with aniline blue 4 days after being pollinated with yellow pollen.

[0045] pass Figure 1-3By comparison, it can be seen that after the stigma of the four-season orange is treated with the D-Ser solution of the present invention, the yellow peel pollen can germinate, grow and enter the ovary to complete the fertilization process, and the incompatibility barrier of distant hybridization between the four-season orange and the yellow peel can be overcome.

[0046] The above contents are further detailed descriptions of the present invention in combination with specific / preferred implementations, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, they can also make several substitutions or modifications to these described embodiments without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these substitutions or modifications should be regarded as belonging to the protection scope of the present invention.
