Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of agricultural planting and relates to a seed priming method for improving the early disease resistance of pepper seeds. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, after Arabidopsis thaliana recognizes pathogenic bacteria, phosphorylation modification occurs in the intracellular juxtamembrane region of its chitin co-receptor CERK1, causing the receptor to enter a "vigilant" state lasting more than 48 hours. During this stage, CERK1 can conduct chitin signals more rapidly and persistently, thereby endowing plants with enhanced fungal resistance. Through practical research, it is found that this principle can also be used in the research and development of improving the disease resistance of pepper seeds. However, in the actual research and development process, the prior art generally simulates a pathogenic environment to stimulate seeds and uses the spontaneous changes of seeds to reach the "vigilant" state. However, after the pepper seeds are stimulated by pathogens in the environment, with the maturation and change of the seeds, the maintenance time of the "vigilant" state is short, unable to cover the critical period of seed germination, and unable to achieve the effect of significantly improving the early disease resistance of pepper seeds. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a seed priming method for improving the early disease resistance of pepper seeds, which solves the problem that after pepper seeds are stimulated by pathogens, with the maturation and change of the seeds, the turnover of seed proteins is relatively fast, resulting in a short maintenance time of the "vigilant" state, unable to cover the critical period of seed germination, and unable to achieve the effect of significantly improving the early disease resistance of pepper seeds.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A seed priming method for improving the early disease resistance of pepper seeds, comprising the following steps: S1. Pre-cleaning: Soak the seeds in sodium hypochlorite with a mass fraction of 1% for 5 - 10 minutes, then wash with sterile deionized water and dry to obtain pre-treated seeds; S2. Pulse phosphorylation activation treatment: Add seeds and an activation solution to a pressure-resistant polypropylene container connected to a vacuum pipeline, seal and evacuate to -0.08 MPa, maintain for 5 - 10 minutes, then restore to normal pressure, and then transfer to a constant temperature oscillator. The internal environment of the container is at a temperature of 25 - 30 °C and a humidity of ≥ 85%, and treat for 6 - 7 hours for phosphorylation activation treatment; The activation solution comprises the following components by mass fraction: 0.5 - 0.6% ATP-Mg 2+ lyophilized powder, 2 - 3% cell wall extract of Phytophthora capsici, 0.5 - 0.6% brazilin-cerium nanoparticles, Tris-HCl buffer solution; S3. Immunization training treatment: Transfer the seeds after phosphorylation activation treatment to a priming solution containing UV-inactivated Phytophthora capsici spore suspension and H2O2, and perform intermittent aeration treatment at 20 °C; S4. Stabilization treatment: Transfer the seeds after immunization training treatment to ascorbic acid solution, treat at 20 - 25 °C for 5 - 6 hours, filter and air-dry to obtain pepper seeds.

[0005] The present invention solves the problem of immune response interruption caused by insufficient signal intensity and rapid protein turnover when using a simulated environment to stimulate by phosphorylating to activate activity and constructing a "warning" state → simulating pathogen-induced immune memory → antioxidant stabilizing protein structure. While ensuring that the seeds have high resistance to Phytophthora capsici, it effectively extends the "warning" period.

[0006] Furthermore, the activation solution further comprises the following components by mass fraction: 1 - 1.5% of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, 0.8 - 1% of sodium alginate, 0.4 - 0.5% of PEG, 0.1 - 0.2% of L-ascorbyl palmitate, and the balance is Tris-HCl buffer.

[0007] Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, sodium alginate, PEG, and L-ascorbyl palmitate are used as bridges to solve the problems of poor compatibility, stratification, precipitation, oxidation inactivation, etc. that occur during the use and mixing of ATP-Mg 2+ lyophilized powder, Phytophthora capsici cell wall extract, and brazilin-cerium nanoparticles, ensuring that the activation solution has good stability and effectiveness during use.

[0008] Furthermore, the activation solution is prepared by the following method: A. Mix brazilin-cerium nanoparticles with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, add to Tris-HCl buffer, ultrasonically disperse at 30 - 35 °C for 10 - 15 minutes, then add L-ascorbyl palmitate, and stir and mix in the dark to obtain a first intermediate; B. Add PEG to Tris-HCl buffer and mix evenly, then add Phytophthora capsici cell wall extract, stir and mix evenly at 45 - 50 °C, then add sodium alginate and continue to stir evenly to obtain a second intermediate; C. Add ATP-Mg²⁺ lyophilized powder to the second intermediate, adjust the pH to 6.8 - 7.5, stir at 4 - 5 °C in the dark for 1 - 1.5 hours, then add the first intermediate, and oscillate and mix at 200 - 300 rpm to obtain the activation solution.

[0009] Furthermore, the Phytophthora capsici cell wall extract is prepared by the following method: B1. Culture the Phytophthora capsici strain using a culture medium, collect the mycelium, quickly freeze it in liquid nitrogen and then freeze-dry it until the water content is less than 5% to obtain freeze-dried mycelium. B2. Physically break the freeze-dried mycelium and then enzymatically break it using a mixed enzyme of cellulase and β-1,3-glucanase. Finally, separate, purify, collect the precipitate, and freeze-dry it for storage to obtain the cell wall extract of Phytophthora capsici.

[0010] Further, the specific method of the immune training treatment in S3 is: transfer the seeds after phosphorylation activation treatment to a priming solution containing UV-inactivated Phytophthora capsici spore suspension and H2O2, and perform intermittent aeration treatment at 20 °C for 12 hours, with aeration for 5 minutes every 2 hours.

[0011] Further, by mass fraction, the concentration of the ascorbic acid solution in S4 is 0.05%, and the solvent is a citric acid-disodium hydrogen phosphate buffer with a pH of 5.5 - 6.0.

[0012] Further, the concentration of UV-inactivated Phytophthora capsici spores in the priming solution in S3 is 1×10 5 -5×10 5 spores / mL, and the concentration of H2O2 is 0.03 - 0.05% by mass fraction.

[0013] Further, in step S2, add seeds and the activation solution to a pressure-resistant polypropylene container connected to a vacuum pipeline at a liquid-solid ratio of 3:1 (v / w).

[0014] Further, the concentration of the Tris-HCl buffer solution is 20 mM, and the pH = 7.5 - 8.0.

[0015] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. A seed priming method for improving the early disease resistance of pepper seeds, through pulsed phosphorylation activation treatment, uses a pulsed method to non-destructively open the internal material transport channels of the seeds, avoiding mechanical damage affecting the germination of the seeds. 2. The present invention activates the seed resistance through phosphorylation treatment to establish a basic resistance, and then combines immune training to enhance the resistance, which can effectively improve the resistance of the seeds to Phytophthora capsici. 3. The present invention solves the problem of the interruption of the immune response caused by insufficient signal intensity and rapid protein turnover when using a simulated environment to stimulate by phosphorylating to activate activity and constructing a "vigilant" state → simulating pathogen-induced immune memory → antioxidant stabilizing the protein structure. Under the condition of ensuring that the seeds have high resistance to Phytophthora capsici, the "vigilant" period is effectively extended. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0043] Test Example 1 Detection of the effects of crude toxins of Phytophthora capsici pathogens at different concentrations on the germination of pepper seeds. The blank group of pepper seeds was the seeds soaked only with 1% sodium hypochlorite, and the experimental groups were the pepper seeds treated by the methods of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-13. The results are shown in Table 1; the detection method is the prior art. The crude toxins of Phytophthora capsici pathogens were formulated into culture media containing only agar with volume ratio concentrations of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100%. Then, 10 pepper seeds were placed in each dish and placed under dark conditions at 25°C. After culturing for 4 days, the germination situation was recorded, and the statistics were carried out until the 11th day, and then the germination index was calculated; The calculation method of the germination index is:

[0044] GI is the germination index, Gt is the number of germinations per day during the final period of the germination test, Dt is the number of days of germination, and ∑ is the sum; Table 1 Germination index of pepper seeds

[0045] Combined with the data in Table 1, it can be seen that the present invention can effectively improve the resistance of seeds to Phytophthora capsici.

[0046] Test Example 2 The crude toxins of Phytophthora capsici pathogens were formulated into a culture medium containing only agar with a volume ratio concentration of 60%. The pepper seeds treated in Examples 1-4 and the blank group were placed on the culture medium and placed under dark conditions at 25°C, and the humidity was kept above 85%. 20 seeds treated by the same treatment method were placed on the culture medium. After culturing the seeds for 4 days, the emergence rate and the rate of bad seeds were counted, and the test was repeated. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0047] Table 2 Detection of emergence rate and rate of bad seeds

[0048] Combined with the data in Table 2, it can be seen that the emergence rate of the seeds treated by the present invention is significantly higher than that of the untreated seeds, and the rate of bad seeds is significantly reduced at a higher pathogen concentration, indicating that the present invention can maintain a stable "early warning state" for at least 4 days and has better disease resistance compared with the untreated seeds.
