Abstract
Description
Application of OBF1 transcription factor in plant chromosome doubling and transgenic plant breeding methods Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of genetic engineering technology and genetics, and specifically relates to the application of OBF1 transcription factor in plant chromosome doubling and a transgenic plant breeding method. Background Art
[0002] Plant ploidy alterations are a key research topic in plant biology, plant biotechnology, and plant breeding. Compared to diploids, autopolyploids exhibit enlarged organs and increased metabolite content, offering excellent breeding value for crops whose vegetative organs are harvested and for asexual propagation. Therefore, chromosome doubling holds significant theoretical and commercial value.
[0003] Existing methods often use chemical agents and physical treatments to induce chromosome doubling in plant cells. For example, colchicine, nitrous oxide, heat treatment, methylaminopropylphosphonate, trifluralin, oryzanol, and propionamide have been used to produce a variety of plant chromosome-doubling lines. Additionally, 8-hydroxyquinoline, monobromonaphthalene, a mixture of monobromonaphthalene and colchicine, and a mixture of colchicine and 8-hydroxyquinoline can also be used to double plant chromosomes.
[0004] Among the above many methods, colchicine is commonly used as a doubling agent, but the doubling effect of colchicine on plants is difficult to meet the needs of the above research, and the main problem is that colchicine is greatly damaged to the plant material processed, often causing abnormal plant growth, deformity or even the death of the processed material, and easily causing plants to be unable to self-pollinate. In addition, colchicine is highly toxic and has greater toxicity and potential carcinogenicity to mammals including humans, and has a greater harm to the health and environmental safety of operators. Another kind of material commonly used for chromosome doubling is nitrous oxide gas, but nitrous oxide gas is not as effective as colchicine, which limits the application of nitrous oxide gas in chromosome doubling technology. Therefore, research and development of a brand-new plant chromosome doubling method has become one of the technical barriers faced by researchers in this area.
[0005] Summary of the Invention
[0006] The first object of the present invention is to provide an application of OBF1 transcription factor in plant chromosome doubling.
[0007] Specifically, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0008] An application of an OBF1 transcription factor in plant chromosome doubling, wherein the gene sequence of the OBF1 transcription factor is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, and the protein sequence thereof is shown in SEQ ID NO: 2.
[0009] Specifically, under the treatment of kanamycin, the OBF1 gene is introduced into the original plant cells or tissues to obtain a transgenic cell line or transgenic plant with doubled chromosomes.
[0010] Specifically, an existing plant expression vector can be used to construct a recombinant expression vector containing the OBF1ORF fragment, wherein the vector is a plant expression vector carrying kanamycin resistance.
[0011] When using the constructed OBF1 recombinant plant expression vector, any enhanced promoter or constitutive promoter, or chemically inducible promoter can be added before its transcription initiation nucleotide. These promoters can be used alone or in combination with other plant promoters.
[0012] To facilitate the identification and screening of transgenic plant cells or plants, all plant expression vectors can be modified, such as by adding a gene encoding an enzyme or luminescent compound that can be expressed in plants (such as the GUS gene or luciferase gene). Alternatively, the addition of a selectable marker gene can be omitted, and transformed plants can be screened directly based on chromosome doubling.
[0013] Specifically, the recombinant expression vector can be inserted into the plant expression vector multiple cloning site into the deoxyribonucleic acid from position 1 to position 486 from the 5' end of the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 to obtain the OBF1 overexpression vector.
[0014] Expression vectors carrying coding genes can be used to transform cells or tissues through biological methods such as Ti plasmids, Ri plasmids, plant virus vectors, direct DNA transformation, microinjection, electroporation, and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, and the transformed plant tissues can be cultivated into plants.
[0015] The second object of the present invention is to provide a plant breeding method.
[0016] The method may include the following technical solutions:
[0017] (1) crossing at least first and second parent plants to produce a heterozygous plant comprising a selected genetic background;
[0018] (2) producing a diploid progeny plant derived from the hybrid plant;
[0019] In embodiments of the present invention, the initial plant can be further defined as a diploid plant, wherein the T1 generation plant is a doubled diploid plant. The initial plant can be an interspecific hybrid plant or an intraspecific hybrid plant. Such a hybrid plant can be a member of a heterologous plant population, such as a plant population from open pollination. The hybrid plant can be obtained from any hybrid material, including local varieties, composites of different genetic backgrounds, and other plant collections.
[0020] The starting plant used in the present invention can be a dicotyledonous plant. Examples of dicotyledonous plants include tomato, tobacco and petunia.
[0021] (3) at the developmental stage of the initial plant forming pollen, cotyledons, hypocotyls, and young leaves, the plant is transformed with the overexpression OBF1 vector treated with kanamycin, the plant including the pollen, cotyledons, hypocotyls, and young leaves of the initial plant and the development of the plant after transformation;
[0022] In an embodiment of the present invention, the initial plants are treated with a selected concentration (pressure) of kanamycin. The selected pressure for the initial generation of kanamycin is 100 mg / g, or may be from about 100 mg / g to about 150 mg / g. In a further embodiment of the present invention, the plants are treated with kanamycin for a period of time, which may be the time required from wound callus to rooting, with the specific treatment duration varying depending on the species.
[0023] In an embodiment of the present invention, the TO generation seed is processed with the kanamycin of selected concentration (pressure).The selected pressure of second generation kanamycin is 25mg / g, also can be about 15mg / g to about 30mg / g.In a further embodiment of the present invention, with kanamycin, process seed for a period of time, the time period of selection can be from seed to the required time of germination, because of species difference, then specifically process duration difference.
[0024] (4) The T0 generation plants are self-pollinated to obtain homozygous strains, which have the characteristics of organ enlargement and chromosome doubling.
[0025] (5) selecting doubled diploid progeny plants derived from self-pollination, wherein the progeny plants have a desired genetic background; the plant chromosome doubling trait can be stably inherited.
[0026] (6) Self-pollination of the starting plants and the doubled plants can be performed by any method, including natural self-pollination and artificial self-pollination.
[0027] The OBF1 gene provided by the present invention can be introduced into plant cells or tissues using any vector that carries kanamycin resistance and can direct exogenous gene expression in plants. Under treatment with a certain kanamycin concentration, transgenic cell lines and transgenic plants with chromosome doubling can be efficiently obtained. The plant chromosome doubling can specifically involve the enlargement of plant bodies, plant organs, plant tissues, or cultured plant cells, resulting in chromosome doubling.
[0028] The research results show that when the OBF1 gene of the present invention is transferred into petunia, tomato and tobacco, and the gene is overexpressed in the plants under a certain pressure of kanamycin selection, the transgenic plants show enlarged leaves, flowers, seeds and stems, and increased cell size; the transgenic plants are easy to self-pollinate, and the chromosome doubling trait can be stably inherited.
[0029] Furthermore, the transgenic plants are resistant to gray mold pathogens. In pathogen infection experiments, T2 generation plants carrying the OBF1 gene showed resistance to pathogen infection, indicating that the OBF1 gene and its encoded protein provided by the present invention can significantly improve plant disease resistance.
[0030] Specifically, the present invention provides a method for cultivating OBF1 transgenic plants, comprising the following steps:
[0031] (1) Primers were designed for the ORF region of the OBF1 gene to obtain primers OE_F1 and OE_R1; wherein the sequence for amplifying the OBF1 ORF fragment is shown in SEQ ID NO: 3-4,
[0032] OE_F1:ATCTCGAGATGGCATCTTCTAGTGGAAA;
[0033] OE_R1: ATGAGCTCTCACATACTGATAGAACATAT.
[0034] (2) using the primers to perform PCR amplification and clone the OBF1 gene fragment; constructing the OBF1 gene overexpression fragment into a plant expression vector carrying kanamycin resistance to obtain a recombinant plasmid;
[0035] (3) 1 μl of recombinant plasmid was mixed with 100 μl of competent Agrobacterium and transferred into a 2510 electroporation cuvette. The transformation was performed by electroporation at 2510 V using an electric shock device. After transformation, the mixture was spread onto LB solid medium containing antibiotics to screen for Agrobacterium carrying the recombinant plasmid.
[0036] (4) expanding the culture of Agrobacterium carrying the recombinant plasmid; infecting the initial young plant tissues with the Agrobacterium; the young tissues include cotyledons, hypocotyls, young leaves, and pollen;
[0037] (5) The young tissue is cultured on a medium with kanamycin selection pressure to obtain callus tissue, which is then regenerated and screened to obtain new shoots; the new shoots are cut, and further cultured for seedling growth and rooting to obtain seedlings, which are then transferred to soil for further culture;
[0038] (6) After the seedlings continue to grow stably, leaf samples are taken and DNA is extracted using the CTAB method. PCR amplification is performed using the primer pair NPTII_F and NPTII_R with the extracted DNA as a template to confirm that the OBF1 gene sequence has been transferred into the plant, and a T0 generation transgenic strain is obtained.
[0039] Wherein, the sequences of NPTII_F and NPTII_R are shown in SEQ ID NO: 5-6,
[0040] NPTII_F: AAGATGGATTGCACGCAGGT;
[0041] NPTII_R:AGCTTCAAAGCAGATCCAAG.
[0042] (7) After the T0 generation transgenic lines bloom, they are self-pollinated to obtain T1 generation seeds, which are further screened on the second generation kanamycin resistance culture medium to obtain homozygous chromosome-doubled progeny, namely the T2 generation transgenic plants.
[0043] (8) The T2 generation transgenic plants were further cultured and self-pollinated. It was found that the T3 generation plants stably inherited the chromosome doubling trait.
[0044] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0045] The present invention's research results show that kanamycin treatment of young petunia tissue transformed with the OBF1 gene resulted in an increase in leaves, petals, styles, stigmas, anthers, seeds, stems, and cells in the transgenic plants, characteristics associated with chromosome doubling. Flow cytometry and cytological experiments confirmed that under a certain level of kanamycin selection pressure, OBF1 overexpression caused chromosome doubling in the plants. In addition to enlarged organs, the doubled plants exhibited normal growth, vigorous growth, and were easily self-pollinated, demonstrating that this trait is stably inherited. To further validate this phenotype, kanamycin treatment of young tomato and tobacco tissue transformed with the OBF1 gene also observed chromosome doubling in these transgenic tomatoes and tobacco. Further studies confirmed that the chromosome doubling trait was stably inherited in pureline offspring selected through self-pollination. The development of pureline chromosome-doubling plants is of great significance for the development of commercial varieties for seed crops, flowers, fruit trees, and vegetables. Homozygous chromosome-doubling plants can be directly used as commercial varieties.
[0046] Transgenic plants with doubled chromosomes exhibit resistance to biotic stresses, such as resistance to the pathogen Botrytis cinerea. This has important theoretical and practical implications for the development of biotic stress-tolerant plant varieties and can be used to cultivate and identify disease-resistant plant varieties.
