Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of genetic engineering, specifically involving the application of IRX10 protein in regulating plant vascular development and crop growth. Background Technology

[0002] Plant cell walls are unique structures in plant cells, providing vital functions such as mechanical support and water transport. Xylan is an important polysaccharide component of plant cell walls, cross-linking with polymers such as cellulose and lignin to form a complex network structure that ultimately determines the structure and function of the cell wall. Defects in xylan synthesis can lead to phenotypes such as reduced plant support, slow growth and development, and even death.

[0003] Vascular tissue, distributed throughout various plant organs, is a vital organ for transporting water and nutrients, primarily composed of xylem and phloem. The regionalized distribution of polysaccharides can regulate the differentiation of xylem vessels, forming protoxylem with spiral or annular patterns, or metaxylem with reticulate or pitted patterns. This differentiation allows for precise regulation of xylem vessel function, such as water transport, prevention of air embolism, and inhibition of pathogen invasion. How plants regulate the regionalization of cell wall polysaccharides remains to be studied. Therefore, elucidating the mechanisms of plant cell wall polysaccharide regionalization can provide guidance for regulating vessel development and offer targets for molecular design improvements in cultivating high-quality, high-yield crops.

[0031] In the above applications, the substance regulating gene expression can be a substance that performs at least one of the following six types of regulation: 1) regulation at the gene transcription level; 2) post-transcriptional regulation of the gene (i.e., regulation of splicing or processing of the primary transcript of the gene); 3) regulation of RNA transport of the gene (i.e., regulation of mRNA transport of the gene from the nucleus to the cytoplasm); 4) regulation of gene translation; 5) regulation of mRNA degradation of the gene; and 6) post-translational regulation of the gene (i.e., regulation of the activity of the protein translated from the gene).

[0032] In the above applications, the regulation of gene expression can be achieved by inhibiting or reducing gene expression, which can be achieved by gene knockout or gene silencing.

[0033] Gene knockout refers to the phenomenon of inactivating a specific target gene through homologous recombination. Gene knockout inactivates a specific target gene by altering its DNA sequence.

[0034] Gene silencing refers to the phenomenon of preventing or reducing gene expression without damaging the original DNA. Gene silencing presupposes no change in the DNA sequence, resulting in the absence or reduction of gene expression. Gene silencing can occur at two levels: transcriptional silencing due to DNA methylation, heterochromatinization, and position effects; and post-transcriptional gene silencing, which inactivates the gene at the post-transcriptional level through specific inhibition of target RNA. This includes antisense RNA, co-suppression, gene quelling, RNA interference (RNAi), and microRNA (miRNA)-mediated translational repression.

[0035] In the above applications, the substance regulating gene expression can be a reagent that inhibits or reduces the expression of the gene. The reagent that inhibits or reduces gene expression can be a gene knockout reagent, such as a reagent that knocks out the gene through homologous recombination or a reagent that knocks out the gene through CRISPR-Cas9. The reagent that inhibits or reduces gene expression can contain nucleotides targeting the gene, such as siRNA, shRNA, sgRNA, miRNA, or antisense RNA, or can be a vector expressing the nucleotides.

[0062] 3) can be an insertion of nucleotide C between nucleotides 1341 and 1342 in sequence 4 of the rice genome sequence listing, i.e., an insertion of a single base C between nucleotides 145-146 in the IRX10L gene coding sequence shown in sequence 3 of the sequence listing; a deletion of nucleotide 1081 in sequence 6 of the rice genome sequence listing, i.e., a deletion of nucleotide 140 in the IRX10L2 gene coding sequence shown in sequence 5 of the sequence listing; and an insertion of nucleotide T between nucleotides 460 and 461 in sequence 8 of the rice genome sequence listing, i.e., an insertion of a single base T between nucleotides 111-112 in the IRX10L3 gene coding sequence shown in sequence 7 of the sequence listing.

[0063] The present invention also provides the above-mentioned proteins or substances that regulate gene expression.

[0064] In this invention, the protein shown in A1) consists of 417 amino acid residues; the protein shown in A11) consists of 415 amino acid residues; the protein shown in A21) consists of 417 amino acid residues; the protein shown in A31) consists of 422 amino acid residues; the protein shown in A41) consists of 434 amino acid residues; and the protein shown in A51) consists of 420 amino acid residues.

[0065] The proteins mentioned above can be synthesized artificially, or their encoding genes can be synthesized first and then expressed biologically.

[0066] The protein tag refers to a polypeptide or protein fused with a target protein using in vitro DNA recombination technology for expression, detection, tracing, and / or purification of the target protein.

[0067] In this invention, identity refers to the similarity of amino acid sequences or nucleotide sequences. The identity of amino acid sequences can be determined using homology search sites on the Internet, such as the BLAST page on the NCBI homepage. For example, in Advanced BLAST 2.1, using blastp as the program, setting the Expect value to 10, setting all filters to OFF, using BLOSUM62 as the matrix, setting the Gap existence cost, Per residue gap cost, and Lambdaratio to 11, 1, and 0.85 (default values) respectively, and performing an identity search on a pair of amino acid sequences to calculate the identity value (%), then the identity value can be obtained.

[0068] In this invention, the 80% or more identity can be at least 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identity. This invention provides the function of IRX10 and its homologous proteins in regulating plant vascular development and crop growth. In wild-type Nipponbare, this invention altered the expression level of IRX10-related proteins, obtaining transgenic plants with reduced cell wall xylan content. Experiments demonstrated that IRX10 protein has the function of synthesizing plant cell wall xylan, which can be used to regulate the specific deposition of xylan around plant vascular pits, forming nano-lattice structures, thereby affecting the structure and function of plant vascular bundles. This has significant value for cultivating transgenic plants with optimized vascular function, and will play a significant role in improving crop growth and yield, providing economic value.

[0118] Step 2) Gene amplification is performed using primer pairs. The gene expressing the sgRNA targeting the target sequence in Step 1) is ligated to the pYLgRNA-OsU3m / LacZ (represented by U3pr in the map) and pYLgRNA-OsU6a (represented by U6a pr in the map) gene expression cassettes, and the above expression cassettes are then linked together. The combination method and ligation order are described in [reference needed]. Figure 1 ;

[0119] Step 3) Connect the expression cassettes from step 2) according to the designed combination and link them to the binary vector pYLCRISPR / Cas9Pubi-H (the original name of the vector was pYLCRISPR / Cas9-MH, hereinafter referred to as pYLCRISPR / Cas9-MH). This will yield plasmids MH-IRX10-IRX10L-IRX10L3 (expression vector for three gRNAs: gRNA targeting IRX10 target sequence 1, gRNA targeting IRX10L target sequence, and gRNA targeting IRX10L3 target sequence) and MH-IRX10-IRX10L4-IRX10L5 (expression vector for gRNAs targeting IRX10L1 and IRX10L3 target sequence). Expression vectors for three gRNAs: target sequence 2 gRNA, gRNA targeting IRX10L4 gRNA, and gRNA targeting IRX10L5 gRNA; and MH-IRX10L-IRX10L2-IRX10L3 (expression vectors for three gRNAs: gRNA targeting IRX10L, gRNA targeting IRX10L2, and gRNA targeting IRX10L3); The maps of plasmids MH-IRX10-IRX10L-IRX10L3, MH-IRX10-IRX10L4-IRX10L5, and MH-IRX10L-IRX10L2-IRX10L3 are shown below. Figure 1 As shown.

[0120] Step 4) Transform the plasmid from step 3) into E. coli DH5α competent cells, pick white plaques for culture, extract plasmids for sequencing, and retain plasmids that are correctly sequenced.

[0121] 1.2.2. Obtaining transgenic plants

[0122] Step 1) Culture of rice embryos

[0123] Wild-type rice Nipponbare seeds were dehulled and sterilized as follows: 70% ethanol for 3 minutes, 0.1% mercuric chloride solution for 5 minutes, 10% sodium hypochlorite solution for 20 minutes, and rinsed 3-4 times with sterile distilled water. The sterilized seeds were then spread on NB medium. Callus tissue grew from the mature embryo scutellum after 20 days and was subcultured onto NB medium, with subsequent subcultures every two weeks.

[0124] Step 2) Preparation of recombinant straw fungal suspension

[0125] The recombinant plasmids MH-IRX10-IRX10L-IRX10L3, MH-IRX10-IRX10L4-IRX10L5, and MH-IRX10L-IRX10L2-IRX10L3 described in section 1 were individually introduced into Agrobacterium tumefaciens EHA105 via electroporation. The cells were cultured in YEP liquid medium until the bacterial concentration at OD600nm was 0.8-1.0, yielding recombinant Agrobacterium tumefaciens EHA105 / MH-IRX10-IRX10L-IRX10L3, EHA105 / MH-IRX10-IRX10L4-IRX10L5, and EHA105 / MH-IRX10L-IRX10L2-IRX10L3, respectively.

[0126] Step 3) Co-culture of rice materials and Agrobacterium tumefaciens

[0127] The recombinant Agrobacterium tumefaciens suspension prepared in step 2) was used to separately infect the embryonic callus tissue in step 1), and the callus tissue was shaken and soaked at room temperature for 20 minutes. The callus tissue was then transferred to NB solid medium containing 20 μM acetylsyleugenol and lined with a layer of sterile filter paper, and cultured in the dark at 26°C for 2-3 days.

[0128] Step 4) Screening of resistant callus and plant regeneration

[0129] The callus tissue from step 3) was spread on a selective medium containing 50 mg / L hygromycin and cultured for two weeks. The screening was repeated once. The vigorous resistant callus tissue was transferred to a differentiation medium and allowed to grow into seedlings. The seedlings were then transferred to 1 / 2 MS solid medium to root and grow strong. They were then moved to a greenhouse or field to become T0 generation plants.

[0130] Transgenic plants transformed with plasmid MH-IRX10-IRX10L-IRX10L3 were named mutant Tm1, transgenic plants transformed with plasmid MH-IRX10-IRX10L4-IRX10L5 were named mutant Tm2, ​​and transgenic plants transformed with plasmid MH-IRX10L-IRX10L2-IRX10L3 were named mutant Tm3.

[0131] 1.2.3. Identification of Transgenic Materials

[0132] Step 1) Design primers approximately 300 bp upstream and downstream of the target site in Step 1) of section 1.2.1, as follows:

[0133] IRX10-CAS9-F1: 5'-GCAACTCTGATTTAATTGGAACA-3';

[0134] IRX10-CAS9-R1: 5'-ATGTATTGGAGATAAGCGGAAAA-3';

[0135] IRX10-CAS9-F2: 5'-CCCCTCACCTTCTCAACTCACCA-3';

[0136] IRX10-CAS9-R2: 5'-TAAACAACCTCCATTTGCGTCTG-3';

[0138] IRX10L-CAS9-R: 5'-CAATAGGGCCAATGCGAGGAAAT-3';

[0140] IRX10L2-CAS9-R: 5'-TGAACTTGATCGCACTTCTCATC-3';

[0141] IRX10L3-CAS9-F: 5'-GAGCAGAGCTAATCAAAAGCCCTCT-3';

[0142] IRX10L3-CAS9-R: 5'-GCGAATGCAGGATGAGCAATAGA-3';

[0143] IRX10L4-CAS9-F: 5'-GCTGCCTCCTTTGCTTCCTCCT-3';

[0144] IRX10L4-CAS9-R: 5'-CATATCAGTGCGAATGTGCGATT-3';

[0145] IRX10L5-CAS9-F: 5'-CAACCAAATCTTCTTGGCTTCAT-3';

[0146] IRX10L5-CAS9-R: 5'-AAGGAATACAATGGATGGCACAA-3'.

[0147] Step 2) Genomic DNA was extracted from the transgenic materials Tm1, Tm2, ​​and Tm3 obtained in step 1.2.2, and PCR amplification was performed using the primers designed in step 1), yielding a product of approximately 600 bp. The product was reacted with T7 endonuclease at 42°C for 1 hour, followed by DNA electrophoresis. Product verification will result in two outcomes: if the PCR product band can be cleaved by T7 enzyme into two smaller fragments, the corresponding plant is a heterozygous mutant; if the product cannot be cleaved by T7 enzyme, the corresponding plant genotype is homozygous or wild-type. Further, the uncleavable PCR product DNA was mixed with equal amounts of wild-type plant DNA, and PCR amplification was performed using the appropriate primers, followed by T7 enzyme digestion. Product verification will again result in two outcomes: if the PCR product can be cleaved, the corresponding plant is a homozygous mutant; if the PCR product cannot be cleaved, the corresponding plant is wild-type. Finally, the mutation site was determined by sequencing.

[0148] Based on the above methods, homozygous mutants of IRX10, Tm1, Tm2, ​​and Tm3, were obtained. Compared with wild-type rice Nipponbare, the IRX10 homozygous mutant Tm1 showed mutations in the genes of IRX10, IRX10L, and IRX10L3 in the rice genome. In the two homologous chromosomes, the genomic gene of IRX10 (Sequence 2 in the sequence listing) underwent the following changes: In the Nipponbare rice genome, nucleotide A was inserted between nucleotides 1934 and 1935 of Sequence 2 in the sequence listing, i.e., a single base A was inserted between nucleotides 560-561 of the IRX10 gene coding sequence shown in Sequence 1 in the sequence listing, resulting in a frameshift mutation. The translation of the IRX10 protein terminated prematurely after 187 amino acids, thus knocking out the IRX10 gene. In the two homologous chromosomes, the genomic gene of IRX10L (Sequence 4 in the sequence listing) underwent the following changes: In the Nipponbare rice genome, the sequence listing... In sequence 4, a nucleotide C was inserted between nucleotides 1340 and 1341, which is equivalent to a single C insertion between nucleotides 144-145 of the IRX10L gene coding sequence shown in sequence 3 of the sequence listing. This resulted in a frameshift mutation, causing premature termination of IRX10L protein translation after 48 amino acids, thus knocking out the IRX10L gene. In the genomes of two homologous chromosomes, the nucleotide sequence of the IRX10L3 gene in sequence 8 of the sequence listing underwent the following changes: In the genome of rice Nipponbare, a nucleotide T was inserted between nucleotides 459 and 460 of sequence 8 of the sequence listing, which is equivalent to a single T insertion between nucleotides 110-111 of the IRX10L3 gene coding sequence shown in sequence 7 of the sequence listing. This resulted in a frameshift mutation, causing premature termination of IRX10L3 protein translation after 38 amino acids, thus knocking out the IRX10L3 gene.

[0149] Compared to wild-type Nipponbare rice, the IRX10 polygenic homozygous mutant Tm2 exhibits mutations in the genes IRX10, IRX10L4, and IRX10L5 in the rice genome. In the two homologous chromosomes, the genomic gene of IRX10 (Sequence 2 in the sequence listing) shows the following changes: In the Nipponbare rice genome, a nucleotide T is inserted between nucleotides 257 and 258 of Sequence 2 in the sequence listing, specifically between nucleotides 13-14 of the IRX10 gene coding sequence shown in Sequence 1 in the sequence listing. This results in a frameshift mutation, causing premature termination of IRX10 protein translation after 6 amino acids, thus knocking out the IRX10 gene. In the two homologous chromosomes, the genomic gene of IRX10L4 (Sequence 10 in the sequence listing) shows the following changes: In the Nipponbare rice genome, the nucleotide sequence... A nucleotide T was inserted between nucleotides 169 and 170 of sequence 10, i.e., a single nucleotide T was inserted between nucleotides 10 and 11 of the coding sequence of the IRX10L4 gene shown in sequence 9 of the sequence listing. This resulted in a frameshift mutation, causing the translation of the IRX10L4 protein to terminate prematurely after 3 amino acids, thus knocking out the IRX10L4 gene. In the genomes of two homologous chromosomes, the nucleotide sequence of the IRX10L5 gene in sequence 12 of the sequence listing underwent the following changes: In the genome of rice Nipponbare, a nucleotide A was inserted between nucleotides 257 and 258 of sequence 12 of the sequence listing. This resulted in a single nucleotide A inserted between nucleotides 10 and 11 of the coding sequence of the IRX10L5 gene shown in sequence 11 of the sequence listing. This resulted in a frameshift mutation, causing the translation of the IRX10L5 protein to terminate prematurely after 2 amino acids, thus knocking out the IRX10L5 gene.

[0150] In the IRX10 polygenic homozygous mutant Tm3, compared with wild-type rice Nipponbare, mutations were found in the genes IRX10L, IRX10L2, and IRX10L3 in the rice genome. On two homologous chromosomes, the genomic gene of IRX10L (nucleotide sequence 4 in the sequence listing) underwent the following changes: In the Nipponbare rice genome, a nucleotide C was inserted between nucleotides 1341 and 1342 of sequence 4 in the sequence listing, i.e., a single base C was inserted between nucleotides 145-146 of the IRX10L gene coding sequence shown in sequence 3 in the sequence listing, resulting in a frameshift mutation. Translation of the IRX10L protein terminated prematurely after 48 amino acids, thus knocking out the IRX10L gene. On two homologous chromosomes, the genomic gene of IRX10L2 (nucleotide sequence 6 in the sequence listing) underwent the following changes: In the genome of Nipponbare rice, the deletion of nucleotide 1081 in sequence 6 of the sequence listing, which corresponds to the deletion of nucleotide 140 in the coding sequence of the IRX10L2 gene shown in sequence 5 of the sequence listing, results in a frameshift mutation. The translation of the IRX10L2 protein terminates prematurely after 47 amino acids, thus knocking out the IRX10L2 gene. In the genome of two homologous chromosomes, the nucleotide sequence of the IRX10L3 gene in sequence 8 of the sequence listing has the following changes: In the genome of Nipponbare rice, a nucleotide T is inserted between nucleotides 460 and 461 in sequence 8 of the sequence listing, which corresponds to the insertion of a single nucleotide T between nucleotides 111-112 in the coding sequence of the IRX10L3 gene shown in sequence 7 of the sequence listing. This results in a frameshift mutation. The translation of the IRX10L3 protein terminates prematurely after 38 amino acids, thus knocking out the IRX10L3 gene.

[0151] IRX10 polygenic homozygous mutants Tm1, Tm2 and Tm3 were transplanted into a greenhouse for cultivation, and individual plants were harvested to obtain T1 generation seeds.

[0152] Example 2: Application of IRX10 protein in regulating crop growth

[0153] 2.1 Phenotypic observation of IRX10 gene-related mutants

[0154] T1 generation seeds of the IRX10 multi-gene homozygous mutants Tm1, Tm2, ​​and Tm3 obtained in Example 1, as well as wild-type Nipponbare, were sown in the field, with 24 plants per treatment. Phenotypic observation was conducted after three months of growth. The results are as follows: Figure 2As shown in Figure A, compared to the wild type, the plant height of the IRX10 mutant materials was significantly shorter: the plant height of the IRX10 polygenic homozygous mutant Tm1 was 69.3±1.0 cm, the plant height of the IRX10 polygenic homozygous mutant Tm2 was 38.2±0.6 cm, the plant height of the IRX10 polygenic homozygous mutant Tm3 was 30.6±1.0 cm, and the plant height of the wild-type Nipponbare (WT) was 105.8±0.9 cm. This indicates that the IRX10, IRX10L, IRX10L2, IRX10L3, IRX10L4, and IRX10L5 proteins and their encoding genes can regulate rice plant height. Knocking out the IRX10, IRX10L, IRX10L2, IRX10L3, IRX10L4, and IRX10L5 genes in rice resulted in shorter rice plant height.

[0155] 2.2 Detection of xylose content in IRX10 gene-related mutants and wild-type plants

[0156] IRX10 gene-related mutant and wild-type plants (japonica rice variety "Nipponbare") grown for 3 months were collected, with at least 10 main tillers from each material, and the xylose content in the cell walls was measured. The specific procedures are as follows:

[0157] 2.2.1 Preparation of ethanol-insoluble substances

[0158] Select the second internode below the panicle of rice plants that have grown for 3 months, dry them until their weight no longer changes, grind them into powder using a tissue homogenizer, and pass them through a 200-mesh sieve to obtain a uniform powder. Weigh 100 mg of the powder into a 10 mL centrifuge tube, and obtain the ethanol-insoluble material (AIR) of plant cell walls through the following steps: wash with 70% ethanol solution until the supernatant is colorless, wash with chloroform:methanol (1:1, v / v) solution until the supernatant is colorless, add 1 mL of acetone, and dry in an oven. Add 0.1 M sodium acetate solution (pH 5.0) and amylase (purchased from Megazyme) and amylopectin (purchased from Megazyme) to the AIR powder, and react in a shaker at 37°C for more than 24 hours to remove starch. Wash twice with distilled water, resuspend in 1 mL of acetone, and dry in an oven. Obtain the starch-free AIR sample.

[0159] 2.2.2 Monosaccharide content detection

[0160] Approximately 2 mg of starch-removed AIR powder was weighed, with five replicates for each sample. 40 μg of inositol was added to each replicate as an internal standard. The mixture was acid-hydrolyzed with 2 M trifluoroacetic acid and heated at 121 °C for 90 minutes to extract monosaccharide components. The extract was then reduced with sodium borohydride solution, neutralized with glacial acetic acid, washed with acetic acid / methanol (1:9, v / v) and methanol solutions, and dried. Acetic anhydride and pyridine were added, and the mixture was heated at 121 °C for 20 minutes to initiate a derivatization reaction. After drying, the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and distilled water. The upper ethyl acetate phase was collected, and the cell wall monosaccharides were separated and their content determined using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

[0161] See results Figure 2 In the data, B and WT represent wild-type plants, containing 238.0 ± 6.5 μg xylose per mg of ethanol-insoluble cell wall; in mutant bc18, the content is 187.2 ± 2.0 μg xylose per mg of ethanol-insoluble cell wall; in mutant Tm1, it is 117.1 ± 4.5 μg xylose per mg of ethanol-insoluble cell wall; in mutant Tm2, ​​it is 151.5 ± 6.3 μg xylose per mg of ethanol-insoluble cell wall; and in mutant Tm3, it is 64.9 ± 3.0 μg xylose per mg of ethanol-insoluble cell wall. These results demonstrate that, compared to wild-type plants, the xylose content in the cell walls of IRX10 gene-related mutant materials is significantly reduced.

[0162] Example 3: Application of IRX10 protein in regulating plant vascular development

[0163] 3.1 Catheter observation of IRX10 gene-related mutants

[0164] 3.1.1 Observation of duct shape

[0165] The second internode below the spike of IRX10 gene-related mutant and wild-type Nipponbare plants were taken after 3 months of growth. The stems were transversely cut with a Gillette blade, and the xylem vessels were observed under a microscope.

[0166] The results are as follows Figure 3 As shown in Figures A, B, and C, the vascular bundle area of ​​the wild-type Nipponbare plant is 1211.8 ± 27.4 μm. 2 The duct area of ​​mutant bc18 is 1058.5 ± 15.8 μm. 2 The duct area of ​​mutant Tm1 is 716.6 ± 14.3 μm. 2 The duct area of ​​mutant Tm2 is 668.2 ± 15.5 μm. 2 The duct area of ​​mutant Tm3 is 486.5 ± 11.9 μm. 2 The results showed that the duct area in both single and multiple mutants of IRX10 was significantly smaller, and its shape changed from approximately circular to irregular shapes such as ellipse or polygon.

[0167] 3.1.2 Observation of duct cell wall thickness

[0168] Further, transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the cross-section of the stems of the above materials. The stems were longitudinally cut into 2 mm sections and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde. The sections were then embedded in aqueous resin and prepared into 90 nm sections using an ultramicrotome. After staining with 2% uranium acetate, the thickness of the vascular bundle cell walls was observed using transmission electron microscopy.

[0169] The results are as follows Figure 3 As shown in Figures D and E, the duct cell wall thickness of wild-type Nipponbare was 0.57±0.13 μm, the duct cell wall thickness of mutant bc18 was 0.27±0.06 μm, the duct cell wall thickness of mutant Tm1 was 0.16±0.06 μm, the duct cell wall thickness of mutant Tm2 was 0.25±0.08 μm, and the duct cell wall thickness of mutant Tm3 was 0.16±0.05 μm. The results indicate that the duct cell wall thickness of both single-mutant and multi-mutant mutants of IRX10 was significantly reduced.

[0170] 3.2 Observation of duct pits in IRX10 gene-related mutants

[0171] 3.2.1 Observation of vessel pit morphology

[0172] To further analyze the differences in the fine structure of the vessels in the mutants, a 1 cm length of the above-mentioned stem material was taken, immersed in a 10% peracetic acid solution, and reacted at 80°C for more than 12 hours. The vessel cells were then separated by stereomicroscopy, stained with DirectRed 23 dye, and observed by fluorescence microscopy.

[0173] The results are as follows Figure 4 As shown, the vessel pits of the wild-type Nipponbare plant are uniform in size, with a pit area of ​​0.84 ± 0.02 μm. 2 The pit area of ​​the vessels in mutant bc18 is 2.46 ± 0.04 μm. 2 The pit area of ​​the vessels in mutant Tm1 is 3.65 ± 0.06 μm. 2 The vessel pit area of ​​mutant Tm2 is 3.28 ± 0.06 μm. 2 The vessel pit area of ​​mutant Tm3 is 4.47 ± 0.13 μm. 2 The results showed that the duct pit area of ​​the single and multiple mutants of IRX10 showed an increasing trend to varying degrees, and two pits fused together appeared.

[0174] 3.2.2 Distribution of xylan in the vessels

[0175] The ductal cells were isolated according to the method in 3.2.1, and immunolabeled with xylan-specific antibody LM10 diluted at a ratio of 1:50 for 2 hours. Then, they were incubated with horseradish enzyme-labeled goat anti-rat for 2 hours. Finally, they were observed using a laser scanning confocal microscope.

[0176] The results are as follows Figure 5 As shown, in wild-type Nipponbare, xylan signals are mainly deposited at both ends of vessel pits, while in the bc18 mutant, xylan signals are significantly reduced; in the Tm1 mutant, xylan signals are almost absent. These results indicate that the decreased xylan content in both single and multiple mutants of IRX10 leads to the loss of specificity in the xylan nanolattice structure at both ends of vessel pits.

[0177] 3.3 Determination of ductal function in IRX10 gene-related mutants

[0178] To clarify the impact of differences in duct pit shape and structure, we further analyzed the duct function of IRX10 gene-related mutants.

[0179] 3.3.1 Rhodamine Transport Experiment

[0180] Wild-type Nipponbare, bc18, and Tm1 mutants were cultured in medium for two weeks until the four-leaf stage. They were then transferred to a solution containing 0.5 mM Rhodamine B and incubated for 3 hours. The base 2 cm of the second leaf was powdered and extracted with ethanol. The extract was analyzed using a microplate reader.

[0181] The results are shown in Figure 6. The vascular transport capacity of wild-type Nipponbare was 94.55 ± 0.47 nmol.g -1 The ductal transport capacity of the bc18 mutant is 55.82 ± 9.64 nmol.g -1 The ductal transport capacity of the Tm1 mutant was 5.14 ± 0.27 nmol.g -1 The results showed that the absence of xylan nanolattice structure around vessel pits in IRX10 gene-related mutants affects the water transport capacity of vessels.

[0182] 3.3.2 Determination of transpiration potential

[0183] Wild-type Nipponbare and IRX10-related mutants were cultured in the field for 3 months. Transpiration potential of leaves was measured every two hours from 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM using a photosynthesis meter. The results are shown in Figure 7. The transpiration potential of leaves fluctuated with time, reaching its highest at 11:30 AM. During this time period, the transpiration potential of wild-type Nipponbare leaves was 9.65 ± 0.87 mmol·m⁻¹. -2 ·s -1The leaf transpiration potential of the bc18 mutant was 7.10 ± 0.40 mmol·m⁻². -2 ·s -1 The leaf transpiration potential of the Tm1 mutant was 5.16 ± 0.70 mmol·m⁻¹. -2 ·s -1 The leaf transpiration potential of the Tm2 mutant was 4.75 ± 0.85 mmol·m⁻². -2 ·s -1 The leaf transpiration potential of the Tm3 mutant was 3.34 ± 0.59 mmol·m⁻¹. -2 ·s -1 The results showed that the absence of xylan nanolattice structure around the pits of the vessels in the IRX10 gene-related mutant affected the transpiration capacity of the plant leaves, indicating that the water transport capacity of the vessels had changed.
