[0002] Soil salinization refers to the process in which salt in the bottom soil or groundwater rises to the surface with capillary water, and after the water evaporates, the salt accumulates in the surface soil. Soil salinization has a serious impact on agricultural production. It will cause the soil quality to decline, affect the growth of crops, and even lead to reduced crop yields or failure to grow. Plant salt-alkali resistance refers to the ability of plants to adapt to and resist high salt and high alkalinity in the soil. Under alkaline stress, high pH values ​​will cause changes in osmotic potential in plants, imbalance in ion concentration, metabolic disorders in plants, and severe damage to cell membranes. These adverse factors will inhibit the growth and development of plants, and even directly lead to plant death.

[0003] Ethylene is one of the most important plant hormones in nature and the simplest olefin gas plant hormone. On the one hand, it can affect the growth and development of plants, including seed germination, leaf senescence, fruit ripening, etc. On the other hand, it can regulate the response of plants to various biological and abiotic stresses, including pathogen invasion, drought stress, cold stress, and salinity stress. The biosynthesis of ethylene follows the 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC)-dependent pathway, in which ACC synthase (ACS) catalyzes the formation of ACC from S-adenosylmethionine, which is the rate-limiting step. ACS are encoded by a multi-gene family and are divided into three categories based on the characteristics of the C-terminal sequence: the first type of ACS protein has a longer C-terminus and has two kinase phosphorylation sites, including three mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation sites and one calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) phosphorylation site; the second type of ACS protein has a shorter C-terminus than the first type and has only one CDPK phosphorylation site; the third type of ACS protein has the shortest C-terminus and has no identifiable phosphorylation site. There are 8 functional ACS proteins in the genome of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.

MES is the abbreviation of fatty acid methyl ester sulfonate, and 6-BA is the abbreviation of 6-Benzylaminopurine. Before infecting the Arabidopsis inflorescence, add SilwetL-77 (50 mL / L). SilwetL-77 is a highly efficient silicone surfactant that can greatly reduce the surface tension of water. The inflorescence part of Arabidopsis is fully contacted with the bacterial solution. After the infection is completed, it is first cultured in the dark for 24 hours, and then cultured under natural light conditions until the end of the growth cycle. After harvesting the T0 generation seeds, they are screened with hygromycin screening medium and combined with ACS8-F , ACS8-R and ACS11-F , ACS11-R Primers were used for genome PCR identification and sequencing was used to detect whether the editing site was edited and the editing form, and the edited T1 generation seeds were obtained. The edited plants with single peak homozygous editing sites were cultured and screened in soil. After maturity, T2 generation seeds were collected and spread on antibiotic-free 1 / 2 MS medium. After growing for 8 days under natural light conditions, seedlings were transplanted. After two weeks of soil culture, the genome was extracted and used Cas9-F and Cas9-R Primers were used for genomic PCR to identify whether the Cas 9 protein was isolated, and then the strains with isolated Cas 9 protein were harvested to obtain homozygous mutants for subsequent phenotypic observation and determination of various related indicators.

[0041] Finally got the first category of knockout ACS and the second category ACS Functional genes, only the third category is retained ACS Functional gene acs2 / acs4 / acs5 / acs6 / acs8 / acs9 / acs11 Seven homozygous strains, among which ACS8 / ACS11 There are -1 and +1 mutations at the target site (sgRNA), such as Figure 3 As shown, leading to ACS8 Translation terminated prematurely at position 78 (470 amino acids in total), ACS11 Translation terminates prematurely at position 121 (461 amino acids in total). This mutation has no adverse effect on the normal growth and development of Arabidopsis. Gene-edited homozygous lines have -1 and -1 mutations at the target site, resulting in ACS8 and ACS11 The translation was terminated prematurely.

After two days of dark treatment, they were placed in an Arabidopsis culture box under the conditions of 20°C to 22°C, long daylight (16 h light, 8 h dark), relative humidity of 60% to 70%, and light intensity of 90 μmol m -2 s -1 ~110 μmolm -2 s -1 The germination rate was counted every 12 hours. Microsoft Excel was used to count the germination rates of different materials and calculate their mean values ​​and standard errors. like Figure 4 The results showed that under normal growth conditions, there was no significant difference in the germination rate between wild type (WT) seeds and seeds containing gene mutants, while under saline-alkali stress conditions, the germination rate of this type of gene mutant seeds was faster than that of wild type seeds, indicating that the germination of Arabidopsis seeds containing gene mutants can tolerate saline-alkali stress.

[0044] Experimental Example 2: Salt-alkali stress survival rate experiment.

[0045] Arabidopsis seeds containing gene mutants and wild-type Arabidopsis seeds were sterilized with 1% (v / v) NaClO for 2-3 min, washed 6-8 times with sterile distilled water, and sown on normal 1 / 2 MS medium and 1 / 2 MS medium containing 10 mM NaHCO3. After two days of dark treatment, they were placed in an Arabidopsis incubator under the conditions of 20°C-22°C, long daylight (16 h light, 8 h dark), relative humidity of 60%-70%, and light intensity of 90-110 μmol m -2 s -1 After 14 days of growth, the survival rates of WT plants and plants containing gene mutants were counted. Figure 5 As shown; The results show that: Under normal culture conditions, there was no significant difference in the survival rate between WT plants and plants containing gene mutants. Under saline-alkali stress, the survival rate of this type of gene mutant plants was significantly higher than that of WT plants, showing obvious salt-alkali resistance.

[0046] Experimental Example 3: Root growth experiment under salt-alkali stress.

[0047] Arabidopsis seeds containing gene mutants and wild-type Arabidopsis seeds were sterilized with 1% (v / v) NaClO for 2–3 min, washed 6–8 times with sterile distilled water, and spread on 1 / 2 MS medium. After two days of dark treatment, the seeds were placed in an Arabidopsis incubator under the conditions of 20–22°C, long daylight (16 h light, 8 h dark), relative humidity of 60%–70%, and light intensity of 90–110 μmol m -2 s -1 After growing for 6 days, they were transferred to medium containing 0 and 3 mM NaHCO3, respectively, and the root length was counted every 1 day; Figure 6 The results showed that under normal culture conditions, there was no significant difference in root length between WT plants and plants containing gene mutants. However, under saline-alkali stress, the root length growth of WT plants was inhibited, while the root length growth of plants containing this type of gene mutants was almost not inhibited, and was significantly higher than WT, showing obvious salt-alkali resistance.
