Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of plant molecular biology, specifically to a method for regulating silique length in rapeseed. BnaCDPK10 Genes and their applications. Background Technology

[0002] Plant growth and development are primarily regulated by genetic and environmental changes. Plant cell signal transduction refers to the process by which cells sense and transduce various environmental stimuli, regulate gene expression, and elicit corresponding physiological and biochemical responses. Numerous studies have shown that Ca²⁺ acts as a second messenger in numerous plant stimulus responses. Almost all different extracellular stimulus signals, such as light, touch, gravity, plant hormones, and pathogens, can cause a transient and significant increase in intracellular free calcium ion concentration [Ca²⁺], or changes in its gradient and regional distribution within the cell. Calcium concentration changes can respond to different extracellular stimuli, ultimately leading to specific physiological effects on specific stimuli (J. Kudla, O. Batistič, K. Hashimoto. Calciumsignals: the lead currency of plant information processing. Plant Cell, 2010, 22:541−563). When plants are stimulated by different factors, the concentration of calcium ions in the cells changes first. This change in calcium ion concentration is called calcium signaling. Decoding calcium ion signals depends on calcium sensors. In plants, there are four main types of calcium sensors: calmodulin (CaM), CaM-like protein (CML), calcineurin-like protein (CBL), and CDPKs (calcium-dependent protein kinases) (DeFalco, TA, Bender, KW and Snedden, WABreaking the code: Ca²⁺ sensors in plant signalling. Biochem J, 2010, 425:27−40). These sensors directly bind to or phosphorylate target proteins to activate them, thereby transducing signals. Unlike other calcium sensors, CDPKs not only have an EF-hand domain that binds to calcium ions but also a kinase domain.When the concentration of calcium ions in the body is low, the self-inhibition linker domain of calcium-dependent protein kinase binds to the kinase domain to inhibit its own activity. When the concentration of calcium ions increases, calcium ions bind to the EF motif, changing the conformation and activating the kinase (V. Chandran, EJStollar, K. Lindorff-Larsen, JF Harper, WJ Chazin, CM Dobson, BFLuisi, J. Christodoulou. Structure of the regulatory apparatus of acalcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK): a novel mode of calmodulin-target recognition. J Mol Biol, 2006, 357:400−410).

[0003] rape( Brassica napus Rapeseed (L.) is one of the most important oilseed crops in the world and the largest oilseed crop in my country (Wang Hanzhong. Development Strategy of Rapeseed Industry Guided by New Demands. Chinese Journal of Oil Crops, 2018, 40(5):613−617). Increasing yield is one of the main breeding goals of rapeseed, and the length of rapeseed siliques is a key factor affecting yield. Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) are the main signal transduction factors, participating in the regulation of plant stress resistance and plant growth, but there are few reports on CDPKs in rapeseed, and their regulatory mechanism in rapeseed silique development is still unclear. Therefore, exploring the regulation of rapeseed silique development by CDPKs in response to changes in calcium ions, and studying their downstream target proteins and pathways, is not only of great significance for revealing the molecular mechanism of rapeseed silique development, but also provides new ideas for high-yield breeding of rapeseed. Summary of the Invention

[0028] The plant materials, vectors, and strains used in the following experimental examples are detailed below:

[0029] DL704, a large-grained Brassica napus-type rapeseed, was created by our research team through distant hybridization in the previous stage. Zhongshuang 11 (ZS11) is a Brassica napus-type rapeseed variety bred by the Oil Crops Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Using ZS11 as the recurrent parent and DL704 as the recipient parent, a BC4F2 population was constructed. DL704, ZS11, and BC4F2 populations were all planted at the experimental base of the Rapeseed Engineering Technology Research Center in Beibei District, Chongqing.

[0036] Example 1: Rapeseed genes involved in regulating silique development BnaCDPK10 Filtering

[0037] To identify the calcium-dependent protein kinase gene involved in rapeseed silique development, this invention conducted candidate gene screening and analysis. The specific experimental procedure is as follows:

[0038] 1. Construction of extreme mixing pools and transcriptome sequencing

[0039] During the rapeseed flowering period, different colored yarns were used to mark the flowering date on the main inflorescence. Ovules were collected at day 0, 14 days, and 28 days after flowering. Immediately after collection, the ovaries were placed in liquid nitrogen and then stored at -80°C. After rapeseed seed harvest, 50 siliques from the main inflorescence of each plant were collected, naturally dried, and threshed to determine the thousand-seed weight (TSW, g). Based on the phenotypic results, 5 plants with extremely high and 6 plants with extremely low thousand-seed weights were selected from the BC4F2 population to construct mixed pools with extremely high and extremely low thousand-seed weights, respectively. These pools were sent to Biomarker for transcriptome sequencing to analyze differentially expressed genes.

[0040] 2. Candidate gene screening

[0041] Screening of differentially expressed genes revealed six genes with differential expression. BnaCDPKs Based on these 6 genes, we can analyze whether there is... BnaCDPK The (rapeseed calcium-dependent protein kinase) gene is affected by calcium ions, thus influencing silique development in rapeseed. Seven days after pollination, ZS11 siliques were treated with 10 mmol / L Ca²⁺, and the effects were measured. BnaCDPKs Changes in gene expression levels were observed within 1–3 hours after Ca²⁺ induction. BnaCDPK10 Expression levels changed more significantly, and there were very significant changes after 12 hours of induction. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 As shown, it will therefore respond significantly to fluctuations in calcium ion concentration.

[0042] Further analysis of the transcriptional expression levels of this gene at different stages of rapeseed silique development and in other parts revealed... BnaCDPK10 It is also expressed at high levels in seeds and siliques at different developmental stages, see [reference]. Figure 2 As shown, therefore BnaCDPK10 Functional identification was performed on a calcium-dependent protein kinase gene involved in the development of rapeseed siliques.

[0133] 3. Positive vaccine detection

[0134] T0 generation seeds were harvested, and seeds that showed red light under green fluorescent excitation light were selected and sown separately. These T0 generation red seeds were directly sown in flowerpots and cultured in a light incubator. At the seedling stage, DNA was extracted from leaves for PCR identification. The primers used for PCR identification were QW586F and BnaCDPK10-R. The PCR reaction system and identification procedure were the same as those used for E. coli detection. The identification results are as follows: Figure 7 As shown in the figure, lanes 1-16 represent the amplification and identification results of different seedlings. It can be seen that positive plants all have obvious bands at around 1700 bp. After the siliques of the positive plants mature, seeds are harvested for continuous propagation and selection.

[0135] Leaves of WT (wild Arabidopsis thaliana) and OE-BnaCDPK10 positive plants were collected, RNA was extracted, and qRT-PCR was performed to analyze the expression of the target gene in each line.

Siliques were harvested after maturity, and their length was measured. The morphological comparison and quantitative results of silique length between OE-BnaCDPK10 and WT plants are shown below. Figure 9 , 10 As shown, the silique length of OE-BnaCDPK10 is significantly longer than that of WT. The average silique length of WT is 11.05 cm, while that of OE-BnaCDPK10 is 12.30 cm. The silique length of OE-BnaCDPK10 is 11.29% longer than that of WT.

[0151] At the same time, the number of fruits per corner was examined, and the statistical results are as follows: Figure 11 As shown, the number of fruits per pod in WT was 38.88, while the number of fruits per pod in OE-BnaCDPK10 was 44.91, representing a 15.52% increase in the number of fruits per pod compared to WT. This indicates overexpression. BnaCDPK10 After gene modification, not only did the length of the siliques in the plant increase, but the number of seeds per silique also increased, indicating that rapeseed...
