Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of genetic engineering, and particularly to the application of glycosyl hydrolase BnaGH in regulating the thousand-grain weight. Background Art

[0002] The thousand-grain weight is one of the key limiting factors for improving the yield per unit area of rapeseed. Its genetic basis is complex, significantly affected by the environment, with low heritability and great difficulty in breeding improvement. Existing studies have shown that the thousand-grain weight is co-regulated by multiple signaling pathways, including ubiquitination modification, hormone signaling, cell cycle regulation, and transcriptional regulation, etc. In model crops such as rice and wheat, a number of key genes have been cloned, such as GW2, DEP1, and OsSPL13 in rice, revealing the core role of cell proliferation and seed swelling in the formation of grain weight. In contrast, rapeseed, as an allopolyploid crop, has a highly redundant genome and subgenome differentiation, and the grain weight regulation mechanism is more complex. At present, more than 100 QTLs related to the thousand-grain weight have been mapped in rapeseed, but the number of cloned genes is limited, only covering pathways such as hormone signaling, cell division, and developmental regulation, such as BnARF18, BnaCYP78A9, and BnDA1, etc.

[0003] β-glucosidases in plants mainly belong to the GH1, GH3, GH5, and GH16 glycoside hydrolase families, among which the members of the GH1 family are the most abundant, and 48, 40, and 26 genes have been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana, rice, and maize, respectively. The proteins of this family usually contain conserved functional domains (such as RFSIWSRIFP and TF / LNEP), and their core catalytic module releases glucose by hydrolyzing β-1,4-glycosidic bonds, participating in processes such as plant hormone activation, cell wall remodeling, and stress response. At present, the functions of some GH1 members have been analyzed: AtBGLU45 / 46 in Arabidopsis thaliana regulates the formation of the secondary cell wall by degrading lignin monomer glycosides; AtBGLU26 (PEN2) specifically cleaves glucosinolates (I3G / 4MI3G) to mediate the synthesis of antibacterial metabolites to resist pathogen invasion; while AtBG1 regulates the drought response of plants by activating the abscisic acid precursor (ABA-GE). Nevertheless, the in vivo substrates and functions of most GH1 genes have not been elucidated, especially the mechanism of their role in key agronomic traits such as seed development remains to be studied urgently.

[0004] In addition, phylogenetic analysis showed that Arabidopsis BGLU27 is most closely related to the key enzyme BGLU26 (PEN2) in glucosinolate metabolism, but their expression patterns and functions are significantly differentiated - BGLU26 is induced by pathogens, while BGLU27 is specifically highly expressed in seeds. This indicates that the regulatory role of GH genes in plants has no obvious pattern. Current research on the functions of GH genes mainly focuses on the dynamic regulation of cell walls. For example, maize ZmBGLU17 affects endosperm development through lignin metabolism, while there is no report on the regulation of 1000-grain weight by BnaGH. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide the application of glycosyl hydrolase BnaGH in regulating 1000-grain weight to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art.

The gene knockout mutants can cause a significant increase in the 1000-grain weight of rapeseed. Using this gene can increase the 1000-grain weight of rapeseed and obtain high-yield rapeseed germplasm. The present invention provides a theoretical basis for further in-depth study of the physiological mechanism of rapeseed yield, and also provides genetic resources and technical support for the creation and cultivation of high-yield rapeseed germplasm, and has very important application prospects in the breeding and improvement of high-yield rapeseed varieties.

[0040] Example 1 Expression Pattern of BnaGH Gene

[0041] Studies have shown that in the Westar variety genome, the BnaGH gene is distributed on chromosomes A09, C08, and C02 in single-copy form, corresponding to gene numbers BnaA09.GH (BnaA09T0530800WE), BnaC08.GH (BnaC08G0360700WE), and BnaC02.GH (BnaC02T0506300WE). In the Shuang 11 rapeseed variety, the BnaGH gene is scattered on six chromosomes, namely A09, C08, A04, A07, C04, and C03. To more comprehensively analyze the expression pattern of the BnaGH gene, in this example, Shuang 11 rapeseed was used as the research object. During the period from 14 days after pollination (14 DAP) to 64 days after pollination (64 DAP) of seed development, developing seeds were collected once every day, with three biological replicates set at each time point. Total RNA was extracted, libraries were constructed, and clean reads were aligned to the ZS11 reference genome using HISAT2. StringTie was used to quantify gene expression (TPM); finally, the time-series expression of BnaA09.GH and BnaC08.GH was visualized as a line graph based on the TPM matrix to reveal the expression pattern of the target gene during the entire seed development process. The results are as Figure 1As shown, the results show that BnaA09.GH and BnaC08.GH are highly expressed in developing seeds, while the expression level of BnaC02.GH remains low.

[0042] Based on the above analysis results of the expression patterns of BnaGH genes, the present invention focuses on two genes, BnaA09.GH and BnaC08.GH, and will further study their correlation with rapeseed yield. The nucleotide sequences of the selected BnaA09.GH and BnaC08.GH are shown as SEQ ID NO.1 (1899bp) and SEQ ID NO.2 (1983bp) respectively, and the encoded protein sequences are shown as SEQ ID NO.3 (632aa) and SEQ ID NO.4 (661aa) respectively.

[0068] (5) Transform Escherichia coli DH5α: Take 5 μL of the transformed Escherichia coli competent cells and transfer the recombinant vector into Escherichia coli. Screen for positive clones on the Kan plate, and identify and sequence them by PCR. The vector with correct sequencing is the BnaGH-CRISPR vector.

[0069] (6) Introduce the BnaGH-CRISPR vector with correct sequencing into the Agrobacterium strain GV3101, and select positive monoclonal clones for storage in an -80°C refrigerator. The introduction method is as follows:

[0070] a. Wash the electroporation cuvette: First wash it with pure water, then with ultrapure water, pour out the water, then wash it with absolute ethanol (pipette with a 1 ml pipette tip), pour out the absolute ethanol, and place it in the laminar flow hood to dry.

[0071] b. Take 50 μL of Agrobacterium competent cells GV3101.

[0072] c. Take 1 μL of the correctly constructed recombinant plasmid and add it to 50 μL of the competent cells, gently pipette and mix well to avoid generating bubbles.

[0073] d. Place the washed and dried electroporation cuvette on ice for pre-cooling, and then pipette the above mixture along the wall of the cuvette.

[0074] e. Set the electroporator to 1800 V.

[0075] f. Take the electroporation cuvette out of the ice and wipe the outer wall of the cuvette with absorbent paper.

[0076] g. Put the electroporation cuvette into the instrument and press the "push" key twice continuously. If you hear a "beep" sound after a few seconds, it is successful.

[0077] h. After successful electroporation, add 400 μL of antibiotic-free LB to the electroporation cuvette, pipette a few times, and transfer it to a sterile centrifuge tube.

[0081] 2. Genetic transformation experiment

[0082] (1) Genetic transformation of rapeseed

[0083] Using Brassica napus Westar as the recipient plant, the positive Agrobacterium (containing the BnaGH-CRISPR vector) constructed in the above process was transferred into the recipient plant by the Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation method. The specific operation procedure can be found in the reference (Dai C, Li Y, Li L, et al. An efficient Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method using hypocotyl as explants for Brassica napus[J].

[0084] (2) Identification of CRISPR-transformed single plants

[0085] The obtained rapeseed CRISPR-transformed single plants were sequenced to screen for rapeseed mutants. First, the Cas9 protein was identified using the primer pair Cas9-570-F / Cas9-570-R, and then the positive single plants identified by the Cas9 protein were subjected to specific amplification and sequencing identification of the target gene using the primer pairs GH(A09 / C08)-CRISPR-F1 / GH(A09 / C08)-CRISPR-R1, GH(A09 / C08)-CRISPR-F2 / GH(A09 / C08)-CRISPR-R2.

[0104] Example 3 Phenotypic Analysis of Wild-Type and Mutant Materials

[0105] The wild-type rapeseed (WT) and rapeseed BnaGH mutant materials (gh-1 and gh-2) were planted until harvest. Using the SC-G type automatic seed analyzer, the 1000-seed weight analysis of the rapeseed seeds harvested at maturity was carried out to obtain the 1000-seed weight data of the wild-type and mutant materials. The measuring instrument was provided by the National Rapeseed Engineering and Technology Research Center of Huazhong Agricultural University.

[0106] The results of the 1000-seed weight analysis are as Figure 3 shown. The 1000-seed weight of the wild-type rapeseed (WT) was 3.48 ± 0.50 g, and the 1000-seed weights of the mutant materials gh-1 and gh-2 were 4.25 ± 0.98 g and 4.14 ± 0.50 g, respectively. The results of statistical analysis showed that the 1000-seed weights of the two mutant materials were significantly higher than that of the wild-type. It is indicated that the two homologous genes of BnaGH (BnaA09.GH and BnaC08.GH) have the function of regulating the 1000-seed weight of rapeseed, providing a theoretical support for further in-depth study of the action mechanism of rapeseed yield, and also laying a foundation for the creation and cultivation of high-yield rapeseed varieties.
