Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of plant gene therapy, and particularly relates to the use of citrus CsRPS2 gene in citrus canker disease. Background Art

[0002] Citrus canker disease caused by Xanthomonas citrisubsp. citri (Xcc) severely restricts the development of the citrus industry. The citrus canker pathogen mainly infects organs such as the leaves, shoots, and fruits of host plants, with seedlings and young trees being the most severely affected. Infected plants show symptoms such as defoliation, withered shoots, weakened tree vigor, and fruit drop, resulting in a significant decline in fruit yield and quality. There are significant differences in the resistance of different citrus varieties to canker disease, with sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) being the most susceptible, followed by sour orange (Citrus aurantium) and pomelo (Citrus maxima). The widespread spread and severe damage of citrus canker disease have become one of the key factors restricting the development of the citrus industry.

[0003] Currently, the prevention and control of citrus canker disease mainly adopt a comprehensive prevention and control strategy with chemical control as the main method and biological control as the auxiliary method. However, chemical control methods pose a risk of environmental pollution and require a large amount of manpower and material resources; while biological control faces problems such as unstable effects and high costs. Therefore, breeding new disease-resistant varieties is considered to be the fundamental way to reduce the losses caused by canker disease. Traditional cross-breeding methods are difficult to meet the production needs due to their long cycle and low efficiency. With the rapid development of molecular biology technology, researchers have begun to conduct in-depth studies on the pathogenic mechanism of pathogens and the disease-resistant defense response of plants from the perspective of disease-resistant genetic engineering. In recent years, significant progress has been made in the research on the resistance of citrus to canker disease by gene engineering technology. For example, Chen Shanchun et al. (1996) successfully obtained Jincheng orange, Xinhui orange, and navel orange strains resistant to canker disease by transferring the antibacterial peptide D gene of Antheraea pernyi; Mendes et al. (2010) and Yang et al. (2011) found that after transferring exogenous genes NLS, Chit42, Xa21, and PthA into Bingtang orange, Ponkan, and sweet orange, the resistance to canker disease can be significantly improved; CsBZIP40 is a key transcription factor responsive to the infection of citrus canker pathogen and may regulate the resistance of citrus varieties through the salicylic acid (SA) pathway; the CsLOB1 gene, as the target protein of the canker disease effector PthA, enhances the sensitivity of citrus to canker disease; targeted knockout of the CsLOB1 promoter using the CRISPR / Cas9 technology can significantly improve the resistance of citrus to canker disease.

[0004] The products encoded by plant resistance genes (R genes) play a central role in directly or indirectly recognizing pathogen effector proteins or triggering downstream signal transduction in the plant innate immune system. The R protein superfamily is mainly classified by the presence or absence of a few structural motifs or domains, such as nucleotide binding site (NBS), leucine-rich repeat (LRR), Toll / interleukin-1 receptor (TIR), coiled-coil (CC), and transmembrane domain. The plant NBS-LRR protein family encodes nucleotide binding (NBS) and C-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains. In Arabidopsis thaliana, multiple NBS-LRR genes have been identified as playing a role in disease resistance, including RPM1, RPS1, RPS2, RPS4, and RPS5. The tomato NBS-LRR proteins Mi-1.1 and Mi-1.2 have been shown to have dual regulatory roles in regulating host cell death; overexpression of VaRGA1 in Nicotiana benthamiana enhanced resistance to Phytophthora parasitica by activating salicylic acid (SA) signaling and the phenylpropanoid pathway; the cotton NBS-LRR-like protein GbaNA increased the resistance of plants to Verticillium wilt caused by Verticillium dahliae by activating reactive oxygen species production and ethylene signal transduction; overexpression of the rice NBS-LRR disease resistance gene OsBIHD1 led to enhanced expression of ethylene synthesis genes, thus participating in ethylene-mediated immunity; the wheat NBS-LRR protein TaRCR1 plays an important role in the defense response of plants to the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Rhizoctonia cerealis by regulating the scavenging and production of reactive oxygen species. Although the regulation of NBS-LRR proteins has been partially applied in plant disease resistance, there is no relevant research in the field of citrus canker.

[0005] In view of this, the present application is specifically proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0064] IV: Overexpression of CsRPS2

[0065] 1. Agrobacterium infection

[0066] Take 500 μL of the Agrobacterium bacterial solution containing the pLGNe-CsRPS2 plasmid and add it to 50 mL of liquid LB medium (containing kanamycin), and culture it at 28°C and 200 r / min until OD 600 = 0.5; Activate the bacterial solution of the canker pathogen until OD 600=0.5, mixed with Agrobacterium bacterial solution in equal proportions, centrifuged to obtain bacterial cells, and diluted with sterile water to OD 600 =0.5, inoculated the leaves of Wanjin orange by needle prick method, and cultured in an incubator at 28℃.

[0067] 2. qRT-PCR Analysis of Overexpressed Material

[0068] Total RNA (Adlai, CAT No: RN09) was extracted from transgenic materials, and cDNA was synthesized using the reverse transcription kit PrimeScriptRT Master Mix (TaKaRa, CAT No: RR036A). The expression of the target gene was detected by qRT-PCR. The detection primers were RT-CsRPS2-F (SEQ ID No. 6) and RT-CsRPS2-R (SEQ ID No. 7). -△△Ct The relative expression of CsRPS2 gene in transgenic materials was calculated by defining the water-treated sample as the reference factor, i.e., its CsRPS2 expression level was 1, and then calculating the multiple of the gene expression in the transgenic material relative to the reference factor 2 -△△Ct , which is the relative expression level. The results showed that the CsRPS2 gene was expressed at a higher level in transgenic materials than in wild-type plants (up to 4.7 times that of the control). Figure 3 .

[0069] qRT-PCR reaction conditions: 95°C, 3 min, 94°C, 10 s; 56°C, 10 s, 72°C, 10 s, 40 cycles; 72°C, 10 min.

[0074] 5: Evaluation of canker resistance of CsRPS2 overexpressing materials.

[0075] On the 10th day after inoculation with the mixture of Agrobacterium tumefaciens carrying pLGNe-CsRPS2 and Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri, the symptoms of citrus canker were observed and photographed, and the lesion size was statistically analyzed using Image J V1.47. The disease severity was divided into grades 0 - 7 according to the lesion area. Let R represent the lesion area. Grade 0 (R ≤ 0.25 mm 2 ), Grade 1 (0.25 mm 2 < R ≤ 0.5 mm 2 ), Grade 2 (0.5 mm 2 < R ≤ 0.75 mm 2 ), Grade 3 (0.75 mm 2 < R ≤ 1 mm 2 ), Grade 4 (1.0 mm 2 < R ≤ 1.25 mm 2 ), Grade 5 (1.25 mm 2 < R ≤ 1.5 mm 2 ), Grade 6 (1.5 mm 2 < R ≤ 1.75 mm 2 ), Grade 7 (R > 1.75 mm 2 ); The disease index was calculated according to the formula: DI = 100XΣ

number of lesions at each grade X corresponding grade value

[0076] The results showed that 10 days after inoculation with Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri, both the overexpressing plants and the WT plants grafted at the same time showed varying degrees of disease, and there were certain differences in the lesion size ( Figure 4 ). After statistical analysis, it was found that the lesion area of the transgenic materials was significantly smaller than that of the wild-type control, reduced to 12.08% - 57.77% of the control ( Figure 5 ). The disease index of the transgenic materials was significantly smaller than that of the wild-type control, reduced to 19.02% - 48.53% of the control ( Figure 6 ). Thus, it can be seen that overexpression of CsRPS2 can significantly reduce the lesion area of citrus bacterial canker and alleviate the disease severity of citrus canker.

[0077] Generally speaking, in the embodiments of the present invention, by cloning the coding sequence of citrus CsRPS2, constructing an overexpression vector, and then transforming citrus leaves, the disease severity of the obtained transgenic materials can be reduced to a maximum of 48.53% of the existing citrus, which can significantly alleviate the disease severity of canker and reduce the lesion area.

[0078] It should be noted that the CsRPS2 gene provided in the embodiments of the present invention can also be overexpressed through various techniques for use in anti-canker molecular breeding, or can be used together with other disease-resistant or disease-susceptible genes to synergistically conduct citrus anti-canker molecular breeding, which has great application value in citrus anti-canker breeding.

[0079] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
