Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of molecular biology, specifically relating to the application of OsPLDRP1 protein or its encoding gene in improving broad-spectrum disease resistance in rice and regulating agronomic traits. Background Technology

[0002] Rice ( Oryza sativa Rice is a staple food crop for over 50% of the world's population, and its consumption is rapidly increasing in many parts of the world. However, stable rice production is constrained by various biological stresses, including those caused by rice blast fungus (…). Magnaporthe oryzae , M. oryzae Fungal blast disease caused by Rhizoctonia solani ( ) Rhizoctonia solani Sheath blight and Aspergillus niger caused by ) Ustilaginoidea virens ) caused by *Fusarium moniliforme*, *Fusarium moniliforme* ( Fusarium fujikuroi Bakanae disease caused by Xanthomonas oryzae (…) Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae , Xoo Bacterial leaf blight caused by ) and its pathogenic species in rice ( Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola , Xoc Bacterial leaf streak and other diseases caused by pathogens such as bacterial leaf streak are prevalent in rice. Rice blast disease, rice bacterial leaf blight, and rice sheath blight are recognized as the three major diseases affecting rice. These diseases prevent rice from growing and producing grains normally, ultimately severely impacting rice yield and posing a persistent threat to global food security. Therefore, identifying important broad-spectrum disease resistance genes and analyzing their mediated immune signaling pathways can provide a theoretical basis and reference for the artificial design breeding of rice.

[0003] Phospholipase D (PLD) and its cleavage product phosphatidic acid (PA) play crucial roles in plant stress signal transduction. Although some targets of PLD and PA have been identified, the signaling pathways remain a mystery. The rice PLD family comprises 12 members, divided into Ca²⁺-dependent (α / β / γ) and Ca²⁺-independent (δ / ε / ζ) subtypes, each with different C2 or PX / PH domains. The study of some target genes of the PLD family in rice remains unclear. Known PLD regulatory proteins play a role in abiotic stress responses in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, but there are no reports on whether these proteins are involved in resistance to multiple diseases in gramineous crops, i.e., whether the disease resistance function mediated by PLD regulatory proteins is broad-spectrum.

[0004] Different pathogens (such as Magnaporthe oryzae, Rhizoctonia solani and Xanthomonas oryzae) have evolved highly specific pathogenic strategies to destroy the immune system of rice in order to successfully infect rice. Therefore, it is particularly important to mine rice disease resistance genes, breed and plant rice disease-resistant crop varieties to control these diseases and ensure global food security. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the above problems, the present application constructs OsPLDRP1 knockout mutants and overexpression transgenic lines in a susceptible rice background. Through inoculation of multiple pathogens (including Magnaporthe oryzae, Rhizoctonia solani and Xanthomonas oryzae), it is found that OsPLDRP1 significantly affects the resistance of rice to three major diseases, and it is also found that OsPLDRP1 it affects the normal growth and development of rice while triggering the immune response of the plant. The present application provides important genetic resources and molecular theoretical basis for the development of broad-spectrum disease-resistant new rice varieties.

[0006] In the first aspect, the present application provides an application of a product, the product being 1) OsPLDRP1 protein or its coding gene, or 2) an inhibitor of OsPLDRP1 protein activity or its coding gene expression amount, the application being any one of the following,

[0007] a) OsPLDRP1 protein or its coding gene as a target, application in regulating the resistance of plants to Magnaporthe oryzae, Rhizoctonia solani and Xanthomonas oryzae, or application in screening substances capable of regulating the resistance of plants to Magnaporthe oryzae, Rhizoctonia solani and Xanthomonas oryzae;

[0008] b) OsPLDRP1 protein or its coding gene as a target, application in regulating the ability of plant basal defense response, or application in screening substances capable of regulating the plant basal defense response;

[0009] c) an inhibitor of OsPLDRP1 protein activity or its coding gene expression amount, application in regulating the resistance of plants to Magnaporthe oryzae, Rhizoctonia solani and Xanthomonas oryzae;

[0010] d) an inhibitor of OsPLDRP1 protein activity or its coding gene expression amount, application in regulating the ability of plant basal defense response.

[0011] In the present application, "OsPLDRP1 protein" refers to a phospholipase D regulated protein OsPLDRP1 (Phospholipase D REGULATED PROTEIN 1) of rice. The PLD family of rice contains 12 members (such as OsPLDα1-3 , OsPLDβ1-2 , OsPLDδThe phospholipase D family is divided into Ca2+ dependent (α / β / γ) and non-Ca2+ dependent (δ / ε / ζ) two types, and each subtype has different C2 domains or PX / PH domains. Rice phospholipase D regulatory protein is a kind of protein related to phospholipase D (PLD) structure but lacking catalytic activity. In recent years, its function in rice (Oryza sativa) and other plants has been gradually revealed, and it is involved in various physiological processes in cells. OsPLDRP1 also contains nuclear localization and membrane localization signals, which enable it to localize in the nucleus and on the cell membrane, thereby enabling it to regulate the expression of downstream genes and transmit signals to the inside of the cell.

[0012] In some embodiments, in the application a) or c), the activity of the OsPLDRP1 protein or the expression amount of the gene encoding it is down-regulated, thereby up-regulating the resistance of the plant to Magnaporthe oryzae, Rhizoctonia solani and Xanthomonas oryzae; the activity of the OsPLDRP1 protein or the expression amount of the gene encoding it is up-regulated, thereby down-regulating the resistance of the plant to Magnaporthe oryzae, Rhizoctonia solani and Xanthomonas oryzae.

[0013] In this application, rice blast resistance refers to the defense ability of rice to the infection of the pathogenic fungus Magnaporthe oryzae. Magnaporthe oryzae This disease has a whole growth period of infection characteristics, which can damage leaf, stem and ear organs and tissues. The typical symptoms are: central gray and edge brown fusiform lesions appear on the leaves; ear infection causes grain development to be hindered, and in severe cases, it causes absolute yield. This disease usually causes 10%-30% yield loss, and in extreme cases, it can reach 40%-50%. Some rice varieties carry disease genes such as ROD1, which can inhibit immune response; and disease-resistant varieties are not easily infected due to the lack of corresponding disease genes.

[0014] In this application, sheath blight resistance refers to the resistance of rice to the pathogenic action of the pathogenic fungus Rhizoctonia solani. Rhizoctonia solani The disease begins to appear in the tillering stage of rice, and the typical symptoms are: dark green water stain-like small spots are formed on the near-water leaf sheath at the early stage, and the disease develops and expands into an oval cloud pattern, with characteristic performance of edge brown, central light brown to gray white. Severe infection forms irregular large lesions, which can extend to leaves and stems, leading to leaf senescence, plant lodging, and ultimately causing yield loss such as reduced seed setting rate and decreased grain fullness.

[0015] In this application, white leaf blast resistance refers to the resistance of rice to the pathogenic action of the pathogenic fungus Xanthomonas oryzae. Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae,Xoo) pathogenicity defense mechanism. The white leaf blight of rice caused by the gram-negative bacteria is a very destructive bacterial disease. Its resistance genetic characteristics are controlled by single gene or a few major genes, such as the Xa23 gene of rice, which is a typical major gene of white leaf blight resistance. White leaf blight can occur at all stages of rice growth, and the main occurrence site is on the rice leaf and leaf sheath. At first, a semi-transparent yellow small spot will appear on the edge of the rice leaf, and then the yellow-green or gray-green disease spot will expand along the midrib to become a wavy shape, and the boundary between the diseased part and the healthy part will become more and more obvious. After a few days, the disease spot will turn gray and curl inward, and it can be quickly spread in the air through wind, rain, insects or other means, and then infect the whole rice field, which looks like a withered color from a distance, so it is called white leaf blight.

[0016] In some embodiments, in the application b) or d), the activity of the OsPLDRP1 protein or the expression amount of the encoding gene thereof is down-regulated, so as to enhance the ability of the plant basal defense response; the activity of the OsPLDRP1 protein or the expression amount of the encoding gene thereof is up-regulated, so as to weaken the ability of the plant basal defense response.

[0017] In some embodiments, the plant basal defense response includes the production of plant phenols, the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), the activation of defense enzymes, the expression of pathogenesis-related genes, and systemic acquired resistance, etc.

[0023] (4) a DNA molecule whose coding region is the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO. 2;

[0024] (5) a DNA molecule hybridizing to the DNA sequence defined in (4) under stringent conditions and encoding a protein having the same function;

[0025] (6) a DNA molecule having at least 95% sequence identity to the DNA sequence defined in (4) and encoding a protein having the same function.

[0026] In some embodiments, the inhibitor of the OsPLDRP1 protein activity or the expression amount of its encoding gene is one or more of sgRNA, dsRNA or siRNA.

[0027] In some embodiments, the inhibitor is sgRNA, the sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID NO. 7.

[0028] In another aspect, the present application also provides a composition comprising 1) the OsPLDRP1 protein or its encoding gene, or 2) a nucleic acid construct containing the OsPLDRP1 protein or its encoding gene, for use as a plant growth promoter in regulating plant agronomic traits.

[0029] In some embodiments, the regulation is up-regulating the OsPLDRP1 protein activity or the expression amount of its encoding gene, increasing plant height, making the plant type more loose and making the plant heading early; down-regulating the OsPLDRP1 protein activity or the expression amount of its encoding gene, reducing plant height, making the plant type more compact and making the plant heading normally.

[0030] In some embodiments, the OsPLDRP1 protein amino acid sequence is as described above, and the nucleotide sequence of the OsPLDRP1 protein encoding gene is as described above.

[0032] In the present application, the plant can be a plant of the family Poaceae, such as rice.

[0033] Compared with the prior art, the present application constructs OsPLDRP1 knockout mutants and overexpression transgenic lines in a susceptible rice background, and finds that OsPLDRP1 significantly affects the resistance of rice to three major diseases. The experiment uses a field inoculation method to systematically compare the differences in disease resistance of the transgenic materials, and confirms that OsPLDRP1 participates in regulating the immune response pathway of rice to fungal diseases (rice blast and sheath blight) and bacterial diseases (white leaf blight). At the same time, the present application also finds that OsPLDRP1 the mutant material has a shorter panicle length than the wild type, and after being driven by a strong promoter ubi,OsPLDRP1 The overexpression material had a looser plant structure, taller plants, and an earlier heading phenotype compared to the wild type. OsPLDRP1 This study demonstrates how the disease can stimulate a plant's immune response while simultaneously affecting the normal growth and development of rice. It provides important genetic resources and a molecular theoretical basis for the development of new broad-spectrum disease-resistant rice varieties. Attached Figure Description

[0112] Example 4 OsPLDRP1 Negative regulation of rice resistance to Magnaporthe grisea

[0113] 1) Field harvested seeds were oven dried at 42°C for 4-7 days and sun dried for a week, then soaked in water at room temperature for 24 h, the soaking water was discarded and the seeds were washed with clean water for three times, then the seeds were placed on wet paper towel and kept at room temperature for 2 days for germination. When the seedlings were about 0.5 cm in length, they were transplanted into greenhouse soil or water culture boxes. The rice culture box was kept at 28°C with 12 h light and 12 h dark.

[0114] 2) Pyricularia grisea race TH12 was activated with CM medium. Filter paper pieces containing P. grisea spores were placed in the center of CM solid medium. The medium was incubated at 28°C for 7-10 days for sporulation (12 h light / 12 h dark). When the CM medium was covered with mycelium, the spores were washed off with pure water containing 0.02% Tween 20, filtered with double layers of gauze, and prepared into a spore suspension. The spore concentration for inoculation was 5 x 10 5 spores per ml, and there were 30-50 spores per field under 10 x 10 microscope.

[0115] 3) Knockout lines and overexpression lines of OsPLDRP1 and wild type TP309 were inoculated with P. grisea in vitro. The disease incidence was investigated 7-10 days after inoculation, and the length of disease spots was measured to calculate the fungal growth amount on the leaves of each rice plant.

[0116] The results are shown in Figure 4 The length of P. grisea spots on the leaves of CR-Ospldrp1#1 and CR-Ospldrp1#2 was significantly reduced compared to wild type TP309, and the fungal growth amount was also lower. The length of P. grisea spots on the leaves of Ubi : OsPLDRP1# 1-#2 was significantly increased compared to wild type TP309, and the fungal growth amount was also higher. Therefore, it was proved that OsPLDRP1 negatively regulates the resistance of rice to P. grisea.

[0117] Example 5 OsPLDRP1 Negative regulation of the resistance of rice to X. oryzae

[0118] 1) The sclerotia of X. oryzae preserved in the laboratory were placed on PDA solid medium and grown at 28°C. PDA medium (1 L): potato 200 g (cut into small pieces and boiled with water until the potato pieces were soft and pulpy, filtered with four layers of gauze), glucose 20 g, and 15 g / L agar powder was added to the solid medium.

[0119] 2) When new mycelium grew out of the sclerotia, the leading end of the mycelium was cut off with a sterile blade and placed on a new PDA medium for culture.

[0120] 3) Repeat step 2 until no other contaminant bacteria on the medium, continue to culture for 2-3 days until sclerotia are produced.

[0121] 4) Cut the toothpicks into small pieces of about 2 cm, sterilize.

[0122] 5) Take the sclerotia on PDA medium, after 1-2 days of culture, spread the sterilized toothpicks, continue to grow for 2-3 days, when the mycelium crawls over the toothpicks, it can be used to inoculate the sheath blight fungus.

[0123] 6) Rice can be inoculated with sheath blight fungus when it is about 2 months old before the booting stage. When inoculating, use tweezers to take the toothpicks and insert them into the second and third leaf sheaths of rice.

[0124] 7) The incidence of sheath blight fungus can be observed 7 days after inoculation.

[0125] The results are shown in Figure 5 , the lesion length on the leaf sheath of the knockout line CR-Ospldrp1#1 and the plant CR-Ospldrp1#2 is significantly reduced compared with the wild type TP309, proving that it negatively regulates the resistance of rice to the fungus sheath blight fungus.
