Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of genetic engineering, specifically relating to rice. OsSAFM10 Application of genes in improving rice resistance to rice blast. Background Technology
[0002] Rice blast fungus ( Magnaporthe oryzae Rice blast, caused by fungal infection, is a serious fungal disease that can occur throughout the entire growth cycle of rice. Based on the stage and location of infection, it is mainly classified into seedling blast, leaf blast, node blast, neck blast, and grain blast. Rice blast is characterized by its high susceptibility to outbreaks, wide distribution, and rapid spread.
[0003] Long-term effective control of rice blast remains challenging. Currently, the most effective means of field control of rice blast is to plant high-yielding varieties carrying disease-resistant genes. However, the rice blast pathogen has a complex population structure in the field and mutates rapidly under the pressure of natural selection, thus evading selective recognition by the host. Therefore, single-gene resistance is usually short-lived, especially under long-term, large-scale planting of a single rice variety, where rice resistance is lost rapidly.
[0004] To address this problem, an effective solution is to conduct follow-up investigations. AVR The variation of genes in field pathogen populations provides a reference for rational crop rotation of resistant varieties. Simultaneously, planting different... R Genetic diversification or multi-lineage varieties composed of gene loci such as those resistant to rice blast can also delay the loss of rice resistance. Furthermore, the rational use of broad-spectrum rice blast resistance genes or gene editing technology to cultivate new disease-resistant rice varieties is a key direction for effective rice blast control in the future green economy.
[0005] Over the past decade, several broad-spectrum genes for resistance to rice blast have been identified in rice.
[0006] These include: C2H2 type transcription factors bsr-d1 The natural alleles of rice were identified and conferred broad-spectrum resistance to rice blast. The rice RING protein OsBBI1 with E3 ligase activity modifies the cell wall defense mechanism, increases ROS accumulation in cells, and has broad-spectrum resistance to rice blast fungus. Phosphorylation of rice light-harvesting complex II protein LHCB5 induces the release of ROS in chloroplasts, enhancing the broad-spectrum resistance of rice to rice blast. The immune regulatory protein PICI1 enhances defense metabolism to obtain broad-spectrum disease resistance by promoting the methionine-ethylene metabolic pathway and participating in the rice PTI and ETI pathways.
[0007] The ERAD-associated ubiquitin-binding enzyme OsUBC45 regulates rice yield and broad-spectrum disease resistance by promoting the degradation of OsGSK3, a negative regulator of rice yield, and OsPIP2;1, a negative regulator of disease resistance.
[0008] In addition, researchers combined artificial mutagenesis with whole-genome sequencing to clone the key regulatory gene RBL1 for broad-spectrum disease resistance in rice, and created new rice materials with broad-spectrum disease resistance that take into account both growth and yield through gene editing technology.
[0009] The key protein OsBDR1, responsible for rice blast resistance, negatively regulates rice resistance by phosphorylating MPK3 and inhibiting the synthesis of jasmonic acid and terpenoids. Screening for recessive OsBDR1 genetic materials holds promise for obtaining broad-spectrum resistant rice varieties.
[0010] Therefore, exploring new rice blast resistance genes and resistance resources, and cultivating broad-spectrum disease-resistant varieties is a green and efficient strategy to ensure crop yield and quality, which is of great significance to agricultural production. Summary of the Invention

[0036] OsSAFM10 The impact on disease resistance in rice.
[0037] To verify the gene OsSAFM10 It participates in the defense response of rice against rice blast, and OsSAFM10 The overexpression was used to identify rice blast resistance in plants. The specific procedures are as follows: Wild-type rice blast fungus strain RB22 was activated on OA medium and cultured in the dark at 25°C for 3 days, followed by light culture for 4 days. Sterile ddH2O was added to the culture dish, and the mycelia were gently scraped off with an inoculation loop to elute the rice blast fungus spores from the medium. The eluent was filtered through a filter cloth to obtain a spore suspension. The spore suspension was placed in a 2 mL centrifuge tube and centrifuged at 12000 rpm for 2 min. The supernatant was discarded (avoiding the discarding of spores at the bottom), and sterile ddH2O was added to adjust the spore concentration to no less than 1 × 10⁻⁶. 6 1 / mL of spores / mL. Add 1 / 10 volume of 0.1% Gelatin (final Gelatin concentration 0.01%, v / v) to the spore solution for inoculation with rice blast fungus.
[0038] In vitro inoculation: Cut rice seedlings at the 4-leaf stage ( OsSAFM10 To express the strains of rice blast fungus (both wild-type and overexpressing varieties), cut rice leaves into 5-8 cm segments. Gently prick the leaves with a pipette tip to create wounds (piercing the leaf but not penetrating it), then spread the leaves and fix them onto moist water agar. Add a prepared suspension of rice blast fungus spores (1-2 × 10⁻⁶). 6After mixing, the mixture was dropped on the leaf wound with a pipette, and left for more than 30 min to facilitate the spore settlement of the rice blast fungus. The leaves were cultured in a 25℃ incubator for 5-7 days after inoculation, and the infection of the rice blast fungus was observed and the length of the lesion was measured.
[0039] The results of inoculation Figure 2 showed that the lesion area of the overexpression plants OsSAFM10 -OE-5 and OsSAFM10 -OE-9 were significantly smaller than that of the wild type, indicating that the overexpression OsSAFM10 enhanced the resistance of rice to rice blast.

[0041] OsSAFM10 Effect on reactive oxygen burst.
[0042] Reactive oxygen burst assay: The same size of 4-leaf stage rice leaves were punched on both sides of the main veins with a puncher to obtain uniform circular leaf discs. The leaf discs were placed in ddH2O and left in the dark at room temperature overnight. One leaf disc was randomly selected from each sample with tweezers and placed on an absorbent paper to dry the surface moisture. The leaf disc was placed at the bottom of a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube containing 100 μL luminol, 1 μL horseradish peroxidase and 1 μL chitin. Then the centrifuge tube was quickly placed in a Glomax 20 / 20Luminometer instrument, and the fluorescence intensity was measured every 60 s using the dynamic detection mode on the instrument, a total of 20 times, for 20 min. All the data measured were saved in Excel software and analyzed, and each treatment was repeated 5 times.
[0043] The results of the luminol chemiluminescence assay Figure 3 showed that the growth rate of ROS in the overexpression plants OsSAFM10 -OE-5 and OsSAFM10 -OE-9 was faster, and the accumulation was significantly higher than that of the wild type, indicating that the overexpression OsSAFM10 gene enhanced the resistance of rice to rice blast.
