Abstract
Description
A parthenogenetic haploid inducing gene DMP and its application Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of agricultural biotechnology and crop genetics and breeding, primarily based on genome editing technology. Specifically, it relates to a method for preparing a plant maternal haploid inducing line and its application, particularly to the application of a DMP mutant of the parthenogenetic haploid inducing gene obtained using gene editing technology as a plant haploid inducing plant to produce maternal haploids. Background Technology
[0002] The selection of superior inbred lines is fundamental and crucial for utilizing heterosis and breeding superior hybrids in crops. However, traditional breeding methods require 7-8 generations to obtain relatively stable inbred lines, while haploid breeding technology only requires 2 generations (Weber DF, 2014), significantly shortening the breeding cycle. Currently, the generation of haploids in dicotyledonous crops mainly relies on anther culture, which is inefficient and highly dependent on the genotype of the material, making large-scale application difficult. Although introducing genetically modified centromere-specific histone 3 variants into Arabidopsis thaliana cenh3 mutants can induce haploid generation, this method produces a large number of euploids during the induction process (Ravi, M, et al, 2010).
[0003] Currently, gene editing technology is a mature and stable system, but its maximum potential cannot be fully realized due to the dependence of genetic transformation on materials and genotypes. While gene editing can be achieved by introducing gene editing vectors into easily transformable recipient materials and then hybridizing them with the target material (Li C et al., 2017), backcrossing is required for a long time to restore the background and cannot achieve 100% restoration. Combining haploid induction with gene editing technology has enabled the editing of haploid genes in target materials to obtain homozygous edited lines, greatly shortening and broadening the application scope of haploid and gene editing technologies (Kelliher, T et al., 2019; Wang, B et al., 2019; Hu, N et al., 2019). However, in dicotyledonous plants, the lack of bio-induced haploid production methods prevents its integration with gene editing technology.

[0031] The silencing or inhibition of the expression and / or activity of the SlDMP gene in the tomato genome, or the knockout of the SlDMP gene, means reducing the expression level of the SlDMP gene in the tomato genome or causing deletion mutations, insertion mutations, or base substitutions in the SlDMP gene in the tomato genome.
[0032] The method for reducing the expression level of the DMP gene in the plant genome can be RNAi interference. The RNAi interference can be single-stranded RNA interference, such as miRNA, or double-stranded RNA interference, such as siRNA, dsRNA, shRNA, etc.
[0033] The methods used to induce deletion mutations, insertion mutations, or base substitutions in the DMP gene of the plant genome can be CRISPR / Cas9, TELLEN, T-DNA insertion, or EMS mutagenesis.
[0034] Furthermore, the method for inducing deletion mutations, insertion mutations, or base substitutions in the DMP gene of the plant genome is CRISPR / Cas9.

[0053] Another objective of this invention is to provide a method for preparing plant haploids.
[0054] The method for preparing plant haploids provided by the present invention includes the following steps: self-pollinating the plant haploid induction line or its offspring prepared by the above method, or using it as a male parent to hybridize with other plant materials to obtain self-pollinated offspring or hybrid offspring, which are the plant haploids; the plant is a dicotyledonous plant.
[0055] Furthermore, the above-mentioned method for preparing plant haploids also includes the following steps: performing fluorescent labeling and / or haploid trait identification and / or leaf ploidy identification and / or molecular marker identification on the self-pollinated offspring or the hybrid offspring, and selecting offspring plants that are identified as haploid by at least one method as plant haploids.
[0056] Furthermore, the fluorescent labeling identification method can be performed as follows: The aforementioned haploid inducible line carrying a fluorescent protein expression element is used as the male parent and crossed with the female parent to obtain hybrid offspring. The presence or absence of fluorescence in the offspring seeds is used to determine whether the seed to be tested is haploid or diploid: if the seed shows no fluorescence or weak fluorescence, it is haploid or a candidate for haploid; if it shows strong fluorescence, it is diploid or a candidate for diploid. Further, fluorescence is detected using a fluorescent lamp. Moreover, since the male parent carries a TagRFP fluorescent protein expression element driven by the AtOLEO1 promoter, the presence or absence of red fluorescence in the hybrid offspring seeds can be used to determine whether they are haploid or diploid.
[0057] The method for identifying haploid traits can be carried out as follows: if the plant to be tested has characteristics such as short stature, narrow and upward-pointing leaves, compact plant type, and male sterility, then the plant is or is a candidate for haploid; if the plant to be tested has characteristics such as tall stature, wide and spreading leaves, and normal fertility, then the plant is or is a candidate for diploid.
[0058] The leaf ploidy identification method can be performed as follows: Extract the nuclei from the young leaves of the plant to be tested, using diploid plant leaves as a control; then use flow cytometry to detect the signal. First, detect the diploid cell nuclear signal, setting the peak position of the diploid cell nuclear signal to 50 (since the genetic material in diploid cells is twice that in haploid cells, the peak position of the haploid cell nuclear signal appears around 25). If the cell nuclear signal peak of the plant to be tested appears around 25, then the plant is or is a candidate for haploid; if the signal peak of the plant to be tested appears around 50, and its intensity enrichment position is the same as that of the diploid cell nuclear signal, then the plant is or is a candidate for diploid.
[0059] The molecular marker identification can be performed as follows: PCR amplification is performed using polymorphic primers between the paternal parent (maternal haploid inducible line) and the maternal parent. The PCR amplification products are used to determine whether the plant to be tested is haploid or diploid: if the amplification product of the plant to be tested only has the banding pattern of the maternal parent and does not have the banding pattern of the paternal parent, then the plant is or is a candidate for haploid; if the amplification product of the plant to be tested has heterozygous banding patterns of both the paternal and maternal parents, then the plant is or is a candidate for diploid.

[0124] I. Knocking out the AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 genes using the CRISPR / Cas9 system
[0125] The AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 genes in Arabidopsis thaliana were knocked out using the CRISPR / Cas9 system to obtain AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 gene knockout mutants. The specific steps are as follows:
[0126] 1. Selection of sgRNA sequence
[0127] Target site sequences with a length of 20 bp were designed on the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 genes, respectively.
[0128] Target site 1 is located at positions 98-117 of sequence 1 and positions 144-163 of sequence 3. The sequence of sgRNA target site 1 is GAGAAAACAGAGGAAAGCGT.
[0129] Target site 2 is located at positions 290-309 of sequence 3, and the sequence of sgRNA target site 2 is AAGAGGTCGAAAACGTCGCA.
[0130] Target site 3 is located at positions 368-387 of sequence 3, and the sequence of sgRNA target site 3 is TCAAGAGTGTTCCTGTCGGA.
[0131] Target site 4 is located at positions 509-528 of sequence 1 and positions 558-577 of sequence 3. The sequence of sgRNA target site 4 is ATGAACACCGCGAGTCCACG.
[0132] 2. Construction of CRISPR / Cas9 vectors
[0133] The CRISPR / Cas9 vector is a recombinant vector obtained by ligating the DNA molecules shown in Sequence 7 (sgRNA expression element), Sequence 9 (Cas9 expression element), and Sequence 10 (fluorescent protein expression element) into the pICSL4723 vector using the golden gate method (vector structure diagram is shown in Figure 9a). The DNA molecule shown in Sequence 7 sequentially includes the coding sequences of sgRNA targeting target site 1, sgRNA targeting target site 2, sgRNA targeting target site 2, and sgRNA targeting target site 4. Each sgRNA coding sequence is preceded by an AtU6-26 promoter for initiating the expression of the sgRNA coding sequence.
[0134] 3. Obtaining transgenic plants
[0135] The CRISPR / Cas9 vector obtained in step 2 was transformed into Agrobacterium competent cells GV3101 (Agrobacterium GV3101 competent cells were purchased from Beijing Aosendin Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and are available to the public through purchase) via heat shock transformation to obtain recombinant bacteria GV3101 / CRISPR / Cas9.
[0136] The recombinant bacteria GV3101 / CRISPR / Cas9 was then used to infect the inflorescences of wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 using the Agrobacterium tumefaciens transformation method (the recombinant Agrobacterium tumefaciens was propagated at 28°C, and the propagated bacterial solution was used to infect the inflorescences of Arabidopsis thaliana). After screening with red fluorescence, T1 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants were obtained.
[0137] 4. Identification of transgenic plants with mutations in the AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 genes
[0138] Leaves of T1 generation transgenic Arabidopsis plants obtained in step 3 were collected, and genomic DNA was extracted as a template. The following two pairs of primers were used for PCR amplification to obtain PCR amplification products of different strains.
[0139] The sequences of the primers for AtDMP8 mutant sequence detection are as follows:
[0140] DMP8F1:TGCGAAATGAGATTGGTTTTGGG;
[0141] DMP8R1:AAACACCCTGTGACTCTCCG.
[0142] The sequences of the primers for AtDMP9 mutant sequence detection are as follows:
[0143] DMP9F1:ATAACCGTCAATAACCGCCG;
[0144] DMP9R2: CCAGTCATGCAACCAACACC.
[0145] PCR amplification products from different strains were subjected to Sanger sequencing, and the sequencing results were compared with those of wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 (AtDMP8 and AtDMP9). The genotypes of AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 were identified according to the following principles.
[0146] If a sequence has a bimodal characteristic starting from the target site sequence, then the genotype of the strain is heterozygous (the AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 genes on one of the two homologous chromosomes are mutated, while the AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 genes on the other chromosome are not mutated), and the strain is a T1 generation transgenic Arabidopsis heterozygous mutant strain.
[0147] If a sequence with a specific single-peak characteristic starting from the target site sequence is identical to the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 gene sequences of wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0, then the genotype of the strain is wild-type, meaning that the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 gene sequences have not been mutated; if it is different from the AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 gene sequences of wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0, then the genotype of the strain is homozygous (mutations have occurred in the AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 genes on both homologous chromosomes), and the strain is a T1 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana homozygous mutant strain.
[0148] The identification results are shown in Tables 1 and 2 (Tables 1 and 2 show the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 gene mutations in the T1 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana, respectively): Of the 41 T1 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants, 33 had mutations in the AtDMP8 gene, including 2 homozygous mutations and 17 biallelic mutations. Of the 28 T1 generation transgenic plants, 5 had homozygous mutations and 7 biallelic mutations. Twelve plants had both homozygous and biallelic mutations in AtDMP8 and AtDMP9. Further phenotypic identification was performed on single plants with frameshift mutations (deletions not multiples of 3) from among the homozygous and biallelic mutation plants. There are three types: AtDMP8 homozygous mutation / bicelestem mutation, AtDMP9 homozygous mutation / bicelestem mutation, and both AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 homozygous mutation / bicelestem mutation.

[0167] 5. Genotyping of T2 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana
[0168] The T1 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 gene mutant lines T1-19, T1-33, and T1-38 obtained in step 4 were self-pollinated, and the seeds were harvested and then sown to obtain the T2 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana. The genotypes of the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 genes in the T2 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana were identified using the following method: using the genomic DNA of the T2 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana as a template, the genotypes of the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 genes in the T2 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana were identified using the mutation sequence detection primers for AtDMP8 (DMP8F1 and DMP8R1) and AtDMP9 (DMP9F1 and DMP9R2) respectively, following the method described in step 4.

[0172] Sequencing analysis revealed that, compared to the wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0, the T2 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana AtDMP9 gene mutation homozygous lines T2-33-4, T2-33-5, and T2-33-6 differed only in the insertion of a single T base in the gene encoding the AtDMP9 protein. This T base insertion was located between positions 160 and 161 of sequence 3, and a fragment insertion occurred within the AtDMP9 protein gene.

Furthermore, two insertions of the bases T and G occurred in the gene encoding the AtDMP9 protein, located at positions 160-161 and 562-563 of sequence 3, respectively.
[0176] The T1 and T2 generation transgenic Arabidopsis mutant lines were selected for the following haploid induction ability analysis experiment.
[0177] II. Application of Arabidopsis mutants with AtDMP8 and / or AtDMP9 gene knockout in the induction of haploid production
[0178] (I) Identification of the haploid self-crossing induction ability of Arabidopsis mutants with AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 gene knockout
[0179] Three types of mutants obtained from the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 genes were self-crossed to obtain self-crossed progeny. Haploidity was identified in the self-crossed progeny using the following method (since wild Arabidopsis thaliana Col is a homozygous inbred line, the self-crossed progeny of mutants obtained by knocking out the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 genes cannot be identified by molecular markers):
[0180] 1. Plant phenotypic identification
[0181] After planting the self-pollinated seeds, the phenotype of individual plants was observed. Haploid plants were characterized by short stature, narrow and upward-pointing leaves, compact plant type, and male sterility, while diploid plants were characterized by tall stature, wide and spreading leaves, and normal fertility (Figure 1, Figure 2).
[0182] 2. Leaf identification by flow cytometry
[0183] The haploid plants obtained in step 1 were subjected to flow cytometry analysis. The specific method is as follows: Nuclei were extracted from young leaves of the plants to be tested, with diploid Arabidopsis leaves used as a control. The flow cytometry instrument was then used to detect the signal. First, the diploid cell nuclear signal was detected, and the peak position of the diploid cell nuclear signal was set to 50 (since the genetic material in diploid cells is twice that in haploid cells, the peak position of the haploid cell nuclear signal appears around 25). If the signal peak of the tested plant's cell nuclear signal appears around 25, the plant is considered haploid. If the signal peak of the tested plant appears around 50, it is considered to have the same intensity enrichment position as the diploid cell nuclear signal, and the plant is considered diploid (Figure 3).
[0184] The above identification results were statistically analyzed, and the induction rate was calculated using the following formula: Induction rate (%) = (Number of haploid plants / Total number of plants) × 100. It can be seen that simultaneous mutation of the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 genes can produce haploid offspring in self-crossing.
[0185] Table 3. Statistics on haploid induction rate in self-crossed progeny of dmp mutants

[0187] (II) Identification of the haploid hybridization induction ability of Arabidopsis mutants with AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 gene knockout
[0188] Three types of mutants obtained from the AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 genes were crossed with Arabidopsis thaliana ms1 material to obtain hybrid offspring. Haploids in the hybrid offspring were identified using the following method:
[0189] 1. Identification by fluorescent labeling
[0190] The CRISPR / Cas9 vector carries the AtOLEO1 promoter, which drives the expression of TagRFP (Entacmaea quadricolor). Since the AtOLEO1 promoter is specifically expressed in mature seed embryos, the fluorescence signal of TagRFP can be observed using a fluorescent lamp. Therefore, when a mutant carrying this expression element is used as the male parent and crossed with other maternal materials that do not carry fluorescence, the embryos of diploid seeds exhibit strong red fluorescence due to the paternal genome, while the embryos of haploid seeds, derived from the maternal parent, show no fluorescence or weak fluorescence (Figure 4).
[0191] 2. Molecular marker identification
[0192] The seeds identified in step 1 above that exhibited no fluorescence or weak fluorescence were further planted, and their genomic DNA was extracted. PCR amplification was performed using primers 092B02-F (092B02-F: CAGCTGAGATGAACGAGTTGTCTT), 092B02-R (092B02-R: TCTTTTGAGTCACTCCGTATGTCC), and LB-o8474 (LB-o8474: ATAATACGCTGCGGACATCTACATTTT) to detect the amplification products using agarose gels. If the amplification product of the tested plant was 500 bp in size and showed a single band, the plant was considered to have the Arabidopsis ms1 band pattern. If the band pattern of the paternal material was not present, the plant was considered a maternal haploid. If the amplification products of the tested single plant are 500bp and 1094bp in size, showing two bands, it is considered that the bands of the single plant are heterozygous bands of Arabidopsis ms1 and transgenic Arabidopsis mutant lines. In this case, the single plant is a offspring of normal hybridization and is diploid (Figure 5).
[0193] 3. Phenotypic identification of mature plants
[0194] Further observation of the phenotypes of the plants identified in steps 1 and 2 above revealed that haploid plants are characterized by short stature, narrow and upward-pointing leaves, compact plant type, and male sterility, while diploid plants are characterized by tall stature, wide and spreading leaves, and normal fertility.
[0195] 4. Leaf identification by flow cytometry
[0196] The haploid plants obtained in step 3 above were subjected to flow cytometry analysis. The specific method is as follows: Nuclei were extracted from the young leaves of the plants to be tested, with diploid Arabidopsis leaves used as a control. The flow cytometry instrument was then used to detect the signal. First, the diploid cell nuclear signal was detected, and the peak position of the diploid cell nuclear signal was set to 50 (since the genetic material in diploid cells is twice that in haploid cells, the peak position of the haploid cell nuclear signal appears around 25). If the signal peak of the tested plant's cell nuclear signal appears around 25, the plant is considered haploid. If the signal peak of the tested plant appears around 50, it is considered to have the same intensity enrichment position as the diploid cell nuclear signal, and the plant is considered diploid.
[0197] The above identification results were statistically analyzed, and the induction rate was calculated using the following formula: Induction rate (%) = (Number of maternal haploid plants / Total number of plants) × 100. It can be seen that maternal haploids can be obtained in the offspring of crosses between AtDMP8 gene mutation, AtDMP9 gene mutation, and simultaneous mutation of AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 genes with other materials.

[0203] The SlDMP gene in tomato was knocked out using the CRISPR / Cas9 system to obtain an SlDMP gene knockout tomato mutant. The specific steps are as follows:
[0204] 1. Selection of sgRNA sequence
[0205] A target site sequence with a length of 20 bp was designed on the SlDMP gene.
[0206] Target site 1 is located at positions 76-95 of sequence 5, and the sequence of sgRNA target site 1 is TATCCTACTAATTTACCACA.
[0207] Target site 2 is located at positions 247-266 of sequence 5, and the sequence of sgRNA target site 2 is TCTCCTTTACCAAATACTGA.
[0208] 2. Construction of CRISPR / Cas9 vectors
[0209] The CRISPR / Cas9 vector is a recombinant vector obtained by ligating the DNA molecules shown in sequence 8 (sgRNA expression element), sequence 11 (Cas9 expression element), sequence 10 (fluorescent protein expression element), and sequence 12 (NptII expression element) into the pICSL4723 vector using the golden gate method (vector structure diagram is shown in Figure 9b). The DNA molecule shown in sequence 8 includes the coding sequences of sgRNA targeting target site 1 and sgRNA targeting target site 2, respectively. Each sgRNA coding sequence is preceded by an AtU6-26 promoter for initiating the expression of the sgRNA coding sequence.
[0210] 3. Obtaining transgenic plants
[0211] The CRISPR / Cas9 vector obtained in step 2 was transformed into Agrobacterium competent cells GV3101 (Agrobacterium GV3101 competent cells were purchased from Beijing Aosendin Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and are available to the public through purchase) via heat shock transformation to obtain recombinant bacteria GV3101 / CRISPR / Cas9.
[0212] The recombinant bacteria GV3101 / CRISPR / Cas9 was then used to infect the cotyledon explants of wild-type tomato AC using Agrobacterium tumefaciens (the recombinant Agrobacterium tumefaciens was propagated at 28°C, and the propagated bacterial solution was used for the tomato cotyledon explants). After kanamycin resistance screening, T0 generation transgenic tomato plants were obtained.
[0213] 4. Identification of transgenic plants with mutations in the SlDMP gene
[0214] Leaves of T0 generation transgenic tomato plants obtained in step 3 were collected, and genomic DNA was extracted as a template. PCR amplification was performed using the following primers to obtain PCR amplification products of different strains.
[0215] The sequences of the primers for detecting SlDMP gene mutations are as follows:
[0216] SlDMPF2: ACTGCTTAGGATATTAACTGACCC;
[0217] SlDMPR1:TTTTGGCACATCGACACCAAG.
[0218] PCR amplification products from different strains were subjected to Sanger sequencing, and the sequencing results were compared with the SlDMP gene of wild-type tomato AC. The genotype of SlDMP was identified according to the following principles.
[0219] If a sequence has a bimodal characteristic starting from the target site sequence, then the genotype of the strain is heterozygous (the SlDMP gene on one of the two homologous chromosomes is mutated, while the SlDMP gene on the other chromosome is not mutated), and the strain is a T0 generation transgenic tomato heterozygous mutant strain.
[0220] If a sequence with a specific single-peak characteristic starting from the target site sequence is identical to the SlDMP gene sequence of wild-type tomato AC, then the genotype of the strain is wild-type, meaning that the SlDMP gene sequence has not mutated; if it is different from the SlDMP gene sequence of wild-type tomato AC, then the genotype of the strain is homozygous (the SlDMP gene on two homologous chromosomes has mutated), and the strain is a T0 generation transgenic tomato homozygous mutant strain.

[0224] Note: "-" indicates a missing base.
[0225] 5. Genotyping of T1 generation transgenic tomatoes
[0226] The T0 generation transgenic tomato SlDMP gene mutant lines T0-12 and T0-34 obtained in step 4 were self-crossed, and the seeds were harvested and then sown to obtain the T1 generation transgenic tomatoes. The genotype of the SlDMP gene in the T1 generation transgenic tomatoes was identified using the following method: using the genomic DNA of the T1 generation transgenic tomatoes as a template, the genotype of the SlDMP gene in the T1 generation transgenic tomatoes was identified using the mutation sequence detection primers for SlDMP (SlDMPF2 and SlDMPR1) according to the method in step 4.
[0227] The final T1 generation transgenic tomato lines with SlDMP gene mutation homozygous strains were sldmp-1 and sldmp-2. The mutation types of each line are as follows:
[0228] Sequencing analysis revealed that, compared with the genomic DNA of wild-type tomato AC, the T1 generation transgenic tomato SlDMP gene mutation homozygous line sldmp-1 differed only in that a single C base was inserted into the gene encoding the SlDMP protein, located between positions 92 and 93 of sequence 5.
[0229] Sequencing analysis revealed that, compared with the genomic DNA of wild-type tomato AC, the T1 generation transgenic tomato SlDMP gene mutation homozygous line sldmp-2 differed only in that a segment deletion occurred in the gene encoding the SlDMP protein, located at positions 93-249 of sequence 5.
[0230] II. Application of SlDMP gene knockout tomato mutants in inducing haploid production
[0231] (I) Analysis of plant phenotypes and fruit set rate of SlDMP gene knockout tomato mutants
[0232] Comparing the performance of wild-type tomato plants with AC and tomato mutants with the SlDMP gene knocked out under AC backgrounds, it was found that SlDMP gene knockout did not affect plant growth (Figure 6). The number of seeds per self-pollinated tomato fruit was statistically analyzed. Wild-type plants produced an average of approximately 79.5 seeds per self-pollinated fruit, while the sldmp mutant produced only 17 seeds, significantly lower than the wild type (Table 6). This indicates that the SlDMP gene mutation led to a decrease in fruit set, suggesting that the sldmp mutant has the ability to induce haploidy.
[0233] Table 6. Statistics on the number of seeds produced by self-crossing of sldmp mutants
[0234] Material statistics: Average number of ears and seeds (WT) 1279.5±24.1 sldmp-11419.7±7.1 sldmp-22315.3±6.6
[0235] Note: WT stands for wild-type tomato AC.
[0236] (II) Identification of the haploid hybridization induction ability of SlDMP gene knockout tomato mutants
[0237] The sldmp mutant was crossed with tomato AC and Micro-Tom to obtain F1 generation materials, and the haploids in the hybrid offspring were identified by the following method:
[0238] 1. Identification by fluorescent labeling
[0239] The CRISPR / Cas9 vector carries the AtOLEO1 promoter, which drives the expression of TagRFP (Entacmaea quadricolor). Since the AtOLEO1 promoter is specifically expressed in mature seed embryos, the fluorescence signal of TagRFP can be observed using a fluorescent lamp. Therefore, when a mutant carrying this expression element is used as the male parent and crossed with other maternal materials that do not carry fluorescence, the embryos of diploid seeds exhibit red fluorescence due to the paternal genome, while the embryos of haploid seeds, derived from the maternal parent, exhibit no fluorescence or weak fluorescence (Figure 7).
[0240] 2. Molecular marker identification
[0241] The non-fluorescent seeds identified in step 1 were further planted, and their genomic DNA was extracted. PCR amplification was performed using the primers SlDMPF2+SlDMPR1, which are polymorphic primers used between the F1 generation obtained from the cross between tomato AC and Micro-Tom and the SlDMP gene knockout tomato mutant. The amplified products were then subjected to agarose gel spectroscopy or sequencing. If the amplified product of the tested plant showed one band or the sequencing result showed a single peak, the band was considered to be maternal banding, and no paternal banding was observed, indicating that the plant was maternal haploid. If the amplified product of the tested plant showed two bands or the sequencing result showed a heterozygous peak, the band was considered to be heterozygous banding between the F1 generation obtained from the cross between tomato AC and Micro-Tom and the SlDMP gene knockout tomato mutant, indicating that the plant was a normal hybrid offspring and was diploid.
[0242] 3. Phenotypic identification of mature plants
[0243] Further observation of the phenotypes of the plants identified in steps 1 and 2 above revealed that haploid plants are characterized by short stature, narrow and upward-pointing leaves, compact plant type, and male sterility, while diploid plants are characterized by tall stature, wide and spreading leaves, and normal fertility.
[0244] 4. Leaf identification by flow cytometry
[0245] The haploid plants obtained in step 3 above were subjected to flow cytometry analysis. The specific method is as follows: Nuclei were extracted from the young leaves of the plants to be tested, with diploid tomato leaves used as a control. The flow cytometer was then used to detect the signal. First, the diploid cell nucleus signal was detected, and the peak position of the diploid cell nucleus signal was set to 100 (since the genetic material in diploid cells is twice that in haploid cells, the peak position of the haploid cell nucleus signal appears around 50). If the signal peak of the plant to be tested appears around 50, the plant is considered haploid. If the signal peak of the plant to be tested appears around 100, it is considered to have the same intensity enrichment position as the diploid cell nucleus signal, and the plant is considered diploid (Figure 8).
[0246] The above identification results were statistically analyzed, and the induction rate was calculated using the following formula: Induction rate (%) = (Number of maternal haploid plants / Total number of plants) × 100. After the SlDMP gene mutation is performed, hybridization with other materials yields maternal haploids in the hybrid offspring.
[0247] Table 7. Statistics on haploid induction rate in the hybrid offspring of sldmp mutants
[0248] Total number of hybrid plants | Number of haploids | Haploid induction rate (%) F1×WT 9540 0.00 F1×sldmp-13232 0.62 F1×sldmp-26293 0.99
[0249] Note: F1 is the offspring of a cross between tomato AC and Micro-Tom, and WT is wild-type tomato AC.
[0250] Industrial applications
[0251] This invention cloned the parthenogenetic haploid inducing genes AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 from Arabidopsis thaliana. Experiments demonstrated that mutations in AtDMP8 and AtDMP9 can induce parthenogenetic haploids, extending the application of parthenogenetic haploid induction to dicotyledonous crops. This invention further validated the technology in tomato, where mutations in AtDMP8 also showed parthenogenetic haploid induction. This invention lays an important foundation for broadening the application of haploid breeding technology in dicotyledonous plants and elucidating the biological mechanisms of parthenogenetic haploid formation. Given the widespread use of haploid breeding technology in the current breeding industry, this invention has a very broad application scope and market prospect.
