The application belongs to the technical field of
plant genetic engineering, and particularly relates to a
cyclic nucleotide-
gated ion channel OsCNGC10
gene for regulating rice lodging resistance and
drought resistance and application. A
cyclic nucleotide-
gated ion channel OsCNGC10
gene induced by drought is screened, and the
nucleotide sequence is shown as SEQ ID NO:1; the
protein sequence coded by the
gene is shown as SEQ ID NO:2. An OsCNGC10 overexpression strain and a
CRISPR / Cas9
mutant strain are obtained by using an
agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Stem characteristics and lodging resistance analysis of the transgenic plants show that the
mutant oscngc10-2 has enhanced stem strength and lodging resistance; overexpression of OsCNGC10 reduces the stem wall thickness and
lignin content, and knockout of OsCNGC10 increases the stem
lignin content, which preliminarily indicates that OsCNGC10 negatively regulates the rice lodging resistance. The results of the
drought stress experiment in the
seedling stage show that the MDA accumulation speed in the OsCNGC10 gene-deficient plants is accelerated, and the plants cannot form sufficient free
proline; the free Pro content in the overexpression OsCNGC10 plants is greatly increased, and the MDA accumulation speed is relatively slow, which indicates that OsCNGC10 positively regulates the rice
seedling drought resistance.
