The application belongs to the field of
molecular biology, and particularly relates to application of OsDOF3
protein or its coding
gene in improving broad-spectrum
disease resistance and regulating agronomic traits of rice. The application constructs an OsDOF3 knockout
mutant and overexpression transgenic line in a susceptible rice background, and through
inoculation of various
pathogenic bacteria (including
Magnaporthe oryzae,
Rhizoctonia solani and
Xanthomonas oryzae), resistance
phenotype analysis is carried out, and it is confirmed that OsDOF3 participates in regulating the immune response pathway of rice to fungal diseases (rice blast and
sheath blight) and bacterial diseases (white leaf
blight). Meanwhile, it is found that after being driven by a strong
promoter ubi, the overexpression material of OsDOF3 is shorter than the
wild type plant, and OsDOF3 affects the
normal growth and development of rice while triggering the immune response of the
plant. The application provides important
gene resources and molecular theoretical basis for developing new varieties of broad-spectrum
disease-resistant rice.
