棉花黄萎病菌VdSge1基因的敲除与功能分析

为了明确棉花黄萎病菌大丽轮枝菌(Verticillium dahliae Kleb.)的VdSge1基因功能,本研究利用基因同源重组原理,通过构建敲除载体,对棉花黄萎病菌落叶型强致病力菌株V592的VdSge1基因进行了敲除,获得了4个目标基因敲除的突变体;以野生型菌株V592为对照,通过对敲除突变体生物学性状和致病性测定,结果表明,突变体的菌落生长速度、产孢量明显高于野生型,并且丧失对棉花的致病性。利用q RT-PCR对其他基因在突变体中的表达情况进行分析,结果表明,VdSge1基因敲除后,VMK1、VGB和VdGARP1的表达量随之下降,而VDH1和PevD1的表达却明显上升。由此说明,VdSge1基因与大丽轮枝菌的菌落生长速度、产孢量及致病性密切相关,并且可以影响其他一些基因的表达。

水稻突变群体的构建及功能基因组学

随着水稻基因组全序列的测定完成，功能基因组学已成为重点研究内容。功能基因组学主要研究生物有机体内各基因的生物学功能进而了解所有基因如何协调发挥作用完成一系列的生长发育过程。目前已经发展了多种分析鉴定基因功能的方法，其中最直接最有效的方法是构建饱和的基因突变群体，通过突变体分析鉴定基因功能。本文主要阐述了各种构建方法及其优缺点以及在功能基因分离鉴定上的应用。自发突变的频率极低，且自发突变基因的分离难度比较大，只能作为突变群体构建的辅助方法。利用EMS等化学诱变剂可以在短时间内构建大量点突变群体，并可用TILLING进行突变检测，但多位点的点突变使突变表型难以鉴定。由快中子等物理诱变也可以在短时间内构建大量缺失突变体，且可用Ddeteagene系统进行检测；但多基因缺失、多位点缺失和内含子缺失等使突变表型的分析可能无法进行。利用T—DNA、转座子和反转录转座子等构建插入突变体已经成为突变库构建的主要方法。T—DNA插入已成功应用于水稻大规模突变体的构建，但只限于转基因效率较高的品种；T—DNA在基因组中整合的复杂性以及转基因过程中由组织培养等引发的突变等，增加了突变体表型和分子分析的难度。Tos17是目前应用最为成功的反转录转座子，但多拷贝的插入使突变体的表型鉴定和分子鉴定较为困难，因为只有10％左右的突变性状是由Tos17插入引起的。理论上，Ac／Ds双因子系统是目前最理想的水稻插入突变库构建体系，Ds的单拷贝插入，大大方便了突变体的表型分析和分子鉴定；Ds的回复突变，可以验证突变表型是否由Ds插入引起；但在血转座酶驱动下Ds可能发生的多次跳动所形成的痕迹(footprint)也可能影响突变表型的分析。RNAi可以有效地使目标基因沉默，但并不是所有基因均可被RNAi沉默；对多因一效基因或同源性较高的基因家族，RNAi会同时作用这些基因，沉默表型很难鉴定。可见，每一种方法都有各自的优缺点，但不同的方法是可以互补的，通过各种方法是能够构建成理想的水稻突变库的。     

The integration and insertion site of GbVe1 gene in the genome of transgenic cotton (Gossypium hirsutum)

[Objective] The aim of this study was to obtain the flanking sequences of T-DNA in the transgenic cotton containing a GbVe1 over-expression cassette. [Method] The T-DNA insertion copy number in the transgenic GbVe1 cotton was analyzed by southern blot. Flanking sequences of the transgenic lines with putative single T-DNA insertion copy were obtained using high-efficiency Thermal asymmetric interlaced polymerase chain reaction (hiTAIL-PCR). The T-DNA insertion sites were further confirmed by PCR with specific primers. [Result] RB-flanking sequences (119-1 018 bp) and LB-flanking sequences (243-516 bp) were obtained from three transgenic lines with low copy number of T-DNA insertion. The AT content was more than 63% in these flanking sequences. A same single insertion site in the intron of Gohir.D01G157600.1 was found in the two transgenic lines 7/100826-152 and 12/100826-393, while two separated insertion sites, one also in the intron of Gohir.-D01G157600.1 and the other in the intergenic region of A12 chromosome, were found in the transgenic line 1/w-ch14. A deletion of 21 bp was found in the insertion site in the intron of Gohir.D01G157600.1. The T-DNA insertion in the intron of Gohir.D01G157600.1 was further confirmed by the specific PCR. [Conclusion] The flanking sequences of T-DNA in the transgenic GbVe1 cotton were obtained and the specific transformation event in the intron of Gohir.D01G157600.1 was further confirmed by PCR.     

Analysis of Cotton Secondary Metabolites under the Interaction between Verticillium dahliae and Upland Cotton

[Objective] The aim of this study is to investigate the cotton differential metabolites in the interaction between Verticillium dahliae and cotton plant, and to explore new clues for the further study on the defense mechanism of cotton against V. dahliae. [Method] To obtain the cotton root, stem and leaf samples of the pathogen treated and healthy controls, the upland cotton cultivar CCRI 24 was selected as tested cotton material in this paper, and inoculated with V. dahliae conidia or sterile water by injuring root at the 2-true-leaf stage. The 70% (volume fraction) methanol extracts of these samples were separated and detected by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-MS), and the metabolite data were obtained by the online XCMS software. Through multivariate statistics and student’s t-test, the differential metabolites were investigated. The types of metabolites were putatively identified based on the comparison of the experimental molecular mass and the monoisotopic accurate molecular mass of cotton metabolites. [Result] The efficiency of negative ion mode was higher than that of positive ion detection mode in the cotton metabolites in UPLC-ESI-MS analysis. 576 ions mainly distributed in cotton root were found in the cotton seedling tissues including root, stem and leaf, which were the distinguished differential metabolites between V. dahliae treatment and healthy control. Among them, 77 ions were identified as sesquiterpenoids, diterpenoids, flavonoids, carbohydrates, aliphatics and phenols. In addition to sesquiterpenes, 17 compounds, including caffeic acid, astragalin, isoastragalin, dillenetin, ent-catechin, gossypetin 8-rhamnoside, gossypicyanin, herbacetin 7-glucoside, leucocyanidin, quercetin 3'-glucoside, quercetin 3-glucoside, quercetin 7-glycosides, α,2',3,3',4,4',6-heptahydroxychalcone 2'-glucoside, melibiose, sucrose, sucrose 6-phosphate and 1-tetratriacontanol, had not been reported in the literatures on the interaction between V. dahliae and cotton, which may be the novel pathogenesis-related metabolites on cotton Verticillium wilt. [Conclusion] The putative pathogenesis-related metabolites of cotton Verticillium wilt may play an important role in the interaction of cotton defense against V. dahliae, which provides an important clue for exploring the new resistant mechanism of cotton to Verticillium wilt.
