5-氮胞苷介导的转基因crylAb的阶段复活及其对水稻的生物学效应

用不同浓度的5-氮胞苷溶液配合不同时间处理了发生在转录水平的转基因cry1Ab沉默水稻。结果表明，5-氮胞苷处理能使8%～30%转基因水稻植株的转基因cry1Ab恢复表达活性，复活转基因表达的Cry1Ab蛋白含量最高可达0.147%，45mg/L5-氮胞苷处理1d可使转基因cry1Ab的复活率及Cry1Ab蛋白含量达最高。同时，5-氮胞苷处理使转基因水稻植株出现矮化，分蘖数、单株粒重下降，穗长减小及开花期延迟等发育异常现象。5-氮胞苷作为一种弱诱变剂在克服转基因沉默及创造具优良农艺性状的转基因植物中具有一定的应用价值。     

转Bt基因水稻Cry1Ab杀虫蛋白在水稻土中的降解

室内研究了转 Bt基因水稻克螟稻 2号和华池B6 叶片中的Cry1Ab杀虫蛋白在稻田水稻土中的降解动态。分别将克螟稻 2号的粉碎叶片和华池B6 的整张叶片埋入 3种土壤 (即老黄筋泥田、青紫泥田和黄松田 )中 ,此后每隔 6～ 10d测定土壤或叶片中的Cry1Ab含量。克螟稻 2号粉碎叶片中的Cry1Ab均以处理后的前 36d,尤其是前 6d的降解较快 ,其中在青紫泥田中最快 ,黄松田中最慢。在处理后 6～ 36d内 ,不同土壤中的Cry1Ab残留量有显著差异 ,黄松田中的明显最高 ,老黄筋泥田中的次之 ,青紫泥田中的为最低 ;此后土壤间的残留量差异逐渐缩小 ,至处理后 78d差异已不明显。土壤淹水可显著加快华池B6 叶片中Cry1Ab的降解 ,且淹水后其降解动态在不同土壤之间十分相似 ;淹水对Cry1Ab降解的促进作用仅发生在前 12d之内 ,此后多数时间内残留量在淹水与非淹水处理间无显著差异。建立了各处理中Cry1Ab降解的动力学指数方程 ,相应地得出了其降解的半衰期。还讨论了土壤有机质和微生物等因子对土壤中Cry1Ab降解的影响。

Evaluation of Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) rice varieties against stem borer (Chilo suppressalis)

Three transgenic rice varieties namely Khazar, Neda and Nemat, all containing a cry1Ab gene, were evaluated through PCR analysis and field examinations for their resistance at natural infestation of insect pests during 2007. The results showed that all transgenic varieties produced 1.2 kb PCR product derived from application of cry1Ab gene. In field conditions, transgenic varieties exhibited high levels of resistance against natural infestation of stem borer and the damaged plants based on dead heart or white heat for them were less than 1%. Moreover, in stem-cut bioassay 100% of released larvae died within four days after infestation. These results demonstrate that expression of cry1Ab gene in the genome of transgenic varieties provided season-long protection from the natural infestation of lepidopteran insects.

Allelic Analysis for bar Gene from Different Rice Transformation Events

Abstract

Mechanism(s) of gene transformation and integration in rice (Oryza sauva L.) is/are not currently well understood. This research was conducted to determine whether a transgene is inserted into the rice genome specifically or randomly. Seven homozygous transgenic Taipei (T) 309 and Nipponbare plants with the bar transgene from different rice transformation events were crossed. The segregation of F2 and F3 populations from a total of 21 crosses was studied in a greenhouse and field to determine if the genes were allelic or non-allelic. Five genomic locations appeared to be involved among the seven transgenic plants. An additional 20 homozygous transgenic T309 plants, with the bar transgene from different transformation events, were crossed reciprocally with the previous seven plants. One hundred and fifteen crosses made during 1999 and 2000 were analyzed for allelism. In some combinations, the genes were allelic, but most of them were non-allelic, with two or more pairs of genes being expressed. Twenty loci among the 27 transgenic plants were involved and some plants had several inserted genes expressed. Genes in nine out of 27 transformed plants were allelic. We concluded that the functional foreign (bar) gene was restrictively/preferentially inserted into the rice genome in some cases and was not completely randomly inserted and expressed in the rice genome. If the mechanism(s) for preferential insertion were identified, rice researchers could possibly control insertion sites of transgenes to optimize gene expression.     

Development of Bt transgenic potatoes for effective control of potato tuber moth by using cry1Ab gene regulated by GBSS promoter

Transgenic of Indian potato cultivar Kufri Badshah expressing synthetic, modified cry1Ab gene were developed against potato tuber moth (Phthorimaea opercullela Z.) a destructive pest. The cry1Ab gene was in spatial and temporal expression under the control of tuber-specific GBSSi promoter. The transformation vector pBinCG1 was developed harbouring transgene expression cassette comprising cry1Ab gene under the control of potato GBSSi promoter, castor bean catalase intron (5′UTR) and OCS termination signals. Selected kanamycin-resistant putative transformed potato lines were evaluated by positive PCR amplification of 713 bp, 1206 bp and 700 bp with npt II, GBSSi promoter and cry1Ab gene specific primers, respectively. Gene integration in transformed potato plants was elucidated through Southern hybridization and in planta transgene expression analysis. Transgene expression was highest in stolons, followed by tubers matured leaves and young leaves. Insect bioassay of stored transgenic tubers resulted in significant retardation and mortality in neonate tuber moth larvae. RT-PCR and northern hybridization confirmed stable expression in stored tubers. These transgenic lines; thus can represent an effective resistance management strategy which can significantly reduce the selection pressure on target and non-target insect pests to a threshold level.     

转cry1Ac和CpTI双基因抗虫水稻对二化螟和大螟的致死效应及田间螟虫构成的影响

 就转cry1Ac＋CpTI双基因抗虫水稻不同生育期对二化螟Chilo suppressalis和大螟Sesamia inferens的室内致死特性及田间螟虫的构成进行了研究。室内测定结果表明，不同生育期转基因水稻对二化螟、大螟都表现明显的致死效应，但水稻生长后期的致死效果降低。转基因水稻对大螟的致死效应显著弱于对二化螟的，其中，二化螟除在齐穗期和成熟期有少量幼虫（0.5%~6.4%）存活到第4天外，其余均在第4天死亡；大螟在两种转基因水稻上的存活率高于二化螟，且少量个体（<1.6%）还能化蛹、羽化，但化蛹率和羽化率均明显低于在非转基因对照上的。早、晚两季水稻的田间调查结果表明，转基因水稻上两种螟虫虫口数量均显著低于相应的非转基因对照品种，转基因水稻上二化螟虫口减退率>99％；大螟虫口减退率相对较低，早、晚稻上有所不同，其中早稻 >93％，晚稻仅44％～64％。转基因水稻上残存螟虫中，大螟所占比例明显上升，推测转基因水稻对两种螟虫致死效应差异可能是其主要原因。
