Description

Pear PbrSTONE gene and application thereof

Technical Field

The invention belongs to the field of plant genetic engineering, relates to a pear PbrSTONE gene and application thereof, and particularly relates to a PbrSTONE gene for regulating and controlling pear stone cell development, which is obtained by separating and cloning from a Dangshan pear.

Background

Pears are perennial woody plants of the genus Pyrus (Pyrus L.) of the family Rosaceae (Rosaceae) and the subfamily Persicae (Amygdaloideae), are the third largest fruit tree species in China, have long cultivation history and wide planting area (Tengyuan, 2017). China is used as a large export country of pears, and the cultivation area and the yield of pears are the first world in recent years. However, some traditional main cultivars in China, such as Dangshan pears, have high stone cell content, poor fruit quality and weak market competitiveness. The stone cells are the special characters in the pulp of the pear and are also important factors influencing the quality of the fruit. Therefore, the method is especially important for determining the content difference of stone cells and analyzing the forming mechanism of the stone cells and improving the quality of the pear fruits.

Pear stone cells are a type of short stone cells, and a plurality of stone cells are aggregated into stone cell masses in the pear fruit development process (Nii et al, 2008; Zhang et al, 2017). The size and number of stone cell mass in the pulp affects the fruit quality and thus the eating mouthfeel and processing quality (Choi et al, 2007; Wu et al, 2013; Brahem et al, 2017; Zhang et al, 2017). The sclerite develops from the parenchyma cell, and the sclerenchyma cell mainly comprises cellulose and lignin, and lignin deposition is an important factor for hardening the cell wall of the sclerite cell, so that the sclerite cell synthesis and lignin metabolism are closely related. The lignin of stone cells is mainly G-lignin and contains a small amount of S-lignin, but the G-lignin and S-lignin content of different pear varieties can be different (Cai et al, 2010; Jin et al, 2013).

Lignin, a polyphenol polymer, is deposited in the secondary cell walls of vascular plants, not only provides mechanical strength and hydrophobicity to plant vascular bundles, but also has the effect of preventing pathogenic bacteria from invading. In lignin-deficient Arabidopsis mutants, plants show cell wall collapse and lodging, which fully embodies the importance of lignin in the secondary wall (Zhong et al, 1998; Ruel et al, 2009). However, in the case of wood for papermaking, lignin is an important factor affecting paper quality and papermaking process, and a large amount of strong acid and alkali chemicals are required to remove lignin, which not only increases production cost, but also causes serious environmental pollution. In view of this, researchers have been expecting plants with less lignin content but without affecting their primary function by altering the synthetic pathway of lignin (Vanhole et al, 2012; ZHao, 2016).

Advantageous effects

In combination with the data of the whole gene association analysis, the invention discovers a novel gene (PbrSTONE).

A single PCR band product was generated.

After the PCR product was detected by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, DNA fragments were recovered using a small gel recovery kit (purchased from Haokang century, according to the instructions provided in the kit). The total volume of the double enzyme digestion system of the pCAMBIA1301 vector is 50. mu.L, which contains 10. mu.L of pCAMBIA1301 vector plasmid obtained by plasmid extraction, 5. mu.L of 10 XBuffer (purchased from NEB company), 1. mu.L of Xba I, 1. mu.L of BamH I and 33. mu.L of water. The resulting mixture was digested at 37 ℃ for 3 hours and then recovered. The restriction enzyme digested expression vector pCAMBIA1301 and PbrSTONE gene were ligated at 37 ℃ for 30 minutes using recombinase Exnase II (available from Vazyme). The total reaction volume was 20. mu.L, containing 5 XCE II Buffer 4. mu.L, Exnase II 2. mu.L, PCR-recovered product of PbrSTONE gene 2. mu.L, double digestion-recovered product of pCAMBIA1301 vector 6. mu.L and water 6. mu.L. Taking 10 mu L of the ligation product to transform escherichia coli competent DH5 alpha, screening positive clones in an LB solid plate containing 50mg/L kanamycin, extracting plasmids to perform enzyme digestion and PCR identification, and sending recombinant plasmid samples to a biological company for sequencing. Sequencing results show that the total length of the PbrSTONE gene is 819bp, the nucleotide sequence of the PbrSTONE gene is shown in SEQ ID NO.1, the PbrSTONE gene can encode protein with 272 amino acid residues, and the sequence of the PbrSTONE gene is shown in SEQ ID NO. 2. Phylogenetic tree analysis shows that homologous genes exist in PbrSTONE in other species, but the functions of the genes are not reported in relevant documents. We named the recombinant vector 35S-PbrSTONE-GFP and the map of the constructed vector is shown in FIG. 1. The recombinant vector was introduced into Agrobacterium GV3101 using a freeze-thaw method.

Example 2 analysis of spatiotemporal expression patterns of PbrSTONE Gene

'Dangshan crisp pear' different tissue samples were collected from the Kogyou orchard of Jiangsu province (2015). Total RNA was extracted by CTAB method (Porebski et al, 1997) and the quality of the extracted samples was checked by spectrophotometer and agarose gel. Mu.g of the total RNA extracted was used for reverse transcription using one-step gDNA removal and cDNA synthesis kit (Transgen, China), the method was as described in the specification. The primers used in the fluorescent quantitative PCR are gene specific primer pairs: SEQ ID No.5 and SEQ ID No. 6; GAPDH was used as an internal reference gene, and a fluorescent quantitation kit was purchased from Roche. The used instrument of Real-timesEPCR is Roche 480 quantitative PCR instrument, and the reaction system is as follows: 2 × SYBR GreenI Master Mix 10 μ L, upstream and downstream primers (10 μ M)0.4 μ L, 2 μ LcDNA, 7.2 μ LPCR grade water. The reaction condition is 95 ℃ denaturation for 5 min; pre-denaturation at 95 ℃ for 5s, annealing at 60 ℃ for 5s, and extension at 72 ℃ for 10s, and repeating 45 cycles; melting curves were analyzed at 65 ℃ to 95 ℃ with 1 ℃ increase every 5 s.

Studies have shown that there is a large amount of lignin synthesis in the early stages of pear fruit development and vascular tissues (Xue et al, 2019). qRT-PCR results of different pear tissues show that the expression level of PbrSTONE in the early stage of fruit development is obviously higher than that in the later stage; the expression level in the stem and anther was also significantly higher than in the leaf (FIG. 2 a). In conclusion, PbrSTONE was highly expressed in fruits, stems and anthers 21 to 49 days after flowering, suggesting that PbrSTONE expression, consistent with the timing and space of lignin deposition, is likely to be involved in lignin synthesis in stem and pulp stone cells and in anther dehiscence.

Example 3 transient transformation of Pear fruit and detection of Lignin content and Gene expression

(1) Instantaneous transformation of pear fruit

The method for injecting the agrobacterium containing the PbrSTONE over-expression vector into the Dangshan pear' about 35 days after flowers by an agrobacterium-mediated method comprises the following steps:

3. dripping the solution on the slice treated by hydrochloric acid, and dyeing for 5 minutes;

4. finally, the reaction was terminated by washing with a sufficient amount of water.

Phloroglucinol-hydrochloric acid staining shows that the lignin staining effect of the part excessively expressing PbrSTONE is obviously enhanced, and the part injected with pCAMBIA1301 vector has no obvious difference from the part not injected (figure 2 b).

(3) Injection site lignin content detection

The content of lignin in stone cells is expressed as a percentage of the measured value/weight of the sample used, with reference to the bromoacetyl method (Acker et al, 2013). There was no significant difference in the lignin content between the injected pCAMBIA1301 vector and the non-injected part, while the lignin content was significantly increased in the part overexpressing PbrSTONE (FIGS. 2 c-d).

(4) Detection of relative expression quantity of injection site PbrSTONE and lignin synthesis related gene

The system and procedure for RNA extraction, cDNA synthesis, and fluorescent quantitative PCR were as described in example 2. The site overexpressing PbrSTONE not only increased the expression level of PbrSTONE, but also significantly increased the expression levels of Pbr4CL1, Pbr4CL2, PbrC3H1, PbrCAD, PbrCSE, PbrLAC2, PbrLAC15 and PbrLAC18 (FIGS. 2 e-f). Taken together, these results indicate that overexpression of PbrSTONE promotes lignin synthesis in stone cells of pome fruits.

(2) Determination of lignin content and monomer content of transgenic arabidopsis thaliana

5 strains of each of the wild type and T3 generation transgenic lines were selected, 10cm long stems were collected from the lower part of the inflorescence stem, cut into 2mm long pieces, and the mixed samples were dried to constant weight. 5mg of the dried sample was taken to extract CWR for lignin analysis, the procedure was as follows: the samples were placed in 2mL centrifuge tubes and treated for 30 minutes each step, passed through water (98 ℃ C.), ethanol (76 ℃ C.), chloroform (59 ℃ C.), acetone (54 ℃ C.), and finally dried to constant weight. Bromoacetyl-soluble lignin content determination, reference (Acker et al, 2013). The lignin composition was determined by the thioacid analysis method, method reference (Lapierre et al, 1995). A derivative formed by the action of thioacid lysis of lignin is derivatized by trimethyl silane and then detected by GC-MS. The test was repeated four times, each time with the same amount of sample.

The lignin content in the inflorescence stems of the transgenic lines was determined to be significantly increased (fig. 3 b); and the content of the transgenic line G type monomer is obviously increased, but the content of the S type monomer is not obviously different (figure 3 c); at the same time, the number of cell layers between transgenic lines was significantly increased (fig. 3 d).

(3) Observation of Stem tissue Structure of transgenic Arabidopsis inflorescence

1 tissue section staining

The inflorescence stems of the wild type and transgenic Arabidopsis plants grown for eight weeks were taken 1cm from the bottom, embedded in 5% agarose gel and 100 μm thick sections were cut using a Leica VT1000S shaker.

Toluidine blue staining: staining the slices in 0.3% toluidine blue reagent for 30s, washing with deionized water, and observing;

and (3) Wiesner dyeing: the sections were placed in a Wiesner reagent [ 37% HCl: 3% phloroglucinol alcoholic solution ═ 1: 2 (v: v) for 1min, washing with deionized water and observing;

dyeing: and (3) placing the slices in 0.5% potassium permanganate aqueous solution for 2min, washing with deionized water, adding 3.7% HCl for washing twice, sucking the supernatant, adding concentrated ammonia water for 1min, directly taking out the slices, and observing.

The stained sections were observed using a Nikon Ni-U microscope.

2 Lignin autofluorescence Observation

The unstained section is observed by a Nikon Ti-E inverted fluorescence microscope, a diode laser emits 355/25nm laser, and the laser intensity, the amplification factor and the gain setting of a photomultiplier are kept consistent among different samples.

3 Transmission electron microscope

Fixing a sample which is the same as the paraffin section for 12 hours at 4 ℃ by using 2.5 percent glutaraldehyde stationary liquid, and quickly putting the sample into fresh 2.5 percent glutaraldehyde stationary liquid after taking the sample; the material is obtained by operating at low temperature of 0-4 deg.C, and the instruments and fixative solution for obtaining material are cooled; since the fixed solution has poor permeability, glutaraldehyde has a penetration depth of 0.5mm, and osmic acid has a penetration depth of 0.25mm, the sample size is about 1.5mm × 3mm, and the thickness is not more than 2 mm; for a material floating on the stationary liquid, it is necessary to completely immerse the material under the stationary liquid by air suction to sufficiently fix the material. Method reference (Whitehill et al, 2016). The thickness of the secondary cell wall of xylem cells was measured with ImageJ software.

Through paraffin section, lignin autofluorescence detection and transmission electron microscope detection, the morphology of xylem cells of the stem of transgenic arabidopsis is normal, but lignin is obviously accumulated, autofluorescence is strong, and secondary cell walls are thicker (fig. 3 e-p).
