Background
VIGS (Virus-induced gene silencing) is a Virus-induced post-transcriptional gene silencing technique. According to the technology, a recombinant virus vector with a target gene is introduced into a host plant by using a virus, and the endogenous gene of the plant is silenced after the virus is successfully infected, so that the phenotype of the host is changed, and the functional analysis of the target gene is further realized. The VIGS technology has the advantages of short time, quick response, simple operation and the like, can obtain gene silencing plants without genetic transformation, and becomes one of powerful technical means for researching gene functions. VIGS technology has been successfully applied to gene silencing in many plants. However, at present, a set of stably mature genetic transformation system has not been established for peach (Prunus persica), which seriously hinders the research on the gene function and the related mechanism of the species.

In 2017, Cui et al constructed a set of virus-mediated gene silencing vectors (pCaRNA1&2 and pCaRNA3) suitable for peaches by utilizing plum necrotic ringspot virus (PNRSV), and successfully induced silencing of peach endogenous genes. However, in the practical application process of the two sets of vectors, the application aspects of using peach leaves as materials and utilizing agrobacterium tumefaciens to mediate recombinant plasmid transfection and the like have the problems of low efficiency, instability and the like, and a system for efficiently inducing plant endogenous gene silencing in peach seedlings by utilizing the VIGS technology is urgently needed to be established.

As shown in figure 1, agarose gel electrophoresis detection shows that figure 1 shows that the PCR amplification product of the PpPDS gene segment has a clear band at about 1700bp, and after recovery, sequencing verification is carried out, and the PpPDS gene segment is compared with the sequence of the 1722bp segment of the PpPDS gene with an expected result by using DNANN software, so that the cloning success of the PpPDS gene segment is shown.
As shown in FIG. 2, after Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV3101 was transformed with the pCaRNA3-PpPDS recombinant vector, a plasmid of a bacterial solution of a positive clone was extracted. The pCaRNA3-PpPDS recombinant plasmid was amplified by PCR (primer 9 and primer 10). Through agarose gel electrophoresis detection, FIG. 2 shows that the band is about 375b p, which is in line with the expected target, and the construction of the pCaRNA3-PpPDS recombinant vector is proved to be successful. (primer 9: 5'-GCTTCCCTAACGGGGCATCC-3'; primer 10: 5'-AGGTCTTGGTTAGGGATTTG-3'.)
As shown in FIG. 3, when the peach seedling plants are infected by the leaf injection method, the phenotype of pCaRNA3-PpPDS is obviously different from that of pTRV2-PpPDS 25 days after infection. The phenotype of pCaRNA3-PpPDS shows large spots, and the new leaves always have albino phenotype, and the whole silent phenotype is obvious; the phenotype of pTRV2-PpPDS is small screw thread shape, only a few leaves show the phenotype, new leaves do not show the phenotype any more, and the overall effect of silencing is not obvious compared with pCaRNA 3-PpPDS.
As shown in fig. 4, the leaves from the lower morphological end to the upper morphological end of the peach seedling have different phenotypes after leaf injection. In the figure, the injection of leaves: representing injected leaves,. sup.: leaves representing the appearance of the phenotype, phenotypic upper leaves: representing leaves above phenotypic leaves where no phenotype is present. Note: the phenotypic leaves of pCaRNA3-PpPDS are all phenotypic leaves, so that the phenotypic leaves are not.
As shown in FIG. 5, in order to verify the effect of temperature on silencing efficiency, peach seedlings were cultured at 22 ℃ and 28 ℃ in this experiment. The results indicate that both pCaRNA3-PpPDS and pTRV2-PpPDS are affected by temperature. The silencing efficiency of pCaRNA3-PpPDS and pTRV2-PpPDS genes is 85 percent and 64 percent at 22 ℃; however, gene silencing efficiency decreased to 53% and 29% at 28 ℃ respectively. Higher temperatures significantly reduced VIGS silencing efficiency. Previous studies showed that (Wangmanghongzhi, 2005), the silencing efficiency of the gene was significantly affected by the size of the seedling age, and in order to determine the optimum size of the seedling age to obtain the maximum silencing efficiency, this experiment set the size of the seedling age to be 3 treatments of 5-6 fully expanded leaves, 7-8 fully expanded leaves, and 10-11 fully expanded leaves. The result shows that the gene silencing efficiency of pTRV2-PpPDS is obviously influenced by the seedling age and is respectively 64 percent, 24 percent and 0 percent; the gene silencing efficiency of pCaRNA3-PpPDS is high under 3 treatments, and is respectively 85%, 80% and 94%. Thus, the pCaRNA1&2 and pCaRNA3 vectors are more suitable than the pTRV1 and pTRV2 vectors for silencing endogenous genes in peach seedlings using agrobacterium-mediated VIGS technology.
As shown in FIG. 6, in order to verify the effect of different bacterial liquid concentrations on the silencing efficiency of pCaRNA3-PpPDS gene, OD was set in each experiment600=0.6,OD6001.0 and OD600Total 3 treatments were 1.4. The results show that 3 weeks after injection, the gene silencing efficiency is 61%, 55% and 88% respectively; 4 weeks after injection, the gene silencing efficiency is 85%, 95% and 92%, and there is no significant difference among the three.
As shown in figure 7, the peach seedling leaves are infected by adopting a leaf injection method. After 25 days of infection, the leaf, stem and root of pTRV2 empty vector plant and pTRV2-PpPDS plant were subjected to qRT-PCR analysis using pTRV2 empty vector plant as a control, 3 replicates were taken per treatment, and gene expression levels were analyzed using PpTEF2 (transformation efficiency factor 2) (Tong et al 2009) as an internal reference gene. The results show that compared with pTRV2 control, the expression levels of phenotypic upper leaves, phenotypic lower leaves, injection leaves, stems and roots of pTRV2-PpPDS plants are obviously reduced, which indicates that the albino phenotype of the pTRV2-PpPDS plants is caused by PpPDS gene silencing and the silencing effect is obvious.
As shown in FIG. 8, the peach seedling leaves are infected by the leaf injection method. After infection for 25 days, each part of the pCaRNA3 empty vector plant and the pCaRNA3-PpPDS plant was subjected to qRT-PCR analysis using pCaRNA3 empty vector plant as a control, and 3 replicates were taken for each treatment, and gene expression levels were analyzed using PpTEF2 (transformation efficiency 2) (Tong et al 2009) as an internal reference gene. The results show that the expression levels of phenotype leaves, phenotype lower leaves, injection leaves, stems and roots of the pCaRNA3-PpPDS plant are obviously reduced compared with that of the pCaRNA3 control, and prove that the albino phenotype of the pCaRNA3-PpPDS plant is caused by PpPDS gene silencing and the silencing effect is obvious.
Example 2
The silencing effect test was performed in the same manner as in example 1 using PpERF98 as the target gene.
As shown in FIG. 9, the peach seedling leaves were infected by the leaf injection method. After 25 days of infection, the pCaRNA3 empty vector plant was used as a control, and qRT-PCR analysis was performed on the pCaRNA3 empty vector plant and the pCaRNA3-PpERF98 plant. In this experiment 5 biological replicates were set up and designated pCaRNA3-PpERF98#1, pCaRNA3-PpERF98#2, pCaRNA3-PpERF98#3, pCaRNA3-PpERF98#4 and pCaRNA3-PpERF98#5, respectively. The expression level of the target gene PpERF98 was analyzed by qRT-PCR using PpTEF2 (transformation factor 2) (Tong et al 2009) as an internal reference gene. The results show that the expression level of the pCaRNA3-PpERF98 plants is obviously reduced compared with that of the pCaRNA3 control.
The sequence table of the related genes is as follows:
