Description

基于RNAi的草地贪夜蛾防治方法RNAi-based control method for Spodoptera Frugiperda

技术领域Technical field

本发明涉及基因技术技术领域,具体而言,涉及一种基于RNAi的草地贪夜蛾防治方法。The present invention relates to the technical field of gene technology, and specifically to an RNAi-based control method for Spodoptera frugiperda.

背景技术Background technique

草地贪夜蛾(Spodoptera frugiperda)是一种杂食性农业害虫,取食350多种植物,分布范围广,适应能力极强,对农业生产造成了严重危害。化学农药在防治农业有害生物的过程中发挥着重要的作用,但因杀虫剂的盲用、滥用等不合理操作,使有害生物产生耐药性的同时,也对粮食安全、生态环境及生物多样性等产生了负面影响。目前,为了应对上述问题,除了大力推广有害生物综合防治(IPM)的相关措施之外,主要依赖于不断研发安全高效且具有新型作用机制的绿色农药。随着对RNAi现象及机制的深入研究,RNAi技术已渐渐走入农业害虫防治以及新型农药开发等领域,相较于传统化学农药,RNAi具有更明确的作用靶标和作用机制,对哺乳动物等非靶标生物安全,且不存在残留问题,符合当今社会对于农产品质量安全和生态安全的要求,是极具潜力的新型绿色害虫防治策略。核酸农药借助碱基序列的互补配对原则实现与靶标的相互作用,最终从mRNA水平阻断靶标蛋白产生的源头,进而表现出与小分子抑制剂类似的调节效果,成为一类新型的转录后基因沉默调控工具。同时,因大部分害虫与植物具有完善的RNAi系统,RNAi在这些生物群体中介导的基因沉默信号会发生级联放大,最终导致该靶标基因的不表达从而影响生物生长发育。核酸农药是以昆虫生长发育必需基因为靶标,通过沉默关键基因以实现致死级的杀虫效果,具有剂量低、高效和可持续的特点。近年来,RNAi目前在实验室条件下已经成功应用于半翅目(Hemiptera)、鳞翅目(Lepidoptera)、鞘翅目(Coleoptera)、双翅目(Diptera)以及直翅目(Orthoptera)等种类的害虫中。U6启动子是一类能够介导siRNA表达的启动子,由RNA聚合酶III来进行识别和转录。该类型的启动子在合适的条件下可以驱动shRNA在表达载体内合成大量的siRNA,进而沉默目的基因。昆虫杆状病毒具有专一性,仅感染节肢动物。可侵入昆虫体内,并且在昆虫的细胞核内进行复制和转录,由于其基因可以与外源基因相连接并且能很好的融合,使其成为理想的载体。将U6启动子加shRNA的siRNA表达体系构建至昆虫杆状病毒基因组中在病毒增殖过程中可以持续产生siRNA,从而实现对目的基因的持续性干扰。将杆状病毒与RNAi相结合的方式研发的新型生物农药,即规避了传统核酸农药存在的成本高、易降解、不持续等弊端问题,也能够加快病毒侵染寄主后死亡的速度,且由于杆状病毒能够可在害虫种群之间进行传染,并能够遗传给下一代幼虫,使其达到一次施用长久有效的目的,符合当今社会对于农产品质量安全和生态安全的要求,因此是潜在的新型绿色植保产品。Spodoptera frugiperda is an omnivorous agricultural pest that feeds on more than 350 species of plants. It has a wide distribution range and strong adaptability, causing serious harm to agricultural production. Chemical pesticides play an important role in the prevention and control of agricultural pests. However, due to the blind use and abuse of pesticides and other irrational practices, harmful organisms develop drug resistance, which also affects food security, the ecological environment and biological processes. Diversity, etc. have had a negative impact. At present, in order to deal with the above problems, in addition to vigorously promoting the relevant measures of integrated pest management (IPM), it mainly relies on the continuous development of safe, efficient and green pesticides with new mechanisms of action. With in-depth research on the phenomenon and mechanism of RNAi, RNAi technology has gradually entered the fields of agricultural pest control and new pesticide development. Compared with traditional chemical pesticides, RNAi has clearer targets and mechanisms of action. The target biomass is safe and there are no residue problems. It meets the requirements of today's society for the quality and safety of agricultural products and ecological safety. It is a new green pest control strategy with great potential. Nucleic acid pesticides rely on the principle of complementary pairing of base sequences to interact with targets, ultimately blocking the source of target protein production at the mRNA level, and then exhibiting regulatory effects similar to small molecule inhibitors, becoming a new type of post-transcriptional gene Silence control tool. At the same time, because most pests and plants have complete RNAi systems, the gene silencing signals mediated by RNAi in these biological groups will cascade amplify, eventually leading to the non-expression of the target gene and affecting the growth and development of organisms. Nucleic acid pesticides target genes essential for insect growth and development and achieve lethal insecticidal effects by silencing key genes. They are characterized by low dosage, high efficiency and sustainability. In recent years, RNAi has been successfully used in Hemiptera, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera, Orthoptera and other species under laboratory conditions. among pests. The U6 promoter is a type of promoter that can mediate siRNA expression and is recognized and transcribed by RNA polymerase III. This type of promoter can drive shRNA to synthesize a large amount of siRNA in the expression vector under appropriate conditions, thereby silencing the target gene. Insect baculoviruses are specific and only infect arthropods. It can invade the body of insects and be replicated and transcribed in the nucleus of the insect. Because its genes can be connected to foreign genes and can be well fused, it becomes an ideal vector. The siRNA expression system of U6 promoter plus shRNA is constructed into the genome of insect baculovirus, which can continuously produce siRNA during the virus proliferation process, thereby achieving continuous interference with the target gene. The new biopesticide developed by combining baculovirus and RNAi not only avoids the disadvantages of traditional nucleic acid pesticides such as high cost, easy degradation, and non-sustainability, but also can speed up the death of the virus after infecting the host, and because Baculovirus can be transmitted between pest populations and can be passed on to the next generation of larvae, making it effective for a long time after one application. It meets the requirements of today's society for the quality and safety of agricultural products and ecological safety, so it is a potential new green Plant protection products.

现有的RNAi作用方式主要通过注射、饲喂、喷洒以及浸泡等体外施用核酸分子的方式进行害虫防治。但常规dsRNA存在易降解、成本高、不持续等问题,不适合大面积推广应用。杆状病毒存在如杀虫速度慢,不能及时得到明显的效果等不足,这些不足导致多数杆状病毒杀虫剂难以大面积推广。The existing modes of action of RNAi mainly control pests through the in vitro application of nucleic acid molecules such as injection, feeding, spraying and soaking. However, conventional dsRNA has problems such as easy degradation, high cost, and non-sustainability, and is not suitable for large-scale promotion and application. Baculovirus has shortcomings such as slow insecticide speed and inability to obtain obvious effects in time. These shortcomings make it difficult for most baculovirus insecticides to be promoted on a large scale.

RNA is processed by specific enzymes). The first strand and the second strand are complementary and jointly form an RNA dimer, and the sequence of the first strand is the same as the target sequence in the Spodoptera frugiperda V-ATPaseA/B gene, or is identical to the target sequence.

RNA干扰(RNAinterference,RNAi)是指内源性或外源性双链RNA(dsRNA)介导的细胞内mRNA发生特异性降解,从而导致靶基因的表达沉默,产生相应的功能表型缺失的现象。RNA interference (RNAi) refers to the specific degradation of intracellular mRNA mediated by endogenous or exogenous double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), resulting in the expression silencing of target genes and the corresponding loss of functional phenotypes. .

在本发明中,“互补”是指在严格条件下能够进行杂交。“杂交条件”根据测量杂交时所用条件的“严紧性”程度来分类。严紧性程度可以以例如核酸结合复合物或探针的解链温度(Tm)为依据。例如,“最大严紧性”典型地发生在约Tm-5℃(低于探针Tm 5℃);“高等严紧性”发生在Tm以下约5℃~10℃;“中等严紧性”发生在探针Tm以下约10℃~20℃;“低严紧性”发生在Tm以下约20℃~5℃。作为替代,或者进一步地,杂交条件可以以杂交的盐或离子强度条件和/或一或多次的严紧性洗涤为依据。例如,6×SSC=极低严紧性;3×SSC=低至中等严紧性;1×SSC=中等严紧性;0.5×SSC=高等严紧性。从功能上说,可以采用最大严紧性条件确定与杂交探针严紧同一或近严紧同一的核酸序列;而采用高等严紧性条件确定与该探针有约80%或更多序列同一性的核酸序列。In the present invention, "complementary" means capable of hybridizing under stringent conditions. "Hybridization conditions" are classified according to the degree of "stringency" of the conditions used in measuring hybridization. The degree of stringency may be based, for example, on the melting temperature (Tm) of the nucleic acid binding complex or probe. For example, “maximum stringency” typically occurs at about Tm-5°C (5°C below the probe Tm); “high stringency” occurs at about 5°C to 10°C below the Tm; and “medium stringency” occurs at about 5°C to 10°C below the probe Tm. The needle Tm is about 10°C to 20°C; "low stringency" occurs at about 20°C to 5°C below the Tm. Alternatively, or in addition, hybridization conditions may be based on salt or ionic strength conditions of hybridization and/or one or more stringency washes. For example, 6×SSC = very low stringency; 3×SSC = low to medium stringency; 1×SSC = medium stringency; 0.5×SSC = high stringency. Functionally speaking, maximum stringency conditions can be used to determine nucleic acid sequences that are strictly identical or nearly identical to the hybridization probe; high stringency conditions can be used to determine nucleic acid sequences that have about 80% or more sequence identity with the probe. .

对于要求高选择性的应用,典型地期望采用相对严紧的条件来形成杂交体,例如,选择相对低的盐和/或高温度条件。Sambrook等(Sambrook,J.等(1989)分子克隆,实验室手册,Cold Spring Harbor Press,Plainview,N.Y.)提供了包括中等严紧性和高等严紧性在内的杂交条件。For applications requiring high selectivity, it is typically desirable to employ relatively stringent conditions for hybrid formation, for example, selecting relatively low salt and/or high temperature conditions. Hybridization conditions including medium stringency and high stringency are provided by Sambrook et al. (Sambrook, J. et al. (1989) Molecular Cloning, Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Press, Plainview, N.Y.).

为便于说明,用于检测本发明的多核苷酸与其它多核苷酸杂交的合适的中度严紧条件包括:用5×SSC、0.5%SDS、1.0mM EDTA(pH8.0)溶液预洗;在50-65℃下在5×SSC中杂交过夜;随后用含0.1%SDS的2×、0.5×和0.2×SSC在65℃下各洗涤两次20分钟。本领域技术人员应当理解,能容易地操作杂交严紧性,如改变杂交溶液的含盐量和/或杂交温度。例如,在另一个实施方案中,合适的高度严紧杂交条件包括上述条件,不同之处在于杂交温度升高到例如60℃~65℃或65℃~70℃。For convenience of explanation, suitable moderately stringent conditions for detecting the hybridization of the polynucleotide of the present invention with other polynucleotides include: pre-washing with 5×SSC, 0.5% SDS, 1.0mM EDTA (pH8.0) solution; Hybridize overnight at 50-65°C in 5x SSC; then wash twice with 2x, 0.5x and 0.2x SSC containing 0.1% SDS for 20 min each at 65°C. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that hybridization stringency can be readily manipulated, such as by changing the salt content of the hybridization solution and/or the hybridization temperature. For example, in another embodiment, suitable highly stringent hybridization conditions include the conditions described above, except that the hybridization temperature is increased to, for example, 60°C to 65°C or 65°C to 70°C.

进一步地,所述shRNA的茎环结构的序列可为本领域的常规选择,例如选自以下任一种序列:UUCAAGAGA、AUG、CCC、UUCG、CCACC、CUCGAG、AAGCUU和CCACACC。Furthermore, the sequence of the stem-loop structure of the shRNA can be conventionally selected in the art, for example, selected from any one of the following sequences: UUCAAGAGA, AUG, CCC, UUCG, CCACC, CUCGAG, AAGCUU and CCACACC.
