Description

Small peptide ppe-miPEP408 for regulating photosynthesis of peach trees and application thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to a small peptide ppe-miPEP408 for regulating photosynthesis of peach trees and application thereof in the field of biotechnology.
Background
Peach fruit is one of the favorite fruits of people. In recent years, manufacturers have not reasonably cultivated the peaches because of the pursuing yield on one side, and the quality of the peaches is deteriorated. With the increase of economic level, the requirements of consumers on the quality of fruits are higher and higher, and the quality of fruits determines the price of the fruits. How to improve the fruit quality of peach becomes an important direction of peach fruit research. The substances determining the quality (sugar, acid, aroma, etc.) in the fruit are derived directly or indirectly from photosynthesis. Peach is a camptotheca acuminata, and the improvement of photosynthesis of peach trees can improve the quality of peach fruits as can be seen from various cultivation measures (fertilization measures, she Guobi, tree vigor and the like) at present.
The factors influencing photosynthesis of peach trees include an intrinsic factor and an extrinsic factor, and under the condition that the extrinsic factor is determined, the photosynthesis is regulated and controlled from the gene level, which is certainly an important way for improving the fruit quality, and is also a theoretical basis for high-light-efficiency breeding. The current results of the photosynthesis mechanisms derived from model plants can be seen: various protein complexes such as photosystem II (PSII), cytochrome b6f complex (Cyt b6 f), photosystem I (PSI) and ATP synthase (ATPase) are all components involved in regulating photosynthesis of plants. In addition, in model plants, many transcription factors and mirnas are now also found to be involved in photosynthesis, such as HY5, SPL7, miR408, and the like.
miRNA is an endogenous small molecule RNA, and participates in the growth and development process of plants by regulating and controlling target genes. The miR408 is a miRNA which is highly conserved in terrestrial plants, and a plurality of researches show that after miR408 is over-expressed, the stress resistance of the plants can be increased, photosynthesis of arabidopsis, rice and the like can be increased, and biomass is further increased. However, these studies have been conducted mainly on plants of the Arabidopsis, rice and other modes, but have been conducted only rarely on fruit trees. In recent studies, it has been found that the miRNA gene encoding miRNA is capable of producing mature miRNA, and that its primary transcript (pri-miRNA) can also encode a short peptide (miPEP) by increasing the abundance of its corresponding pri-miRNA (Laurebergues et al, 2015). In addition, the miPEP can also increase the expression level of the corresponding MIRNA gene by in vitro addition after artificial synthesis, thereby further playing a role. The discovery of mipp allows for simple methods of studying mirnas. However, at present, only a few mipps are found in a few plants such as arabidopsis, alfalfa and grape, but not yet in others. The miPEP can act at the synthesis site like a plant hormone or transported from the synthesis site to the action site and then take effect again; however, unlike hormones, the essence of the mipp is a protein, and excessive mipp can be degraded into amino acids, and can be absorbed and utilized by plants again, so that the environmental pollution is avoided. Therefore, the research on miRNA related to photosynthesis in fruit trees and the exploration on the corresponding miPEP are of great significance to the research on the development of regulators for improving the photosynthesis of fruit trees.

Example 2
The test material is a grafted peach tree grown for 5 years, the stock is wild peach, and the varieties are golden honey No.1 and late Huang Pan respectively.
Based on the expression levels of ppe-MIR408 in the individual sORF treatment groups in example 1, sORF that increased the expression level of ppe-MIR408 most was selected as sORF2-3, and its corresponding small peptide (named ppe-MIPEP408, small peptide sequence: MRCVQKPTRGKSSY, shown in SEQ ID NO. 3) was synthesized artificially.
When two varieties of peach fruits enter into a hard-stone period, the artificially synthesized small peptide ppe-miPEP408 is prepared into two concentrations of 0.2 mu M miPEP408 solution and 0.4 mu M miPEP408 solution by clean water, and the two concentrations are sprayed on peach trees in the evening or in the morning, and 4 strains are sprayed on each variety at each concentration. The spraying is carried out once a week until the peach fruits are ripe, and the spraying is carried out for about 3-4 times, and the fruit ripe is carried out in this example for 4 times. The two varieties are respectively compared with the Control (CK) that only clean water is sprayed without spraying the ppe-miPEP408.

The reaction is carried out in an ABI7500 PCR amplification instrument under the conditions of pre-denaturation at 95 ℃ for 10min, denaturation at 95 ℃ for 15s, annealing at 60 ℃ for 30s and 40 cycles, and finally dissolution profile analysis is carried out: 95℃15s,60℃1min,95℃15s,60℃15s.
The results show that the ppe-miPEP408 with two concentrations can increase the expression level of the ppe-MIR408 gene in two peach varieties and the expression level of the corresponding 3 target genes is obviously reduced (FIG. 6), and the results show that the ppe-miPEP408 sprayed in vitro can play a role.
As a result of examining the expression level of Plastocyanin (PC) in peach leaves, it was found that the expression level of PpPC in the ppe-miPEP408 treated group was significantly higher in the two peach varieties than in the control group (B of FIG. 7). And in the 0.2 mu M and 0.4 mu M ppe-miPEP408 treated groups, the expression level of the photosynthesis-related gene PpRubisco was significantly higher than that of the control group; in contrast, the amount of PpFD gene expressed in 0.2. Mu.M of ppe-miPEP408 treated `golden Honey No. 1` leaves was not significantly different from that in the control group, and the amount of PpFD expressed in 0.4. Mu.M of ppe-miPEP408 treated `golden Honey No. 1` leaves and late yellow flat leaves treated at both concentrations was significantly higher than that in the control group (C of FIG. 7). The results further demonstrate that in vitro applied ppe-mippe 408 can act to increase photosynthesis in peach leaves.
2. Fruit yield and quality
Harvesting mature fruits, and measuring the weight of single fruits and the content of soluble solids.
As a result, as shown in FIG. 8, it can be seen that the soluble solids content of the peach fruits of the two varieties is significantly increased, and the weight of the single fruit is also increased. The results show that the in vitro addition of ppe-mipp 408 also improved the yield and quality of peach fruit.
In conclusion, the ppe-MIR408 gene of peach can code a short peptide ppe-MIPEP408, and the short peptide can increase the expression quantity of the corresponding ppe-MIR408 gene, so that the net photosynthetic rate of peach trees is improved, and the quality of peach fruits is improved. The ppe-mipPEP 408 can be used to make bioregulators that enhance photosynthesis in peach trees.
