Description

Tobacco nitrate transporter NtNPF7.4, encoding gene thereof, gene editing vector and application
Technical Field
The invention relates to a tobacco nitrate transporter NtNPF7.4, a coding gene thereof, a gene editing vector and application thereof, belonging to the technical field of plant genetic engineering.
Background
Plants have two classes of nitrate transporters, NRT1/PRT and NRT2, where NRT1/PRT is again designated NPF. The NPF transport substrate reported so far is NO3 - Cl-, polypeptides, various hormones (IAA, ABA, GA, etc.), glucosinolates, etc. The plant NPF family generally consists of 8 subfamily genes. Studies have shown that NPF7.3, a member of the NPF7 subfamily, may be involved in K in addition to nitrate transport + The transport, atnpf7.3 mutant also had a lateral root development and leaf senescence phenotype. Furthermore, it is mentioned that NPF7.3 may also be involved in Cl-transport, but no definitive evidence has been available to date.
Chlorine is one of the essential nutrient elements for the growth and development of flue-cured tobacco, and too high and too low chlorine content of flue-cured tobacco can reduce the quality and yield of tobacco leaves. The chlorine content of tobacco leaves is generally related to the chlorine content of soil, so in areas where the chlorine content of soil is low, such as: the chlorine content of tobacco leaves in southwest area, southern Anhui province and Fujian province is relatively low. The general research shows that the chlorine content in the high-quality tobacco leaves is preferably 0.3-0.8%, but the chlorine content of most tobacco leaves in the tobacco region in China is lower than 0.3%, so that the quality of the tobacco leaves is affected to a certain extent (reference document: flue-cured tobacco chlorine content characteristic comparison research in main tobacco region in China. Guizhou agricultural science 2008,36 (1): 106-107). Analysis of regional characteristics and distribution conditions of chlorine content of flue-cured tobacco in main tobacco areas in China shows that the chlorine content of flue-cured tobacco in China is generally low, wherein high-chlorine flue-cured tobacco is mainly distributed in north (77.32%), low-chlorine flue-cured tobacco is mainly distributed in south (78.23%), in 2712 flue-cured tobacco samples investigated, the chlorine content of samples of 53.32% is lower than 0.30%, the chlorine content of samples of 43.10% is 0.30% -0.80%, and the chlorine content of samples of 3.43% is higher than 0.80% (reference: regional characteristic study of chlorine content of flue-cured tobacco in main tobacco areas in China, chinese soil and fertilizer, 2010 (2): 49-54). The application of the chlorine-containing fertilizer can increase the chlorine content of the soil, but the increase of the chlorine-containing fertilizer has close relation with the chlorine application amount, the rainfall and the water permeability of the soil, and the improper use of the chlorine-containing fertilizer can cause pollution of chlorine ions of the soil.
Along with the increasing maturity of molecular biotechnology and the achievement of chlorine nutrition molecular biology in other crops, research on the transport mechanism of chlorine, chloride ion channels, the effective genes of the tobacco leaf on chlorine absorption and the like from the molecular level on tobacco has important significance for solving the condition of low chlorine content of flue-cured tobacco in China.
