Definitions

  • the invention relates to novel DNA constructs, plant cells containing these constructs and plants derived therefrom, as well as seeds obtained from said plants.
  • it involves the use of antisense nucleic acid technology to control gene expression in plants.
  • tissue specific promoters the control of gene expression can be directed to particular tissues of the plant.
  • the invention provides further, a process for obtaining plants which do not exhibit enzymatic browning of disrupted tissues.
  • Browning and discolouration causes substantial losses in a wide range of fresh and processed fruits and vegetables.
  • internal bruising also called black spot, is a physiological response of potato tubers to tissue compaction and is one of the most important problems of the potato industry.
  • large amounts of the potato production are valueless for direct consumption or processing due to browning of the tubers.
  • the enzyme polyphenol oxidase (PPO) catalyses the first two oxidation reactions of the pathway and converts monophenols (such as tyrosine) and ortho-diphenols (such as catechol) to ortho-quinones (such as dihydroxiphenylalanine-quinone) .
  • Autocatalytic chemical oxidation reactions convert ortho-quinones into melanin via several reactive quinone intermediates.
  • plant polyphenol oxidases has not been elucidated, several possible roles of the enzyme have been postulated. These include participation in electron transport in photosynthesis and participation in the defence mechanisms of the plant against insect attack or infections. It is believed that PPO is not involved in the synthesis of phenolic compounds in healthy, intact cells.
  • Plant PPO enzymes are nuclear-encoded copper metalloproteins localised in membranes of plastids. In potato tubers, PPO has been localised in the rudimentary thylacoid membranes of amyloplasts. The sub-cellular location separates the enzyme from its substrate which is primarily found in the cell vacuole. However, in disrupted cells the enzyme is mixed with substrate leading to oxidation of phenolic compounds by PPO enzyme.
  • bruising resistance refers to resistance against browning and discolouration upon disruption of plant cells.
  • bruising resistance can be obtained through interfering in the biosynthetic pathway of melanin production by the expression of an antisense PPO gene. More particularly, the production of polyphenol oxidase can be reduced in specific tissues through tissue specific expression of said antisense PPO gene. Since the expression of antisense PPO may perturb one or more of the postulated functions of PPO, especially in aerial parts of the plant, limitation of expression to tubers, by implementation of appropriate tuber specific promoters, is preferred. Furthermore, we have found that polyphenol oxidases are encoded by a family of genes comprising at least 5 members.
  • the invention is based on the application of antisense nucleic acid technology. Although the mechanism of antisense is not elucidated, it is believed that the inhibition of the expression of the target gene is obtained either through the formation of a complex of the antisense RNA and the endogenous RNA which are complementary, preventing the translation, or through the formation of a complex structure with the DNA sequence, preventing the transcription.
  • the invention provides a method for producing bruising resistant plants showing a reduced PPO enzyme activity and which also have been shown to have a significantly reduced browning phenotype in the field.
  • the invention can be used to control bruising upon disruption of tuber, vegetable, or fruit tissues in which the browning is the result of PPO enzyme activity in or around the damaged plant tissue. It is understood that the invention is not restricted to potatoes but that it can also be used for the reduction of browning upon physical tissue disruption in other plants like leaf vegetables, i.e. lettuce, chicory or fruits, where the browning is the result of the expression of genes encoding PPO.
  • the present invention provides DNA constructs comprising i) a promoter functional in plants, ii) a DNA sequence corresponding to an antisense polyphenol oxidase gene or part thereof, or a DNA sequence homologous thereto and iii) a terminator functional in plants.
  • antisense polyphenol oxidase gene refers to a double stranded DNA sequence which sequence corresponds to or is homologous with the endogenous gene encoding PPO or part thereof, but which has a reversed orientation with respect to the said PPO gene. In a antisense DNA sequence the coding strand becomes the template strand and vice versa.
  • homologous sequence refers to a sequence in which the average nucleotide sequence homology with the contiguous gene is at least 65 %.
  • DNA sequence refers to a double stranded DNA sequence which can be expressed in plant cells if said sequence is under the expression control of a promoter functional in plants and having a terminator functional in plants.
  • promoter used herein refers to a transcription regulation region upstream from the coding sequence containing the regulatory sequences required for the transcription of the adjacent coding sequence and includes the 5' non-translated region or so called leader sequence of mRNA.
  • the promoters used in DNA constructs according to the invention have to be functional in plant cells.
  • a further aspect of the invention comprises DNA constructs in which the promoter is a tissue specific promoter.
  • a tissue specific promoter directs the transcription of the adjacent sequence in specific tissues of the plants.

  • potato tuber specific promoters like the promoter of the Class I Patatin gene or preferably the granule bound starch synthase gene.
  • terminator refers to a region downstream of the coding sequence which directs the termination of the transcription, also called the 3' non-translated region, which includes the poly-adenylation signal. Terminator sequence functional in plants are well known and described in the literature.
  • the DNA sequence according to the invention comprises at least 25 nucleotides.
  • a suitable length of the DNA sequence comprises 100 to 1000, up to 2000, nucleotides.
  • the DNA sequence comprises the entire coding sequence of the endogenous PPO gene, or a sequence homologous thereto, in inverted orientation.

  • the invention also provides vectors comprising the DNA construct according to the invention.
  • the invention also includes plant cells comprising DNA constructs according to the invention, plants derived therefrom and seeds of such plants.
  • Transformed plants can be obtained using standard transformation techniques like Ti-plasmid mediated transformation, direct transformation methods as particle bombardment and the like.
  • the preferred transformation technique to be used depends on the plant tissue and is known to the person skilled in the art.
  • Browning of potato tubers upon physical damage can be reduced when potato plants are transformed by co-cultivation with Aqrobacterium tumefaciens. comprising the DNA construct according to the invention, using internode explants and following standard protocols.

  • the use of the tuber specific promoters preceding the DNA sequences according to the invention results in a reduction of PPO expression in the tuber but does not significantly effect the expression of PPO genes in other tissues of the plant.
  • tuber cDNA clone bank was made. Screening this bank with a probe corresponding to the sequence of a leaf PPO gene (Shahar T. , Hening N. , et al., The Plant Cell, 4, 135-147) or part thereof, resulted in the isolation of several different tuber specific PPO genes. At least five different genes are expressed in the potato tuber.
  • the expression of all PPO genes expressed in the tuber should be substantially reduced. Depending on the potato cultivar used the expression should be reduced 5 to 50 fold.
  • tubers according to the invention in which no PPO enzyme activity could be measured, using detection protocols as described hereafter, indicating that the expression of the occurring PPO genes has been inhibited in these transgenic plants.

  • These tubers were derived from plants transformed with antisense constructs according to the invention. Consequently the invention provides DNA constructs which causes at least a reduction of the expression of the entire PPO gene family.
  • This multi-gene inhibition can be obtained using one antisense sequence homologous to any DNA sequence coding for PPO.
  • at least a reduction of PPO expression can be achieved regardless of whether tuber or leaf genes were used for the construction of the antisense PPO constructs.
  • the antisense sequence does not have to correspond to the entire length of the coding sequence but also that partial sequences with a length of about 1200 nucleotides starting from the 5* end and including 800 nucleotides of the coding sequence, in antisense orientation, reduces the expression of the PPO genes in the tuber.
  • the tubers showing a reduced PPO activity are less susceptible to bruising.

  • Particular criteria for the choice of a prefered tuber specific promoter which directs tuber specific expression may be summarised as follows: Expression of the antisense gene should temporally precede or at least coincide with the expression of the endogenous PPO genes. In a preferred embodiment of the invention expression of the antisense gene should be in the same tissue location as the endogenous gene. Furthermore, levels of expression should be at an appropriate level to obtain the antisense effect.
  • This invention can be used to control bruising upon tissue disruption of tuber, vegetable or fruit tissue in which the browning is the result of PPO enzyme activity in or around the damaged plant tissue, due to cell damage.
