Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a promoter sequence which is specific for pollen, to constructs and transgenic plant cells and plants comprising the promoter as well as to methods of transforming pollen and controlling fertility in plants using this promoter.
  • cross-breeding represents the traditional approach.
  • Various techniques for producing male sterility are known and have been proposed in the art. One method involves removal of the anthers or tassels of the female parent plant, either manually or mechanically. This plant may then only be fertilised by pollen from the male parent and therefore its progeny will be hybrid.
  • WO 90/08830 describes the induction of male sterility in a plant by a cascade of gene sequences which express a protein which disrupts pollen biosynthesis.
  • WO 93/18171 describes the use of a GST promoter to inducibly express chalcone synthase (chs) and restore fertility to a male sterile plant made sterile by "knocking out" the endogenous chs genes.
  • a component of a system to genetically engineer male sterility is the availability of a promoter which specifically drives expression either in pollen or in tissue on which pollen production or development depends.
  • genes which are specifically or highly expressed in pollen and germinating pollen encode proteins that are likely to play a role in cell wall metabolism, for example, those having homology to genes encoding enzymes involved in pectin degradation; polygalacturonases (SM Brown et al.., Plant Cell (1990) 2: 263-274, SJ Tebbutt et al.., Plant Mol. Biol.
  • genes highly expresed in pollen include those that encode cytoskeletal proteins (I. Lopez et al.., Proc. Natl, Acad Sci USA 93: 7415-7420 (1996), HJ Rogers et al.., Plant J. 4: 875-882 (1993) and CJ Staiger et ⁇ /.., Plant J. 4: 631-641 (1993)), putative ascorbate oxidases, a Kunitz protein inhibitor and many others whose function cannot be inferred by homology to known genes. The temporal expression of such genes has been studied and many are found to be expressed late in microsporogenesis reaching a maximum in mature microsporocytes.
  • the applicants have isolated a further promoter which is specifically expressed only in pollen tissue.
  • the promoter is derived from a 'late' pollen expressed gene isolated from maize, ZmC5.
  • a recombinant nucleic acid sequence which comprises a promoter sequence of the ZmC5 gene in maize, or a variant or fragment thereof, which acts as a promoter in pollen.
  • fragment includes one or more regions of the basic sequence which retain promoter activity. Where the fragments comprise one or more regions, they may be joined together directly or they may be spaced apart by additional bases.
  • variant with reference to the present invention means any substitution of, variation of, modification of, replacement of, deletion of or the addition of one or more nucleotides from or to the nucleic acid sequence providing the resultant sequence exhibits pollen promoter expression.
  • the term also includes sequence that can substantially hybridise to the nucleic acid sequence.
  • ZmC5 gene refers to the gene of maize which encodes a 563 amino acid sequence as described herein.
  • a cDNA sequence encoding this sequence is defined in EMBL Y13285
  • the promoter sequence of the present invention is comprised within the clone deposited National Collection of Industrial and Marine Bacteria as NCIMB 40915 on 26 Jan 1998. This is a Sal I fragment derived as described hereinafter.
  • the promoter region lies within a region which consists of approximately 2kb of sequence upstream of the transcription start site of the ZmC5 gene of maize as shown in Figure 1 hereinafter. - 4 -
  • a recombinant nucleic acid sequence which comprises a promoter sequence comprising at least part of the DNA sequence as shown in Figure 5 or at least part of a sequence encoding a promoter which has substantially similar activity to the promoter encoded by Figure 5 or a variant or fragment thereof.
  • substantially similar activity includes DNA sequences which are complementary to and hybridise to the DNA of the present invention and which code for a promoter which acts in pollen.
  • hybridisation occurs at, or between, low and high stringency conditions.
  • low stringency conditions can be defined as 3 x SCC at ambient temperature of between about 60°C to about 65°C
  • high stringency conditions as 0.1 x SSC at about 65°C.
  • SSC is the name of a buffer of 0.15M NaCl, 0.015M trisodium citrate.
  • 3 x SSC is three times as strong as SSC and so on.
  • the pollen specific promoter of the present invention may be used to engineer male sterility by driving genes capable of interfering with pollen production or viability, or to express genes of interest specifically in pollen grains.
  • the promoter sequence may form part of an expression cassette in combination with genes whose expression in pollen, and particularly in late pollen production, may be desirable. These include genes which have an impact on pollen or pollen production. Such genes may be those involved in the control of male-fertility, genes which encode insecticidal toxins (which would then be targeted to insect species which feed on pollen), or genes which would enhance or modify the nutritional value of the pollen.
  • the promoter sequence could be used to drive expression of a selectable marker for use in pollen transformation. Examples of suitable selectable marker genes include antibiotic resistance genes such as kanamycin resistance gene, hygromycin resistance gene and the PAT resistance gene so as to enable stable transformants to be identified depending on the species e.g. corn, rice, wheat.
  • expression cassette which is synonymous with terms such as "DNA construct", “hybrid” and “conjugate” - includes an effect gene directly or indirectly attached to the regulator promoter, such as to form a cassette.
  • An example of an indirect attachment is the provision of a suitable spacer group such as an intron sequence intermediate the promoter and the target gene.
  • the DNA sequences may furthermore be on different vectors and are therefore not necessarily located on the same vector.
  • fused in relation to the present invention which includes direct or indirect attachment.
  • constructs also include plasmids and phage which are suitable for transforming a cell of interest.
  • expression cassettes of the present invention comprise a promoter sequence as described above which is arranged to control expression of a gene which is deleterious to pollen development, such as genes encoding barnase, adenine nucleotide translocator, mutant tubulins, T-urf (as claimed in WO 97/041 16) or trehalose phosphate phosphatase (TPP).

  • Ribozymes are RNA molecules capable of catalysing endonucleolytic cleavage reactions. They can catalyse reactions in trans and can be targeted to different sequences. They are therefore potential alternatives to antisense as a means of modulating gene expression. (Hasselhof and Gerlach (1988) Nature Vol 334: 585-591) or Wegener et al. (1994) Mol Gen Genet 245: (465-470) have demonstrated the generation of a trans -dominant mutation by expression of a ribozyme gene in plants. If required, the pollen specific promoter of the present invention may be used to control expression of the ribozymes such that they are specifically expressed in pollen.
  • Baulcombe (1997) describes a method of gene silencing in transgenic plants via the use of replicable viral RNA vectors (AmpliconsTM) which may also be useful as a means of knocking out expression of endogenous genes.
  • This method has the advantage that it produces a dominant mutation i.e. is scorable in the heterozygous state and knocks out all copies of a targeted gene and may also knock out isoforms.
  • This is a clear advantage in wheat which is hexaploid. Fertility could then be restored by using .an inducible promoter to drive the expression of a functional copy of the knocked out gene.
  • the pollen specific promoter as the elements of the AmpliconTM vector, expression of the gene would then take place specifically in the pollen.

  • a deleterious gene such as a restorer gene such as barstar in the case of barnase or TPS in the case of TPP, or a sequence which encodes a construct which is sense or antisense to a deleterious gene.
  • An alternative means of controlling expression of deleterious genes is to use operator sequences. Operator sequences such as lac, tet, 434 etc. may be inserted into promoter regions as described in WO 90/08830. Repressor molecules can then bind to these operator sequences and prevent transcription of the downstream gene, for example a gene deleterious to pollen development (Wilde et al. (1992) EMBO J. 1 1, 1251).

  • Transformation of a plant with such an expression system will result in the production of male sterile plants and methods of producing such a plant form a fourth aspect of the present invention.
  • Expression systems in accordance with this embodiment of the present invention wherein the gene is deleterious to viable pollen production, are useful in the production of hybrids but are especially useful when the male sterile line can be made homozygous.
  • "late" promoters such as the ZmC5 promoter described above, because the gene products are expressed late in pollen development, primary transformants and heterozygotes produce pollen which segregates 1 : 1 for sterility i.e. 50% of the pollen is fertile and so self pollination leading to non-hybrid seed may occur.
  • the inducible promoter In order to obtain a homozygous sterile plant, the inducible promoter must be switched on to drive expression of the restorer gene using the appropriate chemical such as ethanol in the case of the AlcA/R switch or safener for the GST switch. This then inactivates the deleterious gene, so allowing self pollination to occur in accordance with the model below.

  • FI seed is hybrid and heterozygous for sterility, meaning that 50% of the pollen from each plant is fertile.

  • transgenic plant GC5-7 gave a mean ratio of kanamycin resistant to kanamycin sensitive of 3.8: 1 indicative of a single integration site (expected ratio for one integration site is 3: 1, for two, 15: 1 and for three 63:1).
  • Extracts were made from a range of tissues including five stages of developing anthers, and analysed fluorimetrically fir GUS expression (Jefferson, supra.)
  • Figure 4(C) shows GUS activities from two transgenic plants. Only very low levels of expression are detectable in tissues other than developing and mature dehisced anthers. In tobacco the stage of bud development can be correlated with bud length (Tebutt et al.., supra.) but this is dependent on the growth conditions.
  • Bud-1 corresponds to microspores at mitosis/tetrad stage
  • Bud-2 uninucleate microspores
  • Bud-3 microspore mitosis Bud-4
  • early to mid-stage binucleate gametophyte Bud-5 mid- to late-stage binucleate gamteophyte.
  • Microspore stages as assessed by DAPI staining indicate that the timing of expression of the ZmC5 promoter in tobacco agrees well with its expression in maize based on the Northern data ( Figure3; Figure 4C).
  • Figure 3 Figure 4C
  • a plant transformation vector comprising the Ale A promoter driving expression of GUS .and a 35S CaMV promoter driving the expression of AlcR has been introduced into tobacco and tomato plants.
  • GUS expression may be studied in all tissues before and after induction with ethanol as a root drench.
  • GUS staining of tomato anthers and pollen shows clear expression of GUS after induction. The same result is expected from pollen from other species. - 18 -
  • the resulting plasmid was named pSK- C5-BB ⁇ ( Figure 6).
  • the entire cassette is then removed as an EcoRl- Notl fragment to a binary plant transformation vector pVB6.
  • the construct is then introduced into Agrobacterium Tumefaciens by the freeze-thaw method. Standard techniques are used to introduce the D ⁇ A into tobacco.
