Background art
- Pollen fertility is a problem in various aspects of agriculture and horticulture. For example, when breeding in cross breeding, a lot of labor is needed on emasculation (stamen removal) to avoid self-pollination. In the seed and seedling industry, traits without pollen fertility are required from the standpoint of commercial protection of varieties obtained by cross breeding. Due to such demands, a technique for controlling pollen fertility (pollination control) has been strongly demanded. Traditionally, for certain crops, cytoplasmic male sterility lines have been used for cross breeding with some success. However, cytoplasmic sterility traits often have undesired side effects such as reduced disease resistance, and are further problematic in that the traits are unstable and mass production of seeds is difficult. 'A method of reducing fertility by chemical treatment has been studied, but its safety evaluation and elucidation of the mechanism of action have been delayed, and it has not yet been put to practical use. Therefore, there is a need for excellent male sterilization technology using gene transfer technology.
- Pollen is a male gametophyte in seed plants. Pollen development that progresses in a state surrounded by anthers as a supportive tissue is caused by meiosis of microspore-forming cells (pollen mother cells) Immediately after the tetrad phase, the release phase of microspores from the tetrad, the mononuclear phase characterized by pollen cell expansion and vacuole formation, mitotic cells that undergo mitosis to differentiate into vegetative and germ cells It is divided into mitotic and subsequent binuclear phases. 'After these steps, the anthers eventually cleave and mature pollen grains are released. Therefore, microspores can be said to be one of the most suitable target tissues for artificial control to inhibit pollen development and lose pollen fertility.
- the present inventors have recently proposed PEThyZPT2-5, PEThyZPT3-K and m> EThyZPT4-1 (hereinafter abbreviated as ZPT2-5, ZPT3-1 and 4-14-1, respectively) as novel petunia-derived transcription factors. ),

Furthermore, the present inventors isolated the upstream regions from the ZPT3-1 and ZPT4-1 genomic genes, respectively, and examined the tissue specificity of the promoter activity. As a result, we found that promoter activity was expressed in tissue and stage-specific manner in microspores from the mononuclear stage to the binuclear stage.
