摘要
为了利用Cecropin B(CB)抗菌肽基因提高柑橘对溃疡病的抗性,人工合成了两个含有信号肽的Cecropin B抗菌肽基因PR1aCB和AATCB。洋葱表皮瞬时表达分析表明,与非分泌型CB抗菌肽相比,PR1aCB和AATCB抗菌肽在细胞间隙中优势积累。进一步构建了CaMV 35S调控PR1aCB和AATCB基因的植物表达载体,转化塔罗科血橙(Citrus sinensis Osbeck)上胚轴,获得转基因植株。GUS组织化学染色、PCR和Southern blot分析表明外源基因已成功整合入柑橘基因组。Real-time PCR定量分析表明,抗菌肽基因在转基因植株中成功表达。柑橘叶片离体抗性分析表明,转PR1aCB和AATCB基因植株的抗性显著强于非转基因植株,其抗性水平与高抗品种‘南丰蜜橘’(C.succosa Hort.Ex Tan)和‘四季橘’(C.madurensis)相当。
A Citrus canker caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac) is a very destructive disease, which affects the citrus industry in most citrus-producing areas of the world. Here, we reported the production of transgenic Tarocco blood orange ( C. sinensis Osbeck) containing the synthetic antibacterial peptide genes and the evaluation of transgenie plants for resistance to Xac. Two new Cecropin B (CB) antibacterial peptide genes PRlaCB and AATCB with signal peptide (SP) sequence were synthesized by PCR. Transient RFP expression showed that fluorescence accumulation was observed predominantly in intercellular space surrounding the onion epidermal cells transformed with PRlaCB : rfp and AATCB : rfp genes compared with CB : rfp without SP, indicating the SPs could direct protein secretion to the apoplast. PRlaCB and AATCB gene cassettes driven by CaMV 35S were introduced into Tarocco blood orange by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Integration of transgenes into citrus genome was confirmed by GUS histochemical staining, PCR and Southern blot. Transcriptions of PRlaCB and AATCB genes were detected by Real-time quantitative PCR in transgenic plants. Transgenic leaves were in vitro inoculated with suspension of Xac. Compared to control (nontrangenic plants and pGN transgenic plants without antibacterial gene), ten transgenic lines showed significant increase in resistance to citrus canker. The levels of the resistance of the transgenic lines were equivalent to that of the highly resistant varieties: Nanfeng Miju (C. succosa Hort. Ex Tan) and Calamondin (C. madurensis) .
