A plant expression vector containing two expression cassettes for the Bt29K and API-B genes was constructed. These two insect-resistant genes were transferred into two cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum L.) varieties ( or lines) via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and nine homozygous transgenic cotton lines showing a mortality of 90.0% - 99.7% to cotton ballworm (Heliothis armigera) larvae and good agronomic traits were selected through six generations. Molecular biology analysis revealed that one or two copies of the insecticidal protein genes were integrated into the transgenic cotton genome and activated Cry1Ac and API-B protein expression was at a level of 0.17% and 0.09% of the total soluble protein in the transgenic cotton leaves, respectively. Comparison of the insect-resistance of the homozygous lines expressing the activated chimeric Cry1Ac and API-B with that expressing Cry1Ac only revealed that the insect-resistance of the former is apparently higher than the latter. These results also indicate that the strategy to construct a plant expression vector expressing two different insect-resistant genes reported here is reasonable.展开更多
AREB/ABFs转录因子家族基因主要参与干旱、高盐、低温等胁迫应答反应。为了获得具有较高耐盐水平的棉花新种质材料,通过农杆菌介导法将耐盐转录因子基因(GHABF4)导入陆地棉中棉35中,通过对转化植株的卡那霉素初步筛选及T1、T2、T3目的基...AREB/ABFs转录因子家族基因主要参与干旱、高盐、低温等胁迫应答反应。为了获得具有较高耐盐水平的棉花新种质材料,通过农杆菌介导法将耐盐转录因子基因(GHABF4)导入陆地棉中棉35中,通过对转化植株的卡那霉素初步筛选及T1、T2、T3目的基因PCR的分子检测,获得T3转基因棉花纯合系。通过盐胁迫试验对5个T3转基因棉花株系和非转基因棉花对照进行耐盐性分析。结果表明,在200 mmol/L Na Cl胁迫下,与非转基因对照相比,5个转基因棉花株系株高提高2.5~4.4 cm,地上部分的鲜质量增加3.6%~11.8%;且抗氧化物酶SOD、POD、CAT活性以及叶绿素含量提高。在盐胁迫条件下,转GHABF4基因棉花表现出优良的生长和生理优势,转GHABF4基因能够提高棉花的抗盐能力。展开更多
